Aliexpress (Was: Re: [RaspberryPi-4-HamRadio] EDATEC Industrialized Raspberry RPi-5)


 

I don't order from Aliexpress vendors who don't accept PayPal.
In fact, I endeavor to follow that policy for all on-line purchases.

Likewise.

Although I have never placed an order with Aliexpress, they started
making charges to my credit card. Most were under $15, but they made
over 300 transactions in a three week period. Could not reach anybody or
get any response from Aliexpress. I filed a protest with my bank.
Response to the bank from Aliexpress was all items were ordered and
delivered. I never ordered or received a single thing. They refused to
tell the bank what address the items were delivered to due to "Privacy
Restrictions." It took a couple months until the bank removed all the
charges. Had to cancel and reissue my credit card. Bank told me it took
so long to resolve because they had so many similar complaints against them.

Stay away from Aliexpress.

Isn't that a Chinese company?

Yes, and seems to be the only place to get much of the handy stuff we buy.

A lot of the things on there, they are just a reseller for like Amazon is. Amazon certainly aren't any better. Amazon tried to screw me over years ago, so I won't buy from them.

AliExpress does take PayPal. Always has, it was one of Jack Ma's policies (Jack Ma suspected to be RIP after anti-CCP comments), He wanted to use payment methods that were commonly used the world over. In different parts of the world the primary suggested payment method is different.?
