11.11 Is Coming: How to Win the Biggest AliExpress Sale of the Year

November 11 is almost here… and that means just one thing: the biggest online sale of the year is about to start. Bigger than Black Friday, bigger than Cyber Monday, and packed with discounts you simply won’t find elsewhere. During the 11-11 Sale, AliExpress goes all-in. Whether you’ve had something on your wish list for months or you just want to browse and save, this is your moment to shop smart.

What to expect? Up to 80% off on electronics, gadgets, fashion, jewelry, toys, baby items, kitchenware, smart-home gear, beauty, and much more. But it’s not just about “a percentage off.” The real magic comes from stackable deals: store coupons, platform coupons and extra shop discounts. Combine them wisely = even lower prices — and that’s exactly why 11-11 is legendary for savvy buyers.

Pro tip: add your favorites to the cart now. When the sale goes live, you can check out instantly and avoid sold-outs or last-minute price changes. Meanwhile, start collecting coins, coupons and store points so you’re ready.

Good news: VAT and import fees are now handled upfront by AliExpress. No hidden charges — you see the final price and that’s what you pay. This makes shopping more transparent and often cheaper than with dropshippers, where returns are rarely free and price markups are common.

This website was born from the many questions people used to ask on the old VraagAlex site about AliExpress. To this day, we answer questions about orders, returns and shopping tips. We are not the official AliExpress customer service, but we’re happy to help when you need it.

Need extra support? I also offer computer help at home or remotely, including assistance with AliExpress issues (ordering, payments, opening a dispute). More info:
