The AliExpress listing states that, I didn't include it in the post because it isn't relevant to most people.

Good price for a compliant USB 2 cable, see https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/244440 for proper (but more expensive) USB 3.1 cable.
I'm yet to see a USB Type-A charger that supports the USB Power Delivery specification, over the legacy BFSK-coded Vbus line:

So that means max 2.0A or 2.4A at 5V generally.

He is a software engineer for Google and has done a lot of testing/reviews on USB type C cables.
Yes
Not $7.31 delivered on their site, has to add $0.60 postage. Or is there a coupon code required?
My bad, I didn't see the postage costs, I have updated the price in the title.
