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.

Good and safe to use service
October 26, 2019

Very happy with experience, Alibaba advised me to be careful when supplier wanted payment by Western Union (noticed on messages). I took their advice and paid through the Trade contract. Goods received quickly and money was safe

A learning curve
October 26, 2019

I found out that Alibaba is different from other sites. Folks from Alibaba will even call you. When it comes to shipping you can request how you want your product shipped. The next time I order from Alibaba I'll know better on how I want my product shipped.

My experience with Alibaba system was quite OK, fast and effective. However shipment was delayed ' most probably due to transportation company. But I am happy with the result, will continue using Alibaba system.

Lily was very helpful with answering questions about the product options and in placing the order. The items were manufactured in about 13 days (Lily estimated it would take over 2 weeks) and then were shipped from China to US in just 2 days! They arrived packaged safely and the purse hangers were well made and looked great with vivid graphics and a nice finish. This is exactly what I wanted. I have been extremely reluctant to deal with overseas manufacturers in the past but I will work with this company again when I need this type of promotional item. Great job!

Perfect Doll
October 25, 2019

I shopped and researched hundreds of dolls for several weeks and my final decision came down to Dongguan Funland and there Dolls. Absolutely top Quality and Professional service. They keep in contact with you about everything you want done. They will customize anything you want and need. I am so happy with my doll because they made sure it was perfect for me, they sent me photos before she was shipped. And there prices were the best. Thank you so much
