My parcel is already in Malaysia’s custom. It’s wrote custom cleared and it’s hasn’t been updating anymore since 30th April

Then you should enquire with the courier service. If you're using Taobao's official shipping, then it should be GDExpress.

not sure if it's myself facing this issue...

i tried to use direct shipping / air freight for many stuff such as clothes / toys, even tried one per order but these options not available anymore

only left with sea freight and contact seller options...

how come ?
*
I also encountered this before. My guess is maybe the stuff I want to order has highly flammable chemical or paint on them. hmm.gif

Or maybe Taobao wants to force me to use its sea shipping service which has a ridiculous volumetric fee charges. ranting.gif

Don't know about sea shipping but the cost of air shipping does increased.
Now, parcel will be charge RMB21 for the first 500g and RMB15 every subsequent 500g.

all the sellers ?

i tried clothes with diff sellers ...same issue

don't tell me clothes are sensitive items

even the stuff that i used to buy before using TGDS now no longer has TGDS / air freight options
*
Could be because lack of flights? hmm.gif

Anyway, I also puzzled why I can't select air shipping with my order of some Ultraman figures. doh.gif

Wanted to check if anyone knows are computer parts such as mainboard and CPU are sensitive items?
*
Bought CPU before and no problem using air shipping.

QUOTE(lyc1982 @ May 11 2020, 03:31 PM)
bummer right

not that i don't wanna use sea freight because of longer delivery time...but i don't like the way they calculate the shipping fee + 6% on item's price
*
I vowed not to use their sea shipping anymore.
I rather buy from Shopee even if they are cost a little bit more.

Hi,

I am here again asking if anyone knows for consolidated shipping has any coupon? I saw like a 18RMB coupon for shipping last time but don't really understand.
*
It means a rebate of RMB18 for the total of your consolidate shipping fee.

The train mao game right, I suppose we can open the red packet on 16th of June? How do we use the red packet RMB? Can it be used for consolidated shipping or just can be use for buying items?

Thanks ya first time playing with the hong bao
*
When you checkout, just above the total payment, you'll see how much your red is being used.
If you're using handphone, be sure to check out the black box in TMall.
You'll get a little red packet. Not much, but it can be used both for checkout and consolidate shipping payment.

this fucking taobao is so annoying i use consolidated shipping cause i bought 2 item now the one item is cancelled the item i ordered is on hold and waiting for the other item wtf man i already cancelled the item and why my item is on hold at warehouse really dont understand how do i pay for my shipping fees and get it shipped
*
I think the refund procedure is different for the canceling an order before the seller post out the item,
and the item arrived and being kept in the warehouse.

For better understanding of refund, you can refer the link below:

Same, I paid for my consolidation yesterday and also noted the new tracking CNMYB. I have also never heard of Best Express and would appreciate any information regarding this company.
*
Just got my stuff delivered by Best Express, it's a guy in his private car.
Can considered very fast as my stuff reached Malaysia and passed custom yesterday, and now delivered today.

Hi guys, is anyone facing the same problem as mine? What should I do next? The status asking me to contact customer service. While status on SF Express showing my item has been passed to Zhang Xueling (not sure its a person name or company name).

No need to worry about that, it's pretty normal. It's just to show you that your parcel is being
handle by that person. If you have any inquiry, that's the person to contact.

Guys this is my current tracking status on Taobao app and it remained like this since Tuesday. Will there be any further updates? Currently I have no idea which courrier picked up my parcels and the tracking number doesn't seem to work even on Cainiao
