Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed the app, selection, etc. Until I got to the ordering. Everything appeared to be in order, but when I placed my order, I received a message that I would have to wait for an agent to confirm and contact me. The next day, I received a message that my purchase was "accepted" but that shipping would be more than double what I had seen in the order. Their excuse was because "branded" products are more sensitive so they cost more to ship. Dishonest and deceitful supplier.

Buyer beware! They have tons of listings that allow you to place items in your cart, checkout and pay. When you pay, there is a 3% transaction fee from Alibaba. Then the suppliers will message you saying their prices have increased, the items are out of stock or shipping costs more. If you don't want to pay the increase, you cancel the order. Guess who refuses to refund the transaction fees. You might think this happens sometimes. Nope. So far it's been 33% of the orders I've placed. SCAM!

This app is most disappointing this year compared to 2018. Buying products for my personal use is now a futile endeavor. It has proven to be an unnecessary hassle and too much of my valuable time was consumed. The number of options are very limited pertaining to the number of brands, colors, design, and size. Previously (2018) I was able to order just what I needed for my personal use. I see the prices of their (limited brands) products and shipping have risen dramatically.
