Buy from taobao

There is a growing trend of Singaporeans buying from Taobao to seemingly fulfill all their shopping needs. This can range from clothes, to home furnishings, to bicycles and even large-sized items like sofas!Taobao agent

However, what shoppers have sometimes found frustrating is that most Taobao vendors on Taobao (or other Chinese online shopping sites) do not offer direct shipping to Singapore. Or if they do, the shipping fees to bring your purchases to Singapore are horrendously expensive. 

This is why more and more Singaporeans are turning to parcel forwarding agents to help them ship to Singapore. Some popular ones include 65Daigou, Peeka, SGshop, Oops and so on. 

If you didn’t already know, what can these parcel forwarding agents do for you?

Most Taobao vendors offer free or subsidized shipping within China.  Ship your items to one of these agents’ warehouses in China, and the parcel forwarding agent will forward the shipment to you in Singapore.

But more importantly, these agents help you liaise with Taobao vendors in Mandarin to ask crucial questions such as the volumetric weight* vs. the actual weight of the item, packaging details, as well as other important info that newbie shoppers may not know to ask.  It makes the Taobao shopping experience a whole lot easier and stress-free !
