I think getting on for half of the comments on this thread have been about the poor quality of the items ordered, so trying to eliminate the counterfeit rubbish would be a step in the right direction.

That actually is my only complaint about Lazada.

I and family order quite regularly from Lazada. I've never had a problem with the product bar on one occasion a completely different item was sent. As it turned out, the item sent in error was worth quite a bit more than the item I ordered ..... so we kept it.

I will always check the reviews, and seller % ratings. I will only order from sellers with the three categories above 90%.
Some sellers actually have a shop in which case you can google search the shop for more info and if possible, give them a call.

My wife is a huge fan of Lazada with an average 12 orders a month ( for myself 12 a year) but the point I can make is that the correct item has always been delivered and only one item has been returned this year when she ordered the wrong size - to thank you Lazada

Also been using it for years, one or two items have been wrong but most of the stuff has been as ordered. Yes, there is a lot of cheap junk on there but the silly prices should be a giveaway for that.

I've also noticed there are considerable savings to be made by buying identical items that are for sale in Hua Hin at a premium. A recent example would be a HDMI adaptor to connect my laptop to a bigger screen - 400 baht in Banana IT and JIB in MV, the identical cable was 120 on Laz. The Mrs wanted a pressure cooker, 899 on Laz, 1,200 for the identical model in Lotuss - there is a good reason the high street shops and retailers are losing out, it all adds up.

I get a lot of things and generally have no issues. Prices are good but buyer beware if it is too good. Biggest problem lately is Kerry who can be unreliable whereas flash and Lex are better
