Alibaba Reviews

I bought a carkey., which was defect. The supplier accepted to pay the money back, but they do not know how to organise. They say that Alibaba can not handle the money transfer. Supplier RLMKS Store.

Impersonal service without responsibility.
A product (instrument microphone) for about 160 € never came to me, although alibaba asserted this by means of the international digital proof of shipment. I paid 160 for nothing !!!
From Aliexpress and alibaba I can only advise against. This is also documented by other users! At Amazon, the products at least arrive and the refund works too!

Never again alibaba and aliexpress !!!

I have used Alibaba Trade Assurance for 4 years and thought it was fine until a seller did not ship the goods. I thought this would be straight forward to claim a refund from Alibaba, i have all the evidence , i uploaded it to them as they asked. They agreed the refund, but 4 months later still no refund. I have contacted them numerous times but the same old reply 'wait a little longer' 'We'll get back to you' 'It will be processed tomorrow'.
I have now told my suppliers that i will only use PayPal in future.

Alibaba Dispute Management IS THE WORST!! We have ordered over 13.000 USD of products, and even had the Alibaba inspection in China. However, the goods sent to us were really bad. We opened a dispute and uploaded 65 (!) pictures evidencing the bad quality. Then they wanted us to pay for an inspection in Germany (about 5.000-7.000 USD), and decided for a (partial) refund based on this inspection. Problem there is, they do not freeze any trade amount from the seller - so you are highly at risk to get the money back!!! However, we then agreed with the seller to get replacement parts and a small refund. Then the seller uploaded the bank slipt and Alibaba asked 1 day later if we have received it (fridays). Because we didn't answer within 24 hours, they CLOSE the dispute process!! (they already threatened multiple times before to close the dispute, when the time to answer has passed [mostly 24 hours, even at the weekend!!!]). I would have never thought to say this, but we really hate Alibaba for this.

Not A Trustworthy Company

This company has no qualms or concerns selling contraband or environmentally toxic items to anyone ordering and this is of great concern. An example - mercury medical (and for personal use) thermometers. These have been banned in various nations since the 1990's and in 13 States in the USA since 2002. Yet Aliexpress and Alibaba continue to sell these online. There is an obvious disregard for the health and welfare of not only the environment, but marine life and human life as well. The ignorance of the buyers does not give Aliexpress and Alibaba the carte blanche license to sell these items because of "demand". Education is needed on both the buyers and this company's management & supply chain to ensure the continual destruction of the environment we all share will stop. Until that happens, stay away. Your life or the life of a loved one may depend on it.

this website is a scam at it's very best please do not use it you have been warned

alibaba trade assurance is worth nothing, as a customer you can expect zero help from alibaba even if you order with trade assurance and your case meets all the criteria of trade assurance
