Most of Ali express's merchants are out of the United States. That is why you get such a good deal on the merchandise. However they give them 2-3 weeks to process your orders and then another 8 weeks for delivery. almost 3 months to receive your order and the website will say 12-21 days! Very few merchants are honest about their shipping times so don't buy something with the intent of receiving it any time soon. Read the reviews carefully! A good rating does not mean they are reputable! I read the negative reviews too late and now regret having to wait 6 months for Ali to fix shady merchants attempts to scam money from me...
