Escrow is one of the best thing to use for orders in china as if you have a problem the seller doesnt get paid.

And if the seller does not deliver, do you get your money back without a lot of trouble?

Never had an issue where a seller didnt send an item. I have had a couple issues where the item wasnt described and I ether got my money back or was send different items. If you do your research and take some time to figure out who is legit and who isnt than you shouldnt have any issues. Also the sellers with phake merchandise are usually the ones where you will run into issues.

AliExpress is a part of Alibaba and is fairly safe. Escrow adds a layer of protection. Still, you want to look at the seller's feedback, etc. to make sure they are legitimate before doing business with them. You only want to file a claim or refuse to release payment to the seller as a last resort.

You still need to be careful to deal ,mostly they will let seller win for quality dispute.

You can give a small order and then foward for more.

Order 1 or 2 sets are not too much useful,as you know,he can afford to give you good quality for only 1 or 2 sets, and then give you not good on the bulk order.

But if you order 10 or 20 pcs,then he have to give you the normal quality and then you will know the final result 80%

One of my clients buys from AliExpress and we take the delivery - They always seem to arrive when they are supposed to. No personal knowledge but I guess it's about what you buy and who from

Aliexpress works well for me, i've never had a problem with them so far, just make sure to check the feedback on the item you are purchasing

Like all overseas sites - it ultimately depends on the actual seller you partner up with.

I have ordered from Aliexpress 4 times with solid results.
