My first haul ever directly from Taobao. 3 Hollow Knight figures, a tiny anime cat girl figure, one 20cm gunfu figure with a futuristic P90 and a frieren being eaten by a mimic figure, + one 20cm Marcille figure still on the way. All of this, including the shipping, set me back less than $30. I think it was all around $26 with the shipping. I was really worried I'd get scammed or that they would send something completely different, but so far Taobao has exceeded my expectations. Vetting the sellers and only buying items with real photos in the reviews helped, I guess. Overall, I'd say it's much better than Ali, and it has much lower prices. Shipping is a little faster too. I don't think I'm going to go back to Alishit and their overinflated gaijin prices after this, bros. I'm paying like a real Chinaman from here on out.
