Import a Mooer ge150 pedal from AliExpress and I'll tell you about it
How about my friends from Hive, today I want to share with you my experience of buying on the platform known as AliExpress. I confess that, until recently, I had no idea how this whole procedure was done or what it was about. However, curiosity got the better of me and I decided to embark on the adventure of spending about 100 dollars on this online sales page.
I must admit that at first I was a little afraid because although the seller had a great reputation, they thought they would send me a Chinese product like the one in the following reference.
Watch the very funny video by the way..

The platform seemed like a maze of products, sellers and options to me. But little by little, with patience and a little help from tutorials on YouTube, I learned to navigate it.
My first purchase was a Mooer Ge150 electric guitar effects pedal. The truth is that I didn't dare invest a lot of money in something I didn't know. So I chose a seller with good ratings and an affordable price.
To my surprise, shipping was completely free thanks to a promotion I found on the platform. Additionally, AliExpress offered me an additional discount, which made the final price even more attractive.
MY review for the successful purchase
I opted to use a national shipping company called On Way Cargo. I had read some positive comments about them and I liked the idea of the package being tracked within Venezuela.
What surprised me most was the speed of the shipping. The package arrived in the United States in less than 3 days to reach the international locker. From there, it took a couple more days to arrive at the on way cargo offices. The total shipment from the US to Caracas, which was where I picked up, was a total of 16 dollars for a package of the following dimensions.
30 centimeters long by 24 centimeters long, about 15 centimeters high and weight about a kilo and a half more or less. For reference, a shoe box.
On Way Cargo Pre Alert
In total, the purchasing process was very simple and fast. The quality is excellent and meets all my expectations.
Lessons learned:
Take your time to research: Don't jump into the first purchase you see. Research the seller, read reviews from other buyers, and compare prices.
Take advantage of promotions and discounts: AliExpress usually offers different types of promotions and discounts. Don't let them pass!
Choose a good shipping method: If you can, opt for a shipping method with tracking. This will allow you to know where your package is at all times.
Don't be afraid to ask questions: If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact the seller or AliExpress customer service.
Overall, my experience with AliExpress has been very positive. I will definitely buy from this platform again in the future. If you are thinking about doing it, I encourage you to take the plunge and try it for yourself. You won't regret it!
Some additional tips:
Create an account on AliExpress: This will allow you to save your favorite products, make faster purchases and access exclusive offers.
Download the AliExpress app: The app allows you to make purchases from anywhere and receive notifications about the status of your orders.
Use a translator: If you are not fluent in English, you can use an online translator to help you communicate with sellers.
Use Zinli credit card or PayPal payment method if it fails
Take advantage of the discounts and free shipping offered on some products, it is important to see which one has free shipping to the US because otherwise you will have to pay a high cost, remember these are products from CHINA!!
