How to avoid returning packages on AliExpress?

To avoid returning a package on AliExpress, take some precautions before placing an order. Here are the essential steps to follow:

  1. Carefully read the product description. Make sure every detail matches your expectations. This reduces the risk of errors during the purchase.
  2. Check reviews and ratings from previous buyers. These reviews will give you a clear idea of the product’s quality and the seller’s reliability.
  3. Contact the seller to ask questions about the product or shipping conditions. This will help clarify any doubts before purchasing.
  4. Understand AliExpress’ return and refund policies, as well as those of the seller. This way, you’ll know what to expect in case of any issues.

AliExpress Return Policy

When you place an order on AliExpress, you can expect to receive your package between 3 to 60 business days. This information is usually specified in the product description.

The return policy is heavily influenced by the conditions set by each seller, but AliExpress enforces general guidelines to ensure a minimum level of service.

Return Timeframe and Conditions

AliExpress allows you to return an item within 15 days of receipt, for the following reasons:

  1. The item does not match the description provided on the product page.
  2. The item is defective or damaged upon arrival.
  3. You changed your mind after receiving it.

Shipping Countries and Delivery

The shipping countries depend on the seller. Most sellers offer shipping to European countries, but this must be checked for each product.

Shipping Costs

The shipping cost varies depending on the size and weight of the product. These costs are clearly indicated on each product page.

It’s important to consider these fees, as they are generally not refunded in case of a return.

Conclusion

To avoid inconvenience, it’s essential to properly prepare your purchase on AliExpress.

However, if you eventually need to return an AliExpress package, follow the steps we have outlined and check the seller’s conditions. This will ensure a smooth and fast process.

Keep in mind that thoroughly reading descriptions and reviews helps limit unpleasant surprises and makes returns less necessary.
