A few days back, we published the best first class Chinese stores to do online shopping. However, it won’t be possible to get everything from those two stores alone. Also, there are a few sellers who have build up a reputation for good service and we believe they have great potential to turn out to be one of the best stores online. In this article, we are going to list these stores, which have shown great promise and your shopping experience will definitely be positive in most cases. The reason why we didn’t add it to the first class list is because they still have to build the kind of strong customer base and reputation as lightinthebox and dealextreme. But, that doesn’t mean they are bad and if the store has made it to this list means, you can relax and buy products from these stores too.

NOTES:

I know there must be some things that you may not understand in this post. So, I’ll explain them before you check them out.

First of all, each review has two options. First is a full version where I have given some details. However in the second option, i.e. SCORING, you can find all the relevant information in a table with their respective scores.

In the first option, which is a lot more informative, I have added some links to their deals pages as well as ALEXA + Facebook source links, in case you are interested in checking them out. You can also check out the review links from both resellerratings.com as well as trustpilot wherever available. Finally, you can even check out the different famous media websites which have covered these sellers along with their source links.

However, those who would like a concise version can skip directly to scoring to see where the seller ranks among others.

SOME TERMS EXPLAINED

Alexa Traffic Rank is a rough measure of a website’s popularity, compared with all the others out there on the internet. The lower the rank, the better.

“IN THE NEWS” means the number of news media websites that have linked to these resellers. Clearly, the more the media coverage, the better the reputation of the website. Hence, we have added that parameter too.

Finally, to those who are wondering about the scores, I have given them according to the best possible figure in each parameter. For example, those websites which have experience of 6 or more years get a score of 4-5, while those relatively new get around 3-4 points. Similarly, for contact, those websites which have live chat and are available from Monday to Saturday naturally get more points than those just available on weekdays.

Also, we need a big sample to get a proper review rating of a website, hence, I have used the average scores from resellerratings.com and Trust pilot. In case you have never heard of these websites, they are well known for reviewing e-commerce platforms. Since, I have added source links, you can check them out directly from the reviews section of each seller.

Given that reviews and media attention are very vital for an online store, I have given more points to both the parameters. So, the reviews will be out of 30 and the media coverage out of 20 points.

It took a lot of time to finally complete the research and organize everything. I hope everyone benefits from this for their online purchases.

The post BEST CHINA STORES ONLINE (PART II) appeared first on Gizmochina.

In the past few years, we have received plenty of requests from our readers to compile a list of the best Chinese stores to buy online. Today, there are hundreds of different options online when it comes to buying Chinese gadgets and electronics and most of the time, users are confused as to which one to select from these long list of e-stores.

Pricing is not the only thing that matters! You need genuine good quality products, fast shipping as well as an excellent support system to provide the best customer experience.

So, today, we decided to simplify things for you. After researching for a long time and getting feedback from our readers, we have compiled a list of the best Chinese stores to buy gadgets. These are reputed sites that have been in the market for a long time. So, they are well established and safe to buy your favorite products.

Lets not waste any more time and move to the list. This is the first such article which will focus on the best China stores. We have found two sites that have always been reliable all these years and hence, they have got our special first class status.

We have reviewed the two sites, namely lightinthebox.com and dx.com on a number of categories and you will know why they can be regarded as the first class Chinese stores that you can rely anytime.

1. Lightinthebox.com

BACKGROUND:

The Light in the Box company and online store were created in 2006. The Light in the Box company is located in China, and the president of the Light in the Box company is Mr Kevin Wen.

Light in the Box contact information:

• #56 Dong Si Huan Zhong Lu Ocean International Center A Building 2506-2507 Chao Yang District, Beijing, China
• Phone Number: 8610 5908 0008

Lightinthebox is not just an electronics store. The company has a very wide variety of products on their website, all with free and fast shipping.

The website has been in the market for the past 9 years and has established itself as a reputed and reliable online store. Most of the customers who purchased from lightinthebox had positive things to say about the company. The fact that the company has been around for almost 10 years now is a good indicator of the reliability of the store.

RANK:

Lighinthebox has an alexa traffic rank of 523!
The website has 3.6 million Facebook fans worldwide!

PRICING:

The company has invested a lot of money to generate this kind of trust in the market and that’s why many of the listed products are costlier than other cheap websites. From our research, many of the electronic items on the store were about $10-$15 costlier than competitors.

However, the difference is not surprising given their reputation in the market.

SHIPPING OPTIONS:

Customers can choose from these three shipping options

• Expedited Shipping: takes 3-5 business days to arrive
• Standard Shipping: takes 6-30 business days to arrive
• Super Saver Shipping: takes 10-20 business days to arrive

 REVIEWS:

9/10

Lighinthebox has received majority of positive reviews. Most of the time, the items are as shown on the website and reviewers have particularly pointed this out. We found that a majority of the bad reviews were for the late shipping times and even for that we have seen the seller contact the reviewer for support.

Overall, we feel lighinthebox is a great website for online buying and hence, we give it a first class rating. This means you can buy the product without worrying too much about the quality or support for the product as in most cases, your orders will be shipped fine without any problems.

For more reviews, check out ResellerRatings, trustpilot.

Unfortunately, even with hundreds of sellers in the market right now, reliability is hard to come by. As a result, we find it only fair to give it a first class status.
