Alibaba? Anyone Know How to Use it?

11 replies
Any regular users of Alibaba?

Any products out there that explain how to use it the best?

I feel you can find ANYTHING on there, and just to prove my assumption, i typed in COCAINE.

Sure enough, someone is trying to sell cocaine on there.

ehehhe.

I mean, it just doesn't seem regulated and I need to know how to buy and who to trust. Any tips?

    Even I haven't got any clue about Alibaba. But you name it and you can get it out there - not sure how reliable it is

    LOL I dont think that is the place to buy that kind of product.

    Just sign up for an account and place a want ad. Then you can contact the sellers and buy from them directly. There isn't a shopping cart or anything. It's a marketplace where you negotiate your prices directly and pay them direct.

    The main problem is finding trustworthy sellers. To do this, look for ones that have been on the site a long time (5-10 years). You can also do this by ordering via Paypal for your first order (you will probably have to pay the fees), using your credit card as the fund source. This way you have 2 avenues of dispute (Paypal and your card) if anything happens. After the first order or two, switch to bank transfers.

      I looked on there a couple of years back when I was doing a lot with Ebay never bought anything seemed to be a lot of scamers all I would say is be careful if someone is saying they can get 100 iphones for $100 less than RRP each then its probably a scam, my advice would just to be careful and if it sounds to good to be true it probably is, however that said i'm sure there are some great deals on there.

    a friend of mine uses it all the time, in fact he wrote a book called Ideas Man, it\'s pretty good, by Shed Simove. He buys stuff from there like novelty joke gifts. he\'s actually in the UK advert for it.
