Trends at alibaba show buyers look to incline towards entertaining vendors that offer cheap pricing.

what do you think of this attitude. Is this the main cause why buyer's traffic is more headed towards Alibaba?

Is it not enouraging vendors to offer products that are not really up to the mark?

Scamming complaints are growing at alibaba. Are buyers to be blamed for this to any extent especially for creating cheap value product trend at alibaba.

 

As trading is a totally voluntary act between two or more parties, and as it's up to you with who you want to deal, generally also the victim is guilty to a certain degree. It's not like for example in the case of an armed assault where there is nothing you can do to avoid the problem.

Many people have been saying over and over again (and lately I have become part of this "choir") DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE! That's all you need - in any case with a good measure of common sense - to avoid being scammed. Blaming Alibaba, a country, a whole continent or the entire world doesn't get you anywhere good. It only tends to alienate you.

Thank you Grandpa for your General comment. I am looking for some critical analysis based on experience and some constructive advice for both BUYERS & SELLERS ON ALIBABA that could not only set out some guidlines but also serve as leading advice to consider while buying or selling on alibaba.
