Ive never experienced getting taxed buying stuff from china except from the state. I got tax plus the warning letter (supplement food item) from the MOH even the values way below rm500 while some of my friend were also getting tax under the same circumference. Sometimes, i believe they charge the tax whenever they wanna charge you...lol.

Early this year when kastam did stricter check that was when I got taxed. That's the only time it happened so far

Wow announcement from From Ezbuy. Is this the death of a taobao agent?

Sos :

https://ezbuy.my/


QUOTE
Dear Valued Customer,

On behalf of the entire team at ezbuy.my, we would like to apologise to all our customers who are affected by the recent delays in receiving their orders, and to our merchants, partners, family and friends who were unintentionally involved in this issue for lending their support. We regret the problems that had transpired in the last few weeks, specifically in the multiple delays that many of our customers had faced. It has come to a point where it is necessary that we address several things that have happened.

We first faced an issue of not being able to place orders through many of our purchasing accounts on 4 November 2017, the launch date of our ’11.11’ campaign. We started our ’11.11’ sales pre-campaign on 4 November 2017. Since then, we had recruited a few hundreds of purchasing agents including small companies and individuals to overcome the issue. Due to the overwhelming customer queries, we have also added 40 new Customer Service Officers (CSO) within 2 weeks. Below is a chronological timeline of the incident from 4 November to 4 December 2017.

4 November 2017: On 4 November 2017, 161 purchasing accounts on Taobao begun to have issues while checking out the items in the e-shopping cart, with the following error message: “As there are overwhelming customers checking out, kindly try again later”.

Our immediate resolution to this issue was to clarify directly with the Taobao CSOs, which was conducted through our purchasing agents. Multiple queries were subsequently directed to Taobao CSOs over the next few days, however, we observed that more purchasing accounts started to receive the same error message. Subsequent replies received from the Taobao CSOs had the following message: “Your account looks abnormal and cannot be used; however, we can’t disclose the reason behind it”.

These purchasing accounts have been actively operating for several years, without any issues before 4 November 2017.

8 November 2017: Our 4 days ’11.11’ event was scheduled to start on 8 November 2017. We had set up 210 new purchasing accounts to facilitate a smooth order process. However, all 210 accounts were unable to carry out the processing of orders and seemed to be facing technical restrictions. We were unable to assist customers in completing their order from Taobao and had to put up an announcement on our website to inform our customers that our purchasing agents are blocked by an e-commerce website, and have to stop taking orders through ‘Buy-For-Me’ service for China. 

11 November 2017: Our 2 main warehouses in China, specifically in Jia Xing and Dong Guan were blocked on the Taobao system. Our purchasing agent and ‘Ship-For-Me’ customers who were using their own Taobao accounts who had indicated similar shipping addresses, were also unable to process the checkout.

Our purchasing agents and customers clarified this directly with the Taobao CSOs but did not receive any response. Subsequently, only a few customers received a reply with the following message: "This is a system bug, they need 5-7 days to resolve". Since then, we have changed our warehouse addresses and recruited a new batch of purchasing agents.

13 November 2017: We put up an announcement during noon time to update our customers about  the progress of 11.11 orders, mentioned we would need another few days to process the order due to the restriction. Subsequently from 1pm to 10pm, another 200 purchasing accounts which directed all our customer’s orders to new warehouses were facing technical restrictions one by one.

At the same time, our purchasing agents received messages from sellers on Taobao asking if they were purchasing on behalf of ezbuy. Our purchasing agents were also notified that Taobao had informed them that our warehouse addresses in China was involved in “abnormal” activities, and the sellers' shops have had their credit points deducted by Taobao.

14 November to 30 November 2017: We sourced for additional 4 new warehouse addresses. However, 180 purchasing accounts which were directed to ship to 2 of these new warehouses were facing technical restrictions as well.


1 December to 3 December 2017: Another round of purchasing accounts was blocked. More than 300 purchasing accounts were also facing technical restrictions, as long as these accounts had indicated our warehouse addresses.


Before this incident, we used to process orders, finish inspection and repacking within a few hours to a day. However, with the constraints raised during the past few weeks, it took us much longer to process our customers' orders and we are very sorry about the inconvenience caused.

Under such circumstance, we should give all customers who’re affected a timely update, however, we didn’t manage to do it well after 13 November. As mentioned, every time after our updates, we were slowed down immediately. We had to keep adjusting our plans and finding new methods to overcome the constraints. Therefore, we decided to keep silent to public until we clear the backlogs, otherwise our customers’ orders would suffer from more severe delay.

We know this incident has resulted in lot of delays, and our customer service officers were hard to reach, we are sorry for all these inconveniences caused. Lately we may be slow in response, but we will reply all of you including after-sales issue.

Last but not least, we are thankful to those who have been supporting us, encouraging us and being patient on us. You have given us the greatest motivation.

Ya their service is also good nor bad to me too. but their price is a bit pricier than taobao itself because of their "rate". I recently just applied for prime some more.

Got one time, i bought a plastic cupboard and the corner got cracked. I reported it and they refunded 20%! rclxms.gif

But seems like they are having serious operational issue now to function as a forwarder. maybe kena "squeezed" by taobao itself since they are also doing similar forwarding. But their prime RM8 for bulk item damn cheap though. I bought dried from china through them and each time more than 5 kilos thats why worth it.

Look like taobao aiming on ezbuy only... not sure about other taobao agent.

Anyway... relate to ezbuy:
Last year 11/11 they experienced some difficulty to handle the huge order, good that they provided some update on their website about the progress on 11/11 and warehouse issue.
My next order on 12/12 after 11/11, smooth transaction and parcel arrived before Christmas, thumb up for them.

I am disappoint how they handle our order in this year 11/11, very bad on provide announcement/update on why order been delay in their website!
I did suggest them to put announcement (or any status update) about this, yet I didn't see new announcement other than the one on 13/11.
Apparently ezbuy took 24 days to have new announcement (07/12) about the order on 11/11 ... this is very bad. sad.gif

This year 11/11 - I placed order on taobao / ezbuy.
For taobao, order on 11/11 arrived to Malaysia on 19/11, this was very FAST! thumbup.gif
For ezbuy, I just got one parcel on 07/12 via ninjavan, another parcel still in OTW to Malaysia. sad.gif
