All items bought in advance, yet to deploy them as unit still under reno. Base on the quality itself it's good, just don't tighten the adjusting socket too tight. Shipping usually arrived in 3 weeks time but do bear in mind Chinese New Year is around the corner therefore a long break will take place.

Thanks for the advice. Just browsing. Not sure what to do even after reading

yeah seems like you gotta have a lot of back and forth with the seller. even custom orders they will still need to do on site adjustment. and possibly they will forget pieces.... shakehead.gif

It is 1m3 volume, shipping fees rm420. But if i have done proper planning, there is still space to pack in many small items. I order & pay for the items myself to ship to asiadaigou store. I pay with hongleong wise card, coz taobao is under groceries group (only for hongleong wise card. Taobao is not groceries under other card, to enjoy 10% cash rebate). Asiadaigou arrange sea freighy shipment for me

really taobao is under groceries? i got a 5% cash back card, but not sure about that hahah. but RM420 is ok (incl. agent fee? or didnt need?) those chairs here i think are selling for RM150-200 so you already got your money back. haha

yes, it is cheap. but dont know how much shipping costs. or the quality... if comments are ok, then normally its pretty safe.

even this IKEA table is RM2.6k
http://www.ikea.com/my/en/catalog/products/00293767/

my bro recently bought wood one at Macy's about RM3.5k. so thats a pretty good deal. if you wanna add those special designs then good luck. gonna be mahal gile. like at Kare, for big size table with special design is 6k+
