Anne: Beware of aliexpress. What some of these vendors do is buy up a $#*! pot of factory rejects, stitching no good, cloth problems and then they sell it as new. If you do decide to purchase always get an order number and do not work outside with the vendor using Western Union. I placed an order in January 29 and still have no received my product. I even had a friend in China call several times and get a run around bull$#*! story from the seller. Aliexpress does not reply to my complaints. Western Union fraud department suggests that I file complaint with local authorities. WU is useless.

Two things u have to remember first is be sure you communicate with the supplier about the sizes you need secondly never buy from the cheapest one but buy from the one with max orders and reasonable reviews

I bought from a "reputable" seller as well and got a bad deal. If $30 and the LONG wait are worth the risks, go ahead. Just keep in mind that if the merchandise is not as pictured, the refund process is not as easy as at other sellers and you may not get a full refund. But in your case it's a bikini and I don't hear many complaints among my friends about swimwear. It could be fake but you hardly notice and will like it anyways. Diving suits are expensive and I'm a bit skeptical about the quality, yet you could gamble and strike a deal. I really hope you won't be disappointed. Please, keep us updated in case you decide to buy from this seller. Good Luck!

It's usually much smaller than US size. The pictures deceives you too. The materials are cheap quality. Unlike Amazon, you can not return or refund. Sometimes you can get them replace but you need to send them tens of emails...

Do not shop there. The actual product you receive will not be of any quality and will not be exact to what you order. They ignore requests for refunds.

I support and trust this site. If you are prepared to wait for your order via free delivery it takes a while, if you need them ASAP then I will advise you to pay the shipping cost.

I buy so much from this site. I've never had any issues with quality, size or delivery. I've purchased everything from clothing to electronics. Happy customer here. Plus if they were bad they would not be up there with the largest selling sites on the internet.

I don't know who these 1 star folks dealt with, but I have had really positive experiences with my buying. Of course, it takes a while, but, OMG, it is coming from China, with FREE shipping on most items. Use common sense! It takes awhile. When ordering clothes you have to use common sense. Chinese sizes run small. Duh! Returns are not easy, but sometimes the items are so cheap it is worth the chance. The quality of anything I have ordered is ALWAYS worth the price. I order a lot of cell phone cases at $2-6 each for a 6 plus. Most are leather. Buy one in the States for those prices. NOTHING on this site is over priced. You ALWAYS get what you pay for, and better. I have had two items not arrive, but I got a refund. Overall, I have saved hundreds of dollars on my items. It is worth taking the chance! I ordered a bathing suit that was too small, It was $16. I gave it to a friend. The quality was excellent. I reordered because the suit was worth well over $32. The savings, by far, out weigh the losses. I give this site 5+ stars!

The whole Aliexpress Portal is now flawed... The vast majority of the Vendors have NO STOCK, when you buy off them they then try to buy the item cheaper making the difference as their profit... That is Ok if you are willing to wait ages for a item that may or may not turn up...

Don't buy. You won't get the goods or your money back. You will just get ripped off and fobbed off

Know your size and track the shipping of your purchase I say buy a similar item from a more reputable vendor.

This seller has no decent feedback for this item I would not be buying from this seller. Do a search of this item and then sort by number of orders and then pick the seller with greatest feedback and buyers who have posted photos of what they receive

Be aware that there is NO guarantee of refund. You send your money and take your chances. If something goes wrong (like not getting your order) you will likely NOT get your money back.

That item has 3 votes of feedback but only 1 order was made. I wouldn't recommend buying any item without actual feedback. Always check number of orders.

Sizes are hard to pick. Generally on the small side from china but not always. Transit times are often really long. Never dealt with this particular seller. Check their feedback. You have buyer protection which can be extended if the shipping times are long.

Its from China so long delivery, its not expensive so the risk is not high unless $30 is lot for u. Quality is hit and miss but most clothing around the world comes from China! I've personally not bought clothing so difficult to tell really. Sorry thats as good as it gets

The seller feedback seems ok. Warning that it may take about 2 months to arrive. And if you end up not liking the product or there's damages/not same as picture, you can always open a dispute and get refunded
