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.

Alibaba is a great site to connect suppliers with buyers. I use this for all my mass purchasing needs and I highly recommend it to others as well. Alibaba works well because there are a number of features to ensure that both parties are getting their part of the bargain.
I didn't think it will be that easy
Multi choices multi seller easy to contact
And I can find anything in one place

Great supplier, Extremely helpful every step of the way and great quality product. I would highly recommend.
I have been working with Alibaba for 2 years using Trade Assurance and the experience has been great. The company I have been dealing with has been excellent on delivering good quality product in a timely manner
Gives certain guarantee to the customer, easy to track, easy to connect with the supplier. I am convinced to use this service in the future.
I have had a great experience with Alibaba suppliers so far. Great prices and great customer service.
Demoró casi un mes, pero aprendiendo... me parece bien
Me enviaron una muestra, la intención es comprar, asi que todo conforme por ahora
Seguiré comprando e investigando
First time shopping on Alibaba and had a very good experience very easy to use and very convenient to place an order and the payment is also very convenient
The site was pretty easy to use with a wide range of selection to choose from and reasonable price ranges. Whether for individual use or wholesale, this is a site to shop.
Friends, please if you want to order cufflinks I recommend you to xushi they are the best I have ever seen
Very helpful. We appreciated it, It was delivered in a week. And Products are in good condition.
Thank you again
The product quality is very good, and professional company to work with. I am UK, London based, and i can say that i am very pleased to be a customer. EXCELLENT service. Excellent product.
Kyra is easy to communicate, uses wechat and email, works crazy hours! She is excellent, very professional! Its now 3rd time i do business with her and so much easier than other suppliers!
Alibaba is a great place to source your product! I have great experience working with a supplier and decided to place a full order through Alibaba. Overall, it has been a great experience for me.
I do have more time doing business with you but I believe that we will make mutually benefits. Best regards
Comprehensive, very well managed and entirely acceptable for all matters to do with business in China and beyond
It is very common in the sellers of China, they do not want to take charge of the customs procedures, DHL is the courier, which more obstacles puts to Mexico, because they take the packages without reviewing charge and when it arrives at destination, in this case Mexico requires an envelope cost for the merchandise to reach its destination, if one hires door to door the package must be taken into account and take charge of the cost overrun implied by a supplier's decision
Good experience as a 1st time buyer. Still at the infant stage to really understand the shipping process & cost. It seems the shipping cost is almost the same price as the product cost for smaller quantities which could discourage buying. If Alibaba could provide a much cheaper alternatives than what the supplier can provide, that will be great
It's my first to try buying online thru alibaba and was able to get in touch directly with manufacturers and it has been a great experience.
Was hesitant at first, as I'm not sure though if I will be dealing with legit suppliers, but it proved me wrong, Alibaba is a bridge for consumers who wants to have a real deal savings and value for their money thru direct buying from makers all over the world.
Although I am always a little bit sceptical when I order something at Alibaba.com I was again positivly surprised. Once again. I rely more and more on this internet-portal.
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
Alibaba.com is the world's leading wholesale trade platform that connects buyers and suppliers from around the world.
