Started using this platform in fall 2019 and have not looked back.You have to do research and weed out the scammers , otherwise I have found real gems of items on there and not used western stores since then as I can find everything on there for less the price and excellent quality of products.As I said do your research, there are good and bad sellers on there , for me my experience has been positive .I love Aliexpress and intend to move my business even further with honest vendors/sellers I have found on there.
