I thought Lazada is just a shinier more prestigious version of alibaba selling chink crap,but narrower selection and more mainstream products and more expensive.a amazon still the best of course if they bother to deliver to sg.
Think about it. Who did I make the order with? Lazada of course.
I do not know who all their service providers are & don't care. If I have any issues with an order than it should be taken care of by the company I did business with i.e. Lazada.
For example if you buy a flat from HDB & find problems with it, who would you complain to? The trouble in Spore is that once a company has your $$$, they will ignore you.
got your point

I used to buy from Q0010 but closed my account after recent bad experience . I did not receive my item (normal mail ) but was refused a refund after a long exchange of emails with the seller and Q0010 admin. I was told to check with Singpost regarding the missing parcel.
Made my first purchase from Lazada on 11 Nov and received the item on 15 Nov. Made another purchase on 26 Nov and received item on 29 Nov. Both deliveries were made by NinjaVan, fuss free and efficient.
Between the two, it's Lazada for me.
Lazada and q0010 will not survive when Amazon starts to operate in singapore.
What kind of LJ name is Lazada and q0010?
I thought I had cancelled the order but I guess Taqbin don't read their emails from Lazada or maybe they did receive the cancellation notice & finally decided to send the thing to me Sometimes you have to bang some tables to get action What surprised me is that they have people working on Sundays
Lucky thing I was at home to receive the delivery. I was actually planning to go to Sim Lim in the afternoon to talk to Video Pro about buying the ATX case from them. I thought delivery companies don't work on Sundays & it was safe to leave home. The problem with buying online is that you have to be at home to receive the items.
Buying online is here to stay & should be painless. Unless of course something goes wrong
Hmm.. Having an online purchasing issue is actually quite a small issue. Are you that worried????
Actually depends on the type of person you are. I like to avoid unecessary problems if possible.
All week I couldn't leave home without worrying about missing the delivery man. Wouldn't be a problem if it was a delivery from Amazon because they do re-deliveries but local companies can give you plenty of headaches if you aren't at home.
The problem is with the unpredictable behaviour of the local delivery person. If you aren't at home to receive a package they can leave the package at your door step, hide it behind potted plants,...etc. It would help if companies had a proper procedure e.g. SMS prior to delievry to give you advance warning, or make the deliveries at night,...

they will just leave costly items outside the house ? $10 item ok but not $100 item. if it is registered mail, someone is supposed to sign for it, no ?
so you can assemble the pc now ?
Next time assign a shop to accept yr parcel, eg police station. Police very free one lot of eat snakes.
Can deliver to yr office. many are doing just that.
I would probably have gotten my parcel earlier like 2 days after putting in my order if I had done a self collection from one of those locker boxes thingees you find at post offices & 7-11.
The reason I ordered the ATX case online is because it included delivery to my home. No way I could have gotten the big sucker home without a lot of effort because it's big & heavy.
Is it a full tower or a half tower?
Do you play video games or install a lot of HDDS inside?
The reason why i am asking is cos the gfx cards used for high end gaming are larger in size and require half tower/tower sized casings to put in and also if you attach alot of pci e devices/sata devices like internal hdds then you require either an ATX sized mobo or a larger one if you don't need them like just 1 HDD with no raid function then an mATX mobo is required and you can use a smaller sized gfx card which doesn't require a half tower casing.

Maybe you should only purchase from an online stores which they had a delivery systems that fit you conveniences.
nobody mentioned aliexpress? it is my go-to online e-commerce platform after ebay and taobao. I use it for items not sold by lazada or qoo10.
even if said item is sold by lazada or qoo10, but made in China, i will turn to aliexpress or taobao. you will save more at the expense of longer shipping times.
aliexpress, taobao and ebay has all the buyer protection and refund guarantees that you need.
