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.

The amount of research and details in these videos is crazy. Thank you!

Buyer protection is kind of fishy.... If you order two of something and only receive one of two items, you'll NOT have any compensation. It happened me! The tracked parcel contained the package with only one item. Since they see that the order has been delivered, you can't do anything!
-
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.

I bought a yuji itadori cosplay costume from AliExpress from like 2 weeks ago estimated delivery was like march 12 and it came 2 weeks after very good quality!

Great video I am just setting up my Shopify and this was very helpful

Ali express items go missing in the post mainly because the WRITING on the PACKAGES is so TINY, and easily rubs off. They should definitely make the writing larger. It seems EVERYTHING is a money saving thing- even down to the amount of INK on packaging!

Awesome video!! Very good presenter! I got into hobby electronics and decided to give aliexpress a try as they offered the lowest cost on the myriad of resistors, diodes, capacitors, etc that I would need. I also order from the $1.99 sales on a weekly basis so I always have 2 or 3 orders being shipped at any given time. So far everything has exceeded my expectations.

Thank you for sharing. What are your thoughts on the services of Fulfillman and Cj?

This is genuinely high quality content. Presentation skills on point! Great work, man.

Thanks for this honest review. Too many YouTubers just create bandwagon content, but still do what they advise against behind the scenes.
-
As always, great information. Keep up the good work!

Love Steve! He's a great guy.

Aliexpress has worked for me for quite a while now. Sometimes there are glitches but overall all purchases arrived. I order mainly electronic circuits components. But I have ordered toys and other stuff too. Sometimes I do find better prices on ebay. This vid provides great info that I did not know.
-
Its a very insightful information. Thank you. Keep it up..
-
They send empty boxes for expensive products cause this makes better profit then actually sending the product. You got the box (empty) but you have it, so order delivered!
