Re: Aliexpress.com, user experiences?
Hello Everyone,
I have been ordering parts from Ali for about three years now. I have received close to 100 packages from different vendors ranging from valve bases to small transformers, Fibre optical (SFP) adaptors, PIC Programmers, and various ICs. All but one order did not arrive here but when I opened a dispute at Ali I got a refund within a few days.
It does take quite long sometimes for the goods to arrive here despite the fact that I live very close to the Frankfurt airport. I suspect some of the delay is probably due to the customs processing of the goods upon arrival. I usually have to wait for 3-8 weeks until I get the packages. I try to keep the value of each shipment under €22 because up to this value (including shipping) I do not need to pay any import duties. This is the current regulation in Germany anyway.
