Safe as long as you use a good payment service…such as PayPal. But it may take you months to get something you order.

Wouldn’t recommend
As said before.
3-4 months for anything to arrive.
Remember you get what you pay for.
But maybe not from them.

I have ordered many things off of AliExpress expect 3-6 weeks for delivery, depending on what you buy. Some of there crankbaits are very good some of the colors are a bit funky. I have some Northern Pike crankbaits from them paid $2.98 ( similar to Rapala at $12 plus ) and they are way above my expectations and the action is great, same for Walleye and Crappie crankbaits.

Just recently had my credit card info stolen when I used a dealer located in the USA. Except for a couple of sites I trust , I only order from dealers that take PayPal. Especially if they are out of the USA .

all the time...all kinds of stuff; even had several custom guitars made


always arrives before estimate date; look at product page

seller funds are not released to seller until you mark item rec'd= perfectly safe

fund your paypal w/ a credit card for more online protection


last cpl items took 10-14 days or so...

whatever you do be careful with Bang good, they stuck me, when i complained to Paypal, paypal favored them, and gave me a bunch of nonsense, lost out 40 bucks

I’ve literally spent thousands on aliexpress. I’m a purchaser for electronics and modules etc.
I buy samples and bulk orders. Occasionally I order the wrong thing or the specs were listed incorrectly (which is why I get samples), but I’ve never been burned.
Shipping usually has options and seems to be pretty accurate (now that our ports aren’t all backed up).
I have several credit cards on file with Aliexpress, never used paypal here.
Oftentimes Amazon has the same items for a little bit more and faster shipping so check that.
If this is a Christmas present, order asap.

PS their fishing stuff has been disappointing

I am pretty sure most of the start up recently vendors in tackle have some dealings with them at some point
Bought had a bunch of rods made to resell here in the states one time .
You can get customized squid rods that are basically crappie rods built stupid cheap in bulk .
