This post is divided into two parts, feel free to share!
1. Finding what you like - Keywords guide
2. Shipping - Using Taobao SEA
Before proceeding with the tutorial,
create an account on Taobao first.
____________________
Part One: Finding what you like
Before you proceed with the search, THINK of what you want to buy first. It's kinda difficult to browse Taobao without having what you wanna buy in mind because there's just too many things on the site. After thinking, search for the item that you are looking for.
Basically searching items on Taobao is just a combination of
keywords. So to help everyone with lousy chinese, here's a number of keywords with their translations. Just copy and paste all the keywords into the search bar to find what you want!
Tip: Put in "韩版" for everything you buy to get something more trendy and not cheenaish.
The search terms are classified as follows:
(i) General
(ii) Styles
(iii) Materials
(iv) Tops
(v) Bottoms
(vi) Shoes
Good luck!
