Have been using AliExpress for couple…

Have been using AliExpress for couple months now and find their suppliers, products and service excellent, including an occasion when I decided what I had ordered wasn't exactly what I wanted and the return process was extremely easy.

Good prices for some items.

Some very good original items for sale and at great prices. Some items require an extra postage cost, eg cosmetics.
Difficulty viewing all items in an order.
Sometimes items in an order are posted separately. Also had difficulty returning an item that was not as described.

Horrible customer service and order handling

Was offered a promotional "buy 1 item for free + 1 item at a discount" so I proceeded to pick out my items and everything seemed fine. I ordered through Paypal. Receive confirmation on Aliexpress that order was processing and completed. Went back to order page and the items were still listed as not paid for yet and that I had to order both together (which I thought I had done - just following their instructions). No paypal confirmation or record of purchase, so obviously was not successful.

Attempted 2 more times and ended up back at the same place with the order saying completed, but also saying not paid for. Contacted support. Was told this sometimes happens and that I should add the items to my cart again and checkout, implying it was somehow my fault, then offered me a coupon which sent me to a 404 - page not found. Next day I get 4 different emails from support. One email telling me the order was fine and went through, another saying the order was closed due to not paying on time, another one saying I'd be refunded. Absolutely ridiculous. I checked the order page again. It clearly shows each item paid for by Paypal while on the same page saying that the orders were cancelled for failure to pay. Still no record of any payment made in Paypal. WTF. I sent a final complaint by email, with all the screenshots and information I collected as proof and have not heard back.

The gaslighting, the contradictions, no attempt to make things right... NOPE... I'll take my business elsewhere. Seeing these other reviews is even more proof to me that they cannot be trusted to so much as handle a simple email. I'll be deleting my account. I'm not sharing the order numbers here in this review because it doesn't even matter anymore. You have no intention of resolving mine or anyone else's issues.

By the way, when you have over 180,000 reviews with an overall score of 2.0, the problem isn't your customers, it's you. THAT can't be resolved with tone-deaf AI generated responses on every review made.

Update: And there it is, the canned reply to my review. Too late... I deleted my account and have no interest in dealing with you. You were given multiple chances. I was lucky. In the end, you didn't get my money. I'm more angry now seeing what other people are going through. Forget about me. Take care of these people who have lost money, time and sanity seeking REAL resolutions.

Update 2: They clearly didn't even read the review. I deleted my account, and they continue to send me promotional messages and more of the same AI generated crap, even after unsubscribing from their emails and telling them to stop emailing me. What is wrong with these people? I've never seen anything like it.

If you're still considering buying from them... in 2022, the Office of the United States Trade Representative added AliExpress to its list of Notorious Markets for Counterfeiting and Piracy.

They will take and keep your money and leave you with nothing

Placed an order (first time user) and paid for it via PayPal. PayPal acknowledged order, provided a transaction ID and Invoice ID and the money was debited. No order was recorded in my AliExpress account, I left it a few days assuming that the system would catch up but it didn't. First tried to use the almost unusable chat to find out what had gone on and subsequently very slow email. In all cases day after day they just sent a screenshot of the find account button even though I had access to my account. After a week of this I raised a PayPal case and I await to see if my money is returned. I recommend avoiding this site despite the enticing prices, I have concluded based on the lack of customer support that the operation is a borderline scam.

AliExpress support is a joke! Lies, endless loops, and zero help

AliExpress support is a joke! Lies, endless loops, and zero help!!
AliExpress support doesn't do its job at all! They just "feed you promises" to escalate your case, but nobody actually transfers anything. It is an endless loop of identical, robotic auto-responses that only work in one direction: "send us this, send us that".
My tablet is a confirmed counterfeit (verified by AIDA64). AliExpress even admitted it is fake! I have already uploaded all possible video and photo evidence.
Now they demand that I pay my own money to ship it back to China. First of all, I will not pay a single cent to return a scammer's counterfeit. Secondly, it is legally impossible: our local postal services have strict bans on shipping lithium batteries abroad. I already provided official refusal documents from several carriers!
I do not want your useless coupons. I demand my money back for this fake item. Stop this endless game and issue my refund! I absolutely refuse to accept any of your useless discount coupons—I demand a full monetary refund to my card immediately, strictly following your own I absolutely refuse to accept any of your useless discount coupons—I demand a full monetary refund to my card immediately, strictly following your own policy. #1120107362471902
UPD: Stop lying! Your email support is a total dead end and working as a one-way street. It does NOT accept any incoming replies from me! I cannot answer your emails because your system blocks it. Stop trying to hide from the public view. You already have all my videos, photos, and official carrier bans. Raise the full file and issue my monetary refund here, do not send me back to your broken email loop!

SCAM SCAM SCAM Don't ever think your going to get your return postage back. They ask you for proof of shipping several times then tell you that the documentation is insufficient. Absolute thieves.

Speedy free delivery.

They send the order quickly and they arrive safely. I have never lost anything in the mail and parcels arrive in good condition. My only gripe has been sizing for dog raincoats. None of which have been big enough. I know I can return for a refund, but cannot be bothered as it’s a hassle. As the products are cheap, I give them to friend if they don’t suit my dog.

You never get what U ordered and pieces are missing, or they don't work. Or they are unhealthy or dangerous.
Delete the app and go back to eBay like me .
Even the email adres is not real. And can never get a human on a phone. Terrible place to buy.

I am very satisfied with everything I order from AliExpress. The packaging is always great, usually in bubble wrap bags. I also love that you can earn shopping credits by playing easy games.
