The overall reputation of the company is mixed, with some customers appreciating the variety and affordability of products offered. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding customer service and support. Many users report frustrating experiences with delayed refunds, ineffective communication, and unresolved product quality issues, often feeling misled by the company's assurances. The Trade Assurance program is frequently described as inadequate, failing to protect buyers effectively. This combination of positive product experiences and pervasive service challenges suggests a need for improved customer support and better oversight of suppliers to enhance overall customer satisfaction.

Good service. Fast shipping and reliable shipping cost. They understand the requirement of a customer and even providing extra service like prep and labelling.
The only problem that I had was they run pretty big, they are so comfortable and I sold out in one day!
Like all experiences, the first experience is the hardest, especially as a consumer used to fast delivery in Canada. I had to remind myself that I was dealing with foreign suppliers and long shipping lead times. I will definitely use Alibaba again. My suggestion to Alibaba is to help educate their merchants on communicating with consumers
I have used Alibaba and Aliexpress for over 4 years and always have great experiences. I find for the most part vendors are eager to work with you and create a great product. If I find communication isn't good from the start I usually move to someone else. I have received refunds without a problem and really love their platform to connect step by step throughout the production process for question and follow through. Remember, no matter where you do business always be thorough by asking questions, give as many details as possible, know your measurements, read reviews and always give plenty of time for processing, mfg and delivery times. If I receive an order within 30 days, I consider myself lucky. I will definitely order from many of my ALIBABA mfgs again and again.
I had a overall 7 star experience using alibaba to buy products. The business people are very courteous and professional.
Easy to fine any product, very helpful The person did not speak english, but helped in good manner, product also arrived in a short time, I am satisfied
Linda has been very quick in responding to my queries. From start to finish she was on top of her game
I have found Alibaba very good to use. In relation to searching for suppliers, the abundance of them in one way is very good for the choice, in another way you have to take the time to develop your communication with suppliers. I have found that some suppliers are very engaging, informative, patient, and willing to assist, others not so much, but this is where the benefit is - of having the choice. I will continue to use Alibaba as well for the safe buying and guarantees they give to ensure you are comfortable and confident as a first time user. Very good experience so far.
So nice to use and it is easy to understand the platform. Moreover, there is so much to chose from beside having a surprisingly quick response everytime.
I tried to claim compensation for damaged goods, whereby I was insulted with 20$ compensation. Less than 10%.
Arrived damaged in an intact cardboard box. Alibaba says damaged in transit, I say faulty goods, or at least faulty packaging.
Alibaba says one must check contents before the courier leaves- I say this is impossible.
Alibaba service review system does not allow sub-5 star ratings! What a terrible SCAM!
I have never felt so cheated, will not touch these pirates again.
ZERO CUSTOMER PROTECTION FOR FAULTY GOODS. BE CAREFUL.
I used to purchase from this company. They have good cooperation and hospitality., and quick response.
Answer: Nothing you can do i was ripped off and alibaba wont help you i suggest that you have learnt a lesson dont trust Chinese companies more rip offs then good stories
Answer: Definitely not. I spent £1000 and never received goods and no money back
Answer: I would recomend to purchase only from people who have pay pal! And be carefull because there are a lot of sellers that just steal your money!
Answer: Do not do it!~ they are scammers. It is way to difficult to figure out who are scam sellers and who are not. And there idea of protection is a joke! Do not do it. If they are cheap there is a reason why... think about that! Dont do it!
Answer: Alibaba does not offer any protection from either scams or mistakes. Dispute resolution to them is you lose your money or pay more money and then lose it. Only pay with CC and then give alibaba 1 chance to fix then dispute with CC company and get money back. IMPORTANT in contract state that you get a full refund of any monies if their are any problems.
Answer: I would echo Hugh K's comments. Never ever rely on Alibaba whether the supplier is trusted or gold whatever. Insist on paying via PayPal. Ask seller to send you PayPal invoice and before making payment, call and confirm with PayPal if you are protected by PayPal in case seller doesn't deliver as promised. Personally, I stay away from purchasing via Alibaba. Try Dhgate.com. I'm doing all my business from this site
Answer: Hi Bud, this is Echo from Alibaba Customer Service. I checked the name you provided and this supplier came up: http://vuidding.en.alibaba.com/. If this is the supplier you are referring to, please click the following link to get live chat service from our service consultants: http://service.alibaba.com/buyer/contact_us.htm. They will check out the reputation of this supplier for you and provide you with some safe trading tips. Have a nice day!
Answer: If reading the reviews does not answer your question then nothing I say will have any effect at all on what you think. If you have read these reviews and you buy from this website then you must want to lose all your money, therefore it would be a better idea to give it to a worthwhile charity
Answer: This is what they tell you but in fact it doesn't happen. Alibaba only look after their traders. The traders buy gold supplier stars like we buy lollipops. Gold star supplier means nothing. Ghangzou Mega Beauty firstly showed 3 stars, the following week 4 stars, following week 5 stars and the next week 6 stars. I complained to Alibaba who don't care as long as they get the money. Now DHGate do not release the payment until you receive your goods. Buy from DHGate to ensure you are not scammed.
Answer: Theres a lot of corruption with the vendors on Aliababa... its russian roulette
