Warning, dont buy from "Hongkong VT Store", On AliExpress - Huawei Mate 20 X Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello,
first of all, I am sorry for my English, hope you will understand everything.
I made an order from that seller on aliexpress, 12 days ago on black friday.
I was able to purchase the cheaper 6/128 version, plus aliexpress select coupon and a 10$ coupon that i was exchanged for ali coins. was happy about the price at first. later i realize that the option was fake.
He said that he will ship it in 2-5 working days, tried to contact him after 5 working days (7 days after I made the order), he didn`t answer, tried again after 2 days (9 days), still nothing.
the day after that I contract aliexpress customer service, and she told me to request order cancellation, I told her couple of times that I still want the order, but she kept saying that I have nothing to worry about, and the order wont be canceled right away.
So I did listen to her, and did it.
How long it took for Hongkong VT Store to cancel my order? 5 god dam minutes!
It confirmed my thoughts that he is ignoring me, and wont sending my mate 20x.
The seller is not trust worthy, scamming his customer.
Its a shame that ali express allows this kind of behavior from their sellers, but the rest of the story made me understand that ali express customer service is as bad as the seller.
I contract them again in order to at least get the same price on the product, since its their representative that gave me the false information. they ignored it.
I asked them to get the coupons again, he said that he will pass it to the manager. 2 days afterwards got a mail that said that I wont get any coupon, and if I want i can place new order.
Be advised to ali express awful customer, and their cunning seller.

Doesn't matter now I suppose but I order from AliExpress all the time and I've found the sellers will wait till the literal last day of their processing time to ship. Then they'll hold on to the package for a long time to. AliExpress gives massive amounts of time so they can **** around like that. Anyways I've found they rarely if ever respond to requests to ship/process faster. I ordered a lipin falcon from their official store and they took so long to ship it I missed black Friday with them since it was the first time buying lipin. Just AliExpress sadly.. also got to watch out for their advertising

Ya, i had little hope that he will ship it. but due to false information from the customer service it does not matter.
BTW, the processing time was 30 days!

I can only say good things about Aliexpress.
I buy 3 smartphones this year.
All i got send with DHL and took between 6 and 11 days.
So im a happy user in 12 years.
There is always some bad stories to tell for most web sites.
I feel sorry for u with this, its so ****ty when it happens.
I know the seller u talk about, i never buy from them, but i have been close some times, maybe one day i will and i know if something is wrong i can make a dispute and i always have good experience when i make disputes. But luckly it have always been from small orders my disputes.

The question is what ali express customer service do for you when a seller wont comply to his obligations.
95% percent of the my online orders is from amazon, never experienced something even close to that from amazons customer service. they take full responsibility for their actions and commitments.

No man you probably too impatient.. Aliexpress has no idea who is who .. ppl just listing items .. There is certain time for shipping or cancelling and refunding too ..
I ordered like 50 items from Aliex and all OK there were orders that didn't go through and I simply cancelled
And there are no scams u need to check reviews and feedback .. They probably has no time or bizy

I think that 4 days it more than enough for a seller to respond to message. Plus, when your customer service gives bad advice you should take responsibility for their mistakes, not the customer.
I made 30 orders on ali express but never had to deal with the customer service, so?

If i can recommend a seller on Aliexpress, would def be HW Retail Store. I order from this guy 2 Units Mate 20 X and i ask him to send both devices in Original Factory Sealed BOX, No PlayStore Installed ! He did it like i said, i was fingercrossed because i have paid by credit card, but everything was smooth and the seller keep his promise.
Not to mention that before i purchase from HW Retail Store, i have bought 1 unit from WondaMobile and another Unit from Giztop. Worst Sellers ever !
I have ask them to send me Sealed BOX, they promise me they will send it In Factory Sealed BOX... Guess what ? Both phones from WondaMobile and Giztop arrived with Open BOX and fingerprints all over the screen... ! Thanks God i paid by Paypal, i open Dispute and got refunded after i send both phones back to China !
Then i went on Aliexpress and after asking lots of seller about the Sealed BOX, this guy HW Retail Store was the only Seller who was honest, prompt reply and he send me pictures with the Sealed BOX before purchase. So, i can recommend you this Seller on Aliexpress with all my heart... in my case was a smooth transaction and a very pleasant experience to have both units in Original Sealed BOX !
Cheers

In my opinion yes, i bought different phones in this shop and in other well-known Aliexpress shops to, last 15 years now.
Always satisfied. But we all can hear bad stories of nearly every shops you know

Hey all there,
do you have any experiece with this spare part distributor?
I need a spare part for my HTC Sensation but I'm not sure if this shop ist worth my money.
So what do you think?
I recently bought some small tools ans sticker and course I will share my experience here.
*bump*
Yesterday I asked for a invoice copy for ustoms duty purpose.
Today I got it. So customer service seems to be ok.
I was looking at these guys for a replacement speaker on my evolution 3d .
I was wondering if there has been an update on your order?
I can report, that my package arrived well covered and with the ordered pieces.
The stickers are ok, well what shouldt they do wrong?
The tools look cheap, I think.
So I'm still not sure to order there. And 40€ is a lot of money for me, because I'm still on-the-job training. If loosing the money wouldn't hurt so much, I wouldt definitely give them a try.
I'll give an update when I've made a decision.
As far as I know, they're the most reputable...the guys off Ebay for example will give you rear housing but part wasn't cut to exact dimensions...or missing something very minor but meaning whole part cannot be used...
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
I decided not to order there.
I ordered on a trader from Great Britain for a much cheaper price. Hope the LCD is no fake.
Update:
It looks not like a fake, but i haven't had time to reassable my phone yet.
I've bought a number of spare parts for my i9100 and N7100 there, and all I can say about them is praise.
The delivery time seems a bit on the long side (took about 10 days for delivery to France each time), but customer service is excellent and the prices are the lowest I been able to find anywhere on the market...
As far as I'm concerned it's a go, you can order from them anytime, even blindfolded...

Granted, the 3$ toolkit for Samsung devices I bought there looks equally cheap. But it still accomplishes the job more than is needed.
Also, keep in mind that such toolkits are most often made by device manufacturers themselves, parts4repair.com has nothing to do with this whatsoever (save that they're reselling them for a -small- profit, obviously ).

Any examples for other better places?
Just ordered a camera for my i9100 from them and it came with a big scratch that appears big and pink on all my photo's .
Bought a HTC Sensation volume buttons flex cable and a set of screws and came as expected. The volume buttons had an issue and I asked them for a replacement via email, which they answered and sent a new one for free. Happy with them.
Got scammed
Ordered a housing assembly for htc desire hd and three batteries. The cover assembly had two parts which were used and had worn out contact surfaces. The batteries run out of life really fast (as fast a 2 year old battery and some even faster), they have been marked as e.g. "LQ" and using a battery tester app they give results varying between 800-1100mah for the dhd battery that should be 1230mah.
They've answered to emails with varying delay of 4-7 days, but to my latest email i haven't gotten a reply, when i asked them to send me instructions to return the package. They seem to be purposely delaying the case by asking silly questions i've already given them an aswer to. It's been almost a month and a half since my first email to them.
Going to report them to my credit card company so they will take it from here.
I bought a Full Housing Cover and a Complete Screen Assembly with Bezel for my Galaxy S II i9100, and they were out of stock. Waited for two weeks and they were still out of stock. Asked for a refund 4 days ago and they haven't replied yet or issued the refund. I'm glad I paid with paypal. If by the end of the week they still haven't issued a refund, I'm going to report them.
EDIT: They issued a full refund to my paypal today.

I bought a full housing form Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 and 2 cover camera lens on 4/11/2013.
Products are handed over to carrier on 7/11/2013 (SingaporePosts...very good assistance and fast answer: vote 5 stars!!!) and it shipped on 12/11/2013 by naval ship (very bad!!!).
Shipping arrives in Italy (to Milan) on 04/12/2013 ( 1 month) but the product is been blocked to Italian mail customs up to 21/12/2013 for controls because it was declared as "fashion accessory" for a value of €1.
I was almost certain that the product would be blocked, but unexpectedly, it is unlocked on 12/27/2013 and delivered today 23/12/013.
With much surprise I enjoyed an excellent packaging and protection product.
Overall I'm pretty pleased with parts4repair.com even if I wrote them all history and I said them that I don't buy no more from them just because delivery times are too long.
I would add that every time I contacted parts4repair for a problem about shipment, they answered me immediately, in 24 hours to my email
Be warned!!!!
Before ordering a replacement screen for my TF700 I checked for positive or negative experiences with Parts4Repair.com here on XDA. Only found this thread and decided to try it.
I ordered a V02 of the screen for $ 97,90 including shipping on 24/08/13 and received an incompatible version V01 on 10/09/13. After sending an email the same day I received an email asking me to return the screen back to them. (needed to return it to China for $ 13,- without tracking, which I found expensive enough). Four days later I receive an automatically generated email where they state that the purchase is refunded through PayPal.
On 25/10/13 they confirm reception of the screen and confirm (again) to refund (as they didn't have the V02 screen!).
As of yet (08/01/14) I haven't received a refund.
So Parts4Repair.com first sends a wrong item, then doesn't have the ordered item at all, confirms twice to refund and in the end doesn't do anything.
PayPal wasn't any help either because they requested a tracking number, after I had already send it back and they refuse to look at the emails confirming the return of the screen.
Just to add my voice. Ordered a chip for my sammy October / November... One month - nothing... started chasing and they said it had been sent... oddly the tracking date it was sent was when I complained.... Too late to place a Paypal complaint in.
Any way - eventually got it on the phone and found it was DOA - was sold tested. Not only that the the BGA balls where not great.
I've had the chip pulled off again and now have an RMA ( although no postal address Ahhhhh ) so dependant on postage I'll send it back.
What worries me is if I send it will I actually get a refund or fobbed off ? I wasnt cheap but for piece of mind I may just....
Over all...
Comms 2/10
Speed 1/10
Quality of Product 1/10
I would love to know about other suppliers as others have asked for items like chips....

Hi Friends,
I just ordered my HTC One XL LCD+Glass+Bezel and waiting for its delivery.
This is what I ordered:

Here in India this phone is not sold so spares are also not available. Fingers crossed.
Will update once I get the part. Lets see how it goes.

The 18th of June I ordered 2 new glass for my Samsung galaxy tab pro 8.4 and payed $70 for the glass and $40 for DHL shipping I got my packaged the 23rd of June so fast delivery.
But what I got was not what I ordered so I mailed them they denied first that they had done anything wrong, so I took some pictures of the wrong glass laying beside the right one, then they admitted they sent wrong item, and now the hell started.
I wanted them to send the right items, and then I could maybe send the wrong ones back after all it was only $70 in sell value,
they denied that said I had to send back first and when they got the items they should send me my ordered items.
I gave in and sent their items back for $26 it took about a month for them to get the items, now when they shall send me my items they say they only have white ones,
I ordered 1 black and 1 white, I said it was OK to send 2 white instead and I asked how they would refund me the shipping cost I had when returning their items, then they say that if I want refund they will send the items with snail post.
Now I starting to get really pissed what was started as something I thought was cheap, ended up quite expensive and I have still not seen what I ordered.
SO ALL I CAN SAY, STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY.

Ship to store only apparently.
Would it kill them to get a few into the stores by the launch date? Best buy takes forever getting products lately. I may go down to my local best buy anyway and see if they really have any in store yet.
Digital Man, I had mine shipped to my work address. I didn't have any problems with shipping.
35$ sales tax = ttyl . amazon sold it to me with shipping exactly 499$ not a cent more

Like das0527, I was able to request mine shipped.
Unfortunately for me, instead of my normal work location in Delaware (no sales tax), I'm on a work trip until early August so I had it shipped to me in Arizona (sales tax). $42.60 for getting it now with earning RewardZone points, why does everything always cost more during a work trip?
Order status is still "Order in process of being fulfilled; Usually ships in 0 - 1 days.". Will complain here if it doesn't ship tomorrow.
I got a shipping confirmation this morning, it should be here Thursday/Friday.

Oh, I didn't mean that it wasn't available for shipping. When you check to see if there is in-store stock, it says "ship to store". In other words there aren't any on the shelves.
Just meant that if they are available to ship to people and to the stores, just seems like they could bother to put a few on the shelves already.
The 32gb tf300 was available for weeks at microcenter before they ever got around to having them in-store at Best Buy.
I'll probably have one shipped - no problem - but I'm hoping they at least have one on display - I would at least like to see the new display before purchase. I'm curious to see how it compares to the Acer a700 before I commit to one or the other.
You see - thats the point of being a brick and mortar store - its the big advantage that they have over Amazon and a zillion other online retailers - at Best Buy you can actually walk in see stuff and actually go home with it. Best buy seems to forget this. If they don't have in store inventory, then they lose their advantage, and early adopters will all have pre-orders with Amazon.

And if I knew Amazon had some in stock, I would have ordered from there. When I looked at them, they didn't have any. Best Buy sucks because they don't keep anything new stocked lol. You're completely right.
But I did finally get to track my tablet. It's expected to be here Friday. It's completely possible it could get here Thursday, but I expected Friday.

Ok so they get them at their distribution warehouses from asus on the 16th as promised, you expect them to be on shelves across the country at 10am the next morning? Or maybe you'd rather they not offer any for shipment to you until they're in the stores?
I'm sorry, i'm an impatient person, but jeez. This is my B&Ms are dissapearing.
Ordered mine at 8am will me thursday. Baught prime dock tonight in the store.

Why shouldn't they be on the shelves? If they can arrive at your house, then they can arrive at a Best Buy store. Its business. If you're in it to win, then you make it happen.
Otherwise you become Comp USA or Circuit City or Blockbuster or Borders Books or Eastman Kodak or Fudruckers or General Motors or Friendly's or KB toys or Fortunoff or Filene's Basement or Kmart or 6th Avenue Electronics or ........Best Buy.......

Because they're not at your house, they were shipped to you the same day(or day later) than they shipped to the stores. Add to that that they dont ship one product to the stores they ship everything that needs to go out once or twice a week.
Honestly impatience isn't what hurts B&Ms, most people dont track releases and need items 10 minutes after they roll off the assembly line, the reason B&Ms are going out of business is the overhead of shipping and maintaining the stores themselves. as stated it's a shame because for some things it's preferable to have a place to try things out before you buy or quickly return or exchange items, but it's likely within 10 years that will no longer be the case due to the overhead that internet sites do not need to incur. However for good or bad within a couple years all internet sites will be required to collect sales tax, amazon i believe will start next year. That should help B&Ms to an extent.

However for good or bad within a couple years all internet sites will be required to collect sales tax, amazon i believe will start next year. That should help B&Ms to an extent.

Have you been reading this forum lately? 8 topics on the first page alone right now are soley devoted to tracking the release of this thing.
You're not the former CEO of Circuit City are you....sorry just kidding....couldn't resist.....
Oh and those lines for the iPud...thing from that fruit company....sleeping outside of stores waiting for them to open....yup people would never want something the moment it's released.....
Though of course you're right about overhead...thats the biggest killer of the B&M store...all the more reason that places like Best Buy have to work harder. Use their asset of a physical presence....or accept the inevitable now and become internet only....
I was being quite obsessive the last few days so I kept checking BB's website, then I finally saw yesterday that they posted the 32gb TF700 with "Available Soon." Checked back right at midnight and saw that you can order it for in-store pickup so today I took my TF300T back and exchanged it for the TF700. I lucked out and had a couple of days left before my 60-day return policy expired. I was scared they were gonna give me a hard time but they exchanged it, no questions asked.
WOO!

BEWARE: Enacting your Moto Care ADP is a nightmare

So last week, certainly by my own fault, my Moto X Pure took a swim. It got quite hot very quickly and then it was toast. No worries though. I bought the 24 Month Accidental Damage Protection Plan. At most, I was going to be out the $50 deductible and a phone for a short time, but that's the price you pay for diving in a pool and forgetting that your phone was in your pocket, right?
*sigh*
So upon placing my first phone call to Motorola, they looked up my IMEI, determined that I had the ADP, but that water damage wasn't covered. This, of course, angered me to no end because I specifically remembered this exact graphic from their website when I bought it.

Unless I'm misreading that, it says pretty specifically that liquid damage is covered. So they escalated my issue to another department, who got back to me the next day, informing me that the agent was mistaken and that I should be able to use my warranty through the website.
So I did. I filled out the request form, which was actually a lot simpler than talking to someone on the phone, and I was given an RMA. I was charged the $50 deductible and a $100 hold was placed on my card until I returned the other phone. Perfect, right?
Well, for about three days, the status of my RMA sat in pending.
And then I got this grammatical nightmare of an email.
Dear William,
This email is regarding a pending case about your Motorola device.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!
So I called that number within seconds and got a rep who told me that gentleman who canceled my RMA was mistaken, but he assured me that they'd make up for the error by waiving the $100 hold and only charging me the $49. He said that in 24 hours, I'd receive a code that would allow me to use Moto Maker to place a new order and it should ring up at $0.
24 hours later, nothing.
*sigh*
Called them. This rep said that everything looked good on my RMA and that the codes can take up to 48 hours. Fine.
24 hours later, still nothing.
Called them again! This red said that everything looked good on my RMA and that the codes can take up to 72 hours. WTF? It seems a day keeps getting added.
Finally, this evening, my code showed up in my email. Perfect, right? Of course not, because the code was only valid for $399, and did not include any of the add-ons, such as the storage and the fact that I had a wood back. So I called them again, got it rectified, got my order placed.
Estimated Arrival Date: October 20th

October 20th!!! And all that. Wow.
Oh well, it's beyond the 14 days, I'm locked in.
I like the thing, but I hope Nexus Protect is better for those who get the 6P.
So moral of the story, don't swim with your phone... Just kidding.

This is why I will prob buy square trade warranty for now I have asurion but they said if they don't have my device in stock they will give me similar device. It covers loss and theft.

What a nightmare! Glad everything worked out but still 20 days to get a replacement phone? Yikes

Square trade covers everything. If they can't fix it, They give you the money it would cost to replace it. No crappy refurb like with asurion.

I think this just convinced me to go the square trade route. I've been debating which way to go.
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
I am not convinced that everything is completely done on your end OP. Update me in 2 weeks when the order actually ships and arrives then I'll be relieved & happy for you. I'm not speaking negatively on you, I do doubt Motorola that much.
You have to figure.. the shipment date is probably the same for others who are ordering the phone. It's still a newly introduced phone in high demand that probably many are purchasing/customizing, so of course it won't ship asap. Without any customization ("base models"), it'd probably be shipped asap. I guess it's open to argument whether you should be given special treatment of a quick build & delivery as a replacement phone vs. someone who placed an order of a custom build prior to you and has to wait the same period. I wouldn't exactly fault Motorola for that, as it's a custom build vs. other manufacturers having just one build type that'd be quick to deliver. Would it be any different to someone with SquareTrade being credited back for their original phone, which they'd in turn use to order the phone through MotoMaker again?

I think you've made an excellent point.
I've used Asurion, Square Trade and now Moto Care. I can say Square Trade is the best of the 3, after reading the Moto Care experience here. The Square Trade check, could be used for a different device, which adds an advantage. You can even pocket the money, they don't care. Asurion will scour the earth for a refurb and Moto is going to give you another Moto.

Just want to add fuel to the fire. I have Moto G 3gen bought from Motorola UK customised one. I had to wait for 13 days for phone to arrive but that's fine only 2days overdue. My problem started when I decided to cancel my order only 2 days after. **** it there is no way I had to wait for 11 days! Then it would appear very simple because I had to call them ask for return lable for 24-72 and job done. No way! I am waiting now for 224 hours to be precised. 2 chats 3 calls and every time tey would add some more more and more time to wait. They promised me things like : next day, its on the way, we are sorry let me just bump you up in the queue and so on. I have decided to write them official letter with consumer protection act added on it and what are my right and they responsibilities so i got reply from them same day. At least something I can have track of because now it's sitting in my email. Story is not over yet 24 days passed. I honestly don't want ever to make another order from Motorola . II MA considering moto x pure to buy BUT I seriously put off by the whole thing and never want to go through that again. I think I am just going to get Nexus 5x for the peace of mind. I really like my phone but I hate anything related to moto costumer service. Why I have impression it has to do with Lenovo acquisition.

I got a couple new ones. But, I got plenty refurbs that I had to send back. It's a crap shoot. In one instance, I got 4 bad refurbs in a row. By the time I got a working phone, it was 2 weeks later and the reason I got a good one was because I went into a corporate sprint store and told them what happened. They personally gave me the new phone. It was ridiculous. The cost of their insurance isn't worth the hassle of guess of the replacement will work...unless your phone is lost or stolen. Plus, if you swap carriers, they're not going to cover you.

I made the mistake of buying moto care with my order. I've chatted with 3 reps to get refunded for it. The first said I had to wait until the order was delivered. So, I waited. The next told me that I'm going to be refunded and then I got an email with instructions to RMA my device. The next told me he fixed the previous one's mistake and I'd be notified in 24 hours. Well, it's been over 24 hours and no notification.

I feel your pain. I've had my phone for 8 days. Something is definitely wrong with it when it comes to data. Its very slow and sometimes it completely drops off. It is not my network or area. I have talked to 7 people, chatted with one, and wasted 100 minutes of my life so far just trying to get them to ship out a replacement under the 14 day warranty. I am now at the point I have to wait for a call back monday or tuesday because my case is "escalated". I think they are waiting for me to be out of the 14 days. It's a shame. I had a problem with my Turbo and It was the easiest replacement ever. 10 minutes and I had a new phone coming. Its gotta be a lenovo thing. I think I'll be buying nexus's from now on. I'd just sell this thing in a month but I spent the money on the moto care.
@WilliamRBR just out of curiosity was you device rooted? I know it doesn't change the process but I want to make sure they won't give us the run around when it comes to warranty
I used Asurion 2 times for cracked screens on two different phones and I feel that I received new phones. If they were refurbished it was very hard to tell as they looked and worked like new. My experience with Asurion has been very easy, smooth, and quick for warranty service. I do recommend them. Also, if I am not mistaken, they are the only one of the three being discussed here that honors stolen and lost phones! So you pay more for the deductible but it is worth it if you think someone might steal your phone. Dropped Square Trade and went with Moto for my Pure. Hope I never have to use it! Wife and daughter still on Square Trade.

Network/signal antenna coax cable needed

I broke my network/signal antenna coax cable while doing screen replacement.I was able to get some signal after grounding and soldering a small wire,but apparently the network(data connection too) is not as good as when it was with the coax cable(of course).
I tried searching the accessories forums and all relevant threads,but couldn't found any link that isn't dead.
After googling,I could find some sellers on eBay.com and banggood.com,but sadly they don't ship to my place(that's rude of 'em).
Now,I really am in need of that coax cable to really use my OPO as daily driver,while travelling or using data connection(switches every time to 2G)..it doesn't really come handy anymore.It is not anything firmware related,that's I'm sure of,because before that coax cable incident,everything was working fine.
That's my sad story.. :crying:
If anyone know of any site or seller that sells that coax cable(except banggood and eBay.com, you know the reason),please do let me know so that I can use my OPO as daily driver again,otherwise I'll have to buy another device(which I really don't want).
how about aliexpress

Hello..
Thanks for the recommendation,but do you think it will be possible to get just one piece? I really don't need another antenna,just a single piece would do.
P.s: Just did a quick search in aliexpress and found that the link you shared is the only product available,so I'm just gonna order that,as it is much cheaper than the ones available on eBay.com and eBay.in(would've been quite feasible,but prices are just too high).
Actually it is first time I'm ordering from Aliexpress,and it is good to see that there are some buyer protections,but the max time of arrival is estimated as 60 days..they'll initiate refund if product is not delivered in 60 days.I don't think it would take that much for the product to arrive from China to North India.The max I can think of is 3 weeks.Have you ordered any item from aliexpress? If yes,can you tell me how much time it took for your product to arrive?
Thank you,again.
Ps2: I don't know why it is mentioned as WiFi antenna even though WiFi has nothin' to do with that antenna.That antenna is related to network only.
Ps3:Bought it at about 270INR.
Ps4: Sh*t happened! There is another product in 0.89USD!! Should've bought that!!
Is it somehow possible to revert my payment and cancel the order??! Please reply Asap..!
Ps5: I was able to cancel the order,the status now says 'order cancelled,refund processing'.
Do you know how much time it could take for a refund?
Also, @evronetwork ,you use aliexpress a lot..maybe you can help me with this?

You can't really predict the arrival time of the order. Its very variable and depends on the shipping method. I have ordered a lot from aliexpress and some orders arrived within 25 days while some other took 45+ days and there were 2 which never arrived. But there's nothing to worry because if you don't receive the order you will get an assured refund.
Your refund should get processed within 10 days. You can trust aliexpress though, they are professional enough.

Stopped recently using aliexpress and warning others to do so. I've used aliexpress for years well... if a seller is bad(cross roads with about 4 of them - really really bad not just negative) ...you can lose money, aliexpress protects sellers rather than buyers
So unless you don't mind losing some money avoid them

well if you have TOO many evidence ...you'll get your money, you might lose 20-30 days but you'll get it
Now if you want to cancel or send the item back for some reason ..and the seller is bad? you'll lose your money
You see you can open a dispute to cancel or send the item back BUT if the seller doesn't accept this, aliexpress doesn't do anything ...they say talk to the seller and when the time is out and the dispute has to close? it ends with sellers win - So he gets the money, amazing? ...sure it is
Cancelling an order and getting the money back it's up to sellers choice, if he's good it's ok ..if he's not well expect to be @!#@!#%

Okay,so I got the pm from seller.She says 'Since you cancelled the order just after placing it,we never got the money.Your money is safe with Aliexpress.They'll refund the money to you after processing it i.e., within 10 days.If you don't recieve your money even after 10 days,kindly contact Aliexpress customer service.'
Does this actually mean I'll get my refund? Tbh,I don't know what's making the refund late..I mean I cancelled the order just after placing it,so the refund shouldn't take that long,right?
I seriously should've used eBay and paid a few more bucks.Their service is much better imho.

Yeah if you cancelled before they press send you are safe - They usually press "send" even if they send it a few days later, sometimes 10+ business days later - You're in luck
Ebay is safe but usually more expensive and this paypal convertion is "stealing" for sure but better safe than sorry I guess - Usually ebay sellers don't ask for any proof if things go south, in aliexpress? expect both seller and aliexpress to ask for as much proof as you can get and you might be lucky
Just wish ebay had the variety that aliexpress has, aliexpress has much more products and little parts than ebay like 10 times more
When repairing, tablet, phones, photocopiers, laptop, printers etc ...you need little parts most of the time and having hard time to find one single place like aliexpress did - but enough is enough, can't waste money or time to prove I'm not an elephant.

Hello again.It's been 8 days and I still haven't got my refund.The seller said that I'll get refund in max 5 days.How can I contact Aliexpress about this issue?
Now,seriously,such waiting time for getting a refund for order which I cancelled as soon as I placed?! Disgusting!
Ps: Apparently,they were having national holidays in china from Oct1-Oct8.Just great!
Could this be a reason for late refund processing?

Don't worry banks do take a bit, for 45 days since the first purchase you are secured(more or less) - also in aliexpress they do check the messages between the buyer and the seller - so don't worry too much

Looking to find a Reputable Seller to ship to Canada

Hi
I am looking to purchase the new Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra China Version and have it shipped to Canada.
Could someone suggest a reputable company to buy from?
Looking for the 16GB RAM 512GB version.
Thanks!
liaow(.)com/
The site doesnt seem like much, but I bought my Oppo Reno 10x from them last year. Shipping was very fast, took only a few days to get to Ireland.
I've read good things about tradingshenzhen. I haven't used it yet but will probably buy from there.

I have ordered this phone to the UK thanks to this post. I have bought from China before and expect no hassle especially being in the UK (and hope any USA buyers have no problems!) but thanks for this post as it helped me made my mind up. Plus they take Paypal, and I have paid via credit, so if anything goes wrong they can get invovled
Edit: so today I had an nice email from Liaow. Just checking I know if the phone will work in my country, warning me about customs tax if they open it, just everything really. Made me very confident, they have some shipping delays due to Corona but we're still looking at one week in total. I was very reassured, the guy had perfect English and checked on things most suppliers just would not bother with.

The site doesnt seem like much, but I bought my Oppo Reno 10x from them last year. Shipping was very fast, took only a few days to get to Ireland.

Liaow also shipped my phone last year with DHL. I orderd and on the 8th of July I got an email from them with the waybill info and also a photo of the package itself. 3 days later on the 11th of July I got an email from DHL for customs duty to be paid, it was 47 euro. So 3 working day shipping from Hong Kong, that's what I call fast shipping.
That Mike from Liaow is the nicest guy ever. Not only did he contact me before confirming my order to make sure - a nice thing to do for international sales but not something I've ever seen before! - but he's kept me updated every step of the way with photos of the packaging, the address label for me to check and even weighing the package for DHL!
Liaow.com really went above and beyond. They even put the price of the phone as much lower than it really is for customs.
I got mine 16GB RAM from ALI BABA , seller name is "Fujian Century Sea Power Co., Ltd. Manufacturer, Trading Company"
For me, the recommendation goes to Wondamobile - 4 days shipping time from china to central europe, quick and helpful customer support and they promise to pay import fees themselves, should any arise.
I've got mine from mi4canada.()com and I have only good things to say about them (the shipping was with dhl express and it took 4 days to deliver). It's the second phone I've purchased from them.
I got mine 16GB 512GB edition from liaow.com, Mike- the site owner is the most responsive and helpfull man. I will buy one more silver tomorrow.
