Buying satin/silk stuffs

[thisisme]

Guys I just wonder. Anyone here understand Mandarin/Chinese? If yes, why not buy from Taobao? It's a China-based website selling tons of satin/silk stuffs all the way from Korea, Taiwan, Japan and China themselves. You guys should try it.

I believe they only sell small size clothes for Asian.

I do, but satin coming from China varies quite widely in quality, and you never know what you're going to get, while you can usually find something cheaper on eBay.

Two reasons :

Quality ranges as mentioned above, and shipping is either too expensive or takes entirely too long.
