Taobao logistics

When you shop on Taobao, do you generally use their official logistics service, or an unofficial third party?

Join the mailorder group on vanhack.slack.com and lets discuss there. There are enough of us to do group buys from time to time, this cuts down on the shipping costs since the first kg or two is much more expensive than the second of third.

When I’m doing a group buy I use the dirty pcbs china forwarding service. That lets you consolidate lots of taobao sellers into one overseas shipment. Unlike most agents they let/make you buy on taobao yourself so they don’t take a percentage of the goods purchased or rig the exchange rate. They charge a flat $US3 per incoming shipment plus ourgoing shipping.
