Believe a not, I haven't bought from Taobao prior to this. I know, you might be thinking how is that possible? Especially when my family and friends are constantly talking about their latest buys from Taobao.
I remember asking a friend where she got her dress from and she went like, "Taobao!" My immediate reaction was, "What?! You mean Taobao has got something like that?" FYI, it was like an ASOS inspired dress. During Xuan & Ye's wedding, when I commented that the guestbook was really cute, Li Xuan's sister, Li Bing told me that its from Taobao. And the other day when I was over at Grandpa's, my cousin, Ebony was like, "Jie, let me show you my rainbow loom from Taobao." She was wearing a pair of shorts which appealed to me and guess what? Its from Taobao too! She even got my birthday present - a bluetooth enabled iOS and android compatible camera remote control from Taobao!
