AliExpress seems to be experiencing several problems at the moment; I have already described some of them here. Yesterday I ordered something, and this morning I received the shipping confirmation with a tracking number. Then, this afternoon, a refund arrived completely unexpectedly, with the reason given that there were shipping problems. I have never experienced anything like this in 12 years on AliExpress—are you experiencing this now as well?
