What is the least shitty shit store? Never had a good experience with any of the shops such as, wish, aliexpress and the rest of em. But which one of them is considered the better one, or more likely to actually arrive with the correct item? Is etsy considered better than the rest? Are there any of these "low priced" stores that actually have some sort of guarantee to deliver what is purchased? Let me know your experiences and tips!

AliExpress screwed me recently. A vendor sent me the wrong items. I mean, they weren't even the same kind of items. I disputed it with the vendor and they said they'd sent the right things, so there.

I opened a case with AliExpress. They asked me for a whole lot of information, some of which didn't make any sense, along with some pictures. I sent them everything. They sided with the vendor.

Fortunately, I had paid with PayPal. PayPal looked over the information from both sides and promptly refunded my money.

I don't expect to be doing business with AliExpress again any time soon.

How did you pay with PayPal on AliExpress? They haven't supported it in years?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

I think some vendors support it and some don't.

They started to accept Paypal a few years ago, actually.

But there was a long time I didn't use AliExpress because of that.

It's the default payment option for me.
