I prefer to buy direct from seller, cheaper than ezbuy. Ezbuy already mark up the original price to make the false impression delivery charge cheaper. Another reason is i usually like to talk to few sellers myself to campare the quality & customize the item i want. Sometimes seller give discount or free gift if u buy large amount.
*
Based on my purchase from ezbuy, and some other agent their markeup is not that much, (my rough calculation) around 6% for currency exchange, the rest are still reasonable. Anyhow you still need to arrange local logistic if the product are heavy (that if the seller want to shop oversea)

yeah. seems they are setting up some more self collection points. but the issue with that is. not everything will be delivered at once.

for instance my current order.

4 items arrived di, not sent to me yet. apparently using ninja van.
1 item on the plane or wherever. still not marked as arrived.
2 items still in china. waiting for ship.

so if you wanna pick up gotta go at least 3 times. i think they just selamba throw on whatever ship/plane thats leaving. but if you pay the delivery fee to your house, then they will deliver when it arrives. the cost is their own problem. LOL.

It depend on the seller shipping pattern. The warehouse will not want to keep too long because it will be lost in the warehouse if it was keep too long. Lost as in misplaced, moved, stolen, damage. These things do happen everywhere.

yup. of course. no one want to hold things for too long as it also takes up valuable space. thats why ezybuy also just ship out whatever they have as soon as they can. so most economical is paying for delivery. just got first package from them today via ninjavan. another 2-3 otw.

Lucky for me now they have self collect at Bandar Puteri, convenient for me.

Thanks for the link.

If you can wait, is ok. If the deal are not "out of the world" kind of deal, better don't do 11.11 purchase.

They public announced to stop taobao.

https://www.todayonline.com/business/ezbuy-...pers-buy-taobao

Few week back, they official announced not going to deal with taobao in fb and main page. What they do now is recruit taobao seller. And put on their site. You notice now they don't link back to original page to get review and comment.
No more prime useful unless you all use for US

If you place the link,i think they will quietly place for you to prevent being lockouts again.

so advice is...not to use prime shipping for taobao for now ?

If your primary productions from taobao, yeah my advice don't. If products you wanted still have in prime (maybe from US, JD.com or other) still can consider, you can search the production first before decide.
