This is fked up IMO. Community notes are supposed to fact-check, not screw someone's campaign.

 
LOL reddit in making. :D
 
Similar thing is happening to Mobile Games Ads
 
Race to the bottom. Left ecommerce a long time ago. If you don't have your own trademark/brand and are not willing to build one up, you're going to find it difficult to make money.
 
Fucked up indeed.


Tho one should wonder, if all you do is place an order on AliExpress on behalf of someone's else, are you really adding enough value to charge 10x?

This opens up a can of worms. What aliexpress seller are they gonna compare with? What if the dropshipper bought 1 week earlier when price was 2x? What if the 10x cheaper price was occasional thing? Does Twitter have the resources to track prices in order to know what's abusive and what's not?
 
Welp, google is about to become like this in a way, notes in labs

Lowkey though, you actually do provide a lot of value in this sense.

The layperson is not going to click on random alibaba links with no idea about the supplier, shipping, trust, etc. as a middleman you take away that uncertainty and also provide refunds etc. the normal person may not be comfortable trusting alibaba etc.
Also a lot of items on alibaba have minimum order quantity which buying from a dropshipper takes care of.
 
Yeah, but it kinda makes sense that people would use it for that. Sucks though, but I'd hate to see it go away. You know, fact-checking and all that.
 
twitter grassed you for mass price inflating lol

This is shitty. I think they didn't go through with this since august tho, never seen it again
