No matter where you are from, we all experienced the transformation of shopping behaviour from offline retail stores to online. Online shopping is a huge thing not only in the western world, but China has also become the leader in eCommerce.

However, as an expat, language can be a barrier to using apps like Taobao, JD and Pinduoduo.

Today I would like to share an amazing tool that helps you buy ANYTHING available on the Chinese marketplaces with the help of BAOPALS!

Baopals is a platform that connects Baopals customers with over 1 billion products from Taobao, Tmall and JD. When customers shop for products on Baopals, they're shopping from China's largest and most trusted online marketplaces, with over 50 departments/categories and a great team who curated products from the best sellers. They do everything they can to help customers to find the right products from the best sellers, with convenient payments, fast deliveries and friendly customer service.

On Baopals, you can easily find the best products in China at the lowest prices, all in English and tailored to non-Chinese shoppers' needs. Their service team handles any communication necessary with sellers and couriers to ensure you get what you want or your money back. The Baopals blog is also a great resource for discovering recommended products and sellers, and you can see what the Baopals community is loving through the Baopals Discover section.

Tips:

• If you’re searching and not getting results, try turning off the “translate search.”

• Check and clarify your choices, sometimes, items would have many options of sizes, volumes, and colours/ and sometimes the options you chose might be sold out.

• Escalate if it’s not shipped in a few days

Give it a try now. New users can get 50 RMB off from their first purchase of over 250 RMB. You can visit their website or download the app to give it a try. Happy Shopping :D
