No idea. Suddenly I received a notification from the Taobao app says it's delivered
No WhatsApp received like from Shopee Express / Best Ekspress / Flash Exspress / Ninja Van or any other local couriers

Even the sticker on the parcel only shows CAINIAO LE

I too received a direct air shipping package from Taobao via TMYLE. I asked the delivery boy, it's via Lazada. My box's sticker had LEX on the bottom left, and he said I should be able to track it via Cainiao's App. I did try the Global Cainiao website tracking but it never gave a result.

No, the TMYLE tracking doesn't work anywhere.
I tried using the tracking number on the Cainiao website, but it doesn't work there either.

Haven't tried AliExpress yet. But their item pricing very different to me. Some of them followed exact same amounts like China sellers on Shopee and Lazada. But some prices are converted after US dollar so become ridiculously expensive.

Taobao all using yuan. Bought books, utensils, journaling stuff from there prices all cheaper than what I found on Shopee and Lazada even after converted to RM and shipping cost.

AliExpress is more towards the Western market. If you look carefully the prices often say free shipping but it's actually factored into the item price already. Taobao vendors don't do this because there's simply too much competition within China, they can easily lose customers if they pull such tricks. Apparently the Taobao star system is very strict.

AliExpress is ok if you're buying one item that you really want, but if you buy multiple things from different vendors at the same time, think of each item having their own shipping cost factored in. Taobao you have the option of consolidation.

Actually you are right, it is delivered by Lazada. Wonder if Lazada customer service would be able to check if we give them this tracking number. Will try again next time if I get the TMYLE tracking, will contact Lazada CS and ask them to track to find out the actual location of the parcel.

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 ?
