AliExpress Review

General
1

I bought this watch on AliExpress from China at about $4. The other charges came to about $3.75, and finally I had to pay Kshs. 100 pale Posta GPO for the parcel. So in short, from China to my wrist, this watch cost me Kshs.875. I later on went to shops along Moi Avenue inquiring on how much such a watch would retail at, and the price was constantly in the range of Kshs. 2,500 - 3000/. The watch is as exactly as it was in the internet. Am satisfied. And the process was very very easy. You just register with Mpost and create your own address number that uses your phone number as your address in the Private Bag. You make payments on Mpesa to AliExpress, and proceed to wait for your product. With the app, you can track your property as it comes. It took about 40 days, though. Thats the downside[ATTACH=full]239600[/ATTACH]. Once your stuff arrives at posta, you are notified via text to go and pick it. Its that simple.

Am stoned as I write this, hope it makes sense.

Hio watch, jina imeandikwa hapo ni porn ama naona zangu?

6

what is fake about it? it is an original chinese product worth 4 dollars. fake would be Gujji or Rplex

7

GUjji or Rplex would not be fake but original Gujji and Rplex.

Fake would be Rolex which looks like rolex, labelled Rolex but sells at KSh 800 or Ksh 5000

9

you’re right as well

10

to be fair, shipping time varies based on the shipping option used by the seller. mine never go beyond 30 days. 3 weeks max.

Battle of wits

Wachanga upuss saa zingine.GUjji or Rplex are meant to confuse consumers and therefore qualify as fake.

13

You are assuming that a guy in the village anajua what Gucci and Rolex are? So how is that confusing them when they dont know what those are?

Gujji also means something else in different parts of the world especially India

If you have never heard of Patek Phillipe and You are sold Ratek Philippe for 2k, were you confused by the retailer?

14

Your confusion doesn’t render them fake

15

What option do you use with them?

16

i normally go for the free option (this is Kenya:D) but based on what you’re buying. since i buy mostly car parts, maybe it’s different from watches and other goods.

17

Wrist will turn green
