Delivery, indeed, can take an indefinite time, and there are several different reasons for this that affect the time. In the article we will cover all the reasons why your delivery may be arriving so long and what exactly you can do to accelerate this process. Let\u2019s take a look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

10 Ways to get a faster shipping time on AliExpress<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The shipping method you choose is the main reason for the shipping speed you experience. As a rule, two most important factors influence delivery:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1) Delivery method: sea, air and road. Air shipping is the fastest shipping method, while sea shipping is the slowest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2) Delivery service: the choice of the delivery service is also an important decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So let\u2019s take a look at how you can speed up the delivery of your product taking into account the two above mentioned factors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Buy from suppliers with local warehouses<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you want your product to arrive as quickly as possible, the first thing you should consider is taking “local delivery” products that ship from your country’s warehouse. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You don\u2019t need to wait for the delivery from a Chinese supplier, because your supplier is simply closer to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to find local suppliers? For example, for the USA, you need to view products from the Mall section or use the “Ship from” filter when searching for a product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

But you should remember that there still are some sellers who are not honest and still ship from China in order to get more orders, so even when it says \u201cShip from the US\u201d on the product page, you must talk to a supplier and make sure that the product comes from your country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find listings that are \u201cVIP\u201d for the product you are promoting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

VIPs are AliExpress product pages, usually created by suppliers for drop shippers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

AliExpress suppliers do this because you, as a dropshipper, are likely to become a regular customer if you sell with drop-shipping. Accordingly, a VIP page is your privilege as a regular customer over other ordinary one-time customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have been working with your supplier for a long time, then ask him to make you such a page. However, you don’t have to actually be a regular customer to have such a page. You can buy it yourself on AliExpress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The VIP page will help you reduce your shipping time on AliExpress because some suppliers give your order a higher priority, which means you can reduce your order processing time. Your order (as a priority) will also be sent using special shipping methods such as YunExpress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A VIP page can offer your product at a lower price, and vendors won’t add any extra promotions or invoices to the package, which is a good benefit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Find the best shipping method for your country<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

3\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many suppliers on AliExpress offer a whole list of possible shipping methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Although the platform always calculates the estimated delivery time, in reality the time is often inaccurate and the time frame for the product to be delivered is very wide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most common delivery method indicates an expected delivery period of 20 to 40 days. However, often there are two identical periods of 20-40 days side by side, but with different delivery methods. In that case, which one would you choose?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s better to check all the options based on your own experience. Sometimes AliExpress Standard Shipping is a better choice, other times it’s ePacket, so if you’re deciding which one is the best shipping method to use, read honest reviews from people in your country so you can get an idea of \u200b\u200bwhich shipping does the job really fast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Examine several providers to see which one offers the shortest processing time.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

4\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact is that some suppliers quickly process your order and ship it within 1 or 2 days, while others take about a week to review and ship your small order.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Pick one who has a faster time results in a shorter delivery time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Check out feedbacks on AliExpress Suppliers\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

5\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As mentioned earlier, reviews are a very important element in the buying process of any item. Reading reviews will save you time, money and nerves. Be sure to take the time to read seller reviews.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Often, buyers indicate the time in which the shipment was made and delivery in general. You can ask a question to multiple users to collect product and vendor information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check the ranking of AliExpress suppliers\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

6\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to all the above points, test multiple suppliers to see the detailed rating of their stores. If the delivery speed is below 4 points, then it is better not to buy from this seller, most likely he is delaying sending the goods.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

There is an Aliexpress built-in system where you can watch the rating and shipment time of a potential supplier, but there are now many applications such as Alitools that track the processing time of a particular supplier, so you can compare vendors by their rating and processing time before purchasing, which prevents you from making a big mistake and is a really handy invention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Message your supplier before ordering with them<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

7\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before you decide to buy a product, negotiate with a supplier asking a couple of questions: about a discount or the quality of the product, and you can also ask if he can arrange a faster delivery method for your country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can let him know the reason why you ask: you are planning to do a direct delivery with him or it\u2019s simply the birthday of your son. The supplier will be interested in this, otherwise they will lose the client, so your negotiation will have a clear purpose and it will make it easier to cooperate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Many suppliers agree and choose YunExpress or 4PX shipping methods, which is a valuable advantage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check the weight and volume of products before deciding on fast shipping<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

8\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When ordering heavy items, you should take into account delivery time, because it depends on the volume of your purchase, and accordingly, the service of your delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Check whether the supplier offers to track information<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

9\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Choosing suppliers who offer tracking information is highly beneficial, because it makes all the way of your purchase clear and understandable. When your supplier freely provides you with the information where your purchase is, you are calm and relaxed, because you\u2019re simply aware of what is going on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Choose the most appropriate AliExpress shipping options<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

10\/10<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are options such as the services of some international postal companies, including EMS and DHL: their shipping prices are slightly higher than standard shipping, but this is justified by fast delivery and guaranteed safety of the order: the parcel will not be lost anywhere in the mail or on the way, it will be tracked and definitely taken care of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Benefits of faster shipping on AliExpress\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s have a look at what faster shipping method gets you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Gives Customers a Great Shopping Experience\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’ve ever waited a month or two for something, you’ll understand why this item comes first. No one wants to give away their money and wallow in the unknown without being able to control it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fast delivery makes it possible to track the purchase, and be calm that it will arrive soon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Has a Positive Impact on Your Conversion Rate\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will agree that purchasing is made in a few seconds, but before that there is an agonizing search for fast delivery and a supplier with a good rating. And if they find it, then they recommend it to others. Quick response and offering fast delivery to the clients converts to getting more customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It Reduces Cart Abandonment<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a supplier offers a fast shipping option, customers don’t abandon their carts. Instead, they complete the purchase process immediately.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Improves Customer Loyalty\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Loyal customers that like the way a supplier treats them and communicates during the whole way of ordering can also leave positive reviews on their page. Positive reviews will help the store become known.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It Reduces Inventory in Storage<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

If customers like a product, but it has slow shipping, the product will remain in storage. When sellers ship their orders quickly, clients always have room to store new products.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Increased Visibility<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When a seller offers fast shipping to many buyers, leaving them satisfied, their rating improves. So, the search engine results favor them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long delivery times preventing customers from buying<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

According to statistics, Americans do not want to wait 3-4 weeks for their package if it is possible to deliver it faster: a maximum of 7 days from local storage is \u201cmore real and reliable.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only 24% of Americans using Standard Shipping are satisfied with the quality and delivery time of their orders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

78% of Americans in 3 out of 5 cases choose EMS, Epacket or DHL shipping, preferring to pay but being able to get it faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it worth starting dropshipping with AliExpress in 2022?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

AliExpress is getting larger every month, the quantity of sellers is growing, but not all of them can really treat their customers well enough, which makes the number of potentially reliable sellers really low. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you offer your client a fast delivery, be polite and answer all questions honestly and transparently and make a good connection with your supplier \u2013 you\u2019ll see how great it works when doing dropshipping business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let’s be honest, AliExpress shipping times can be long and exhausting. It’s not easy to find an honest supplier with fast processing and shipping that sells a winning product at a reasonable price. However, it is important to remember that this is not impossible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

By using the various tricks and tips in this article, you can really cut down on AliExpress shipping time and win.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FAQs<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

What is the expected time for a product to get delivered through AliExpress?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

AliExpress delivery duration is dependent on a country, where a product is shipped from, the delivery postal service and time of processing of the product in each step of shipping. Speaking of the US, it can be about 7-40 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese suppliers are not the best option?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chinese suppliers are too far away from the US which makes all the process of sorting and custom housing take up to 50 days, that is why if the product isn\u2019t unique and  you have an opportunity to order from a local US store, you\u2019d better consider this option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Who Ships Faster Between Alibaba and Aliexpress?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Alibaba has a different way of business: it\u2019s focused on the wholesale market and ships to wholesalers faster, while AliExpress has a lot of retailers and mostly works with them. So, according to what business you have you need to take into the account their differences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Are the Common Shipping Methods Available on AliExpress? <\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are a lot of them: Aliexpress Standard Shipping, Aliexpress Premium Shipping, DHL, EMS, ePacket and others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Which to Choose, Aliexpress Standard or Aliexpress Premium Shipping?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

AliExpress Standard Shipping is mostly free but has a slow delivery process; Premium Shipping costs money and also has an option to deliver your product a bit faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
