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.

Carbon tube order CY-SZ190418
August 12, 2019

Good experience to deal through Alibaba, easy and safe. We placed order through Alibaba, to make sure we can get the right products in time. We bought tubes from China before, only do in traditional way, but sometimes, the goods will be some problem, and it's not easy to communicate with suppliers, some suppliers will not solve in time, or even no any feedback then, but now I feel much better, we can do international business in a easy way.

Liaoyang Chakra Mat Order
August 11, 2019

The beautiful mat was as advertised but I want to convey the quality was better than expected! Highly recommended. I am a Physician and I am using the mat as an adjunct treatment in my professional clinic. In the past I have been robbed and cheated by Alibab Vendors with no recourse such as from the Marche-Hout Medic Co,. Ltd Company, Indonesia. However, this order from the Liaoyang company for therapy mats went without a hitch.

Outstanding Customer Relations
August 11, 2019

While I had a bit of a hard time understanding the girl I spoke with, we did manage to get enough information back to each other to point out the problems with the vendor.
The girl from Alibaba was very polite and considerate in handling my issues even through the communications issues. Her English was very rough, but I was finally able to understand enough to process her information.
