Quite cheap for 3KG but then again, it's sea shipping right?
The ¥29.99 is including shipping from seller to warehouse then warehouse to you
Or just ¥29.99 from warehouse to you?

How much is the total overall for shipping?

I wonder how much it will cost for 3KG for consolidated air freight hmm.gif
*
3kg air consolidated=¥96

Still cheap wor
Dem, I should've used consolidated air shipping since the beginning sweat.gif

I remember I paid ¥356 for items that only cost 4KG, because I choose direct shipping and it involves lots of items and from multiple seller doh.gif
*
each item direct air price is already over-estimated, so if you add them all up, then super duper over-estimated price

Hi guys,

first time purchasing from taobao and noticed they have direct delivery back to malaysia, from what i understand, previously we need to handle the shipping by getting an agent to get the item from China and back to Malaysia.

Do we still need to do this? the seller told me that he isn't able to view the tracking information and can only be sent to the transit warehouse.

Thanks in advance!

if taobao direct, its door to door, you dont do anything

Is the price difference huge between consolidated sea shipping & consolidated air freight?
I'm buying several stuff from a single shop that's around 2KG

Direct shipping is ¥210 (RM130.95). Do you think consolidated air freight would be cheaper?
*
if you're not in a rush, use sea freight; consolidated air freight is usually cheaper than direct

i usually test the shipping charges for each item and then combine them to see the diff. effect; also try other shops selling the same items

Hi guys, if i buy from taobao use global direct air shipping estimate how long will reach malaysia? Tis 1 item direct not kumpul at warehouse one

Wanna compare if i should buy from alixpress or taobao cos alixpress need 18-30working days for alixpress standard delivery. If alixpress premium gonna cost me rm70 but can reach 7-15days. I see u guys said normally sea shipping is around 3 weeks so air shud be better right?

buying an IC to repair my barang, need it urgently.
*
about 7-10 days, if smooth at KLIA customs

I really need help on this, my taobao account of more than 10 years suddenly got "restricted". Haven't bought anything this year, only browsing. Now when try login got message pop up restricted. And because of this.....can't use livechat (because require login first). call (60)392125564 taobao helpline malaysia...and its chinese voicemail...don't understand it. contact facebook sea.taobao...no reply at all.

how to solve this? my taobao account linked to my phone no (so cant use phone no to register new account), also taobao account linked to alipay (dont think alipay can be linked to new taobao account), also taobao account is linked to xianyu account. so definately I want to recover my taobao account...but unable to do so.

anyone know how to get english on malaysia taobao phone no? or what keypad number to press for account related queries ?
*
yes, i lost my old taobao a/c also, few months ago, havent bought anything for few years; some china phone number took over my a/c; had to create another a/c to browse
