How to buy from china electronics cheap online


  • Aliexpress - cheapest, only card payment 
  • Gearbest -  best for buying phones, camera and laptops and accesories as well, also offers Paypal payments 
  • Banggood - a bit more expensive but offers Paypal payments and has good customer service
Standard shipping takes from 2 weeks to 2 months.
When buying more expensive stuff it is worth paying for a tracking number.
For cheap 1-5$ products tracking cost its almost as much as the product.

On aliexpress you can get international tracking even with the no cost shipping method.
