AliExpress

Has any of you guys ever bought something from AliExpress? I like that they are far cheaper than eBay, and they also have a wider variety of sex toys and gear (among other stuff). Do you trust it?

No Aliexpress does not accept paypal
How they work is They are a middle man
You buy product from a vendor, they hold on to the money until you confirm receiving it.
If you have issues with the seller or the product you can file a complaint.I used them quite a few times for electronics
Some were great and a good deal.
Some weren't so great.The reason I stopped using them is that most of the sellers ship through the cheapest way they can get away with.
Takes months before you get your stuff.Bottom line
Research your product before you buy. There's more than likely 50 sellers who sell the same thing.
Don't go for the free shipping unless you want your stuff in 10 weeks.
Use a reputable mail system. -
I bought video games from them before yes.
Shipping took quite a while though as they are all wholesalers from India, China, Japan, Korea etc.

As of right now, I have over 130 orders (most of them for me, but a few for a friend who doesn't have a credit card) from AliExpress over the last two years.
I've had nothing but positive experience with them. A couple of items got lost in the mail (tee strainer, knockoff Thinking Putty, tiny aluminum pill bottle) but I got a refund on those immediately. I've bought over 15 phone cases and none were more than $2 with free shipping. I honestly cannot recommend AliExpress enough.What I would steer clear off are clothes. Never buy clothes! Not only are the sizes always 2 or 3 sizes smaller than they claim, the fabric is always super cheap and unpleasant to wear.
As far as sex toys go, I've bought one butt plug and the quality is amazing. Far better than the $50 Doc Johnson dildo that I bought from some legit adult website.
The only issue with AliExpress is, the shipping takes forever. Literally. I've had some luck when I got my items in 2-3 weeks, but on average I wait at least 5-6 weeks, pretty sure I waited almost 3 months once as well. But since shipping is free (I only pick free shipping) I'm not gonna complain about that.

@randome wow this is a really good review, I never thought someone would recommend it so much!
As for shipping, I live in the middle of Europe and shipping takes a long time anyways. Like, even if I buy something from the UK it will arrive in 2 weeks. So, I'm kinda used to that. I will give Ali a try soon, they seem to have way better deals and also a wider variety! ;D
