Shop to your heart's content with 65daigou

by - Friday, August 15, 2014

Hello, showing my ootd from the dress and red mini bag I bought from...yes where else but 65daigouRemember the new shopping agent I found the other time? 
I tried out their services and experienced shopping from Taobao China.
Here's the flowy, comfortable and lovely Chiffon Dress, perfect for a weekend out for tea.
Do you know what 'daigou' means? It took me some time to realize it's 代购 which means purchasing on your behalf. That's what 65daigou aims to do in bringing the best values for consumers. Not just on the China market, you can also shop Taiwan and USA with 65daigou

Sling cross bag in real authentic leather (or so was stated) with a certification and in very good quality.

What else have I got in my bag? 
As I chose sea shipping method, my orders took about 3 to 4 weeks to arrive, well that's because sea shipping is the most economical and there was a credit card discount going on back then. If you prefer a shorter wait, choose air shipping.  


You do know many items sold locally got its stocks from China or Korea right? Right now you can have direct access to the manufactures/ wholesalers in China via Taobao. 
Taobao is a shopping platform based in China and  things can be really cheap if you know how to search and source for them. Of course searching items at your preferable price range can be difficult and massive, especially when there are millions of vendors viving for your attention.

Here's how a typical website in Taobao looks like and many do not deliver outside China boundaries.
*Tip: Look out for sales and slashed prices on the vendors' website in Taobao. 


  Thus comes in the function of 65daigou,  acting as a middleman of sorts. With warehouses in Shanghai or Guangzhou, items sourced from Taobao all over China will be sent to either of the locations.
* Tip: pack in more items per order to save on shipping

Once all the items are consolidated, they will be re-packed and inspected, before sending off to the sea!

During the period when sellers deliver your goods to the 65daigou's warehouses, you will be constantly updated of their movement. One awesome fact about shopping via 65daigou is they actually check the condition and items specifications from the Taobao sellers before posting out, this definitely enhances quality assurance. 

To note: 

1st payment=  Product Cost

*Tip: Meanwhile, after payment, you might get notices from the sellers about items which require extra top-ups/notices such as color changes etc. You will still be able to cancel these orders if you feel that you no longer want to purchase them. The amount will be reimbursed back to your pre-pay 65daigou account. 

This is where you will see reimbursement for cancelled items which requires further actions after your first product cost payment. 
You are able to transfer remaining dollars in 'My PrePay' back to your bank account, no worries. 

Once all items have been cleared, this will appear under 'My Parcel'. It shows Items are pending from shipment from Shanghai warehouse and the shipping status. 


The status will then changed to 'Shipped' and for a lull period then will be no changes, till it reaches Singapore 

2nd payment= Shipping Fee + Agent Fee
2nd Payment arises once the items reached Singapore. Additional shipping and agent fees will be required and it's also time to arrange local delivery.
* Tip: look out for possible credit card on shipping fees 
* Tip: Choose self-collection to save some bucks~ 


Anyway here are the loots I have!
Brought some non-fashion related stuff... like... Shake n Take ( wanted to try out) and stuff to decorate my laptop and phone

Oh and I bought a camera bag! It's larger than expected. 
 Want to see how it looks like?? Scroll down~~ 


Another outfit I bought via 65daigou- blue crop top, casual relaxed look.
It just so happens to be blue again.


I also bought the Melody laptop hairband and pink Laptop keyboard protector to compliment. ^^

 Laptop LCD screen protector at cheap rocking prices.

This very good quality camera bag was my favourite! Can't wait to take it out.

On average I spent about $5 per apparel, the other items were kept at $2-$3 except for the shaker and camera bag ($20)
Tempted to start shopping and dig some treasures at fabulous prices along the way?
