Anyone used them?

Any issues?

Their prices are quite low, but am of the opinion that often they are low for a reason!
 
Ive no personal experience but my impression is aliexpress and alibaba are both riddled with scammers.

You might do ok, you might get grief.

Although I have to say Ive bought plenty of stuff from ebay and amaxon that was shipped from China -not electrical goods though.
 
A friend in Switzerland swears by them, but maybe because ebay / amazon deliveries are not so efficient there.
If you see something on there you want, search ebay and amazon - you might find it there for a bit more, but with a much easier returns process.
I tend to only use Amazon now purely because of the returns - just print a label, take it up the road to the Hermes shop, and refund appears a few days later. No phone calls, complaining emails, no waiting 3 months.
