Alibaba's Taobao and Tmall are running their major 618 sale from 18-20 June with pretty decent offers!

According to their homepage, you only need to pay for shipping (EDITED) CAPPED AT RMB19.90 (approx AUD$4.20) for shipping to Australia, via sea shipping. Some random finds:

American Tourister 20in Carry-On at ~$84 (was ~$208)
Fun Luggage to Keep your Kids Occupied at ~$50 (was $79)
Treadmill at ~$320 (was ~$836)
Bidet at ~$199 (was $501)
Living Room Rug 71cm x 141cm at ~$31 (was ~$61)

Non-Chinese speakers may need a whole load of Google Translate.

    Its one of the larger chinese public holidays.
    Officially called: 端午节 (Duan Wu Jie) or in english: Dragon Boat Festival

    Other names colloquial names that it goes by would be "Zhong Jie", which is named after a traditional food "Zhong" which is consumed during this time. Zhong is made up of banana leaves with rice inside them. It may contain other things such as meats.

    Apparently it's the birthday of JD.com.
    Also it happens to be the anniversary of the ascension of Li Yuan to Emperor Gaozu of Tang in the year 618, initiating three centuries of Tang dynasty rule over China.

  Where does it say anything about fixed rate shipping? Can't seem to find it…

    I don't believe it is a fixed shipping, I believe the OP is wrong. The webpage when you attempt to buy an item implies it gets sent to Australia but it doesn't mean that.

    Taobao / Tmall works like this:
    1. Items sent to a "package forwarding / distribution center"
    2. You get to consolidate your packages (basically they throw all of it into a box / bag and send it, they do not remove packaging!)
    3. Their courier is 4PX, you can either send it to one of their local parcel points or send it directly to your home.
    It is faster to send to a parcel point and slightly cheaper than sending it to your home.

    Your shipping from China to Melbourne will be charged by 4PX and this is calculated on weight.
    Annoying thing is, you cannot calculate the onwards shipping from China to Australia before buying an item. They only give you a price once the item arrives at their distribution center after they weigh the package and give you a exact weight.

      My understanding is, you're right about the 4PX guys. However, the shipping fee should be CAPPED at RMB19.90 according to their T&Cs here: https://ts.tmall.com/wow/signature/act/ausqgl?spm=a211ko.113…

      Just take note that it is for sea shipping only! Chinese pros welcome to jump in here :)

  My feedback from this sale… I tried to buy a couple of wardrobe (marked as in stock) hoping to take advantage of the capped shipping. For unknown reasons, it didn't allow me to purchase them. When I tried to buy small like a USB hub… It went through ok. My friend tried on his account and same thing happened.

  So much for capped shipping. Dodgy as.
