be one of the best that you can shop from and also get the value for your money trust me when I tell you that I've gotten literally everything you can think of from Alibaba when you're from clothes shoes on wears my filming setup because the less I'm currently filming with was gotten from Alibaba my studio lights were gotten from Alibaba I have three lenses from Alibaba this really cute background that you're seeing right here I got most of the things I need from Alibaba including this flower this stable lamp and this really cute net stuff was also gotten from Alibaba the only thing I've probably never gotten them are edible items and that is because I'm unable to do that even my baby my baby bouncer was cutting from Alibaba now I've been shopping on Alibaba for over 10 years now I think the first time I shopped was in 2013 okay that's about yeah 2013 2014 let's say 9 to 10 years so I've been shopping there one of the reasons why I like shopping from Alibaba is because they are very inexpensive and I always get value for my money for example this lens I'm currently filming with cost about 150 on Amazon and as at the time I got it three years ago I bought it for about 70 dollars from Alibaba now if you want to find out how you can shop and how you can ship directly to your dust there if you want to stick around to the end of this video because I'm going to be sharing with you tips and tricks on how to shop seamlessly without getting scammed and if by chance you also get stamped on Alibaba I'm going to be sharing with you how to get a refund a hundred percent refund it doesn't sound like something you are interested in then sit back and keep on watching the first thing you want to obviously do is to download the Alibaba application and you can find this on Google store or on Play Store so if you use an Android phone you can download on Google store if you use an iPhone phone you can download on your app store you can also use um their web version you can download on your laptop or you can always use their web version right so when you do that I have an account with them so I'm just going to go into the account right here so I can share with you some of the things that I want to talk about so after setting up your account you want to make sure you verify this because Alibaba takes security very serious so oftentimes whenever you want to log in or if you log out of your phone by chance they would always send you a code before you can access your account back and if you're unable to do that it's going to take you a very long process before you can verify before you can get your account back or to verify that you're the owner of the account something like that so make sure to use an active email address and verify your account now when that is done I'm just going to use this this account right here this is my sister's account that I use to shop from Alibaba can easy that I have a whole lot of messages that I've not even responded to and that is because I tend to buy a whole lot of things from there I've gotten her shoes literally anything you can think of the only thing I never buy now human being okay so the first thing you want to do after setting your account is to search for a product now depending on what you're selling would determine what you are going to search for so let's say you are into ads and you want to get s from Alibaba all you have to do is and and I want to assume that you already know the type of hair that you want to buy now let's say for instance you do not know and you don't even know the difference between Brazilian remy Indian Japanese Vietnam you get you can always just try out random names random ad Types on Alibaba say raw Brazilian hair you would see a whole lot of suppliers and you want to chat with any one of them and say oh I I need hairs and I don't know the differences can you please explain this to me and they will take their time one thing about them is that they always take their time to explain plane and there are some of them that are very very rude what they will do is that if you are stressing them too much it will block you and that is why you also have the block button block them if they are stressing you okay so you want to take your time to look through all of these suppliers and chat with at least 10 to 15 of them that way you can get to understand whatever it is you want to buy from different people because some people always know how to explain that other so you won't try as much as possible to have so many options so after searching for the products you want next thing you want to do is to request for samples now if you want to skip the old samples face let's say you already have an idea of what you want to buy you are so certain for example if I want to buy this lens all I have to do is look for the lens on Alibaba and because I already know I want to buy a young new lens and I bought this lens from New York no including the one I'm currently filming with I'll just go ahead tell them okay I want a sample and the trick is that you always tell them that you have a store if you tell them you don't have the story will assume that you want to use it personally and they won't sell you one single item so what I wanted to buy this name I said oh I have I have a filming store and I buy different lenses so I want to get this a sample how much can I get it and what are the things that I need to do so they'll sell this to me at 06 fries okay so the person selling on Amazon is also probably getting from Alibaba and still I'm buying at the same price the person on Amazon is buying for example when I wanted to buy this lens it was about 250 on Amazon but I got this for 70 on Alibaba I got two lenses and I got two lights and their tripod as well directly from The Young new store on Alibaba that is absolutely amazing when Amazon was selling at about double the price so the trick is to always request for samples even if you want to start buying it in a large scale try to request for samples but if you want to skip the old sample process you can go ahead to order directly which I am not going to advise so now you've now that you've contacted several suppliers you want to check for their credibility you want to know if these people are people that are trustworthy people you can do long-term business with and the way to know this is by two things you want to make sure you're chatting with someone that has this verified badge on their profile that way you can know that this person has been on Alibaba for a long period of time and you can trust the person another thing you want to be conscious of is to check if this person has trade Assurance as you can see in protection with trade assurance that way when it gets Camp you can get your money back and it
