If buy directly from sea.taobao.com the taobao original forwarder charge me RMB 36.05+ per kg.
No other hidden charges.
But you still have to send ur item to the local china warehouse first before send over to malaysia.
i used 4px, everythg done automatically with just few clicks.
so far so good, 4-6 business days then receive my items.
But one question why have to x 1.1 again? is it 10% charge from the agent?
Nobody do free services. Basically its cheaper to ship but more expensive to buy via agent.
I'm using direct debit through CIMBClicks instead of credit card. Even though it will arrived in less than 4days, but I have to say my experience with the local courier which handle 4PX shipment is disappointing. The company called Airpax located in Batu Caves, FFK me twice on shipment. Firstly, they SMS me but did not turn up. Second time, they called me and still didnt turn up. In the end, I had to call them to leave the item in the office for self pickup.
Maybe I would try to use credit card now if it is really categorized as groceries. Lots of interesting stuffs there.
