ALIEXPRESS Spammers
September 30, 2020

BE AWARE don't try this Chines app because they will take YOUR MONEY and later treat you in a very bad way. I have very bad experiences with this application. Order a fishing lure **************) with never arrived till date(SF*******166). (59 days passed). If you don't trust me Please check the reviews on TRUSTPILOT for this website. I would not recommend this website to anyone. I would rate 0 out of 10. BE AWARE if you have lots of money then its fine

I am a good customer $#*! these stupid nips everything they sell is rubbish, never again

Audio-HiFi Store, is a real good store if you want to have quality and old fashioned service!
I bought fuses also from other stores, the other stores where not much, audio-hifi is one of the best.

Bought beautiful faucet from Hozin Sanitary Store. Signed for buyer protection with ALIEXPRESS. Received faucet. Once vanity arrived a week later, installed faucet only to find out it leaks. Can't get replacement cartridge in US. TRIED TO CONTACT BOTH PARTIES TO NO AVAIL. ALIEXPRESS on line agent was useless and rude. Can't get in contact with seller. DONT FALL FOR THEIR B. S. They lie and will not help with any dispute.

I order a hockey jersey for the god son for xmas, 3 weeks before xmas, it was supposed to be a 7-10 delivery, it's been 5 weeks now and there are no sign of the jersey. I tried to contact them by phone, by email and thru the website, my attempts by phone or email to get a direct feedback of what was going on with the transaction HAVE ALL BEEN IGNORE and when trying thru the website you get a mediocre generic reply a week or more later. THERE ARE GOOD REASON WHY THIS SITE WON'T TAKE PAYPAL OR OTHER FORM OF PAYMENT WHERE THE BUYER IS PROTECTED, THEIR SERVICE IS UNRELLIABLE AT BEST AND BORDERLINE FRAUDULENT. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR PAY A BIT MORE AND ACTUALLY GET SOMETHING, STAY AWAY FROM THESE CLOWNS!

STAY AS FAR AWAYYYY!
October 27, 2023

Ordered my daughter's Shark Costume almost 30 days before Halloween. I came to find out the package did not get delivered because they had input an INCORRECT mailing address. When I requested a refund, they said to contact the shipping company - USPS. After more than 30 mins on the phone, they said they couldn't release my package or arrange local pickup because they couldn't verify my address so the package would need to be sent back to the shipper. AliExpress WILL NOT issue a refund, so I had to file a dispute with my credit card company. WILL NEVER EVER ORDER anything from AliEXPRESS AGAIN. Such TERRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE PERIOD!

Communicating with the seller was very prompt and efficient, however, getting someone from Aliexpress was impossible. Aliexpress debited my credit card, THEN cancelled the order! They then direct the buyer to a site which asks for, GET THIS: copies of my credit card, PASSPORT, and credit card statement in order to continue with the transaction. ARE THEY KIDDING! All in the name of "risk controlling". Firstly, it's a huge identity theft risk for us buyers, as well as being highly illegal to ask for such information. Unfortunately, I dropped ALL business with the seller, explaining I would never, and neither should they, go through a company like this.

I purchased dance shoes in January. I received a message the order was "complete" but hadn't received the product. It took me almost 2 weeks to get a response from them (going back and forth) and you WOULD NOT BELIEVE THEIR PATHETIC RESPONSES! If people ran businesses like this they'd all be bankrupt! First, they gave me a Canada Post number which was not in service. Than, they asked me to track the package with no tracking number... I finally got one. When I did, that too "did not exist". I explained it all to them... THEIR RESPONSE... ARE YOU READY? Call the Post Office and Complain - we sent the product so it's not our fault?!?! Are they for real? I paid for a product I didn't receive, with no valid tracking number, and they don't give a ****? Anyways, my credit card company reversed the charges but PLEASE BEWARE! They don't deserve your business

The seller's are unwilling to actually return/refund items, so they wiggle out of it and hide behind Aliexpress' useless dispute system. Everything is fine if your order arrives, is as you expect and works as intended but if not, then don't expect a refund or a return to be arranged. The dispute system is ridiculous and closes without you being able to do anything further. There is no way of communicating with Aliexpress or getting them to properly oversee the complaint. They have a stupid bot helper, which is just a terrible FAQ loop. The upshot is that the sellers just want your money without any customer service and Aliexpress couldn't care less about it. Sellers consistently break Trading Standards laws and think they are untouchable. Only place orders with Aliexpress where you are prepared for the item not turning up/being rubbish and you not being able to get any money back.

Aliexpress won't use Paypal which would at least offer buyers some protection in the event that orders are unsatisfactory.

Aliexpress also need to improve the review system, sellers are putting up fake positive feedback to make poor products look better. Don't trust the Aliexpress review system!

I have tried to order from Ali Express. Orders time out, and then I never receive them. No refund, as they keep telling me that the orders are coming, but they never do. DO NOT ORDER FROM ALIEXPRESS. TOTAL SCAM. Don't waste your money.

BUYER BE WARE!
November 2, 2014

BUYER BE WARE!
By far, the worst shopping experience I have ever had. After waiting for three weeks for my order, the wrong item arrived. I contacted the buyer and was told that the item I ordered and paid for will be shipped to me if I place an additional order. When I refused, I was asked to pay the freight fees of the item I already paid for. When I refused to do that as well the buyer informed me that the item will not be shipped to me unless I leave a positive feedback in advance. Yeh, right, and I am suppose to trust that…When I tried to complain to AliExpress, I encountered a bunch of useless automated systems and forms to fill out. End results: Shenzhen Weiyi Fashion Gift has my money and I am left with an item I can not use.
