Shopping on Lazada, I’m going crazy!

Haha, lately I’m not acting like myself. My mood can be very sensitive and it’s unpredictable. I rarely cry at night when I want to sleep but now it’s almost every day. Why you ask? Hmm… it’s a SECRET! Haha… no, seriously, my mood feels a bit different than usual. Don’t ask why.

NEXT!!!!

Hhahahahahaha… okay, it’s enough.

Actually, that’s not the point. It’s like an introduction. I want to share my first experience shopping on Lazada. (Yes… yes… I am way behind from all of you. I always like that.) Don’t judge… Haha… Just kidding. Please judge if you want to. Actually, I don’t care…

Until I write this post, I already placed an order on Lazada 2 times. First on 3^rd December 2016 and second on 30^th December 2016.

Let me share how it’s work (based on my experience).

3 December 2016

I ordered 2 items from different seller.

1 – Harry Potter and the Cursed Child – Parts I & II: The Official Script Book of the Original West End Production

Price: RM75.60 (free postage) – Note: Now I see it again, the latest price is RM107.91! (as on 17 January 2017) Lucky me… haha…

Standard shipment: Get by 6-8 December. (I got the book on 7 December)

2 – Metal Rotary USB flash drive 2TB plate USB flash pen drive stick USB 2.0 Disk free shipping.

Price: RM53.90 (free postage)

Standard shipment: Get by 12-19 December.

It costs me RM129.50. For me, it’s a BIG amount to start shopping online for the first time. Yes! I take that risk! :p

I got a surprise! You know, my birthday is on 7^th December and maybe it’s my lucky day, I got my Harry Potter book on my birthday! Well, I can pretend that it’s my birthday gift to myself. Haha… Happy birthday to ME! Lol..

WAIT! It looks like a happy ending, right? Actually, let me tell you the truth. It’s fine and perfect for my Harry Potter book. It’s great! But, the one I want to complain is the other item I bought, 2tb USB flash drive.

It’s claimed to be 2TB when actually it’s not. I am missing my document when I transferred it. I lost my precious document forever! I will never get it back. Huh… (Oh, and also, I look up at the store again and guess what I got? Here :

Okay… there… there… let’s not ruining our mood. It’ not that I complain Lazada is not good. Lazada is perfect! Just maybe it’s one of my ‘not-so-lucky’ days. It teaches me to be careful when I purchase something. Not everyone is honest with you.

My second purchase is on 30 December 2016.

I bought:

1 – Toshiba Canvio Ready  1TB USB 3.0 External Hard Disk (Black) – with 3 years local manufacturer warranty.

Price: RM237

Standard Shipment: Get by 4 – 7 January 2017.

2 – [Import] Original Samsung Micro USB Data Sync & Charge Cable for Galaxy S4 (Black)

Price: RM19.90 (Shipping fee: RM5)

Standard shipment: Get by 3 – 6 January 2017

3 – 2.5 Inch Universal Hard Drive Disk USB Cable Carry Case Cover Bag Pouch with Flower Pattern for PC Tablet Black

Price: RM22.80

Okay, my second purchase is totally successful. It’s satisfying. I got the right items that functioning really well.

Let me tell you the 2 trick to buy anything online. (You can apply it on any shopping website in the world, trust me friends ;)

First: Look at the review.

Well, maybe review can be fake sometimes but if it’s more than 10 reviews? Let’s have a little faith to the seller.

Second: Is the price worth the item you buy?

Okay, this is their trick on you. Of course we, the buyer want to buy the cheaper one. Who wants to miss some discount right? But, please think about it again. 1TB USB Flash Drive that the average price is about RM200++ and suddenly being sold just RM50++? Think twice before you decide to buy it. It’s too cheap and most likely to be a fake one. (I admit I too dumb ‘clever’ to realize that matter)

Okay, let’s moving on. That is the past. Let’s not remember it again T_T

At least, I learned a lot about buying something online. What about your experience? Tell me about it. I would love to hear your story. ;)
