What is the difference between TaoBao Global Direct and Taobal Global Consolidate? I noticed that Global Direct also uses some carrier from Global Consolidate and goes thru warehousing and delivering procedures. If both charges the same rates wouldn’t Global Direct be more efficient as TaoBao will help us consolidate anyways (via purchase of multiple items thru Cart)? the only reason I can think of if we split our purchases and wouldn’t want to duplicate shipping charges, then Global Consolidate makes sense.

Hi, this may not be the appropriate avenue but how do I change HANDPHONE / MOBILE no on my account after the initial registration?

I realized I need mobile password confirmation for all my transaction.

Thanks. But when I clicked Global Direct I noticed in the end TaoBao automatically consolidate several purchases from different vendors for me in a warehouse before delivering to Malaysia, instead of sending the items individually.

But you are right, Global Consolidate has more carriers…only thing i noticed is the highest rated carrier in Global Consolidate is also the one used by Tao Bao for Global Direct.

Havent tried Global Consolidate though…will give it a go the next round.
