Both of us ππ»ββοΈπ¨βπ» concur that our TOP reno regret has got to be shipping our Taobao stuff over to our home way too early! π¦π They were all shipped over as there were items we needed for reno like our kitchen sink, fan, dining lights. Even though we actually needed just those few items, we shipped ALL items to have savings in the shipment cost. π³οΈπΈ
It seemed like a good idea at the time, but it turned into a space nightmare during the renovation process. π©
We thought we were being proactive by ordering all those amazing Taobao finds ahead of time cos we really got super good deals during 11.11 π°π°π°!! but little did we know that it would occupy our two common rooms for what felt like an eternity. π°οΈπ« Thankfully, we didnβt have major reno works done in our common rooms. But still, it was really obstructive and hindered the reno process - such as during painting works, and the cleaning process.
On hindsight, we should have waited until the renovations were closer to completion before having all those packages shipped. Lesson learnt! π
2 major lessons weβve learnt about Taobao shipment during Reno -
1οΈβ£ Ensure your Taobao 3pf (third party forwarder) allows you to hold your shipments for a long time in their warehouse!!
our 3pf (that we wonβt recommend) didnβt allow us to store our shipment for a longer time hence we had to deliver it to our home.
2οΈβ£ Stagger shipment of Taobao items (Urgent vs Not-urgent)
we actually only needed 1-2 items during the reno period - our kitchen sink & dining lights. The rest of the items could have been installed or delivered WAY LATER! So we should have split the shipment to an β οΈurgent batch and a β³non-urgent batch.
Hope our lessons learnt will be useful for anyone whoβs considering Taobao-ing for your Reno and items!! πͺπ»πͺπ»πͺπ» Hope nobody will walk this same path as us π π π€£π€£
