<\/span>What is DHGate?<\/b><\/h2>

\"Logo

Its direct competitor is theref<\/span>ore Aliexpress<\/a> and offers similar services: A large catalog offering any type of product (furniture, clothing, sports equipment, electronic equipment) <\/span>9 out of 10 <\/span>DHGate sellers<\/b><\/span> are Chinese, and most of the products offered come from small businesses,<\/span><\/strong> not from factory-made products.<\/span><\/p>

Some sellers use DHGate<\/strong><\/span> to sell excess product that is not sold at a more affordable price.<\/span><\/p>

If you want to be the intermediary between seller and buyer or simply to be supplied<\/span><\/strong> with products constantly, then DHGate<\/span><\/strong> will not be able to meet your demand.<\/span><\/p>

In general, the products offered are one-offs and therefore not posted at regular intervals. (one-time supply<\/span><\/strong> and not systematic).<\/span><\/p><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

<\/span>\u00a0Is DHGate fair?<\/b><\/h2>

\"Safe

Don’t worry, if you order what you need, you will get it!<\/span><\/p>

However, it is possible that the quality<\/a> you want is not what you expect, because it is such a <\/span>dense market <\/b><\/span>that there is an incomparable diversity of quality for each product.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>

This makes it a very criticized distribution channel<\/span><\/strong>, with a 2-star review on Trustpilot.<\/span><\/p>

But we must make a distinction! These criticisms are not against the platform, but against the seller who does not care about the quality of their product.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>

DhGate<\/b><\/span> is not the seller, it is only the <\/span>distribution platform<\/b><\/span> that seeks to delight both parties: buyers and sellers.<\/span><\/p>

That is why they have put in place <\/span>extensive safeguards<\/span><\/a> to avoid these very annoying situations.<\/span><\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

<\/span>Is buying from DHGate safe?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>

You should not think, due to the pejorative opinion, that DhGate<\/span><\/strong> is a bad distribution site, contrary to what you may think, the site offers a<\/span> guaranteed return and refund service<\/b><\/span> when a product does not match what you thought you would receive.<\/span><\/p>

Even if a dispute arises between you and a buyer, <\/span>DhGate <\/b><\/span>will sort it out and if your case is favourable, will offer you a refund.<\/span><\/p>

This <\/span>security for the buyer<\/b><\/span> is not limited to that, DhGate will keep the money invested by you until your product is delivered, so you will have to<\/span> confirm your receipt<\/b><\/span> and explain that you have received what you wanted so that the seller can be paid.<\/span><\/p>

DhGate<\/span><\/strong> then plays the<\/span> role of the fraud eradicator<\/b><\/a> to ensure the most reliable service and can suspend a seller’s funds in case of <\/span>scam or inconvenience<\/b>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>

To sum up, DhGate<\/span><\/strong> is safe because :<\/span><\/p>
