Hey Ive been buying with aliexpress and Id say 98 percent of the time Im delighted with my purchases. Ive bought Boots, makeup jewellery and even did my own designs and got them printed on a coat or jacket or hoodie and they came out amazing. I have had a few problems along the way but mostly got my money back. Once in a while they dont give your money back but its so cheap I dont mind. this is a great video thanks suzy

I have bought a lot of stuff on both Ebay and Aliexpress. Ebay has better support when i receive junk/defective products. Ebay is also faster in handling the dispute. I have multiple orders on AE that was defective, and i provided evidence, but they did not agree that it was defective. So i did not get my money back. You are not 100% safe on AE. Also the chat robot on AE is a joke.

Ditto. They were good at first, but I have lost the last few "not as described" disputes, or they wanted me to return the item to china, at several times what I paid for the item. The vast majority of sellers are honest, but a significant percentage are not. I will not order from them anymore. ebay may cost more, but they have always honored my returns, in the very few times I have had to do that.

As others have pointed out, using aliexpress isn't the safest option & I would recommend avoiding large cost purchases if possible. If you are going to buy something expensive I would recommend creating a burner account & use a CC or something with the ability to chargeback far into the future. Aliexpress will ban your account if you do a chargeback, but they almost always side w/ the seller in large cost disputes.

One fact about aliexpress: discounts are BS. whenever there is a discount on literally ANY product, The shipping price is all of the sudden extremely high as if not to compensate for the discount. Even in general when there is no discounts, you will find some products which are suspiciously cheap, and only when you click on it you find the shipping fee skyrocket. It’s extremely annoying.

Not really to be fair. I think it matters on the product. Free shipping and a discount has happened on there towards some purchases I made. Look in the filters to change the prefrences and buy an item. You I feel probably bought an item that was towards what you wanted but it didn't have what you needed upon discount and shipping. That was your choice. So now the money you paid them upon your purchase is your fault cause you didn't read. Be smart, read carefully and buy if it suits how much you have to pay.

@@ThatGirl-tg7wd If you never bought anything from AliExpress. Then you haven't had many experience with them as a store. However doing some research upon what you want is important and to find recommendations. Read the description and reviews before making a purchase too. If you don't do these thing's first then yes you will probably be scammed however that is your fault for trusting those individual sellers. I have had my stuff shipped...no defects nor returns made so far. No issues. So I wouldn't say it is a 100% scam. Just gotta be cautious and intelligent on what you should make purchases on.

I have been using AE for several years now. Its a mixed bag. I recommend communicating with the seller before purchase - ask questions and clarify what the product is. Bad sellers will either not respond or not provide full info. The good sellers on the other hand usually respond quickly and provide full info. I can spot a good seller right away. There are many good deals - you need to know how to find them and how to spot poor / junky products to stay away from.

That's actually a pretty good advice. I also noticed that whenever I had to write to someone and they responded fast and with all the info, they were good and their item was good if it arrived. If not, they'd refund with 0 questions asked. Those who refuse to answer anything, won't refund when their item never arrives or is defective/not what was described

Very good, very comprehensive video. I would disagree with the 100% safe statement. It may be very safe, but there are some issues. First of all, it takes sometimes 2 months for you to get your order in the states, due to the slow shipping speed, which isn't really a complaint for me by itself. But the problem is that sometimes the established time for returns has nearly or already elapsed by the time you get it. I had a problem with some missing pieces and, I tried to deal with the seller, who said he was mailing them to me right away, but those parts never showed up, and, while waiting for them, the time for me to report him or give him a negative review had elapsed, nor could I just request a refund because we were 4 months out by that point. I had to buy the parts to finish the item on my own.

Been shopping a lot, but again, it’s about using your gut feelings. Even when buying simple stuff, I seldom goes for the lowest bid, but try lo pick something in between and has at least “on paper”, some thumbs up. Only been ripped off once and for a cheap product that was of great importance though. The seller sent me the absolute wrong item even though I had checked and confirmed beforehand what I wanted. Wrote a sour comment that was deleted by the seller and it was too late to file a complaint and not much money. I also had ordered some expensive goods that never arrived and got the message “on its way”, until it was obvious it wasn’t. AliX customer service was very helpful and I got my money back, even though the seller had refused to take any actions. Anyhow, this video is very helpful, especially for those doing their first purchases from Chian (a China made electronic component had the text “Made In Chian” - that sounds very reassuring …. 😊).

I have ordered craft supplies like stamps and metal dies and been very happy. I received 1 stamp set with a few things spelled incorrectly but that was my mistake because the photo was correctly showing the misspelled words and I didn’t catch it. I now pay more attention. If I contacted the seller they probably would have refunded me given the order size but it was only a few dollars and I could still use some of them. A few dies haven’t cut perfectly or had a little imperfection but again the cost of the item was negligible so I didn’t worry about it. I’ve also ordered croc jibbitz and been extremely happy with them. Other items such as cheap necklaces and earrings for my teen daughter who loses them easily, sleep masks, small appliance cord keepers etc have all been great purchases. I would not buy anything I needed to last very long or wanted a quality product. Shipping to WA is generally 2-3 weeks with my longest being 6 but that was an anomaly. I definitely recommend trying them. Order 1-2 things with free shipping and see what you think. Then order more if it works out.

I bought some SCD40 modules from Aliexpress and they arrived quickly, fine, and they worked, that so I just went on with the project, which was a parttime thing. After a couple of months, I picked it up again and let the module run stably for some weeks and noticed it was drifting slowly upwards in co2 measurements without any external cause. I tried to add another module, which started out like the first, but followed about the same slope of climb. I tried to switch to low power mode, measuring co2 only twice per minute, which reversed the drift to negative - for both parts. I even tried a third one, bought from another seller, same result. I talked to people online and explained it and was reassured that this was not the correct behaviour. There's a clause in the original manual about recalibrating every week, but that's for very precise measurements. This was around 50-100ppm or more per day. So - it was impossible to find the error before the timeout for the purchases, which ended up at $150 or so.

To turn off the auto-calibrate mode, all you need to do is send a 0x0000 command to the 0x2416 I2C register with a 0x81 check byte. You can save this setting using a 0x3615 I2C command.

Their customer service flip flops and send you in circles. I ordered two TECH reels for my tape deck. The tracking was poor and unclear. It took over 4 weeks for it to arrive. 😢The package was reported delivered and I never received it. The merchandise cost over $50.00. I wasn’t reimbursed for the loss shipment after the claim was filed. They kept running me in circles until they said the time was up to file a claim. The shipping department is very shady..

Here is a breakdown on AliExpress, in short no it is not safe but that is relative. Most sellers are honest but a good percentage of them are not. And that wouldn't be so bad if the site made any effort to clean up their act, but they do not. They actually assist these dishonest sellers with their unfair actions and policies. For example as this video states they have a policy that says "if you get sent the wrong item or your order doesn't arrive you will get a full refund", but what they don't tell you is most of the time they will ask you to send it back first. Now being China has subsidized shipping and every other country does not, it will almost always cost you more to send it back than it cost you to buy it in the first place. This will essentially enable the seller to rip you off because no one is stupid enough to send something back when sending it back costs more than the order did. I was scammed 3 times recently (in the last month) this way, with two products that were not what they advertised in the ad and one that arrived broken. One item cost me just over $4 and was going to cost me over $11 to send it back, the second item cost me just over $5 and was going to cost me over $14 to send it back, the third item cost me $16 and it was going to cost me well over $20 to send it back. So I ended up eating the loss on all 3 items. While it was in the dispute stage I went on their chat everyday to complain that this was a scam and it was a scam the site itself sets up. They did nothing at all. They are well aware of it and still do nothing about it, which tells me it is intentional fraud and not some kind of a innocent loophole the sellers found a way to exploit. The site makes enough money with their shady policies in place that they have no intention of clearing up their act, eventually the word will get out and they will have to adjust or go out of business but for now they know they don't have to do anything but rake in the dollars. So first don't believe anything the site claims, because they lie and mislead to assist the scammers. And don't trust the sellers at all, most are honest but the many scammers on the site offset the savings gained from shopping with the honest sellers. The bad sellers will intentionally send you the wrong or broken items knowing you won't send them back and you will eat the loss. Again, this would be more tolerable if the site made any effort to get rid of these types of sellers or regulate them to clean up their business, but they do not, they actually do everything they can to help the scammers so the scammers know they can operate with impunity. If you stay in contact with the seller through the dispute phase they will actually laugh at you while you try to scramble to find justice. They know their scams are secured by the site itself and that they have nothing to fear. Sure the site will say they are trying to rid themselves of these sellers but they actually do nothing, it is just empty words to pacify the stupid people who will believe them. That is the most frustrating part for me being a westerner, our society makes an effort to get rid of the thieves but China actually supports them, which is evident with their systemic intellectual property theft. Yet again I would like to be able to say this is all on those dishonest sellers but it is not, this is almost entirely on the site itself because they set up this scam and enforce it with their shady policies. I would say that if you are causally shopping and not flipping, statistically overall it works out to be about the same cost as buying on amazon, in that what you will save with the orders from honest sellers on AliExpress will be offset by the scams. But here is the thing you need to consider about shopping on AliExpress, if you need an item right away, there is a good chance you won't get it at all or it won't be what you ordered, and the frustration just isn't worth it. You might end up breaking even compared to shopping on amazon in money terms but not in time terms. If you do enough shopping on both sites you will see the same items being sold on Amazon as are being sold on AliExpress and this is because many of the sellers on Amazon buy from AliExpress then jack up the prices. My guess is they figure the losses they take can be more than made up for with the much higher prices they sell the same stuff for on Amazon. Plus they only have to take the loss a couple of times (maybe) until they find an honest seller of the products they want to flip. Because they sell the same stuff over and over again they know who they can trust in a very short period of time and their losses are minimal compared to their gains. You won't be in that situation if you are only buying one time or occasionally and that puts you at risk. So essentially you are going to pay more on amazon for the same product but you won't have to endure the looses you would have faced on AliExpress to get those products. You are essentially paying a scammer either way though, either you pay the scammers who sell cheap Chinese crap on amazon for far higher prices than it sells for on AliExpress or you run the gauntlet of scammers on AliExpress to try and find the honest sellers that are cheaper. My estimate is it is about even, or maybe slightly in favour of AliExpress once you know all the scams. But for a one time purchase when you need the item within a certain time frame I would go with Amazon, the extra you pay is for the comfort of knowing you will get it and it will be as described.

I have bought a phone + shipment lately for 365$ in total. The seller did not tell me that i had to pay for tariffs or i rather say tax. (Considering, this doesnt make any sense). I thought that tax was a part of order payment. The package arrived after getting told (by phone) that it was located and held at customs. (Airport) I have got told if i want the package, i have to pay for 50$ shipment (REALLY) and 100$ tariff. Wait a minute. I have already paid for shipment that costs 45$, why do i have to pay for another one? What about this thing being called tarrif? He did not inform me about that at all. When i asked if i received my package, would i pay for something else (such as another tax or tariff, yes or no? He did not give straight answer, rather than vague comments continuously.

@@MickH60 Relax champ. Making assumptions not knowing a person, that's rich. You'd be surprised to know I've been using Alibaba/AliExpress since 2011 and started a side business via Alibaba. I advocate the service and have had refunds and what not for small items. There has been a couple of occasions where as a buyer I got stooges for products that did not meet description with screen shots but still copped out of pocket expenses. The last significant thing I bought was a $200 tablet, that DID NOT GET SENT with tracking showing enroute for months, that was provided by the seller themselves, however Ali did not have a bar of the evidence that the seller provided themselves, I tried their various escalations and appeals to no avail, and i tried seeking a resolution with PayPal who I thought would be more reasonable with buyer protection. Ultimately stooged. This demonstrated without a doubt that one, you'll deal with bots, two, incompetence when it matters. Jurt because you've had an unblemished record of experience doesn't mean others don't. When you face the same challenges, you'll quickly learn you live in a mindset bubble.

@@MickH60 Listen champ. If you don't know someone, don't make assumptions. I've used Ali since 2011. Ran a business off Alibaba itself as a wholesaler since that time. The recent purchase never arrived according to the sellers tracking THEY provided, which was used as evidence and despite passing through the Ali bots to a mediator, the seller still won out despite their OWN evidence the product never shipped. I referred to the shipping service who said it was highly suspect. I even engaged PayPal for mediation and got knocked back. Despite the evidence. Not everyone has your better experience but this doesn't discount someone else's horrible one. I use Temu now more so, and I drive a Chinese car and support their industry and innovations.

As someone who has worked with chinese-supplied imported goods, specifically electronics, I would like to ensure it is known: Chinese products, especially electronics, are NOT necessarily crap or below your european average. Their reputation does not reflect the big picture. There are many rigorously-made components and circuitry using those components which are made and supplied in China and abroad. However, because many components and products are just made to be cheap and not actually good, they've gotten their current reputation. Most cheaply made products are made in China, not anywhwre else, so it would be evident that good quality products would be buried in the sea of crap that ensues. Bottom line: chinese products CAN be top-of-the-line quality, but unreasonably cheap options are mostly made in China as well and so they're generally considered bad. Do your research and don't trust your prejudice.

yeah no.. No full refund or any refund at all.. They always want you to ship it back, and most of the time shipping it back will cost 10 times the original price and some products(especially lithium) aren't even allowed to ship to China. Right now I have a problem with a defective device.. That cost about 70 USD.. I opened a dispute and aliexpress says to return the item for full refund, if I don't the refund is zero USD. I've contacted the local shipping company and the shipping is around 100USD but because the item has a lithium battery in it It is not allowed to ship to China from my country (outside US). So I just lost 70USD. I don't have a credit card, in my country almost nobody has a creditcard. So I paid by bank(In Europe we have iDeal) as I always do. Aliexpress is a "company" that backups the shops 100% and they don't care about costumers at all. They allow scammers and liars, even if you proof they scammed you Aliexpress doesn't care and will always end the dispute in favour of the seller. I'm not a "newbee" on Aliexpress, I've been ordering for more than 5 years and have bought for 10,000s of dollars from Aliexpress. The bad reputation is legit, they are bad...

I replaced parts, the pumps, the motherboard n housing. And I resealed everything with silicone. So spent another 500 roughly upgrading it before something head a chance to fail. All in all. You can see where they cut corners with manufacturing. And where they did with parts. But all in all. I'm satisfied

Yea but how long it took for u to get a refund because I haven't received mines yet after the seller didn't even deliver my order. Well she delivered it to the wrong address and told me to do a Refund because she wasn't delivering it again? Like really. That was my daughter refrigerator for her school dorm room and now she still has nothing and no money to buy another one right now until she gets the refund for the first one? So how long for a refund?

He says it's like eBay, but it's not a eBay is an auction site primarily where people bid on products. Ali express is more in tune with Amazon or various vendors post their items for sale and the site facilitates the purchases.

I’ve been buying from AliExpress for the last couple of months. I’ve had one purchase that was faulty on arrival. I sent pictures and was refunded in minutes. I was amazed. Tbh because the purchase was so cheap I thought I’d get nothing, but was pleasantly surprised.

I have been buying from Aliexpress for a while, with no issues until March 2023. I ordered, and I still have not received my items, and it is now July 2023. The items were shipped and arrived in my town, but then my items were sent from the post office to a third party here on my town, and it's just sitting there. I tried calling the third party multiple times with no answer. I have not ordered from them again because I don't want my items shipped to a third party again. I would have rather picked up my items from the post office myself. It's rediculous!

Electronics:if you buy products form brands that get reviewed online, you have an idea what you're getting. The top (asian) brands often have their own Aliexpress shop. I got several pairs of wireless earphones (some of them already sell in Europe!) and various bits of bluetooth/cables stuff. Quality followed the price.

Bought an item for $150 and wasn't what I wanted. Requested a return and refund and was provided a pre-paid return label. A few hours after I dropped it off at the post office, I was board and checked the tracking and it said "Fraudulant postage" which means the postal service will confiscate it which I confirmed this when I went back to the post office and they would not give me the package back. Now I'm out of the item and the seller is telling me AliExpress is the one who provided the pre-paid return label so we will have to wait on their decision. Never had this issue with eBay.

Please if you respect your time and money do not order from AliExpress it is not worth your nerves and your precious time, now they are not respecting their customers anymore. I am not buying anymore from them. Because it is a filthy business without any concern about our customer rights. I ordered one item from them but they didn't send it to me or send it but not to the right address and now they just ignore me every time I text them or just write to me that the item just already sent and it's my problem and concern that I didn't received this item which completely a lie from their part and not my responsibility apparently they send the item to other neighboring country and by their understanding it is my mistake. So as I understand we don't have any customer rights we are just plainly people who have money and are vulnerable and they are just using us, scamming us because it is convenient to do this with us their customers.

Awesome video! I have bought from aliexpress before the company upgraded. I had a good experience with their business even back then. Mad respect for your culture. You are one of the most unified, peaceable, honorable and lethal blood lines. I love working with your culture. One of the hardest working people in the world. I can't wait for God to bring you forward ❤️

I bought alot of stuff including a battery on March 8 I received everything the same month except the battery. The whole time I wasn't able to track the battery then I contacted the seller he gave me a whole different tracking number different from the one on alixpress and a different websites since that day(march 27) till this moment it's only being showing the same thing (arrived at facility) I've reported and complained several time I got frustrated. The seller told me I won't be able to tell it's gotten to my post office and I won't receive any email or call I just have to go to the post office to make inquiry. Long story short it's been almost 2 months I just left the post office 30 ago still nothing. I guess I got scammed

Before buy anything from anywhere, do your bloody homework! Don't be lazy, read reviews, watch KZfaq reviews, and try to buy real bang for the buck things. In this case you won't be disappointed. There are plenty good quality domestic Chinese brands, manufacturers, for example Convoy for flashlights, many quality Chinese watch micro brands (San Martin, Baltany, Steeldive, Addiesdive just to name some, but there are a lot), etc. Yes, I think I may not go after a questionable SSD drive which is possible counterfeited, or after a no name one, but simple things - aluminum pill boxes, titanium tableware, etc - or well know brands (see above mentioned ones) you hardly can go wrong.
