I use my debitcard. I trust them. Based on their wiki[1], they look like a huge company(e.g. Amazon) that doesn't necessarily have incentive to be randomly ripping people off via CC fraud.
That said, word of caution though
- Unless you want to pay insane shipping, your order won't arrive in the USA for like 4 to 6 weeks.
- Clothing sizes are tricky. I usually go one size bigger than my US/UK size. For my wife who wears S or XS, I have to get her medium - sometimes even that's too small.
- Clothing quality varies especially for lady's clothing. Nearly always it looks fantastic, but if you dare put it in the washing machine it will disintegrate. Wash by hand or dryclean.
- Order electronics at your own peril. That's just rolling dice. I've seen Android phones & tablets from them. When I have a few extra hundred lying around, I'm gonna try getting a laptop - and I fully expect to get junk. But I've also seen orders fulfilled surprisingly well.
- Customer Support doesn't usually have english as first language.
- So far, out of like 20+ orders. They've gotten maybe 2 completely wrong... or I misread the product-details(some of those pages can be tricky)
Whats the likely hood of receiving fake products if ordering from this site? I've had it happen myself with Amazon 3rd party sellers, however this site being in china makes me even more wary.
I've ordered many things (small accessories, cellphone & tablet screens, a cheap Android tablet, etc) from both Aliexpress and Chinese stores on eBay and always got what was announced. The cellphone screen was damaged, and they sent me another one without having to ship the first back or show any proof of the damage.
Besides the long shipping times (1-2 months to my door), it's been more reliable than shopping locally.
Ahah, yeah, that happens. A good way to avoid it is to buy from sellers with plenty of feedback. That shop only has 20 reviews, and only one for that particular product, so I definitely would stay away.
