How to order, pay or return the goods?
In order to start shopping on Aliexpress you need to register. Registration is quite simple and does not require any special data. You must specify your real e-mail, because through it you will need to confirm the registration and subsequently notifications from the site will be sent to it.
Next, the profile is filled. It indicates data: name, address, postcode and phone number. It is better to know in advance which mail serves the address. And if there is no lock on your home mailbox or it doesn’t close at all, then it’s better to resolve this issue. Recently, small parcels come immediately to your home box.
Payment is made using electronic currencies (Yandex-money, Webmoney, Qiwi and some other payment systems), as well as bank cards. Payment is verified, after which the goods are considered paid for within 24 hours.
In the situation, if the goods did not arrive on time, the wrong size arrived (and the sizes on Aliexpress differ from the Russian ones), the color or style, or in general what is received, does not suit you - you can open a dispute and return your money through it or part of them. The buyer is mostly right, so there are no problems with the return.
What to look for when ordering with Aliexpress?
And now the registration is completed, the main nuances of payment, return and the order itself are taken into account. You can start choosing. Knowing that the store is simply huge, you need to give yourself an installation, but it is better to set a certain monetary limit. Otherwise, you can lose an incredible amount of money by spending it on completely unnecessary trinkets.
Here are important selection criteria.
When choosing clothes or shoes for adults and children, it should be borne in mind that the dimensions on Aliexpress are often small. At least one size. It is necessary to carefully study the size chart, read reviews and see the attached photos, in case of any doubt, contact the seller.
When choosing a free delivery, you should prepare for a rather long wait (sometimes you can set the waiting time and up to 80 days). Although on average, a parcel from Aliexpress arrives in 15-25 days, and there have even been cases of receiving goods in a week. In some cases, it’s better to pay a little extra for faster and better delivery.
Before placing an order, it is advisable to carefully study the profile of the seller, his rating and reviews.
Order or not order ?! That's the question
And yet, when switching to the choice of goods, eyes start to run up, I want everything at once. And the prices are attractive, and the discounts are alluring. Such courage is characteristic especially for those who are just getting acquainted with the store and making their first purchases.
But do not rush into the pool with your head. You need to decide which best products on Aliexpress are worthy of attention and a subsequent purchase. And which ones are just a "trick".
For example, you can take goods for newborns and small children. If you carefully monitor these categories of products, you will notice that when sewing baby clothes, mostly high-quality, natural materials are used. For such products, the price is slightly higher than for the same bodysuits, but with synthetic filling. Wooden toys are much more expensive than their plastic counterparts. But! It happens that way - the same wooden puzzle with two different sellers costs differently. One has 400 rubles, while the other has 150. The first has a overwhelming rating and sales, the second has a “one and a half” buyer and has no reviews. The conclusion suggests itself: really high-quality products cannot cost a penny. Even on such a popular Chinese site as Aliexpress. This applies to any product groups.
It is immediately worth noting that Aliexpress offers prices in rubles and in dollars. It is better to use the Russian-language version of the site so that prices are as transparent as possible, and not convert dollars into rubles on your own and then be surprised at price inconsistencies.
How to save on already economical Aliexpress?
In order to make a truly bargain, you can use the special offers of the store.
The best products on Aliexpress can be bought at significant discounts. But special attention is required here. The discount should not be because the goods are defective or of terrible quality.
You can take a chance and order the goods with a benefit of up to 70% from a novice seller. Usually they are willing to offer low prices to gain a rating. And in most cases the product will be really high quality.
You can find a seller who always has discounts on all products. This is a kind of trick: pre-charged value is removed and here you have constant stocks. Such sellers usually have a lot of buyers, a high rating and excellent sales. The quality of the goods is also on top.
And of course, one should not lose sight of large-scale sales and offers, which are made not by any particular seller, but by "Aliexpress itself". Typically, a period of several days is allocated when certain groups of goods, regardless of the seller, can be purchased at unrealistically low prices.
The most important thing, having crossed the "threshold" of Aliexpress, do not forget that this is still the Internet and trade. And, as you know, there are always unscrupulous personalities. It is necessary to be as attentive and careful as possible, then purchases will bring only joy and pleasure.
