Alibaba Reviews Summary

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.

Sellers are so rude
August 13, 2020

Most sellers just looking for money not business, I was trying to communicate for business for my company to buy from him products I just asked about the sample and he was only asking for money first

So Far it was good for me. Only thing is shipping time, which is ok not the best. Also there are scammer in this platform who will ask you to contact outside Alibaba and ask for payment out of the platform. Be aware of these ones.

Bandana order
August 14, 2020

Very easy to use and find a gold supplier that is trustworthy, before all this i had placed an order through an Alibaba supplier and was burnt but it didn't have the security and pay back back then so they have fixed up the problems and would gladly use again.

UVC lamps
August 14, 2020

Eva Wong at Shaoxing Shangyu Xiangshun Import & Export Co., Ltd has been great to work with for our initial UVC lamp samples. They have built the lamps to spec and they have successfully delivered our first shipment for evaluation. Communication back and forth has been great and Eva has made this business relationship excellent and an overall joy. I would recommend this company and Eva to anyone looking for a UV component supplier.
