First timer here I don't understand a single thing at all but I managed to get it charge my CC, then I get this, I only paid the price for the item itself, haven't been charged any delivery fee or anything, so there is supposed to be 2 payments is it?

QUOTE(kingkingyyk @ Feb 13 2016, 01:46 AM) You need to wait for the items to reach the warehouse, then choose the thing you want to ship here (where you will be told about the shipping fee). thanks a lot! seeing as I did not associate any e-mail address (except during CC payment) I guess in order to be notified I'd need to keep checking my Taobao account? I know China is still on holiday until at least the 14th (also depending on which day the seller is shipping out) but assuming that the seller sends out on the 17th, around what date would it reach the warehouse in China? Also, what is the rough shipping fee, considering it's a lightweight item (but might be charged volumetric due to it being 50cm wide) appreciate your help lots!

QUOTE(alucard89 @ Feb 13 2016, 12:30 PM) If you're unsure about the shipping fee, maybe you could try direct shipping next time which does save some money. So far the heaviest item I've bought so far is around 4.7kg (combined dimension size around 110cm) and shipping cost was only 32yuan (rm20). From seller to you is 32 yuan?! No inland China delivery fee to warehouse?

hay guys, just wanna update, 4PX contacted me, made payment of 35 yuan (for a 0.77kg item) because i couldn't find anything else to combine with.  well I'm okay with it, but I see that there is a 0.77kg/30kg indicator. Stupid question, but is 35 yuan a flat rate? If I were to order a 5 kg item it'll also be 35 yuan or is it way more? *for this scenario, my item is 41 RMB, obviously it is waaaaaaay cheaper to just use an agent

QUOTE(alucard89 @ Feb 19 2016, 03:34 PM) Should be extra 14 yuan/0.5 kg after the first 1kg And that's why you should also get price quote from taobao agent as well so you can compare which saves you more on shipping So far I've ordered item that's around 4kg, and only charged 32 yuan with taobao global direct shipping. I only ordered it because I was curious how it will compare against just ordering from an agent.  next round of unimportant items i'll try out global direct, for important stuff, always always always agent. btw, global direct shipping = 32 yuan but must be from one seller only right?
