Yongnuo YN560-III Speedlite
Trying out the Yongnuo YN560-III Manual Speedlite from taobao. The speedlite cost 343 CNY (SGD 79.43 = SGD 74.33 + SGD 5.10 4PX forwarding fee). The box contains a YN560-III Flash Unit, Padded Case, Mini Base Stand and an Instruction Manual. No flash diffuser is included inside the package, however mine was given to me free by the taobao seller.
Yongnuo RF-603N
Testing out the 151 CNY (SGD 37.82 = SGD 32.72 + SGD 5.10 4PX forwarding fee) Yongnuo RF-603N1 which I purchased from Taobao via sea.taobao.com and freight forwarding using 4PX.
Trying out Taobao Southeast Asia
With Taobao Southeast Asia (sea.taobao.com) launched with forwarding agents delivering to Singapore and Malaysia, I’ve decided to give it a try since I have no problem reading Chinese.
The site provided a comprehensive guide on how to register your address with the forwarding agent. Signing up with Alipay.com to pay with my VISA/MasterCard is also a breeze since the sign-up is linked with the membership registration.
After signing up for the member on sea.taobao.com and choosing 4PX as my forwarding agent back to Singapore. I can now proceed with the real shopping!
Having always wanted to try working with remote flash triggers and a secondary flash, hence decided to place order for the Yongnuo YN560-III Speedlite and the Yongnuo RF-603 N1 wireless transceivers.
The cost of the Yongnuo YN560-III cost 343 CNY inclusive of 10 CNY delivery cost (SGD 74.33). The Yongnuo RF-603N1 cost 151 CNY inclusive of 8 CNY delivery cost (SGD 32.72).
