What lol. Ali Pay he is trying to register is completely different from AliPay method on Ali Express. Brother you never made any AliPay account, you just used AliPay method thats why it didnt ask you any document. Yeh isi tarah hai k aap daraz pe credit card use karein toh aap easypaisa ya jazz cash kay through pay kartay hein, cahay aapka easypaisa ya jazz cash mobile account hai k nahi. Ali Pay (equivalent to Pakistani easypaisa mobile account, SimSim account, etc) is right now only in few countries, so agar aap uska account banana caheinge bhai Pakistan mei beth k toh nahi banay ga cahay bazat e khud upload ho jayen

Price tag is not $5, its $33. Shipping is $5. Custom duty is not applied on shipping. Its applied on value of product.

The box is big so may be they were curious to find out what kind of sorcery is inside the box. By the way what is the actual total price of all these items in box?

[ch.talal]

Yeah right. It's the gateway used inside AliExpress. It's automatically setup for you unless something triggers their system and then they will start messing with you by demanding identity proof etc.

[leopard411]

Yes, you summed it up well now

In case of lost/damaged/wrong item, how do you know if seller sent replacement item or not?

Does it appear as new order placed (replacement) or they provide tracking number?

Like what is the proof that replacement is actually sent?

I got dodged by seller once, he kept saying that he sent replacement, but in real he didn't, when i asked him tracking number repeatedly. Had to open dispute.

Your name and billing address in account must match the name on your credit card. If they are asking for ID Card as proof; then the ID card should be of the person who's credit card is being used.

I've had countless such verification and never ran into any problem. Sending them incorrect document pictures will only make them more suspicious and they may even block your credit card for any further use on their website.

Dear null null, in addition to what Nabs has said, your profile picture of AE acct didnt match with pic on your CNIC, etc in this case. Also i hope your actual name isnt Null Null, so that wouldnt had matched too..... Summing up, being in Pakistan you wont ever be able to made AliPay acct, i made one once i was in China and they asked many Chinese resident documnets then....

Do you have any other credit/debit card?
Make a new account from different PC and make sure that VPN is not turned on and you are signing up from Pakistani IP address. Use your correct Name, and other details while signing up. Use your different credit/debit card for transactions.

On Pakistan Post tracking site:
2018-04-19 18:34
BEIJING, insert item into bag in origin country

It seems like your product is now with Pakistan Post since 19th of April. The record in Pakistan Post only starts appearing when they receive the package. Might have lost it.

By the way what was in package?

[s15]

It's sent to airline for Pakistan on 21-04-18. It has not been received by PakPost yet. Once sent to airline, it takes ~2-3 weeks for items to reach Pakistan.

Don't worry, just wait 5-10 days more , you will get your order. If custom catches it, you receive a custom detention letter at home.

Delivered by air transport is basically sent to airline status. Don't know why they use confusing term.

My colleague ordered 2 items after me and one item is already received. Since the status is sent to airline since 18th so it had me worried. My raspberry pie from USA is already here and sonoff switches are not here
