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.

Rilassante
June 4, 2019

The problem I had, to make it clear to those who sell in your web, not to sell with a description of the product and price to subsequently change the price and the components of the product itself, to make them understand that if they send an excellent product then they will sell many.
The system has been complex, but I think I was clear with them, if all the products, once assembled, will work well, I will always work with the same suppliers.

First Major purchase on Alibaba
June 4, 2019

I was not sure of what charges I would incur so I made every effort to determine what they would be prior to making the purchase. It ended up that I knew all the charges in advance and there were no surprises. I am not sure how thing have or will change with the tariffs in place now as my purchase was just before the 25%.

Sample Android 4G phones
June 4, 2019

The order of 3x individual sample phones went smoothly, arrived on time, and all in tact. One phone took a while for the OS to stabilize and accept apps, but the supplier was super helpful all the way. A very positive experience.

A Complete Game Changer
June 3, 2019

Alibaba is an excellent site set up in such a user friendly way. By entering keywords describing the product you are looking for to sell, you will find listings of many different itens to look through with decriptions, and pictures. You are able to contact the company (inquiry) as far as samples, order quantities, price, etc. This makes scouting out the product you have in your head to sell, Sooooo much easier to find. Thus far, any company I have reached out to has been very helpful, respectful, and are interested in doing business. A huge breath of fresh air. Thank you Alibaba

Alibaba service charges
June 3, 2019

Alibaba should not charge customer service charge, it should be on the supplier! As the supplier is making money on selling. Customer basing cost on quotation and now to have to add service charges.

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
June 3, 2019

It was very good and professional experience with "Shenzhen Lithtech Energy Co., Ltd." through Alibaba. They are so friendly and ready to help whenever you contact them, right from the day I did my first enquiry till I receive the product. The product was delivered without any delay (before the expected date) in good condition.

I would highly recommend anyone to try with them and will contact them for future orders as well for sure.

Thank you to the team at "Shenzhen Lithtech Energy Co., Ltd."
