Why are these Ali stuff so expensive?
I haven't shopped in a Jewish store in a long time so maybe compared to that it's cheap? |
It's not as cheap as shein or target, but I find it to be better quality and many people like to shop "the look". Also, people feel like they save money when they buy an item for $20 that's identical to something in a local store for $100+...

I have seen many boys in tights, took me time to get used to it but now it's more the inconvenience of having to open up the snaps, then pull down tights... though I guess it's not that different from wearing a 2 piece where the top has snaps. |
I don’t mind the hassle as long as there’s snaps on the bottom. Leggings can also be annoying.
It’s cute for little girls
I really dislike little boys in tights though especially for a weekday item.

The quality for most items compares to the frum stores.
Much better then Shein which is because a one time wear for most items. (I stopped buying from them. Not worth it in the long run for me.)
In the frum stores: Average weekday sweatshirt or romper goes for $40-60. Average Shabbos blazer $100 (I paid $40 here) dress $100, romper $60+ ect
Also, you are paying for the frum designs.
I do not shop Ali otherwise. The quality is usually not great and for the same price and I can get H&M. Here, I know I will get decent quality.

For weekday:
For Shabbos:
Got this blazer and it’s so pretty however, ran huge. The size 6 I purchased looks like a 8 I’m trying to return it but looks like I need to pay return shipping and who knows how much that will cost. So if you order definitely size down!

Thanks!!

Agree! whatever I buy on alivibes looks identical and same quality as what my friends buy in local stores. for myself, I usually don't shop ali.

Got a message today's deals at alifavorites are women's winter jackets from Prada, moose knuckle, & Moncler. Not that I care for brands. I don't shop for myself online. Need to try on. Sending to you for whoever does care.

So on alifavorites, are they usually verified sellers or they just repost links? I don't recall ever seeing comments on items they actually bought

I like unique stuff. Everyone wears Tottini and Kidichic. They have very nice well priced stuff but I prefer to have things slightly more original. Less people buy from these sites.

Thank you for coming back on this!
Where do you see the original link ? I'd like to see more. I was scouring alivibes but couldn't find (to be fair I gave up after a while!)

I agree I think ali used to be cheaper. I don't think it's worth the hassle of not being able to return for $20... if it was under 10 ok, but these prices aren't so cheap anymore
