last time,i buy fr buymall.

i think their price too expensive.

any platform courier service to buy from?

can use CAINIAO, use MYBRI for 10% discount

i bought a lot of used pc parts from 闲鱼. 2nd hand or some very closed to new conditions. very very cheap price.

I then ship it to my forwarder in foshan and then ship back here (via air/sea), no need to pay for the 10% tax.

What is mybri? Also can give link for cainow? Thought they were taobao's own shipper



Can give link for shipper?

you try search for this "佛山海义国际货运代理有限公司"

actually there are a lot of similar forwarder.. might be more than 100.. so a lot of choices.

long time ago i used to buy things from taobao and used their official delivery.. notice the price is very high and w SST too.. then only i changed to third party forwarder to save the cost.

need to buy yourself in 闲鱼？
my account can't be activate in 闲鱼 due to some verification not approved

Yea the price is freaking low for used price, more than 50% off
Is that legit authentic or just OEM(fake) for the stuff that you bought?

Im eyeing for Sihoo Ergonomics Chair

hahaha. its depends.. if the seller is with high rating then nothing much to worry.

all the items i bought are authentic from trusted seller.

ya use forwarder no need to pay 10% tax. if use my discount code on CAINIAO further discount 10%. What i found out is a lot of forwarder round up the volumetric weight and it became more expensive.

ya, they are the official logistic party. u can download the app from play store

https://play.google.com/store/search?q=cainiao&c=apps&gl=my

just enter the code whenever you gather enought parcel and checkout. the code 'MYBRI' is good until further notice

ya, need to buy using ur own account.

Usually how do you guys checkout and ask seller to send to forwarder? Want to explore thjs option. Do you key in the address of the forwarder?

I do always buy from taobao but just use their own shipping, mostly use ship (quite cheap) and sometimes can get cheap air mail too.

yes, you key in ur forwarder address with your assigned identifier code when you make purchase.

So this means i will need to engage the forwarder first.
When engaging them do i need to specify how many items and weight going there first or engage them then item reach there only the quote me shipping price?
Sorry for noob question cause never use forwarder before

1. install the app to get your identifier and forwarder address
2. buy everything you want from china shopping platform
3. use the app to keep track of parcel tracking info.
4. once every parcel arrived at warehouse, generate a combine shipping to Malaysia.
5. u will know the forwarding fee at this point, just pay and wait for the items to be delivered to your house.

no matter what service you use, the flow is roughly like this

Do you have experience of buying phone using your forwarder? Does it need to pass SIRIM certification?

if using forwarder "which they self claim 包报税”, then custom won't kacau and ask to do SIRIM license or approval for it.

I bought a lot of electrical appliances & never kena kacau ask for ST certificate or anything.

However, just need to be beware.. a lot of things could happend.. if seller/deliveries guy known that the phone is for international shipment, they can do something like swap other phone for you...or putting fake phone inside..

some forwarder do provide open box inspection service after received the items at warehouse with some charges.

Thanks. Looks like best way is still go buy physically in China.

btw.. the phone sold in china is different than the global version.. packed with tons of ads, and no esim slot.

Yup I know. Just some models only available there.

when was your last time to use this service?

pls dont be misunderstand.

i used to use this forwarder. but due to taobao has its own direct ship, i'm out of date.
and recently, i realized taobao charges is getting expensive.

my last use is last week, items will arrived this week to my house directly.

I have been using this services more than 20-30 times since many years ago when the sst for lgv was introduced.

Part of the reason are taobao official shipper doesn't accept fragile items (even though got additional woods protection).

2nd reason would be ridiculous high charges by taobao official shipper.

thanks! i need to revisit this service.

From app can pay for shipping by card for amount charged...or need to reload/recharge account (I saw lowest recharge amount is rmb 200 don't seem able to recharge lower amount)

yes, no need to top up also can one, top up in wallet just to get additional discount.
bear in mind the rate quoted is in rmb, so it is really cheaper compare to a lot of other platform.

No browser log in? App only? Sea how much per kg?

Just came across this site. It is a china-link platform based in Malaysia

Onesell

Just curious if I use Cainiao as forwarder to buy stuff from 闲鱼 China, are they also like other forwarders where SST is kaodim-ed?

i not sure if you can deliver non-taobao item to cainiao. unless in cainiao app they got provide you the forwarder ID & userID, but need to further check with their customer service. But its complicated, cainiao got a lot of restrictions & prohibitions & more expensive.

For sst things, in Taobao, its calculated when you check out (when using official forwarder)., and there will be no further sst charges when you consolidated items in the warehouse for shipping back.

However, there will be no SST for taobao if you use 3rd party forwarder in china.. as system will determine you buy the item for use in china.

NO SST for 闲鱼

ya, app only. 4.80rmb/kg before discount. It will be cheaper not because of the rate but how it can accumulate and no round up.

ya, no SST. I think seafood platform cant direct ship oversea at the moment.

you can use cainiao for every platform

if 10.5kg they won't charged 11kg? rm4.8 before discount?

not ringgit malaysia but 4.8 renminbi

if final total is 10.5kg, they will charge 11kg

but if item1 is 5.5kg and item2 is 5.2kg, total is 10.7kg and charged 11kg.

i used a lot of other platform where they will count as 6+6=12. volumetric one they will over charge even more.

another benefit is CAINIAO will compensate you up to 5000rmb if something happen to ur shipment. Other company either you have to buy insurance or bear your own risk.

a lot cheaper compared to shopee?

For your info im looking at Sihoo C300



Shopee price RM2099 (including shipping)
Taobao RM1157 (excluding shipping)
XianYu RM600

The seller wrote NEW / direct factory, but i think it's fake and counterfeit, same molding but without brand name, like OEM. Just guessing, price too low to be true.

just installed the app and see
seems like many different seller but all writing same description
the price exclude shipping is less than 300

better dont risk
cheap sure got fish

it's like China version of Mudah je la
Used market

Price too cheap confirm fake, might as well buy from local platform where you can file a return when received fake/damaged etc

ya, a lot of fake on seafood platform. it is hard to return even if you are in china

First time ship with cainiao and after customs clearance on the 7th no update, flash express supposed to pickup but nothing, tracking (CNMYF) not exist on their system. Call flash and they say cancelled from their system, check with cainiao and they say everything normal. Look like parcel really disappear

Time to point out elephant in the room. You know I know la, these forwarders got special cable with customs from both sides, when it's their turn during custom inspection, close both eyes, pretend they never exist

buy using taobao?? If declared lost then cainiao will compensate

Do those pc parts include GPU? Any tips when it comes to avoiding scams on 闲鱼.
I read several posts on forums, seems like there is no guarantee when it comes to second hand GPU on any platform on China.
The prices are all quite similar on JD, Taobao, 闲鱼

闲鱼 cant register..haiz.. try few time also kenot. keep ask china number...

for gpu is very hard to differentiate if it was used for mining before sell for second hand. Taobao still Ok, at least you can hold the payment if something not right.

bro, thanks a bunch.

https://www.haiyi1688.com/ turned out to be a very good and affordable shipment option!

Yes, it is. somemore if you use alipay pay in rmb and binding to wise or bigpay. there will be very less bank charges or conversion fee.
