DHgate Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company appears to be significantly tarnished by customer experiences, with numerous reports of unreliable product delivery and poor quality. Many customers express frustration over inadequate customer service, citing difficulties in obtaining refunds, unresponsive sellers, and complicated dispute processes. While some customers initially found value in the low prices, the overwhelming sentiment is one of disappointment, particularly regarding product discrepancies and shipping issues. Trust in the platform is low, as many users recommend avoiding it altogether in favor of more reputable alternatives.

This website is better thsn amazon and ebay combined because this is where amazon and ebay and even your every day small business gets their supply. Cut out the middle man and save mad money! Holidays are awesome especially with such great deals. They have the best buyer reward program of any site I have ever used, I will keep using this website and buying from its professional sellers, they will even work with you to resolve any issues!

Cheap and Reliable Website
December 1, 2016

This was my first time ordering from DHgate, and it was quite simple. It is essentially eBay for China, and you purchase direct from the manufacturer. This allowed me to obtain items for much cheaper than if I had purchased them from a store. I did not purchase a replica item, as DHgate has been doing a great job of trying to remove replica items from their website. As long as you buy from a reputable seller, you should not run into any issues. DHgate does not pay sellers until you have received and checked out the items condition. I would definitely recommend this website to anyone.

What does this mean?
December 1, 2016

I often place orders with DHgate, so when i get an enquiry with no order number, i can't tell what it's about. This message from DHgate says:
"For order $order_number$, we saw that you have clicked..."

Huh? That's the third time that's happened in a month!

Hi Grant,

Thanks for reaching out. The order number is also called the "PO#" which can be found on your DHgate account. We need the order numbers to check the specific status and details of each order and when our system sends you notifications about your orders, the order number is usually written as the subject.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact us through the following link: http://www.dhgate.com/contact/contactUs.do?from=nav_menu&ntalker=1 or send an email to [email protected].

Hi Usman,

Thanks for your feedback. We have different price range from Aliexpress since we have different suppliers and manufacturers. Not a problem as you can get coupons from our sellers' stores or you can negotiate for a discount from our merchants. You can get in touch with our sellers by clicking either the "online chat" or "message" button in the item page. Rest assured that our sellers are willing to cooperate as long as there is proper communication.

If you have any other questions, please do not hesitate to contact us through the following link: http://www.dhgate.com/contact/contactUs.do?from=nav_menu&ntalker=1 or send an email to [email protected].

Bonjour,
Hélas je ne comprend que le français et tous les messages que vous m'envoyez sont incompréhensibles malgré le traducteur; y compris les suivis de commandes. Chaque message de votre part me pose un problème et me fait regretter ma commande passée.

Problem
December 1, 2016

******* I had problems with this order, in fact never received the product but as I had already passed the term of protection, I decided to sort out who is this dishonest seller. On the site there are several good sellers but this one never sent me the product and did not answer my questions.
