Taobao Shipping to Philippines Explained

Taobao, 淘宝, means “seeking treasure” when translated. True enough, there are lots of hard to find items on the platform. From niche brands, to trendy and unique small appliances, to minimalist home decor items and many more! It is literally “your everything store”! Search what you want to buy and you’ll be surprised that Taobao has it!
One of the reasons why some Philippine sellers prefer to buy from Taobao instead of Alibaba is due to Taobao’s unique offers, plenty of the items in Taobao can’t be found in Alibaba. Since some of these are customized, or produced in low quantities unlike Alibaba where majority of the goods are mass produced.

2. Buying from Taobao

Just like how we browse over different categories in our accustomed ecommerce apps like Shopee and Lazada. Taobao also offers numerous categories and it’s honestly more comprehensive than what is being offered in Shopee and Lazada.

SHOPPING VIA CATEGORY

To browse for categories click the “3 lined button” then you will be navigated to all the categories Taobao has to offer.


So here are the main categories of Taobao, if you are not sure what to buy yet, you may browse through each one of them to have a more concrete idea of what you want to buy. It has home items, imported goods, fashion, accessories, workout outfits, etc.

SHOPPING VIA KEYWORD SEARCH

Just like how we normally shop on Shopee and Lazada, you type the goods you wish tobuy and scroll down for the available designs. Products differ in quality, price, designs, so you should carefully review the feedback of previous customers from the shop, and you should also check Taobao sellers overall shop performance. Or type some keywords then let the algorithm help you out! Google translate is your best friend here, you have to google multiple times for more accurate keywords or you can also login in the desktop version of Taobao so that language can be automatically translated to English so you can easily shop and navigate through the app.


Here are some common keywords to help you out.

FASHION
Chinese  English
韩风连衣裙     Korean Style Dress    
外套 Sweater, Jacket
T恤 Tshirt
牛仔裤 Denim Pants
吊带裙 Spaghetti Dress
HOME
Chinese English

厨房用品 Kitchen essentials
生活用品 General merchandise
Ins风家居     Instagrammable home decor  

**Tip: Anything with “INS” at the front means “instagrammable” so if you want to let’ssay search for instagrammable lady clothes. Then you can directly search “INS 女装”.Try it out and you’ll be surprised by the beautiful selections!

 

SHOPPING VIA PICTURE SEARCH

 

 

When you know what the product you want to buy looks like, or you have spent days looking up in Pinterest on the peg of bedroom renovation you want. But you are not quite sure how to describe that specific item? Well, worry no more because in Taobao there's a picture search function where you can directly upload the product that you want to buy and the system would automatically look up the similar looking products, or same vibesas you want to purchase. So convenient isn’t it? I honestly love this function a lot since, most of the time, I am not quite sure how to describe the specific product that I want to purchase.

Go to pinterest and download a specific bedroom style peg you want. Below is the picture I got from pinterest:

Then click the “camera” button on the right

After entering the “camera” button it will then navigate you to the picture below wherein you can either take a photo of the good that you want to buy or browse your gallery and upload the the picture you’ve saved before.
