  1. The seller ask me to check the warehouse address and then how can I know the address of the warehouse? Is it warehouse or forwarder~ The seller told me “亲国外的地址这个发不了货的, 发国外的话是快递到达转运仓之后您发给那边帮您转运的亲”. lol

  2. Hi Eric 🙂 I’m about to purchase a bunch of item using Taobao Global direct shipping, a method I have been using for the past year with no issues so far. However, the Direct Shipping option did not appear today when i was about to make payment. Do you perhaps know the reason why? It cannot be that the vendor does not provide overseas shipping as i’m a regular purchaser of most of these vendors that I am about to make purchases from. Do kindly advice 🙂

  3. Hi Eric, i have been receiving taobao parcels from skynet but my last parcel, i had to track it on ABX express. Did they change malaysia’s local courier?? How did taobao choose between skynet or abx?

  4. Hi Eric, I used Taobao direct shipping to buy my things and the items arrived but the seller did not send out a part of the item. I have informed the seller and the seller said will resend out to me. Do I need to do anything or just wait for the item to arrive ?
