I came across this blog Taiwan @ Singapore who claims to be a Taiwan Company who helps to do pre-orders.

	Quote:
	Taiwan Represent Taiwan Company which combined of many sprees of taiwan Our sprees will always be open! Specially for GIRLS in Singapore Blogshop owners are welcome

As I scroll down I realised his charges are very "affordable"

	Quote:
	Purchasing 15 items & above for each spree: ♥ Total $ for each item = (item price / 20) + handling fee ($1.50) + initial shipping fee ♥ Shipping fees: it includes [(transport fees to airport) + (air transport fees to singapore)] - For bags: $4/- - For apparels: $3/- - For accessorizes: $3/- - For shoes: $5/- (It depend on its weight too) ♥ NO ADDITIONAL PAYMENT Purchasing 15 items & below for each spree: ♥ Total $ for each item = (item price x 0.06) + handling fee ($1.50)initial shipping fee ($5 per item) ♥ MIGHT HAVE ADDITIONAL CHARGE but mostly don't have. BUT BOTH PRICES ARE STILL VERY CHEAP! It includes capping too!

So I went to tag on his tagboard and ask about the 0.06 and NTD16 last night.

And this morning he went to edit his charges to

	Quote:
	Total no. of items: Total amount in TWD: Total amount in SGD: [ (Total amt in TWD) / 20 ]+ [(no. of items) x $1.50] + [(no. of items) x (Shipping fee)]

P.s: This person obviously forgotten to wipe his backside. He forgot to change the rules and went to change the How to order part.

Scam or not, you decide!

Oh and before I forget, there is a quote at his bottom of the tagboard.

	Quote:
	Everyone alert here! My company have given me 2 options to change but the majority of you guys will decide. 1st option: - Me, as the representative, will be as a blogshop owner: => So the price$ will be higher. => It will not be the price rate now. 2nd option: - All price$ remain the same.

Please spread the words because I email-ed a girl from his tagboard and true enough, they were only 14 years old. And imagine they gave the money to this person and the girls would be held responsible when he or she runs away.

And he kept deleting my tags. Which makes the whole thing EVEN more suspicious.

Haha, now that you've said it. Maybe it is a scam.

I'm a blogshop owner myself. I've went to this blog and tag. I realize his exchange rates were (price in NT x 0.06) higher than the normal blogshops. So i adviced him that it was kind of high as there are many other blogshop with lower rates.

And i'm not the only one who suggested that he lower his rate to 0.055 or 0.05. But he simply refused and came up with the crap that it's his company who comes up with it.

I don't think he even left his company name/contact number or ANYTHING there. Just don't get anything from there.

Anyway his blog counter only have less than 500 people viewing so far. Heck care la, some people also very naive de.

**bebelicious** · 06-09-2008, 05:08 PM

He claims that his company set the exchange rate but then I think it's a ridiculous excuse.

He spoils the fun of online shopping!

Really hope no one will believe him.
