I also started to use AE, I feel a bit queasy about it for no good reason, but for some stuff AE is much cheaper and I don’t see the point of giving 30% to a middle man selling Chinese stuff they got of Alibaba on Amazon.
What I discovered is that they have warehouse in Europe so even though it’s not next day shipping, most stuff take no longer than a week sometime 3 days. I do remember the time when everything took a month or more.
Their app, though… Designed by a fucking lunatic, and the amount of scammy shit in there is astounding. Like products showing for $3 but when checking the product you realize the $3 is for an accessory and the product shown in the picture cost 20 times that. Most products have 3 or 4 variants which can be completely different items. There are literally no way to easily know what you’re buying without carefully trying to decipher broken English and voluntary confusing description.
Yeah, the app is batshit and has got much weirder over the past year or so. It’s now rammed full of competitions and ways to waste your time trying to get discounts that you’ll never actually achieve.
There’s also some really odd stuff on offer on there, which I kind of enjoy finding.
