SuperbuyHpoi taobao review MyFigureCollection.net

Hello MFC community!
I recently bought for the first time a figure on Taobao and I'd like to share my experience!
sorry for the bad pics, I was super excited to open her up and just shoot a quick video!

The figure I wanted to buy is from a chinese manifacturer and since I wasn't able to find her ANYWHERE, even secondhand, I thought to take a chance and browse Taobao a little.

So, there she was! I finally found Lilywine <3

Buying her from Superbuy was pretty easy, just made my account and sent the payment.
I had to wait for her to reach the warehouse for only 4 days, meanwhile I decided to get few more things.
Once I had my stuff ready to ship I used EMS (super expensive, but still the cheapest avialable for that moment, now SAL is avialable again) and after 22 days my package arrived.

corgi for dimensions comparison! XD

Since it was the first time using Superbuy, I paid for the extra foam protection, but it was not really necessary because I asked to keep the original box for the figure. I wasn't sure about what "box" they were referring to!

Anyway! all the goods were in excellent condition, the smallest things were in the Hpoi box, which made me scared for a minute they forgot about them, and the playmat was in an additional plastic bag.

Overall Superbuy service was great, I decided to preorder few more chinese figures with them, especially the ones with preorder bonus XD

Here is my complete haul

I know it's not a very detailed review, I found a bit difficult to express myself in english TT__TT but I'm happy to answer all your questions!

Important tips I'd like to give:
-before buying from Taobao, check the seller reputation, good shops have jewels, or even better crowns, next to their name, the more the better.
Always check if the listing has a review with picture, if the item is a preorder, go check already released figures listed!
Taobao has a lot of bootleg, if not sure, check the item page here on MFC to see if bootlegs exist for that figure!
-Price can be high if the manifacturer is japanese, but for chinese figures it really worth to check!

Here are few Taobao trustworthy shops
