“It is a complete scam. There is no customer service and they do not provide you a refund when the products don't arrive.”

“Terrible place to buy. Half of their sellers are fraudulent, and if you don't receive products, or products are faulty, you are out of luck. They will give you a runaround, dispute buttons would hidden, and disputes closed without refund or explanations. Just avoid, it is third world class e-business.”

“aliexpress business plan: 1) come up with a random name with lots of numbers 2) copy images of other merchants storefront to create your imaginary storefront 3) when orders come in, send fake tracking information 4) operate under the impression that the buyer will not: a) notice the tracking information is fake b) file a dispute within the "protection period" c) create a paper trail of screen shots showing evidence of fraud d) receive a full or partial refund if disputed 5) if the buyer does file a dispute, string them along by increasing the protection period indefinitely, send them more fake tracking information, reply with "copy pasta" responses, or simply don't reply at all 6) 100% profit as there is no need to have inventory, customer service, & or a physical location 7) business(scam) can be run from anywhere, with a time investment of only a couple hours a week, rinse & repeat the aforementioned, until aliexpress reputation is irreparably damaged, & folds under consumer pressure”

“This seller is a scammer: "China NO.2 LCD Store" They show in pics they sell original Samsung display, but they don't. They sell fake and broken display. Seller will always delete your dispute, and only ask you to delete the dispute, give him 5 stars review and after that he will send you money. DON'T TRUST HIM, NEVER CANCEL A DISPUTE, THIS SELLER IS A SCAMMER”

“Ali Express is a website where it is "Buy at your own risk !" I have been buying products from Ali Express for years and if I can add as a reseller I buy from other sites as well The facts are - -Sellers have descriptions/images of a product then send you something else. (The Chinese or whoever seem to have a different approach to advertising products they sell ) -Products you buy on Ali Express might be cheaper than elsewhere (e.g local) BUT on Aliexpress warranty does Not exist! -Products you buy might be cheaper than elsewhere BUT Returns ,free returns(no such thing) and warranty is irrelevant if the buyer pays all postage fees -if it's return to the seller or /and repost by the seller. -Products you buy might be cheaper than elsewhere BUT it takes depends to what country 1-3 months to receive the product ( Covid or no Covid ) -Products you buy might be cheaper than elsewhere BUT you might not receive the purchased item ! -Dispute claim - Not always in the buyers favour even if the buyer is right ! Sellers and the people from Ali express think that "Buyers Protection" is -buyers protection also as the sellers protection and also as a post service protection . Summary : For many years Ali Express has had an unprofessional work practice and it's not getting any better , even though they have a dispute process Aliexpress needs to realise that buyers are on their site to buy products and NOT to open disputes !!”

“Dont buy from Ali express..they have almost zero customer service capability if anything goes wrong..only an automated on line service that just ends up at the point you came in on. The one quite expensive item shows as being delivered/finished but its not correct the supplier has provided 2 different tracking numbers but in both cases the delivery company (DHL) says they have never received the goods...its a scam.. ..give out false tracking data and then hope it will just go away.. I ordered a total of 4 items and only one of them arrived about 2 months later..the problem is that there is just no one to talk or chat to about it..no question amazon is 1000% better than ali express..at least you have some chance to resolve an issue but not with ali express..their system is designed to frustrate you so you just give up..”

“The item not delivered even after 65 days. Dispute in progress for 35 days now. Everytime I ask for an update , they send an email asking to wait for 5 more days. So I get 4-5 emails already asking to wait for 5 more days . It’s a joke. If you are thinking of buying anything from them. STAY AWAY.. 90% chance is that you are going to loss money. But if you are lucky enough you may fall in other 10% and get a low quality product.”

“There are others sites like "Wish" to buy low cost Chinese products better than Aliexpress. The service of the site is really bad. The vendors in the site will manipulate the system trying to get long time to send your order. Chinese tracking system is very confusing, but they make it even worse in this site to lie about the real status of your order. Out of 10 orders I made; 1 was ok, 2 were incomplete, 1 the item was different and very poor quality, 4 disputed and eventually (2-3 months) got refunded, one waiting for refund, and 1 the system says it is in NY now for one week. I bought a group of cheap items to test the site. Don't waste your time and money...”

“Glad I found these honest reviews before I let my son get duped into selling on behalf of Ali Express, thanks to some douche on Tik Toc that's luring kids into easy money by doing this. Red Flags started going up when he asked me if he could get a bank account in his name....”

“WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! They lie all the way to the bank, they even follow up with more lies to the point of saying they will refund. They didn't. Pointless and yet another example of what's wrong with the world.”

“out of 5 orders, I've only received 1 in the past 4 months. from my experience, the so called merchants drag their feet with tracking information, some of it contrived (it will state may take 5 days to update tracking information for 30+ days). once the item "supposedly" ships, you get a weekly/monthly update that the parcel has moved from sorting center to sorting center. I believe items are never shipped (or more than likely don't exist), & the "sellers" work under the impression/hope that the buyer will not file a dispute during the protection period, hence they receive money through insanely long wait times if the buyer drops the ball after the "protection" period expires. I gave aliexpress a shot, as their pricing is more reasonable, than paying the ebay tax for the same exact items (chinese middleman insane markups); ebay has a far better track record; that said, when dealing with overseas merchants, it's a crapshoot if the person/organization your dealing with is legitimate. also, reviews on the site are questionable, moreover "padded" to artificially inflate store ratings to inspire buyer confidence. it would be in aliexpress best interest to remove sellers with numerous disputes, granted they'll (the scam merchant) will more than likely rename, & resume listing imaginary items on their imaginary store; at least that will make it harder for them to rip people off.”
