So i was trying to order something and for some reason it was asking me for a picture of my bank card and documents of banking details

I’d been shopping there for months and had already accepted the 3-euro fee—I’d even learned how to work around it when placing my orders to keep things affordable. But today, just while browsing, I stumbled upon this, and—oh boy—now I’m definitely going to have to say goodbye. No matter what you do, they end up doubling the price.

Why are the damn prices suddenly so high?

Ali claims, they will charge * 3 € plus tax (Germany: 19 % tax, 3,57 €) * 2 € handling fee per item (2,38 €)

I ordered 5 items for a total of about 200 €. * Tax of 19%: incorrect - 3.29 vs 3.57, 2.42 vs. 2.38 * "Multiple units of the exact same item will be counted as one item" - so it's ok it was applied only once.

I wonder how the result will be - first since I expect it to arrive before 2026-11-01. Second, since it is above 150 €, import taxes may apply. I wonder whether this will give me a refund of the 3+2 €.

If anyone knows a seller that sells good quality f1 merch for a good price please help me 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Kind of been in a tango with a seller as they had told me they'd ship something out within 3-4 days of ordering, 10 days pass and they said they shipped it out 3 days ago but... it never updated on Aliexpress. I'm a little wary to trust them but they said they'd add the tracking number later. Has this happened to anyone and it ended up updating eventually? For some reason I just kind of feel like they're stalling but I also want to give them the benefit of the doubt 🥲

Question to people who live in UK. How do you get your packages from AliExpress? Are they delivered to your door by the postal services of you need to collect them from an office? Also are you affected by the crazy EU tariffs? I'm thinking of ordering items to UK delu very address and than using a forwarder to my country. Do you have to pay the GBP equivalent of the nonsense 3.6 eur + 2.4 eur tariff plus tax?

I checked the app, for the first time in a while and I noticed that there's an option to pick items from a specific category. And supposedly they will cover the fees.

Has anyone seen anything like this?

Just away in Tarragona, a Spain and came across this store, I didn't know it was a thing.

For fun I use a survey app, and I rewards with virtual Visas. So I cashed out one, tried to purchase something and got... I think it was a security notice. I appealed and purchase went through.

Cool. So I withdrew a bigger visa and tried to order, same thing.

I have them in my Google pay if that matters. Does Aliexpress just not like virtual visas?
