Oh, we can order through the agents and they help us to purchase. Or we can purchase RMB from them and they will top up our Alipay account then we can buy directly from the seller. This is a better method, no need to pay commission to the agents!

this the one that charge me 60sg plus for shipping for something that weight less than 5 kg cuz they will either go for the weight or

volume which is the greatest so be careful if the taobao seller decided to give u a big box for something that is small then you will have to

pay alot for the volume

Also try http://www.6spree.com.sg/. i have not used the guy before but he seems responsive on msn.

Hey Hoo,

Check this out http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=16897884599&

Replica Zano, or maybe Zano get from there. Heard Zano having sales to clear stocks, maybe bringing in the 2nd generation ones. Washable, kind of plastic material...

Hi, sorry for absence, my house is still messy and thank god i just found my camera cable so be able to share some photos.

The 60cm dia retro style clock for living room, bought for about RMB130 from Taobao, I thought it is copper/metal finish but is wood instead, but still like it

Curtain for living room, 6.5metre lenght, 2 layers, cost about RMB500. Quality wise

Small alarm clock (also retro style) for bedroom, piggy is just companion, got it from TB also, less than S$10, received in spoilt condition, I repaired it and end result the clock is working but not the alarm... better than nothing

Hitachi RZ582EMSX, this one not get from Taobao, from Mega at S$900 with free vacuum cleaner

Bar table, as work table for time being. The stool got from S&C, S$100 for 2, like the design

The wine rack, I commented that the finishing is a bit of dissapointed, so I repaint it with white gloss paint, for me now is better than last time

The scorpion wine, good for man

Little accessory for the living room, price is so much cheaper than in Singapore, I think is less than RMB10 each

Lastly, the crystal curtain, it is quite heavy actually, so I guess is not plastic, like it, regardless of what it is made of
