Dear All,

I am moon83, I was tagged in the thread. : )

I am here sharing the products list and price for the items purchased from taobao.
We are using sea freight to send all the stuffs to Malaysia

Sea freight charges 1m3 = RM350, minimum 0.5m3- RM175
This charges included the doorstep delivery charges as well.
1m3 = 100cm x 100cm x 100cm = 1,000,000cm

Below here I will split out every single item  with the delivery charges as well, so that you guys can compare the price with the local market.

1.格尔斯 5折包邮 电视柜 钢化玻璃电视柜 茶几电视柜配套组合 C07 (TV Cabinet)
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09....&_u=cnmm34sceb3
颜色分类: 白色安装方式: 整装 (white color)

RMB 1180/1.75*1.06= RM714.74
Packaging size: outside will pack with wooden rack.
35cm*195cm*52cm (LengthxWidthxHeight) = 354900/1000000= 0.354m3
Minimum 0.5m3 = RM175 sea freight charges = RM714.74+175= RM889.74

2.江苏浙沪闽粤包邮 白色餐桌 餐桌椅 组合 吧桌 可折叠 1桌2椅 (Dining Table-Foldable)
http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=743445...&_u=cnmm34s4cc8
RMB278/1.75*1.06 = RM168.39

Packaging Size: 60cm x 32cm x 109cm = 209280/1000000= 0.209 m3
Minimum 0.5m3 = RM175 sea freight charges = RM168.39+175= RM343.39

Note:  Please kindly take note that, I will advice my client to gather all the items and purchase in one shot, coz we can save the sea freight charges. For example, If we purchase the TV Cabinet above and this dining set in the same time, we just need to pay 0.563m3 = 0.6m3 =RM350*0.6= RM210, rather than pay twice for sea freight charges RM175*2= RM350, from here we can save RM140.
3.格尔斯品牌 黑白色 现代时尚 简约 带4个储物 送小凳子 茶几 202 (Coffee Table with 4 stools)
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09....&_u=cnmm34sb954
颜色分类: 白色安装方式: 整装 (white color)
RMB 980/1.75*1.06 = RM593.60

Packaging Size: 82cm x 137cm x 47cm = 527998/1000000= 0.527m3 = 0.6m3
Minimum 0.5m3 = RM175 sea freight charges, RM350*0.6= RM210
Total cost = RM 593.60+210 = RM 803.60
4.藤椅三件套户外阳台桌椅特价包邮 藤椅花园组合 鸟巢 藤椅 (Balcony Coffee Table and Chairs)
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09....&_u=cnmm34s2377

RMB 518/1.75*1.06 = RM313.76

Packaging Size1: 64cm x 61cm x 60cm = 234240/1000000= 0.234m3
Packaging Size2: 120cm x 62cm x 60cm = 446400/1000000= 0.4464m3
Total packaging size : 0.234+0.4464 = 0.6804m3 = 0.7m3
RM350*0.7 = RM245 sea freight charges
Total cost = RM 313.76+245 = RM558.76

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09....&_u=cnmm34s9737

RMB 379/1.75*1.06 = RM 229.57

Packaging Size: 44cm x 99cm x 24cm = 104544/1000000= 0.104m3
Minimum 0.5m3 = RM175 sea freight charges = RM229.57+175= RM404.57
6.成丰 电脑椅 家用时尚转椅 可躺人体工学网椅 升降特价椅子办公椅 (Office Chair)
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09....&_u=cnmm34sfede
颜色分类: 黑色五星脚材质: 钢制脚扶手类型: 升降扶手 (Black color, adjustable)
RMB 368/1.75*1.06 = RM222.90

Packaging Size: 64cm x 33cm x 62cm = 130944/1000000= 0.130m3
Minimum 0.5m3 = RM175 sea freight charges = RM222.90+175= RM397.90

Note:  Assume that we purchase 4units, the sea freight charges still remain RM175, as the packaging size still within 0.5m3, RM222.9*4+175= RM891.6+175= RM1066.6/4= RM266.65 per unit.
This is quite a reasonable price if compare with the local market price here. : )
For those who plan to change for the office chair, can consider taobao. : )  thumbup.gif

all renovation finished.. starting to unpack my stuff. 1 leg of the sofa is dented (senget 1 side, total lost). Lucky when I open the storage side, got spare 2 set of legs inside.. so no issue for my sofa.. that time too dark, cannot take picture anymore. below is the picture with lights on... (my place still no electricity, the maintenance guy come and ask my contractor to tap the power socket near the lift to test his work).

Hi, is it possible to share your  contractor contact?
Thanks!

You can contact him 0167699190 Liong or 0167606900 Fion.
He finished my job personally, if you see my previous post, he fired his worker when doing my house blink.gif .
So far I am satisfied with his work... I paid RM300 deposit only and he yet to give me the balance I need to pay him.
He is Plaster Ceiling contractor.. He do electrical works as well but no other stuff. If you looking to source separately, He is highly recommended. If you looking to engage an ID, Then you can forget about hi, as I can feel he is not so friendly towards those id guy base on my conversation with him

ok, unpacked my stuff from taobao. generally it meets my expectation, you pay for what you get.. thats all I can say.

Sofa set - meet expectation, If you stay in KL, get it in Ikea. The quality is lower than IKEA made one. but still usable.

May be because it is hard so I dont like it. But I choosed Medium hard anyway, So cannot blame much.

The hydraulic system works well. Good storage area here.

In bed mode. As you can see the gaps are quite huge as compare to IKEA's one.

user posted image

Coffee table - below expectation. The paint finishing is not good. May be it is the design but it makes it looks like unfinished paint. But the wood is solid and freaking heavy.

again, Storage storage storage~~ its curial for me.

Shoe Rack - exceed expectation.. The manual, and all the stuff is brilliant. Nicely marked and every single screw was packed separately with their respective marking. beyond that IKEA can offer and the quality of it is good as well.

Again, Its all about storage

My small dining table (my friend say its like ironing board.. So sad cry.gif ) - Meet my expectation. A bit shaky though. but what to expect..

Full mode

Folded mode

Office chair - Meet expectation. its just like those RM150-200 char that you buy. but this one is in mesh and with 2 way adjustment and also can lean down. Ergonomic as well. Overall I would say its good. The steel leg is solid and heavy, that confirm better than our local 100-200 item.

user posted image

Carpet - Exceed my expectation. Those carpet are only selling for like RM100 but the quality is as good as those we buy in jusco for 300-400. highly recommended. Especially the one below the office chair, its less than $100RMB. But the feel on it... Its Awesome! super soft and nice. I believe thats all for today, Those rack to install on wall its just normal like the ones you buy outside. Meet my expectation and its cheap. thats all. but I will not install it first until I get all my big local furniture. hope the TV cabinet that will be sent on Monday will not disappoint me.

Your studio unit looks cozy. Can you take pictures of the whole area after completion? If you don't mind that is. Good job!

Maybe out of reach or extreme but here's what Gary Chang did to his 344 sq ft home in Hong Kong.



The steel tracks I can think of is available from Raumplus but not sure if Mr Chang sourced for the same as the load imposed could be higher.

Tree Hugger's Graham Hill 1100 sq ft in 420 sq ft.


The design of such nowadays earned it appropriately the moniker transformer apartments.
