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.

Congratulations!
I purchased very expensive doors at NF Build mart with owner Norman Chen. He made a "mistake" in the contract writing "EXW". Then without my consent he ships the goods without insurance and correct labelling on boxes such as "glass" and "this side up".
When doors arrive in my country (but still in international transit) they are broken. Now he claims he has insurance, but will not provide documentation of this. I dispute at alibaba, but all they say it is my fault because of EXW. This means when buying EXW a seller can just push your goods onto the street and claim you have taken ownership and picked them up. Also alibaba dispute asks me for shipping insurance and paper - but it was seller who shipped items without sending me information and without my consent and approval. So how can i contact sellers insurance? It is ridiculous situation. I tell this to alibaba dispute, but they ignore this fact. In alibaba buyers protection it says seller must provide proof of legal change of ownership, but in reality the dispute manager ignores this rule.
Excellent service in every way. Fast delivery and I will be looking to Alibaba for future purchases.
A good place to find manufacture and patience and communications are gold. Patience and communications patience and communications patience and communications patience and communications.
Found exellent sellers, as well as bad as they make excessive charges on shipments, since they do not send you the proof of payment of the shipment
Is a good experience to buy on alibaba. It's my first time and it was wonderful, thank you alibaba...
Having the trade assurance is excellent. There updates are a little slow at times, but utilizing Alibaba is a plus for us.
I brought an alto saxophone from this company. They were easy to deal with, they supplied a great product for a good price and everything arrived safely and I had no issues, so I would be happy to recommend them.
Good service and extremely professional support and shipping by our dear supplier. Will work with them again in the future.
Alibaba me permitió comprar muestras de forma fácil y rápida estamos esperando poder hacer mas negocios con china y creo que es la mejor forma en la que se pueden hacer
Product arrived as described. 3 days delay before i received the goods but that fine. Overall good experience until now.
Going through Alibaba takes the worry out of ordering from overseas. The transaction went smooth from start to finish.
I've purchased circuit breaker from Yueqing High Quality Electric Co., Ltd. through Alibaba.com, the experience was great, I received my product in very short time which was exactly as required with very reasonable price compared to my country but with high quality materials.
The supplier customer service team was following up with me each step till I received the product and made sure it meets my expectations, even beyond.
I would recommend purchasing from Alibaba.com in general and from Yueqing High Quality Electric Co., Ltd. in particular.
Best regards,
Lots of options when it comes to looking for what you need. Well supported communication and billing process. That said do your homework when looking for what you want and be patience considering language differences and time zones.
Alibaba is good online site, but only problem is shipping cost is very very high. Need to have little cheaper way for shipping which more people can afford.
MUY RESPONSABLE Y SERIO Y LA MERCANCIA ME LLEGO EXCELENTE Y RAPIDO ME PARECE Q ES UN VENDEDOR MUY BUENO LO RECOMIENDO 100% PARA HACER NEGOCIO CON EL
First, my responses to bids did not change their status. I kept getting notices as if they were new. The phone app doesn't synch with my computer, and the computer app freezes on the page to start a conversation. Their platform is so buggy it makes Messenger look good. But I ordered, and later, while my shipment sat at customs, Alibaba completed it anyway and asked for a review of seller, not once but twice for 2 different orders. Alibaba's so-called help did nothing to correct the problem even after I got a human to respond. I had to come here to leave a review of Alibaba because their own site doesn't have the option. If I can find another way to get international bids, I will switch.
We had a good experience and the products have been delivered quite soon.
Nice dresses!
Thank you!
Of course, as a first time buyer, I was a little leary thinking "can this be legit?" but it is. Everythig went just exactly like it should have. I couldn't be happier with the service or the product.
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

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
