Have Anyone Bought Things from AliExpress?

Are they selling adequately good stuffs?
Checked their customer feedbacks but could not be certain as some said it was ok while the others claimed their products were fake.
Prices are so cheap and some even offer free shipping to Oz.
Considering such low prices, I would not demand something genuine or high quality; although they should at least resemble 65-80% of the pics.

Have anyone made any purchases from them?
Any replies would be appreciated.

    The are like Amazon marketplace, a middleman for small sellers in China selling to the west.

    As such it depends on how those suppliers act that counts - and they are all different.

    However the suppliers don't want to get chucked out, and there is an effective escrow/guarantee service - so provided you don't expect the earth, it will usually work out OK for you.

    i bought a low valued item that i couldn't find on ebay using aliexpress. shipping was slower (didn't ship for a couple of weeks) but it turned up in the end.

    I've bought multiple items from aliexpress. Generally speaking the items will turn up, on the rare occasion (like 1 in all 50 of my purchases), items haven't turned up. When this happened i filed a dispute against the seller, and got my money back. I suggest not going for the excessively cheap items on this website, what you pay is literally what you get and if it's too cheap it's too good to be true.

  • only bought 2. Got 1 and lost 1.
