I think Amazon has the cheapest computer parts

Lazada/shopee/taobao for everything else

Depends on what kind of computer parts... Do you find this in Amazon & at what price? This is probably S$13.9 after adding 9% GST. Where else to get at such prices? This one beats shopee hands down.

Pinduoduo >> shopee >>> Amazon.

pls cut down sugar if you want to live well to enjoy life. sugar is extremely bad for health, worse than salt.


Read HWZ Forum Rules!

It's for my mom. She is in perfect health and will only eat ice cream from Haagen Dazs, which are usually too rich for me. I'm not a sweet tooth person.

I will buy expensive ice cream for her and very occasionally eat Solero or Potongs on a really hot day. Sometimes I do buy Magnums if there is a good sale.

Visiting her in a week or two. Will be bringing her teapots and other stuff bought during from Prime Day (Week) and 7.7 Lazada.

Amazon only good to buy stuff you can't find on shopee lazada
And then when i get the item, usually it looks like someone returned it previously

Some branded items Amazon discount can go crazy.. like how Sennheiser HD620S selling at low $200+... I bought it at $300++ on Shopee with voucher.

Amazon is gg ...

I ordered a docking hub from ugreen on amazon on 13th july...

now i discovered the tracking.. it is from SGPOST. Now on the way ... 3 days for a local product..

lol. of all couriers... ninja and sgpost is the one cannot use one.

They should just let the Chinese players dominate the logistic here... No use defending JLB sinkie companies.
bring in SF Express ! TODAY or NEXT DAY DELIVERY!

I bought the Legion Go from china, they using SFExpress on 28th June(weekend).
reeived on Thursday(4th jUly) - within 6 DAYS for something that needs to clear china custom, then to hk custom, then to singapore custom. all need to take flights and not accounting the last mile delivery by the riders.

Amazon SG charge merchant so much %, how will be cheap
but shopee pattern more and more coming out to merchant liao, the fees keep increasing so frequently forcing us to use their FBS.
price will not be cheap very soon.

I just ordered some $42 worth of items from Taobao last night. Just some small gadgets and some stationary gift sets for the preschool children's birthday...

Just for illustration... Try finding one of this in Amazon... and tell me what price it was.


wa... the few things i wouldnt buy from china would be no-brand electronics and electrical applianecs. i think burn down the house in singapore is more expensive than the savings from buying nonbranded electronics.
