I have been less and less impressed with Alibaba every day. I am currently trying alternatives. Between more and more cheaply made Chinese products making their way on, to suppliers have dozens of listings for the same products, such as my last order, Alibaba seems to care less and less about protecting buyers and vetting qualified suppliers.
Tip for consumers:
Use the site? Alibaba, consider alternative services with less clutter from businesses that have only been on Alibaba for 1 or 2 years.

I purchased an iPad mini screen for $127. The part arrived without the adhesive strips necessary to but the screen back together. Once the sent that separately I was able to install the screen properly to discover the touch screen did not work properly. This cost an extra $13.75 to ship back, roughly 12% of the original cost of the defective part. Customer service is extremely hard to get a hold of. Not sure how difficult the process is going to be. As of now the part had been delivered back to them.
Also, do not trust the reviews on their website. I left a product review and it does not post if it is one or two stars. You also get a 'warning' asking if you meant to rate the product so low.
