    Thanks! Yours are the ones with three switches on a plate? Means it links to three different light sources?

    Hi Raydon, you got your sink from Sellena taobao? Did the seller take very long to ship out?

    Oh ok I see, thanks LHWH!

    After informing the Krono guy that I had collected my keys, he informed me that they had some new colors to choose from. And so I traveled all the way from west to east to take a look at the new colors and choose my final flooring. The two planks below are two of their new colors. Very similar to the white and gray that I had posted previously, but the gray looks more distressed, hence have decided on the gray.

    So...have collected the keys to my new place. Nothing much has happened since then since still need to wait 1 month for cement screeding and for hacking of the walls. I expected a BTO to be small, but the master bedroom was really much smaller than expected. Luckily I had intended to hack the adjoining wall to the common bedroom to make it bigger. Will be meeting Mr Foo with the aircon person soon to go through the laying of the aircon. And doing tile selection after. Not much to select anyway since I will only be overlaying the bathrooms and subway tiles for the kitchen. Placed some orders from Taobao, this time using Amcon direct. A bit nerve-wrecking at first, but thanks to OceanEleven's guide, managed to muddle my way through and now I'm getting the hang of it! 1. Sellena sink 2. Kitchen tap 3. A variety of hangers: here, here and here 4. First aid box 5. Eames lounge chair 6. Track light tracks and bulbs (thanks to Nickguthe who helped a lot with determining whether to use warm or bright white lights) 7. A variety of lights from July tmall shop By the way, does anybody know if the lights come with bulbs? Like those pendant lamps etc, does it come with a bulb or we have to buy ourselves separately? In addition, I am thinking of getting these to replace the HDB sinks. Any advice from people who have bought sinks from taobao before? Anything I should look out for? For master bathroom: For common bathroom

    Hi lovescandi, which agent did you use for your taobao purchase?
  7. Puggy
    Wow the house is looking really good! Nickguthe, for your track lights, did you get warm light or the bright white light?

    Hi HLJL, interested to know about the blinds too! Can PM me as well?

    Quite interested to see how the contractor executes your idea! If he is as good as K, I can imagine his business will boom after people read your t-blog.

    Hi Jasminnie, I assume the peephole runs on battery though? How do you change the battery when it runs out?

    Ordered some home accessories from taobao and received it this week. I used trading1. Next time shall try ordering myself and using Amcon. Anyway, the stuff I ordered pretty much was ok, except for two foot pedal bins that I wanted to place in the bathrooms. One was badly dented. The other's lid was not properly aligned and the bin would wobble when I stepped on the foot pedal. I am pretty sure that the dent was not due to shipping because there was no dent in the box at all. Anyway this is the seller I bought it from. I got the 3L one http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=4008344222 Crown seller some more. Sigh.

    All the best in your reno bianzi! I'm sure everything will turn out alright in the end.

    Finally gotten my key collection date, which is next week and I can't wait to start the reno process! Although I do feel slightly intimidated by it as well.
  16. Puggy
    Thanks OceanEleven, you have been such a great help! Sorry for hijacking your thread to ask about taobao!
  17. Puggy
    Wow your house looks amazing! Very eclectic and I love the colors that you used.

    Hi nickguthe, did your contractor say why the shampoo shelves are not HDB approved? I was thinking of doing this too, looks nicer than having a rack. The honeycomb looks really nice, Also, may I know how many HDB square tiles is your shower area?
  19. Puggy
    Oh ok I see. I guess I shall try my hand at using Amcon when my reno starts. When do you reckon would be a good time to start ordering? I am looking at getting lights, kitchen tap and sink from taobao.
  20. Puggy
    Ohh ok I see, thank you! I understand some items come flat pack and we assemble ourselves, but if we are buying sofas/loungers, do you know how they would ship it? I am looking at a replica Eames lounge chair, not sure if should order from taobao because it's close to $600.

    Hi OceanEleven, Have you bought taobao through agent like peeka before? Are the fees through agent much more expensive than using Amcon?
  22. Puggy
    Hi northhaven, May I know how many feet is your wardrobe? Mr Foo is also my ID, but I haven't gotten my keys yet! Hopefully soon though.
  23. Puggy
    Really gorgeous sofa, is it a chesterfield?
  24. Puggy
    Ok, thanks for confirming!

    Hi OceanEleven, Sorry I got kind of a stupid question regarding taobao lights. China power plug is different from Singapore right? So if we buy those lamps (table lamps, standing lamps) which plug into the power point, we have to use the converter? But this is not an issue when we buy the pendant lights/LED lights because they will be connected to the electrical wiring system right?
