Re: AliExpress
Aliexpress is a real firm(kind of a marketplace). Mostly cheap and Chinese tat but you can get a bargain. Is your email one that could be similar to another? You have done right anyway

Re: AliExpress
Real firms dont normally send emails asking you to "confirm" your account (unless you just registered of course). I treat any such emails as spam, and delete them.

Not sure what you mean as it's just like ordering something from eBay UK, I ordered a few things a month or so ago and the invoice is just like any other store.

AliExpress have changed how they display the breakdown of costs. VAT is now included in the listed price whereas before it was added at checkout. I just checked my last order and yes it does contain tax.
