No matter how reputable they are, we are still considered foreigners and easy to cheat based on system. To initiate return to taobao seller takes a lot of work. Even if returned back to seller, there is no guarantee that seller will send correct item or even send out at all. Best to buy things from taobao with a mindset of not returning back.anybody bought their card from taobao ? any reputable sellers ? or just see the sellers's reviews and ratings...thought of gettin from taobao.

After long observation and consideration, I got mine 3070ti from taobao last week. CN got stock and price are not as ridiculous (AIB partner are also increasing their price so forget about msrpp from Nvidia)anybody bought their card from taobao ? any reputable sellers ? or just see the sellers's reviews and ratings...thought of gettin from taobao.

Everything reach SG nicely and working. Returning is difficult, find a good agent in CN to check for you before sending it to SG (of course checking only meaning physical checking). Ask the seller to take picture/video when they pack your card as well so that you can match it when the item reaches your agent. Because it will be alot easier to return in CN then from SG to CN.
Currently I think SG price is dropping too right? And CN price like stop dropping already so generally is only a bit cheaper so you will have to weight the risk. I got mine when SL was selling 3070ti around 2K- 2.5k so i rather take the risk.

my personal view is that as long as you are willing to sacrifice local warranty, u should be able to get legit parts off taobao. have shipped a few last gen gpus from taobao, including 2 water cooled r9 fury xs, and they worked just fine. keep in mind both times the r9 fury x didnt even ship in a proper box:After long observation and consideration, I got mine 3070ti from taobao last week.
