If you're a fan of FC Barcelona's basketball team and want to purchase their official jersey, this guide will walk you through the process of buying from Tmall (China's largest B2C platform) using Superbuy, a popular Chinese shopping proxy service.
What is Superbuy?
Superbuy is a professional shopping agent that helps international customers purchase products from Chinese e-commerce platforms like Tmall, Taobao, JD.com, and others. They handle payment, quality inspection, international shipping, and even offer package consolidation services.
Why Use Superbuy Instead of Buying Directly?
- Many Chinese stores don't accept international payment methods or ship abroad
- Superbuy provides English interface for easier shopping
- Quality inspection service can verify your product before shipping
- Package consolidation saves shipping costs
- Customer service helps with language barriers and returns
