realistically wish just buys from really bad vendors off alibaba. i only use aliexpress for my orders to brazil. as they will help you out with customs forms, also i can message vendors to see if they are the factory or a 3rd party vendor for whatever they are selling. ive always had a positive experience with aliexpress in brazil and north america. i prefer it over amazon.


Yes indeed. I bought some electronic parts for my Windows computer and AliExpress was very helpful.
Thanks for your post!

I was looking at Amazon for some sun glasses that go over my regular glasses. They cost 12,00 dollars but the shipping and taxes cost more Than the product Total of $26.00 dollars. So it look like they include the taxes. Just wondering if there are additional cost from what people seem to have experienced.

There shouldn't be:  if you give them a Brazilian delivery address and a CPF, they estimate the taxes and include them in that adder.  They're usually pretty close; if they're low, they eat the difference, and if they're high, they refund it to your credit card.  I've had small refunds on two purchases so far.

Ding,Ding....Round 1, the Victory goes to the Reciever....41 days later the first order arrived...placed order October 31, arrived December 11 via Sedex. ...Signature Required and No EXtra Cost...So far so good...it was a article of clothing, so let's see how the Electronics make....and guess what "The Package was Not Opened" shades of Disbelief. .I finally get to open a unadulterated package...lmao..

NEVER USE THESE PEOPLE,NEVER,NEVER,NEVER....
This been the Worse On Line Shopping Nightmare 31 orders total.  I began ordering with this Wish Company in Early November , I have had 3 packages, stolen,lost pilfered or only a higher power knows, 3 packages delivered , miracles do happen..the other 25 packages  supposedly/allegedly are in my town according to the website fake tracking...kkk.....Slow Delivery...Slow Delivery.....the refund process is cumbersome and repeatative, slow, you cannot reach a live person, the response letters and emails are generic and canned, there is no Customer Service or Care...I will never order from  company again, order at your own risk   NEVER,NEVER,NEVER ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY
