I know people prefer to complain instead of act, but what is something people don't like but has an alternative?

AliExpress is the alternate for Amazon if you can wait a month to get your crap. All the products are exactly the same except £2 instead of £20.

I wouldn't buy any electronics from AliExpress though.

Cheap electronics is all I buy from Ali exp.

Every order I've ever made on Ali:

  1. Me: Place order
  2. Ali: it will be there in a month
  3. A few weeks later, Ali: Your order was cancelled.
  4. Back to Amazon

But if someone makes a version of Ali that works in the states, Amazon's online store is already a dinosaur and can easily be dominated.

really?

Ive ordered probobly 100 things from Ali. Takes a while to arrive, but only had a couple items disappear in shipping, and never had them not at least ship.
