Alibaba Reviews Summary

The overall reputation of the company is mixed, with some customers appreciating the variety and affordability of products offered. However, significant concerns dominate the feedback, particularly regarding customer service and support. Many users report frustrating experiences with delayed refunds, ineffective communication, and unresolved product quality issues, often feeling misled by the company's assurances. The Trade Assurance program is frequently described as inadequate, failing to protect buyers effectively. This combination of positive product experiences and pervasive service challenges suggests a need for improved customer support and better oversight of suppliers to enhance overall customer satisfaction.

Love Alibaba!
August 31, 2021

Very user friendly site, easy to talk to suppliers, although some suppliers do not respond but that may be due to the quantity being ordered. Super quick ship and products are great quality. Would add that it's important to communicate with sellers to ensure you're getting the quantity and the correct product. Alibaba is the service I've been searching for years! I love it! My customers love it - which is even better!

Common Sense
August 30, 2021

I submitted complaints which are obvious and that the Alibaba refused to acknowledge, of the poor product quality causing me harm (cut to my thumb). Buyer beware.

I have only recently worked with the Suppliers of Alibaba and if you are a Seller anywhere on this
Planet you will surely want to invest time in examining what Manufactures utilized by Alibaba are inventing and creating. Be it a new Tennis Shoe a Wallet or anything else that you may wish to Sell, Buy Or Create. All at the Best Prices. To know the Current of Online Sales you have to See much product not matter what your line is. Alibaba needs only one picture to find you a Supplier! You would do well to consider the Expertise and Experience of Alibaba.

Casual attire
August 28, 2021

I have been on Alibaba looking into clothing and so far my experience is wonderful. I would say make sure to look at the size charts and from there you will find everything that you can think of. My orders came on time and I'm loving the quality. Working on a new order now, and excited to look into more styles.

Their Trade Assurance Protection is horrible. I ordered a sample of a customized iPhone selfie case, and the paint came with a bunch of holes and one of the LED lights was broken. I opened a claim and Sunny is name of the claim manager and she is terrible at her job. Bad communication skills and I don't think she understands English very well. She kept sending me copy and pasted messages even though I kept asking specific questions and she just wasn't answering those questions. She then closed the claim stating that I "never uploaded any evidence" even though I had uploaded a ton, i think she just didn't want to deal with my messages anymore since she didn't understand them. I had to open a second claim and I asked if I could work with someone who isn't Sunny, but it seems like Sunny is the only one that works claims. This time she took a total of over 5 days to reply to me and finally answered my questions sufficiently and offered me an $80 refund for an order that cost me $110, and I accepted, only for her to respond saying that my order is no longer under the protection period because too much time has passed. Like seriously?!? Even though it was all YOUR fault? If Sunny had just looked through the evidence the first time, and answered my questions, I wouldn't be in this situation! My order was still under the protection period when I opened the claim, orders should be protected while a claim is still open, the protection period should only apply to opening claims on the first place, that's what all other companies do. For a company worth billions, it's ridiculous that this is their policy. I guess now I know why they're worth billions though, they're taking advantage of poor small people like myself. I tried contacting their customer service to explain the situation and they told me I would get help from the manager of the claims department, but I just got a message from a regular customer service team member.

BUYER BEWARE…. STAY AWAY
August 24, 2021

Purchased product from Weihai Huifu Sports Goods Inc. Finally shipped the product after numerous excuses and delays. Tracking number was provided for my information. I was satisfied at this point. 3 weeks went by and the UPS tracking number showed "Shipment Cancelled ". Contacted shipper… they said it was on its way. Just disregard tracking number. Really? Seriously? Requested for a full refund. Seller will give refund less shipping cost. Really? Seriously? Alibaba trade assurance sided with seller. What a total SCAM. STAY AWAY. PayPal please help me get my full refund. STAY AWAY FROM ALIBABA AND WEIHAI HUIFU SPORTS GOODS INC…. TOTAL SCAM
