I recently returned from Amoy (Xiamen), which was almost a year and a half away. Being close to Hong Kong, I used to buy electronics mainly from the US. Many people thought that the Hong Kong version was cheaper, but actually, the US has the lowest prices globally. Hong Kong is just a tax-free port for transshipment. So, why are so many people chasing the "Haitao" (sea shopping)? It’s all about finding the best deals. But how do you find the cheapest options? Wait for others’ news or go your own way and let others envy you?
Haitao basics: everyone knows them, no need to explain too much. For newcomers, it's important to understand the process: website translation, credit card usage, time zones, shipping, and customs taxes. There are also ways to shorten delivery times.
There are various types of sea shopping, and you have to be careful to choose what suits your needs. For example, Japan is great for diapers and cups, while Meiya is good for electronics. Australia and Germany are popular for milk powder. The US and Asia have huge reputations, similar to JD.com, with high credit and good after-sales service. They support UnionPay and don’t charge extra for transfers. Everyone likes them, but they’re not cheap!
I personally recommend eBay. It's like the US version of Taobao. You can find big sellers (with over 1,000 reviews, 95–100% positive) who often have a gold medal logo, or small sellers (with tens to hundreds of reviews). Be cautious with new sellers with zero reviews—they might be scammers. For example, if someone sells 5,000 iPhones, you should use common sense. Old sellers with years of experience are usually more trustworthy.
When searching on eBay, it's recommended to first fill in a US forwarding address. Dollars are more intuitive. On eBay, there are three types of shopping: “Buy It Now,†auctions, and offers. “Buy It Now†is the most straightforward. Auctions can be tricky because the final price isn’t always clear. Don't be fooled by a $100 iPhone X on auction—it could still end at a higher price.
For electronic products on eBay, there are detailed filters on the left side of the search results. The most desirable is “New,†followed by “New Other†(like new but without original packaging), “Manufacturer Refurbished†(officially refurbished), “Seller Refurbished†(reconditioned by the seller), and “Used.†In the US, even used items are often in good condition. In Amoy, second-hand goods are reasonably priced, but sometimes the official open-box versions aren’t exactly as described. I once bought a refurbished iPad Pro, and had to pay $150 for repairs due to a plug issue. After ten days, I got a full refund and even earned $3800. That’s how real deals work.
Since the goal is to save money, I often go for the “new box†or “refurbished†options. For example, when Zhang Da Ma announced the Dyson V8 vacuum cleaner, the new one was $450, while the eBay “new box†version was only $325, and the official version was $350. This helped me save 20-25%.
Some sellers offer “Make Offer†options. If the deal isn’t too aggressive, the chances of success are pretty good. If you're unsure, don’t rush. eBay strictly protects both parties. Once you agree on a price, it becomes a binding agreement. Unpaid orders can lead to being blacklisted, so it's better to follow the rules.
If you have questions on eBay, communicate with the seller as much as possible. They usually respond quickly, even at midnight. Bargaining isn’t shameful; just be polite and use simple phrases. Americans are used to this kind of negotiation.
Payment is handled through PayPal, similar to Alipay on Taobao. It supports UnionPay, Visa, and MasterCard. Make sure to set the currency to USD before checkout, otherwise, you may be charged extra for RMB conversion.
Before communicating with US sellers, it’s best to change your location settings to the US. Otherwise, they might say they don’t ship to China or refuse to trade with you. While eBay rarely blocks shipments, sellers have the right to cancel orders if they don’t want to sell to you.
Finally, I’m exhausted. I didn’t write everything, but I hope this gives you a clear idea. Please give me more feedback, and I’ll follow up with more tips soon.
In the last half-year, Jingdong sold over 1,200 Marvel voice robots, starting at 350 units.
These robots are very attractive in design and eye-catching. Their language recognition is quite strong, otherwise, their massive database wouldn’t hold up. Overall, they are very cost-effective, solid in performance, and made of materials similar to silicone with no odor.
Sony WH-1000XM3, originally $840 in the US, dropped to $1,499 during Double 11, but that didn’t affect me at all. Who cares?
The noise cancellation is simply amazing. No longer afraid of loud noises, life is much more comfortable. Battery life is over 7 hours, and gesture control is very convenient. The only downside is Bluetooth connection—only one device can connect at a time, and reconnecting is a hassle. Still, it greatly improves the quality of life.
I bought a 16GB iPad mini 2 on eBay for $560. It had a minor issue, so I applied for compensation and got a full refund. The battery cycle was only 10 times, but it runs smoothly on iOS 9. Highly recommended.
The iPad mini 2 isn’t much to talk about, but it works perfectly for everyday use.
