AliExpress?

[cj121]

Has anyone any experience of purchasing from Ali Express? I'm looking at a small item, sub $10 and got to the payment part and my feet got cold

Any insight is helpful, thanks.

Have used them. Takes a while to get here but all good. I do believe they're pet of Alibaba, an absolute behemoth.

I have used them before. I bought a whole load of watercooling fitting for my new computer. They were very good on telling me where my order was and making me feel confident that it would turn up! Each fitting was about ?4-5 each and I ordered about 30 of them.

For my order there was a middle man style payment. You make the order with Ali-express and they then sort it out with the manufacturer. If anything is wrong, they give you your money straight back. My friend used it for one of those new segway things, it turned up with a crack in it and they instantly refunded him after seeing images.

Thanks lads. I just held back for some reason. It wasn't the cost, more the process and payment processing as I've not used AliPay before.

I've used them a couple of times [MENTION=201]cj121[/MENTION]. Like others have said, the items can take a while to arrive ( 2-3 weeks) But, Ali-express come under the umbrella of Alibaba, who are huge in the Asia region.

bought a couple of lighters a couple of weeks ago, arrived no problem. This is the only stuff I have bought so far. I tried buying the same stuff from Chinese sellers on ebay and never got them and had to get a refund after a month. So I was a bit sceptical, but no problem this time.
