As far as I know aliexpress does not accept bitcoin. However you have a few other options...
1) find a different place with similar stock that does accept BTC (eg. newegg)
2) use purse.io to get the items from amazon
3) find a gift card for your desired purchase point on gyft.com

Hope that helps :)

They dont accept it right now. But if a lot us send them a mail they would consider it.

I buy a lot of stuff on aliexpress, doing it with bitcoin would literally make my day.

Like the previous guy said, aliexpress doesn't accept bitcoins as payment. Alternatively, you can make a thread asking someone to buy you a stuff on the said site, ship it to you, then you'll just pay him/her with bitcoins, just make sure to deal with a trustworthy one.

Would be really nice optoin if that will be possible. You can now trade some BTC for fiat on exchange if you really need it.

I would encourage this a lot.

Aliexpress has become a very big reliable company. Many people use it. A lot of them don't know bitcoin but if they now how easy it is to buy stuff there with bitcoin.
Well it is a win win.

Last year i was able to pay in BTC to aliexpress, i did buy a few items....

But the trick was to go over with Webmoney.

Aliexpress (still) accept WebMoney.   On Webmoney i was able to exchange  BTC for  US $ Webmoney.. 

But last time i tried, it seems it was not as easy, and else i dont speak russian, the WebMoney  was a pain in the Arse for me to travel through all those webmoney steps .....

You have to transfer your BTC in your Webmoney BTC wallets, then find the option to exchange  then the money in US was in my WebmoneyWallet.. then i could buy some goods...

I dont know if it still possible..

I doubt Aliexpress will start accepting bitcoin payments.

Aliexpress.com is owned by the Alibaba Group, which also owns Alibaba.com. In January 2014 Alibaba banned accepting bitcoins on its online marketplace (Taobao), and banned the sale of bitcoin mining equipment there. Its actions were viewed as a response to the People's Bank of China (PBoC) crackdown on bitcoin.

Chinese e-commerce group Alibaba said Tuesday it would not accept bitcoins on its online marketplace, Taobao. It also banned the sale of the equipment, merchandise and software used to mine the virtual currency.

Alibaba's actions are seen as a response to the People's Bank of China (PBoC) warning against the use of Bitcoin last month as it looks to IPO this year and attempts to rid its marketplace site of fake goods.
