    Wow, it was just announced that shares hit $68 and the company was therefore the highest valued IPO in history on an American exchange at $21.8 billion.

    I have not been on Ali Baba for years because it was mostly filled with scammers it seemed to me. Do a lot of DP-ers use it? Is it different from many years ago? What do you find it useful for?

    I looked at it recently when I was looking for bike lights and was amazed at how cheap they were. Really was tempting to buy a bulk amount to sell locally. Didn't follow through - I think the "made in china" book I read a while back put me off!

    It is funny because I had the same thought. I specialize in buying stuff cheap and selling them for profit. However, I don't do quality like this. It isn't bad, but not my cup of tea.

    seems like they have tried hard to clean up the scammers from selling on their site. I always filter for verified sellers that have had an on site visit
