Online purchase through AliExpress Dedicated Thread

Package is always packed safe even from china post however if handling is rough it may get damaged but its rare. And yes its safe to type payment details. The payment is held in escrow once you receive the item safe then its released to the seller. just buy from a sellr whose rating and feedback is the best and u are good to go.

For more safety try to use a debit card rather than a credit card to minimize any possibility of fraud.

And do pakistani custom walay thulay become a hinderance? And ive heard that one can get a new similar product for free if the one youve received is faulty or broken? Is it true? And do the postmen ring the bell or throw the parcel wherever they like?

Pak customs are useless. They charge duty according to their moods. But duty is not charged on small items and less quantity. Yes its true if u get faulty item you will get a refund. Its quite safe amd reliable. Incase of single item the duty will not be charged and it will reach you on ur doorstep.

Like. If i order 4 to 5 different items together. The chances of custom interferance increases. Should i order stuff one by one individually?

[KeiWorks12]

Order those items from different sellers then you will not have to pay the duty because sellers will process and ship the goods on their times so items will reach u individually

Customs is like lottery. I have had packages containing dutiable items checked by customs and not charged any duty and sometimes they will slap you with a big duty on something that costs very little.

Did you show them the invoice to try and get the duty reduced?

you should have checked on pakistan customs website the official duty on the device.....Also, when the customs people charge duty they mention the PCT code, check to see from website if your device falls under that category...

they don't always purposely overcharge....it's sometimes hard for them to figure out what the device is...there's just so many categories and items in pakistan custom tariff list....

Let me see....
Yes it actually took that custom walay uncle a hell lot time to figure out in which PCT code my item falls in.... he had a Pakistan Customs Tariff book with him and took him 15 minutes to find the appropriate code....

They wrote that PCT CODE reference on the documents which were to be handed over to the officials, so I don't remember what code it was

Next time you are in customs, keep a copy of the custom tariff document in your cell phone. It will help you save time in finding the right PCT code.

So here is the final Result from me. I ordered many products and received all which had tracking Number but did not received any of those without a tracking number. I mean lost 3 products and when i opened a dispute one seller increased the protection time and other 2 refunded the price. But on the other Hand have received about 11 products which were provided with a tracking number. So you never loose any money if you do not receive a product but i will suggest every one should buy stuff with tracking number.

bhai try karo or hamain bhi batao

[whiteangel]

I don't think ordering 4 or 5 items together would increase chances of customs interference. I've ordered several items together, the only items that seem to be checked by customs are the ones in larger packages. But sometimes even the larger packages get through without checking. All my small packages get through without opening and checking by customs.

But once customs gets hold of the package, expect the package to be delayed by weeks. I have a package that's been sitting in customs for more than 20 days. It was stopped for customs check on 27 Sep and on 20th Oct they put some duty on it.
