My Taobao hauls!



Yay, Taobao loots just arrived at my door step! The postman called me and I asked him to leave at my door step cus no one is at home now 



Cousin will only be back home around 2.30 pm. Hopefully my parcel is still there!! Don't take my parcel everybohee!!! 




Cousin reached home and helped me to pull this ugly loots of taobao back home. Haha, so ugly the packaging    



I can't wait to get back home after work to see all my loots!! Excited!! 



After reaching home I rushed off to shower and check the arrival of my taobao loots! 




I got 28 items including two Coach inspired mirrors This is only half of my items   Btw, I ordered directly from Taobao.com without agents so no agent fees. I used forwarder agents which I paid for shipping fees to warehouse and shipping for delivery to SG.

Another 3 items is coming next batch, paid for shipping already! Weee, bag bag bag! 

The items I liked the most were the bags & mirrors! Only one bag pictured here cus my brother's gf birthday coming soon, I can give that to her as birthday present although I have initially ordered for her to be given as gift (this pic is from insta, she is following me there so I don't wanna let her know what birthday present I bought for her).



I submitted my Taobao orders on 14 March. In total, I purchased 31 items! Biggest hauls ever using my own $$ 

Total bill for all 31 items w/o shipping fees was $136.22 so I used the Taobao 500 credits ($100) that I won from a giveaway and topped the remaining $36.22.


For shipping, it costs me $41.26. There is no sea shipping so I used 4PX courier - No agent fees but if compared to Daigou; $40+ shipping fees is like agent + shipping fees but longer waiting time for stuff to arrives.

It took 12days to arrives at my door step and the courier even gave me a call just now at 12+ when I was having break time at work. He said if there is anyone at home, I told him no and asked him to leave at my door step then he asked if he could sign on the invoice on my behalf. Of course, I said yes! I don't want him to bring the items back and I have to wait again. 



Trying to comfort myself for the nearly $80 spent on Taobao loots that 9 bags for shipping fees $41+ is considered quite alright yea? Cus bags are heavier than clothes.

The main shopping trip on Taobao to me is actually getting myself new bags as I'm not so into clothing though anymore :/
