Taobao Agent in Singapore Recommendation

[FireHobbit]

Dear friends,

I was thinking of getting mulitiple items from Taobao.com and was thinking of seeking opinions of good, cheap and reliable agents that you have encountered or deal with for recommendation?

Please kindly advice me on this purchase as it is my first time doing in and I have heard some scam cases are ongoing and therefore getting a bit wary.

Please help. Thank you

i used b4 sgshop, what i like is abt them is they have status one, like purchased,arrive in their china warehouse, arrived in sgshop, plus sms notification. but one flaw is tt if u want them to deliver to ur house, need additional 8 dollars i think, if not u can collect from them at designated mrt stations for free. shipping charges all this i can't rmb, u can check out their website http://www.sgshop.com.sg

Dont look and dont bother look for Taobao Agent in Singapore. by the time u purchase from them, they have earn about 20% to 35% more than the ordinary factory price.

Break down list:
1)First player - Factory/Manufacture
2)Second player - China internet retailer (getting from factory)
3) Third player - Taobao Agent in Singapore (getting from China internet retailer)
4) four player - Consumer / end user

Last, They are using DHL express chargers. (even more expensive)

Below are the list most expensive freight charger in china
1) DHL express > 75RMB per Kg
2) FEDEX expree > 60RMB per Kg
2) UPS express > 40RMB per kg
3) EMS > 35RMB per kg

if you need any product, direct purchase from China internet retailer or direct Factory/Manufacture.

Go the MO forum. There got a few. I tried Hirakawa and lowmiao. Both quite good.
