[EDMW discussion] Shopping using Pinduoduo 拼多多 (PDD)

[IAmChiobu12M]

Has anybody started to buy Toilet rolls from PDD ever since the Free shipping with no minimum spend?

The Vinda Blue Classic 4 ply Toilet paper cost about S$2.50 for 10 rolls during special sale at PDD. Way more affordable compared to Fairprice.

Cashew Nuts 400g about S$6.00 at PDD, compared to SG which typically cost above S$10.00 at local supermarket.

What are other items that worth to buy from PDD?

I'm also wondering how PDD is sustaining Free shipping without minimum purchase.

Free shipping without min spend??? Mine still show 99rmb for free shipping leh.

 

[beanstalk6]

Maybe that's why they're so aggressive in sales tactics over the past 3 years.

I started using PDD also in 2023, after they got banned. Back then, they didn't have free shipping, but their official shipping was already dirt cheap. Think was half price of TB/Cainiao, and they charge by actual weight, not volumetric. So was even cheaper.

Now free shipping for multiple countries, no minimum spend.

As usual with Chinese companies, it is a fight to the death between Taobao, JD and PDD, from their domestic market to the international arena, especially as sales in their domestic market are likely to be flat or declining.

I bought cashew and almond nuts before, the almond nuts were ok but the cashew nuts were different from the pictures~ it's like deep fried nuts coated with flour~

If you can get the correct one, please share here~

At your own risk.
Pinduoduo is suspended by Google since 2023 over malware issues so their app cannot be listed in PlayStore.

Yeah, even SG Taobao sale discounts all transfer to their English version to target the non-Chinese speaking customers.

I'm keeping away as Google Play Store is my first line of defence.

Honor also got.

Honor is Chinese, naturally and the standards it applies to its app store are uncertain. The app is likely to be available on Xiaomi app store too.

Usually Play Protect will scan the phone for suspicious apps and notify should any rogue apps be on your phone.
