Please note that AliExpress is a company that provides sales services via web portals; mostly for small Chinese businesses offering products to international online buyers. So if you are happy or unhappy with one specific seller, it doesn't really say anything about the next one.
I just received a smart phone "Elephone G1" from the seller "Electronics Park". It is a very nice phone at just USD 60. The service from the seller was excellent: they replied (by chat) within seconds and the phone was shipped within 24 hours after order. Freight charge with online tracking service was included in the price.

Tip for consumers:
Check reviews carefully. It may be worth some extra money to buy from a seller with better rating. Don't fall for "to good to be true" offers. Don't order too many items at the same time. Be patient - if you can't wait for delivery a few weeks, go to the local shop (and pay twice or more).

I have never owned a knockoff watch before, so when I ordered a Rolex Oyster Perpetual, the expectations were very low. I was really prepared for the worst.

The "regular price" was USD 197.56 and the "special price" USD 59.99. With another 20 % extra discount, I arrived at USD 47.99 incl. Registered air mail with tracking. New customers receive a USD 5.00 coupon, but the code was not accepted when I placed the order (probably because I already got 20 % off).

It was shipped after 10 days and after another 8 days it arrived (to northern Europe).

The watch looked really nice and worked as it should! It was really a positive surprise! I am sure owners of real Rolexes wouldn't agree, but in my opinion it is good value for money. The only negative thing is the bracelet, which is of inferior quality.

Afundeal seems to be affiliated with PriceAngels, which has quite a number of bad reviews on this site. (PriceAngels seems to be shut down now.)

Popkind is the watch section of (former) PriceAngels.

I ordered one men's watch and one women's watch, but the order stayed "in preparation" for many weeks. When I asked them, they informed me that one of the items (the men's watch) wasn't deliverable. They asked me if I wanted to wait, store credit or refund, and I replied I wanted refund. They repeated this question a few times and I repeated the same answer. When the answer finally sunk in, they immediately shipped the watch in stock and refunded my PayPal account.

Due to this delay, total delivery time became 42 days. The watch I received looked quite okay, but is was much too big for a (normal) woman, and the bracelet couldn't be adjusted.

Tip for consumers:
- Order one item at the time
- Order watches with leather band or bracelets which are clearly adjustable
- Pay with PayPal or equal
- Keep in mind that "in stock" doesn't necessarily mean that the item really is in stock…

In May 2014 I ordered a cheap 7" phone/tablet, which PA shipped out within a few days. It arrived three weeks later (to northern Europe) and works perfectly – no problem whatsoever. Recently, I placed another order for ten different items including a 5,5" phone. One of the items delayed the order almost four weeks, so the total delivery time became seven weeks. One item was missing (charger) and one was broken (cable connector). I informed PA about that, and they took my word for it and immediately issued a store credit (you could choose between credit and refund). Normally, their service department reply within 24 hours (and tell you to be patient).

Among the items I bought was also a 32 GB micro TF / SD card; I tested it with special software and the capacity was as specified. Most probably it is an original Kingston memory card.

Tip for consumers:
- Pay via PayPal and make sure you don’t miss the deadline (45 days from order) for starting a PayPal refund procedure.
- Don’t purchase too many items on the same order.
- Be patient!
