Frequently asked questions
Is it strong enough for a bag strap?
No strength rating is given. It is fine for decorative use but check a stronger cord for load-bearing items.
How do I stop the ends from fraying?
Seal the cut ends with a lighter flame briefly or use fray-check glue. Work carefully because polyester melts.
Is the color accurate?
Screen colors vary, and polyester cord dyes can look different in person. Read buyer photos for the shade you want, and buy a little extra if you need an exact match across a project.
How long does shipping to the US take?
A coil of cord is small and light and usually arrives in one to three weeks, with Choice or Ship from United States options faster. Tracking comes with the order, and an unarrived parcel is refundable under Buyer Protection. Duty, if any, is tiny.

What is AliExpress's return policy?
Eligible items can be returned within 90 days of payment, with the first return on each order free, according to AliExpress's 2024 US announcement. Return terms vary by seller and item, so check the product page. Custom, perishable and hygiene items are generally excluded.
How long does AliExpress take to ship?
AliExpress's 2024 US guarantee listed Choice orders at 5 to 12 days and standard orders at 8 to 14 days, but real-world standard shipping from China often runs longer.

Does the 5mm Braided Polyester Cord come with a warranty?

Is AliExpress a legit store?
AliExpress is a legitimate marketplace that is worth using for cheap, low-risk things like cables, tools, cleaning supplies and small home items, as long as you can wait and you buy from well-rated sellers. Skip it for anything safety-critical, brand-name or urgent. Check the seller's feedback score, the delivery estimate and the import-charge line at checkout before you pay.
