I’m trying out taobao agent service superbuy’s app.
One IEM triggered my interest and after looking at intl MRSP $299 vs Seller’s origibal Taobao $135. I felt I’d give a proxy agent service a try.
For others interested in directly buying taobao Items:
Here is the steps
1: download superbuy app or sign up at superbuy.com | this is package proxy service
2: paste your desired goods taobao url in that superbuy app
3: process payment ; they accept paypal, paypal works as great security gateway so that you don’t need to disclose your creditcard info, also a fraud protection program of paypal works as a risk mitigator.
Note: you will have to pay twice: product purchase payment as 1st, and shipping payment to the proxy agent as 2nd. 2nd payment is very small, 20CNY =3.5USD. But don’t forget to pay the shipping payment or your purchase will be cancelled. Details in below.
shipping process chart
some check lists (I slected expedite processing since it didn't charge much fee)
Final screen
Noob TRAP!!: You need to pay twice! 1st payment is the mainbody payment 99% of the cost goes on first payment, then goto Order Screen, on bottom right there is “pay now” button, that’s rest of 1% of shipper’s comission (20CNY = 4USD).
You will receive an email titled “outstanding balance” with
Your item XXXXXX has an outstanding shipping payment to be made. Please pay accordingly within 72 hours, or the order will be canceled automatically.
so click on that link and it will re-direct you to pay this shipper’s fee. What a noob trap.
The IEM I ordered is Audio Hekili
I noticed it’s 64 family tuning and saw some loves it, so I wanted give it a try. The 10khz+ looks pretty energized
I will update if this proxy service actually works or not.
Oops! I think I actually ordered Lokahi instead of Hekili, anyway They look pretty similar in tuning family.
64 audio’s IEM didn’t hit 8khz coupler’s resonance peak due to the open BA structure meanwhile Those Audio Lokahi /Hekili hit the peak, other than than the tuning seemed pretty much followed the philosophy of neutrality
Those will sound very bad man. I once got my hands on to an IE900, it was looking like a dupe and was sounding so sharp and messy. The bass was also boomy and muddy, later got to know that it was a fake.
