Hi,

I'm new here and have just started dropshipping. I know some of you think different things about AliExpress. Yes, there are a lot of scammers there but they also have serious suppliers.

My experience so far, is that I don't go for brand names. I have found couple of suppliers who really deliver their products; products I've never heard before but delivers good quality.

My question is, is AliExpress so bad?

SaleHoo do also have a lot of suppliers in their list but it's so hard to find the same products that AliExpress have on their listing. I don't know why but I find it hard to find them.

That's just my 2 cents.

Hello and welcome to the forums, Mkkapakka :)

Yes, everyone varies in opinion regarding Alibaba.com and AliExpress.com it might also have to one's with personal experiences.

You're lucky to find reliable suppliers, as it is a big challenge to actually verify the suppliers there. Sorry we do not know if and which of our suppliers are also listed there.

Cheers!

For information,
@Alibaba (not in Aliexpress) companies mostly don't do dropshipping, They are mostly manufacturers or broker which deals mostly in large numbers and at that type of transaction buyer have to arrange shipping, custom fee's etc.

For next part that about products it's about drop shipping companies and some times its about copyrights but mostly it's about companies that don't want to make stock on the item that sold slowly. And yes that's hard part of drop shipping.

Hello mhasdemir,

Thanks for pointing that out but yes we know that the companies in Alibaba.com may not necessarily be on AliExpress.com but AliExpress happens to be owned by Alibaba so basically they are one and the same.

Cheers!
