Are you referring to AliExpress.com by Alibaba.com? AliExpress.com is the direct-purchasing platform, part of Alibaba.com. It allows buyers to purchase a single piece or a small lot via a shopping cart experience. With more than 11 million unique consumer products available, it fits the needs of those who need small quantities of products or those who need samples before placing big orders.
Alibaba.com is a global e-commerce platform for small businesses, in larger quantities.
Our aim is to create the go-to English-language platform for cross-border trade and purchases between countries as well as helping small businesses worldwide expand to overseas markets.
Alibaba.com and AliExpress.com have been consoliding and upgrading their platforms so you may see some upcoming changes. However, the platform will still be available for smaller quantity buys.
