It is for customs. If you dont want to provide them these, use paypal. however every possibility that you'll be asked for adhaar/pan once item reaches indian customsworks without problem.
no issues with refund also.[DOUBLEPOST=1527233446][/DOUBLEPOST]Shocked!
Banggood.com asking for Adhaar & PAN numbers during payment.
I was ordering a 3D printer kit.
Didn't complete the payment.
Really feeling disturbed :-(

I think this is for high value items or restricted itemsWhen did this start? there was no such thing till 2-3 weeks back when i got my last shipment.
Only for few items. However If you're getting anything from DHL/fedex, they ask for KYC even if its a tv stand or monitor arm. I recently had an issue with fedex who were charging extra 3k in the name of gst for an monitor arm I ordered from amazon usaWhen did this start? there was no such thing till 2-3 weeks back when i got my last shipment.

Hey i wanted to buy something from aliexpress and i read that they undervalue the product in receipt so that it doesn't go through customs.
Is it true?
If it is then how to tell seller to do that and can we set the value or do they do that?
Lastly i live in Delhi, which shipping method ships directly to Delhi- aliexpress or china air mail?
Has anyone been able to use that $4 coupon on first order?
Has anyone been able to use that $4 coupon on first order?
It was $5 with shipping charges and it was not going through.I think this $4 coupon was on sign-up recently. Trick is to order small value item before using it. IIRC, I ordered stuff worth $0.1 and then used this coupon sucessfully.
It's not just the account it's your debit/credit card/wallet/bank that you use. Also the phone/pc/ip address they track all. They know more then u know.It was $5 with shipping charges and it was not going through.
I tried $10 and still it wasn't going through.
Customer care told me that the system was detecting that this was not my first order so they flagged my account which was strange because i just created the account.
Does anyone know if they are using AI for customer care?
The answers were instant, they took less than 3 seconds between most questions.
I even asked 'are you AI' and i got the answer instantly- No, i have feelings like you do.
Strange answer isn't it?
Hello experienced Aliexpress Buyers and members, Please let me know...
I ordered something which actual value is 15 USD and shipping option chosen with AE Standard Shipping (1.98 USD) out of two which is Turkey Post (1.66 USD) because AE Standard shipping provides successful delivery for my earlier orders...but today I surprised to find out Seller shipped my order via Turkey Post.
Is it the same AE Standard shipping? - Looks like seller become greedy for just the price difference...What to do now ?
Hey mate,
So if I understood correctly, you paid the additional shipping charges of $1.98 associated with Ali Express Standard shipping and the seller shipped it through the lower cost shipping channel and that too being Turkey Post?
I have read bad things about Turkey Post handling products to India. They seem to delay stuff indefinitely. I guess now there's not much to do but to wait it out and see if the product reaches you within the stipulated time frame. Otherwise seller will have to return your money in all probability. I have never ended up with Turkey Post after choosing AE Standard Shipping. It has either been Singapore Post or Hong Kong Post. You can ask the seller once why he used Turkey Post instead of AE's Standard Shipping and more so since you paid for it! I doubt it will yield much though. Waiting seems to be the only option here sadly.
I hope the product is not too valuable.
Thanks for the reply....Yes this is exactly what happened.
So now I have to wait 58 Days 21 Hours 25 Mins to see to end of it - This is so frustrating.
Seller did this because of 0.32 $ profit (AESS cost 1.98$ and TP cost 1.66$ )
