Technical questions to @Like Ra
Why banner links for Aliexpress always lead to Ali French site ? Previously, it was NL ... Why not to "international english" ?

On mobile version, "m.aliexpress...". for some products sometimes I've got message "due to legal regulations in your country...." , and I can acces to product. If I set "desktopt site" in mobile browser, then there is no limitations. Weird

No idea, it's mystery to me. From time to time I'm getting a Dutch, Portuguese, Israeli, Russian, or Chinese version. By default, everything is set to English.

Some pages are not accessible directly, some pages are randomly accessible.

Simple answer - Ali is buggy.

Forgot to add: the amount of the coupons is limited! The "cheapest" disappear first.

Ha! I was too late again... 😆 OK, let's hope for the Black Friday sale...

I hope I'm okay to post this suggestion, if not, LikeRa please remove it.

When buying from a Chinese site, always use a disposable or forwarding email address, I forgot and now get multiple spam emails every day, all traceable to use of Aliexpress. 😟

I can confirm that.
Bought some shoes many years ago from a website many many years ago.
Got the shoes, very nice, shipping good and was very happy.
A few days later, my in box has over a hundred emails from god knows how many sellers from somewhere.

This was the time before spam filters.

We called it Junk Mail.

I'm getting emails from Aliexpress only, and there is an "unsubscribe" button, which works 😉

Loads from product suppliers that I've no interest in, and I don't unsubscribe for as a rule, it only confirms the email is valid and that risks it getting even more junk emails.

I get a few each day from aliexpress, which of course go into my spam filter. Those are mostly related to things I bought in the past, or things I looked at while logged in. But I also get about every other day some chinese mails, either in english or in chinese. It is of course possible that they come from other sources, but I suspect that not all vendors at aliexpress keep the e-mail addresses to themselves.
I do not have the feeling that ali looks worse than other vendors one buys from on the internet.

Are you sure it's because of Ali? As I never got any. And, I must confess, I even like Alispam - they give very interesting ideas from time to time.
