Why do AliExpress packages take so long?

 

How to speed up delivery time on Aliexpress?

The first thing of course is knowing exactly what you want.

Many people make the mistake of ordering too many different items at once and then imagine that they can get everything shipped together, but in reality this is almost impossible for a variety reasons.

Therefore I recommend looking very carefully through all your wishlist before deciding which products are high-priority/needed first so that you don't end up with 19 Toms shoes waiting to be delivered only for you to realize 7 months later that you only liked 5 of them and wanted a refund on the other 8.

Once you know exactly what items are important, be sure to mark them as such when placing your order so that the shipping time is not affected by these changes in priority: I have also noticed in Aliexpress many times it's better to buy everything at once rather than getting each item shipped separately due too delays or unexpected costs that may arise in individual orders.

Always keep track of the final shipping costs and don't forget to adjust your order if you see that it's going over budget!

Why do many Aliexpress sellers take so long to ship?

Well, this is something that's pretty common in Aliexpress, many times the delay turns out to be rather undeserved as it can have a lot of different causes:

First and foremost I will say you cannot exactly blame Chinese companies for this problem. All they do is simply ship from China where everything takes time no matter what so there are few things you could immediately take action on if problems arise. 

Second thing is all other sellers who sell the same item as you are a very large problem, but unfortunately the only things I can do (as far as Aliexpress is concerned) to solve this issue would be to report them and hope they will get banned from selling on Aliexpress.

Why would an order on AliExpress take 39 days to process?

The simply answer here is if it's shipped from China: When some Chinese sellers decide to ship internationally, they don't usually know how much time the entire shipping process will take until they count on receiving their money. This problem can also be solved with using a service such as FBA which limits you to only importing items that have been directly imported into United States.

  The other frustrating part about Aliexpress is not knowing when an order will actually ship . Some items have been shipping for days, weeks and months without having their item status updated on AliExpress. 

As long as you order in time before the product price goes down or if there is a huge discount due to sheer stock flooding etc., this can be expected from China Marketplace companies but here's hoping that things will improve since I am sure many people do not like waiting when an item seems dead just because it hasn't yet shipped.

How long does AliExpress standard shipping take?

Aliexpress standard shipping takes 2-5 business days . This is very quick compared to most eCommerce sites. If you have items that take longer, your best option would probably be FBA due to the patience that you need with AliExpress' time constraints for international shipping and a painful process if an item becomes overfilled in transit or even shipped to the wrong address etc..

How long does it take to receive an order from aliexpress?

Again , you will likely only ever experience standard ship times, either if the item is shipped from China directly to your residence or ordered with a FBA service. 

When an order ships, it will take approximately 2-5 business days for it to arrive at its destination depending on where a seller has chosen their shipping address in AliExpress' country specific dropdown box and when they have used expedited shipping as well.

Why did AliExpress take my money and never sent my product?

Well, this is a bit of the jury is still out truth for AliExpress but it seems that some people just can't get things shipped from China to them. Then again, I have placed orders in which my items are being sent back and not labelled as such . You may want to try contacting your seller via their package tracking if you don't receive anything within 5-7 business days of placing an order – or even while they're awaiting shipping .

Chances are, you will get your item. A lot of people say that they have shipped products back and got their money refunded withing one business day while others report a 5-7 businessdays turn over time after the product was shipped to them.
