Ways to be a China-free product and service purchaser.

Anyone wanna share on this?

i can think of ways of bypassing shopee.

Check out the seller if he has a website too to sell his product and then order from there instead of shopee. like that can prevent shopee from getting a cut from the sale.

IMO, this is the start of this movement you can't avoid products that is made in china totally. However we can avoid China products that are from China but not product made in China that is from foreign brands like Nike. slowly people will find ways to banned products made in china but that need the cooperation of foreign non-china companies.

Actually i already bought a wallet made in germany but logistic is through USA.. so the whole process is CHINA-FREE and i like that.

i like to support local sg sellers that sells on shopee so i would actually buy direct from them rather through shopee even if they use shopee platform.

Most brands have their own official online store which does not require the platform of Lazada or Shopee.

Lazada has been Tiong'ed too.

The only things you should be buying from China are: Chinese tea, Chinese herbs and Chinese chess. Maybe ping pong paddles, depending on the situation and your needs. And traditional Chinese handicraft (not factory-made).
