To continue from my previous entry here, I have started my search for the different types of forwarders to ship our purchases from Taobao, and Peeka seems to be a popular choice among Bloggers. (Additional information: Peeka is also the forwarder for TMall, Dangdang, Amazon.cn, JD.com).
In the order of Google search engine results, I have consolidated all their entries for ease of reference below:
- Monoxious
- Sugar, Spice, Everything Nice
- Little Red Cap
- Popiah's Life
Psst! Popiah's Life also did a review of other Taobao forwarders and I even found out about buying things from Japan through her blog. Whoop whoop!
There was a short review on Renotalk regarding Peeka. You can read about it here.
In Summary:
Peeka ships the items that you have purchased according to the volume instead of the weight of the item(s), unlike other forwarders. Peeka also checks the items for you before shipping it to you. This is very important because sometimes, what the Taobao seller puts up for sale on pictures, can be very different from the actual item. You can read about it here. However, the downside of using Peeka is that it is not exactly cheaper than other forwarders........which boils down to the same thing; shipping cost. Hahahahais.
You know, it's like having a car, but we are all not very willing to pay for the ERP/carpark fee. Yep. We are all calculative like that. Haha.
Meh. :/
Anyway... In the thread from Renotalk forum, someone posted a Facebook page (closed group) for Taobao Deals here and I have just requested to enter the group. Hopefully, the admins accepts my request. :B
Till the next entry, insya'Allah.
