So far my biggest purchase on PDD is a indoor spin bike for around $120. No issues. Bought 5-6 pairs of running shoes all authentic and no problem. PDD is like any other chinese ecommerce platform where there are official stores, authorized resellers and then 3rd party sellers. No worries as long buy from official stores.
What shoes u bought

Black & White Evaporated Milk for my Kopi C kosong, because NTUC selling at 杀人放火 prices
ABC/Valueshop have made in thailand Carnation evaporated milk for $1.50 per can. Not too bland not too sweet and no weird sour or palm oil like taste. Valueshop carries a few different brands of evaporated milk but make sure to only buy the Carnation one. The rest of the brands tastes weird.

Carnation doesn’t cut it for me. It’s either Black & White or King of Kings

It seems that not all ship have that tracking, or delayed. Sometimes halfway then the app shows.

my 1st order on 16 jun arrived yesterday 27 Jun . I think it is considered very fast since it took just 11 days to reach me.


Read HWZ Forum Rules!
My most recent order with 易淘 from order placed to delivery only took 8 days. From leaving port to reaching SG took only 4 days. Past orders with 易淘 average is 16-18 days. Dont know why suddenly so fast. Maybe they upgraded their sampan fleet to speed boat.

actually at first i thought their non consolidation of items for cart check out is a stupid idea. but now, i think its brilliant. sometimes i just scan the thing i want and just pay for it directly, so efficient.. things are cheap, dont need to think. end up buying lots of nonsense.

One of my orders stuck at Chinese customs for OVER a month, on carrier YJD.... 1 more week without updates and I'll trigger PDD execs to settle the cancellation of the entire order for me.

Be wary of their essential oils. See the prices and u'll know. I'll save u guys some grief. Tea Tree oils, almond oils are probably cheap minieral oil mixed with additives to give u the 'scent'. I'm pretty sure the Tea Tree oils are fake. Those who know what a single drop of concentrated tea tree oil feels on your skin will know the potency. U can add 1 capful of the tiong 'Tea Tree Oil' and u don't feel anything. The smell is very close, but iykyk.

On the other hand, their Hainan cold pressed coconut oil is pretty good and cheap. DYOR for '老品牌‘ coconut oils

My sister bought many things through PDD and received the items in 1 big package but she said she will not buy from PDD as the quality of the goods are not that good.

Yea, need to be able to check and discern.

big ticket items, Shld still look at platforms like tmall. Any others?

thats like 25% of the home work you need to do...
Need to :
(a) PAP - pay and pay, learn from previous mistakes, experiment to find out which item can buy and cannot buy.
(b) after (a), you will find out 9 our of 10 of the same items are fake or imitations. example, i brought tons of USC 240w PD cables, only 1 is real (its the most expensive one).
(c) Stick to official store, and never pick the cheapest one, unless seller mention its factory reject or some superficial defects and buy at your own risks.
