Alibaba ( and express ) but not Banggood have decided to apply geo-ip based language forcing, at least to France.So when I search them, unless I use a VPN in an anglophone country, they insist on giving me incredibly badly auto-translated ( from Chinese , via English, into French, results . I really have to want something badly to go down that rabbit hole as I have to guess what their system might have decided an object would be called in french in order to get non gibberish " "Chinglishench" search results.I'm trying to learn Chinese ( in what free time I don't have ) to be able to sneak in via TaoBao and similar. Also out of general interest in languages, when you have more than one, learning additional ones becomes easier..Banggood will probably begin doing the same dumb thing re geo-ip language forcing one day.
Thanks anyway for taking the time to search for them
