AliExpress: lost package
An item that did not arrive or was lost within the guaranteed delivery window shown on the order detail page is covered by Buyer Protection.
What does this mean?
Grade C (use with care: check the source of each value before relying on it). 71% of 7 sources are the organization's own pages or government sites; only 7 sourced values, so the entry is thin.
Collect
- order number
- guaranteed delivery date from the order detail page
- tracking history
Steps
Check the guaranteed delivery window on the order detail page.
If the item has not arrived within that window, contact the seller, then file a Return/refund request on the order.
If AliExpress does not refund, dispute the charge with your card issuer.
