tot the exchange rate is abt S$1 to RMB 5.00

So 100 yuan is abt S$20

think the rate kwokser3n3 checked is japanese yen

now RMB should be around 4.50 to S$1

b4 u commit to buy from them, do ask clearly abt the payment mode and final amt (incl EMS freight)

usually they need a CHINA bank account to make transfer.

if not, will need to arrange direct $$ transfer via Western Union (at a fee of S$20 per tt)

But this is very risky since u do not noe the person at all.

as for me, I see the rating the seller has earned and the feedback page for any possible complaints.

then me oso limit my purchase to certain amount. so even if it is a failed purchase, the involvement is not so big IMHO. me received my items within 3 days

oso my chinese writing is not great as well. Me used alot of goggle translate to help out

Or a simple way, type taobao spree in search engine. it may lead u to a local blog where they gather orders for local buyers. pay abit of fee to enjoy the breeze of online shopping! that's what I heard of...

Yeah, quite risky buying thru the web as yr item might not arrived after yr payment.

I had brought some wall decal from the local forum but the flowers turn out to be bigger than what i had in mind. Still can't decide whether to paste or not.

At last, my reno is considered to be completed (though my DIY writing table is not yet done )

My last carpentry is my MBR TV feature wall console. As the only wall we could spare for TV is on the right of our bed, I requested to make the feature 'adjustable' ie the whole console can be opened (like a door) and tilted to an angle for ez viewing and push back when not watching tv.

using the same leather-like laminate we used for our MBR wardrobe...

Feature wall 'closed'

Feature wall 'opened'

shall do a review of the whole reno soon...
