The first thing to remember when shopping in Taobao is that there is a limit to "being greedy and cheap". Do you dare to buy a man's Armani suit? If you buy it, it means that you have accepted the fact of buying inferior goods.
Furthermore, online shopping is based on real life and online information. Without real life, online shopping is like a castle in the air, which is irrelevant at all. Just like you are going to buy a Pearl of the Dragon King in the East China Sea in Taobao, you can't tell the truth when someone gives you a dumpling, but it will be moldy after three to five days. Is it still useful to scold profiteers at that time?
I have been shopping in Taobao for more than two years, and I have been cheated and bought fakes, but in summary, it is the above two reasons. Moreover, after buying the fake goods, I provided sufficient evidence to Taobao customer service (including, for example, the dialogue record of the seller's promise to return the goods for no reason within seven days, etc. ) to ask for a refund, and all of them are supported by Taobao. The refund is very smooth, unlike what you said.
Generally speaking, I bought things on Taobao and paid some tuition fees, but it brought great convenience to my life and saved a considerable amount of money.
