Yesterday I placed my fourth order on Taobaotrends. I received an email confirmation of my order today, and I submitted my first payment. My order is now being processed. I now enter the phase where the agent orders my parts, and I await for them to be delivered to my agent.

taobaotrends

I tried placing an order through taobaotrends but no matter what I select I get a pop-up window "Not Find Item" ...... I'm cutting and pasting the URL directly from Taobao to taobaotrends. Not sure what I"m doing wrong. I got the email from them telling them my account was up and ready so I dont think it can be that.

You're welcome. If you place an order at Taobao, I suggest you get the updated, split, left side covers which facilitate accessing the air filter element.

The process is not very difficult at all. As with most things, it takes a little work to learn the system, but the effort is well worth it. After you complete your first order, you will an expert.

Must be nice to have a decent keyword to find pertinent items for your bike at Taobao.

I've tried lots of search words for mine and related bikes. Not so easy...

Cheers!

Indeed, the search terms make all the difference. For my Zongshen Sierra 200, I use the following search terms.

ZS200GY-2
LZX200GY-2

For my Zongshen RX3, I employ the following search terms.

ZS250GY-3
Zongshen RX3
