vanessa 12 Report post Posted January 21, 2013 I have searched through the forum, but there isn't a thread on good sites fellow forumers have found deals on taobao. There are heaps of good reviews on how reasonable and good certain items like flat packed furniture, lighting (from pendant to LED lights), and even kitchen/bathroom fixtures like taps etc. Can successful buyers share the links to the taobao dealers they used? And any dealers we should avoid. Very keen on buying some stuff there to save money, but my mandarin isn't the best....hoping for some help.Thank you! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vanessa 12 Report post Posted January 21, 2013 I will get the ball rolling...from renotalk, type in "Jomoo 水龙头" and there is a china made brand that seems to have good reviews from the local chinese and from some forum members. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am actually on your tblog right now reading through the items from amazon. I have also liked the fb page...but i thought maybe one just dedicated to taobao might come in handy...easier to zoom in and get tips. heh! Btw,, do keep posting when the sales are for like robinsons, mayer etc....that will come in very handy.....I am sure a lot of people will appreciate it. How do you become a robinson member?
