QUOTE(kaienz @ Jun 16 2018, 12:07 PM) Is it? I contacted 4px customer service but they never mention anything about that, just ask me to wait custom clearance. Thats y I'm wondering if anyone else having issues with china custom. Usually is our customs giving problems lol I think because of TMall having 618 sales. I'm having a hard time login to Taobao website because of that.

QUOTE(acepilot12 @ Jun 23 2018, 03:41 PM) what rate you're using? are you using google to convert? do remember there's 1.5% charges from bank when u transfer money in taobao how do you pay that 26rmb? direct to taobao? It's RMB26 ÷ 1.578 (depending on the exchange rate). I transfer the money to Alipay through Maybank. Hope this answer your questions.

QUOTE(culain99 @ Jul 5 2018, 01:36 PM) Anyone use sea ship option taobao can comment, want buy small item but only can choose sea ship maybe due to battery. Item very cheap not worth to pay sensitive charge thru agent (cost more than item) I'm using sea shipping for the first time. I'm buying a small outdoor camera that I want to use as CCTV. Even though the box that contain the camera is not big, they calculate it in volumetric which costs more than air shipping. If you have no problem with the cost of shipping, then you can have a try.

QUOTE(adamw @ Jul 5 2018, 02:26 PM) But current exchange rate online shows 1.65, 1.578 was during what rates? Their current exchange will always be a little bit lower than what you find online. Usually 3-4 cents only.

This is odd. I'm being charge with ¥13.66 for a 1kg parcel instead of ¥9.5 for Lazada sea shipping. No indication that any of my stuff has volumetric charges. And clearly they weigh under 1kg. So what is happening here? Has anyone encounter this before? Update: Wow! Didn't know Lazada sea shipping charges GST upon payment.

QUOTE(Kite1020 @ Oct 24 2018, 11:17 AM) Hi guys, have you guys ever encounter long custom clearance time? My order has been in the same status for almost 10 days, still says that it's clearing custom. This is my first time encountering this long period, usually it only takes 3 - 4 days at most. Same here. My stuff was send to custom clearing on 13/10. Until now no update at all.
