Even with shipping in TaoBao? Never try them before. Most stuffs in Aliexpress included shipping to U.S. in their prices. Post some pic & links please.

My wife's relatives are visiting from China so I have it shipped to them and brought to me. I'll post pics and links in a month or so time when I find time to put them on.

I made my first order for the RX from Taobao.com but it's a bit complicate for oversea shipping. First you pay for the stuff & local shipping to some central logistics warehouse in China. (I did order $52 worth + $1+ local shipping (dirt cheap, they must have paid the postman minimum wage in China!). When the package arrives at the warehouse, I will have to pay for US shipping via USPS (some $12 for the 1st kg +..) So it seems like it will still be cheaper than Aliexpress. The vendors in Aliexpress must be doubling the price to account for oversea shipping cost.

2 payment process in Taobao...estimated cost $53.2 + $12 shipping?
single payment in Aliexpress but the cost is almost $100 for the same stuff.

Thanks for the infos, Eric

Looks like a good mod to have for $34 plus shipping.

Like that trunk liner. Bet it also cuts down on some noise from the trunk area. Looks great!

Alibaba is a $477 billion company slightly smaller than Amazon's $512 billion co. Their biggest 11/11 (single day sales globally ever) was over $25 billion yesterday, bigger than black Friday & cyber Monday combined. To put it into prospective, Macy's annual revenue is about $25 billions for 2017.

Yes, I'm aware of Alibaba but this one's AliExpress. Did some more research and it's actually another division of alibaba.

I have been talking to the manufacturer of the Android interface and he has provided all the information but I'm still a little hesitant.
If anyone else is interested I can share all the information I have.

Thanks.

Unfortunately no. You have to use Aliexpress.com if you can't read Chinese and the price is like 2 or 3 times more but included shipping. Taoboa.com, tmall.com and aliexpress.com are all owned by Aliexpress.
