Given the variable quality of goods and sellers on Aliexpress, it seems to be essential (in the absence of a personal recommendation, such as in this thread) to at least check the numerical ratings of sellers and goods. Checking the reviews is probably more precise, but I find this can be a bit of a pain due to the number of reviews which aren't in English. Sometimes I've had to click through several pages in Russian to see any reviews in English.

Has anyone found a way to limit the reviews just to those in English or an easy way to have the reviews automatically translated into English?

The translation plugin I'm using in Chrome (understandably) seems to struggle with the multitude of different languages on a typical page on Aliexpress. :)
i just Copy text, type "translate " into google on my phone and it comes up at the top, paste it in and it's done

I tend to use the app as there are additional discounts available. There is also a translate button in app (android version), if you just highlight any text (review or otherwise) it will pop up top right next to the select all/copy buttons. Let me know if you need a screenshot.

ROFL! It's getting to the point where we might need a sub4me Aliexperiments thread in the bin.

For those who are new, I suggest you search for the "sub4me" sales rule, it's classic. ;)

Got some Tom Ford's in. Pretty solid looking rep here. The only problem is that the inside lens is too reflective, sometimes when the light is behind me, I can see the reflection of my eyeballs through the glasses, it's quite trippy :p
