Taobao purchases during cny

[keanutan]

Hey guys, just want to see if anyone has experiences from purchasing directly from taobao during cny period? Cause i need something delivered in mid march , abit worried if i order after their holiday ends , they would be swamped by backdated orders, also any ideas if there would be issues since the delivery timing would be longer and i think u can only extend the delivery timing once right?

Thanks in advance!

even if u order now, the items may get stuck at seller/forwarder/customs. Chances of getting lost is higher. After CNY, they will need at least 1 week to clear backlogs.

Just order after CNY, it can reach your house within 2 weeks depending on the seller.
As long u order from good reputation seller, u dun have to worry about extend button.

Remember to alww seller before purchase, i remember seller went *mia for long CNY holiday...2 weeks!!!

Confirm plus guarantee chop will delay. Never ship anything during holidays if you need it urgently.

You can actually ask the seller how long it take. I ordered my stuffs last week, monday already reach singapore. Asked the seller can get before CNY, he told me can, that's why i went ahead.

Another way is thru lazada taobao collaboration. It seems to be much faster than ezbuy at least.

I am thinking to order some winter coats from taobao for my trip in mid next month. But still considering should buy or not as worried it can't reach me in time.

Wah mid March a bit hard. From last year I ordered something from taobao 7 days before cny.

Took a total 6 weeks to arrive.
