Raydon 10 Report post Posted July 21, 2014 Hi Kooning,here you go.. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z09.2.9.64.M6mObC&id=20153153850&_u=l1umporm9e82Hi Raydon, do you have link for the towel hanger? Can share share? Hi Thunder,I used Oops.. they charge CNY50 per 0.1cbm. However, the min is 1cbm, which means the min you have to pay is CNY500. So, best to get as many items as possible. The service is not bad.. but i feel the shipping is a little bit slow. maybe because they only have 2 shipment per week.As they are facing some issues with the insurance companies, you will not be unable to get insurance to cover your stuffs. Insurance is optional btw. They are also unable to provide you the up-to-date cbm of your goods until you are ready to ship. so you have to estimate if your stuff is near or already more than the min 1cbm.the other popular one is Amcon - which i believe most renotalk-ers are using? its a little bit more expensive. have not personally used it but i believe the shipping should be faster as they have 4 shipment per week. Maybe others can share more on this forwarder. I chose oops because everything can be done online, no need to call etc. If i need to ship many items again, there is a high chance i will use them again.hope this help. cheers~Hi Raydon, can I know which forwarder did you use to ship the TB loot?

Raydon 10 Report post Posted July 24, 2014 (edited) my carpentry is finally up (partially)....not sure if u guys remember this for my MBR wardrobe... this is how it turn out.... the brown laminate has too much 'lines'.. prefer something simpler... the white laminate i choose is matt/rough finishing.. i jus read that it is more prone to turning yellow compare to glossy finish..is that true? my contractor did the laminate for the middle portion wrongly.. the lines supposed to be horizontal instead of vertical... do u think it will look better horizontal or like this?

Mine like more expensive. Only bottom with solid surface and it cost me 750 each! HahaBut my contractor did not quote me for all the plumbing works.
