I've ordered a few things in the past couple of months, again only lower priced items and have been really pleased with them all. I ordered shoes, boots and hair accessories. The shoes do come up a little on the narrow side, but the range they have is excellent (for a shoeaholic like me)
Personally i wouldn't order anything like make-up or skin care, as it's not worth the risk to your health if they've put some ingredients in it that you might react to.

The problem with aliexpress is the payment method. You use their own escrow system which claims to protect you, but when you actually try and claim due to non arrival they ignore you. Just be careful.

Had a really nice bag for.under £8 and have another on order, they take about 17 days to come. A cheap way to treat yourself compared to what we sometimes end up paying otherwise.

I got myself a pre payment card and only load ten pounds at a time. Will only order low value items but what I have had I am pleased with.

Wouldn't it be safer to pay with a credit card? That way you get extra protection and if you have any problems you can hopefully get it sorted with your credit card company rather than the escrow system.

By the way I've just looked at the aliexpress homepage and they are giving a $5 coupon if you subscribe to emails.

Done a few orders, fairly small stuff, some patches, a swimming costume, some stuffed dolls (Frozen) and so far so good.

I suggest you not to buy stuffed soft toy from china. They may not up to standard and could be dangerous when there is fire.

I've been looking on hear for ages, I do quite a bit of crafty things and a lot of the stuff is sold through Amazon too. But the bags and other things I think i'm going to have a gamble.

With regards to make up etc, I'm going to try the mascara. I've bought things in the past off of ebay thinking they were genuine and they weren't.

Actually. This looks like once pretty good bargain out here. Although I would suggest doing a second verification about the seller which will save us from getting into some pitfall

I'm still waiting on a bag and scarf that I ordered on 3rd August. It will probably turn up. I regularly buy e-cig items from a couple of chinese sites. Delivery can be anything from 2 weeks to 7 weeks.

One I ordered from was called DD Store and I have had no trouble. http://www.aliexpress.com/store/1291043

I've also used this site many times without problems. You just have to be patient for your order to arrive that's all

I've just ordered these cushion covers- real bargain as I was tempted by EXACTLY the same ones in New York where they were $29.99 each... :dance:
