What is the heaviest anyone here bought from direct Taobao air shipping? Mind to share?
I'm looking to get some stainless steel kitchen racks but only worth it with freight shipping I'm afraid...

Hi all, have you all use 4PX as the official forwarder? They ask us to goto www.transrush.com to check their updates, now need to create an account with them to check ka? :-/
Why they can't update into the system like others?

QUOTE(NightFelix @ Nov 16 2016, 09:28 AM) I use 4PX. you can check directly from your Taobao account. My last update just says check in www.transrush.com, both in cainiaoguoguo and taobao... anyway i checked with the cust support it says that status means already out and flying or clearing customs.. so should be ok, thanks!

QUOTE(wirna @ Nov 23 2016, 12:54 PM) Hi..just wanted to ask..bought something, from Taobao and shipped to DEX warehouse. Seller sent using 韵达快递 but from 15th Nov. until now no update in tracking at all..Emm..wondering where is the parcel now..seller is not helping..should I click refund, or should i just wait? You can search for 韵达快递 in google, usually there is the online tracking site, put in the number see where the item is. Alternatively call the cust service for 韵达快递 - again, should be able to find on google, ask them what is the status or why not moving. If tracking num cannot be found, then u have no choice but to bug the seller.

QUOTE(NightFelix @ Dec 1 2016, 11:01 AM) talking to the forwarding support. (yes very hard to communicate even thou I can speak/type in Mandarin)  tell them to re-ship the missing parcel OR re-locate where is the parcels in their warehouse Also, you need to communicate to the seller to verify the parcel, see whether have been signed/delivered to your forwarding warehouse or not. I have 1 parcel left in the warehouse that they left out to send, now they try to resend to me again. Another 2nd parcel was delivered&signed by forwarding warehouse but, they couldn't locate it due to seller (this is seller fault) didn't include the tracking number provide to the forwarding warehouse. So forwarding have no idea that parcels is for who. But the 2nd parcel also resolved as I manage to get the tracking number from seller and provide to forwarding customers support, and she help me to update my system info and try to re-ship to me. I'm just curious, how do they miss things out and left in warehouse? Isit the official forwarder or the 3rd party one? If the official forwarder don't the system show that in their package got the items listed? If 3rd party shipping, don't you also need to pick the list of items that should be sent?

QUOTE(NightFelix @ Dec 2 2016, 01:49 PM) 1) all the while I only use official forwarder. (if you browse on Global.Taobao.com, unless you use www.Taobao.com which allow you to use 3rd Party One (but Taobao also endosed them), also there are also some other 3rd Party not endosed by Taobao) 2) As long you use official one, the official forwarder will get the order on their system, whether the parcel they received or not is depend on seller got provide the tracking or not. Just like my previous case, order already, but forever shown on the system pending shipping, because seller got ship to my forwarder warehouse (forwarder will sign anything whatever they got it) but seller failed at providing the tracking to my forwarder, so they don't know they already signed the stuff which in fact belongs to me. 3) if 3rd party shipping, you need to manually select which and what to send and then pay again. Unlike official one that do all the jobs for you without you to worry anything (if touchwood nothing bad happen). But if you ask me, if you are really can read Chinese and tech savvy enough, use 3rd party are better, because they do re-pack, and cheaper, and you can know which already signed/received or pending or missing or change of mind return back to seller (which still inside China) and more reason! I've tried both official and 3rd party, so far I've only shipped a couple times and my first 3rd party freight shipping is on its way, so touch wood i dont encounter such issues above, but I'm just curious so want to expect what sort of things can go wrong and why. Thanks for your detailed clarification.

QUOTE(NightFelix @ Dec 2 2016, 03:13 PM) I'm using 3rd Party shipping very long time already, very simple to use. Meanwhile, my 2nd batch purchase got screw up again. last batch got 2 left out of 5 items. Now I got 1 left out out of 11 items. Whats wrong with the Official forwarding.  Which 3rd party do you use, how's the price like? I've encountered some freight shipping that only calculate actual weight instead of volumetric weight but not sure how good or reliable they are... While the ones i've seen good reviews I kena volumetric weight.. from 5kg becomes 8kg.. =,=;;

QUOTE(NightFelix @ Dec 3 2016, 10:12 AM) Official now I'm using is this one: (I think only visible on Global.Taobao.com) CHINA ORIENTAL EXPRESS COMPANY LTD 深圳市秀驿国际物流有限公司 3rd Party, I use this first on the list, called 4PX for almost 3/4 years and never failed me: (it can be found easily on www.Taobao.com) The another 2 called, Prouter (my friend use this) and LeQuGo (never use before) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Source: https://sea.taobao.com/howtobuyOoh, I always use the china taobao so I never see that oriental company lol... My "official" I mean by 4PX, Prouter - these two I've used before but I kinda like 4PX service, quite prompt so far. By 3rd party I mean the outside shipping companies.

QUOTE(max_cjs0101 @ Apr 6 2017, 09:14 AM) Hi guys, just a quick question. Are your packages registered as in you're able to track your orders? Generally can track, if there is really no tracking number given can initiate chat with the customer service to ask for it.
