What does it mean: local delivery on Aliexpress

Advantages and disadvantages of local delivery on Aliexpress

If before the delivery of goods was carried out exclusively from abroad, and took up to 90 days, now everything has changed. Sending from Russia is attractive for its timing. So, some goods can be delivered to their recipient within 2 to 14 days. Agree, fabulous numbers, compared with delivery from the Middle Kingdom.

Another advantage of choosing local delivery on Aliexpress is bypassing customs control. Oh, what people have not suffered from these people in green uniforms. Either they reject the goods, sending it back to the seller, then they open the parcels, yes, it happens. From such actions, everyone bears losses, both sellers and buyers. But when delivered in Russia, this a priori cannot be, isn’t it wonderful?

This also includes the possibility of local return. If earlier, the purchased goods, which did not fit in size or came with other defects, had to be sent to China, spending a lot of money and time on this, but now it is in the past. You can send goods to Russian addresses, which is much faster and much cheaper.

The disadvantages include the low prevalence of delivery from Russia to Aliexpress. Unfortunately, not all sellers have the opportunity to enter the Russian market with local delivery. But, let's hope that there will still be a way out and someday 90% of goods can be ordered in this way.

How to find local shipping on Aliexpress

It is very easy to do this. First you need to find the products that interest you. Let's say we select a mobile phone by going to the appropriate section.

In the menu header, you need to select "Sending from ..." the corresponding country.

After such sorting, phone models available for shipment from Russia will be shown. Near each of them there will be a corresponding mark.

Many may think that for such convenience you will have to fork out well. Not at all, delivery about the former can be both paid and. This is determined by the criteria of the seller. But often, this does not affect the cost of the phone and shipping is still free.

Such manipulations, to search for local delivery, can be carried out with absolutely any category of goods. So now Aliexpress is suitable even for those people who do not like to wait and want everything at once.

Use Aliexpress and enjoy pleasant shopping at attractive prices and with the fastest delivery!

Parcels during delivery change many statuses and it is not always clear which one and what it means. In this material, we will talk about the status - "Order accepted by the local branch of the delivery service."

Almost every buyer after ordering goods for Aliexpress tracks the parcel and uses various resources. There are even special programs for browsers and smartphones where you can automatically track the goods by receiving alerts and SMS. And someone has enough data from a personal account Aliexpress .

In this case, regardless of the source used, one has to deal with various kinds of statuses. Almost all of them are clear and do not require additional information. One of them is "Order accepted by local delivery service". What does he mean? Let's find out.

What does the parcel status “Order accepted by the local delivery service” mean on Aliexpress?

If, when tracking an order, you saw that you had such a status displayed, then this portends good news. First of all, the parcel was sent and started to be tracked, which is already good. In addition, you don’t have to worry, because the order has already been sent to you.

In fact, in this case, they are talking about the local delivery office, meaning Chinese mail. That is, when the seller handed over the parcel for dispatch and it was registered.

Another similar status can be found if the package with Aliexpress goes through an intermediate country. What does it mean? For example, a parcel is sent by Estonian mail. Accordingly, from China, it first arrives in Estonia. And only after that it goes to the country of the recipient. Then the registration at the Estonian Post will be considered the local branch.

In this case, if you follow the parcel on different services, then one will indicate that the parcel has been accepted at the local branch, and the other will indicate that it is already in another country. Let's take an example.

Here is the tracking page from Aliexpress with the desired status:

But if you track the same track on the site Track24, then it will already be indicated here that the product is in another country:

Among other things, the status may also appear in the country of the recipient, when the shipment is received by mail within the country. As in the previous case, the information on different services will be different.

So no matter at what point this status manifested itself in you, it does not mean anything bad. On the contrary, it means that everything is fine with you and the goods will come to you soon.

Local delivery is an opportunity to place an order for Aliexpress with delivery not from China, but from a local warehouse in your country. This delivery method has many advantages, but there are also disadvantages. And besides the obvious advantages / disadvantages of local delivery to Aliexpress, there are also not obvious nuances that you will only learn about when you encounter them at the most inopportune moment or by reading this article.

Regular readers of the site will note that we already, when this delivery method just appeared on Aliexpress. But time goes by and it's time to update the information.

Benefits of Local Delivery

The benefits are obvious, but let's list them:

• delivery speed (usually the parcel arrives within 2 weeks, often faster when it comes to large cities)
• no need to go through customs
• often courier services are involved in the delivery of such goods and you do not need to queue at your post office
• often goods with local delivery can be returned locally in case of problems
• often products with local delivery also have a local warranty service

Below we will analyze each item in detail. And now for the disadvantages.

Disadvantages of Local Delivery

In fact, there are not many shortcomings here, but they are significant:

• price - Chinese goods with local delivery are usually very significantly more expensive,
• assortment - usually the assortment of a lot in a local warehouse is limited and much less than in a warehouse in China. Often you can't order the item in the right color (for example) from the local warehouse,
• no local delivery required. This point requires a separate explanation.

Now let's take a closer look at some of the advantages and disadvantages more closely.

Delivery speed by local delivery with Aliexpress

In most cases, locally delivered goods are delivered quickly. It is a fact.

If for delivery from China to the Russian Federation 60 days is quite a normal time (although, in fairness, and by regular mail now the parcel often reaches Moscow in 3-6 weeks), then the local delivery of the parcel arrives within 2 weeks. And more often a week after shipment.

However, on Aliexpress, the seller can, without asking the buyer, change the shipping method. This applies not only to Local delivery, but also to any other. Even paid. We ourselves have encountered a situation several times when an order is placed with Local delivery, and the seller takes and sends the order from China. Well, he ran out of goods in a local warehouse, the seller breeds with virtual hands.

There are no problems with reimbursement of the difference in cost in a dispute, but no one will return the lost time to you. There is a feeling that there are not many such situations lately, but there are chances to run into. This must be understood.

No customs clearance for local delivery to Aliexpress

For the buyer, this is a clear advantage. And as a result, the advantage is not only in speed, but also in the fact that you definitely will not run into the need for certification, an import ban and exceeding the duty-free limit. The goods have already passed customs clearance and you buy it in your own country. This is great. And all these goodies are one of the reasons for the significantly higher cost of goods when choosing Local delivery.

We highly recommend using Local Delivery, for example when importing phones and tablets. Increasingly, there are reports of problems with the import of such devices due to the lack of notifications. In the case of Local delivery, you should not encounter problems at customs.

Delivery by courier company

On the one hand, this is the advantage of Local delivery. Especially if the courier will bring you a package to your home. No need to go to the post office and stand in a long line. In Moscow, local delivery via SPSR is very convenient. Quickly, at home, at a convenient time after the call and by agreement with the courier. Just beauty.

However, if you do not live in a large metropolis, it is possible that the transport company to which the seller carries out local delivery has neither an office, nor a pick-up point, nor couriers in your locality. And you will be offered to send the parcel by regular mail or even come to the point of issue in the regional center several tens of kilometers away.

Even in a big city, not all couriers have a normal delivery scheme. In some, the courier simply arrives without a preliminary call and, if he does not find anyone at home, he puts the status “ bad delivery«.

Local return

Local return means that in case of problems with the goods and winning the dispute with the condition of returning the goods, you will not have to pay expensive shipping to distant China. You will pay for shipping only within the country, which is significantly cheaper.

Please note that Local Delivery does not necessarily mean Local Return. It is possible that after placing an order with Local delivery and winning a dispute, you will have to return the goods to China. Only the presence of the Local return badge in the lot you can claim a return within your country.

Optional Local Delivery

This is a common problem of Aliexpress, which the administration has been diligently ignoring for many years. Its essence is that the seller can change the delivery method at his own discretion, without agreement with the buyer. Many have faced the situation when you pick up a lot where China Post is indicated as a delivery method, and after registration, the seller sends the order to some Yanwen. It is not uncommon when, instead of paid EMS, the prod is sent by regular mail.

Yes, if the delivery costs money, then you will then knock them out through a dispute, there are no difficulties here. But time will be lost. But what if the order was calculated for a specific time. For a birthday or wedding.

Same issue with Local Delivery. You place an order with Local delivery, in the expectation that the package will arrive in a week. And the prod takes and sends the goods from China. If the goods reach you, then you will not be able to refuse it or return all the money without returning the goods (with shipping paid by the buyer) and this is a problem.

However, in our opinion, this situation is less likely now than at the launch stage of Local Delivery. If you have come across a similar one, write in the comments how the disputes ended.

Can I order with Local delivery from a warehouse in another country

This is a common question. Especially often, residents of the Republic of Belarus try to circumvent the customs limits lowered in 2016. However, unfortunately, local delivery is only possible to the country where the local warehouse is located.

Ordering from a local warehouse with Local delivery from one country to another is NOT possible.

That is, you can order from Russia to Russia. US to US Local delivery is also possible. And from the USA to Russia is not present. From Russia to Ukraine, it is also impossible and impossible to use Local delivery from the Russian Federation to Belarus.

If there is no local Aliexpress warehouse in your country, then you can only order goods from China.

How to Find Products with Local Shipping on Aliexpress

Now on Aliexpress in the search for goods there is a convenient filter both by the country of shipment and by the availability of local returns.

Go to the search, mark the desired country of shipment and voila - all products for which there is Local delivery from the selected country are in front of you.
