Q: Shipping Amazon products to China
For ordering things from Amazon, how to enter the Chinese address for shipping? I need to order from the American site, not the Chinese one. The news says they started shipping to China right?
Tell you what I did. I wrote , when placing the order my address in English. After, I contacted the vendor privately (using contact vendor button) and send him the address in Mandarin. Took about 3 weeks for goods to arrive.
When contacted vendor, I explained the difficulty of using address in English for delivery
But be aware, not all goods in Amazon are shippable to China

Thanks, I did that but it seems the product cannot be shipped to China. Sadness.

Some things are such a better deal in the west that it might just be worth it to wait until your next visit home.
For example when a computer I wanted was discontinued and available cheap on clearance I just had a couple sent to my mom's house and packed them up in an extra suitcase. Extra bag fee on an airplane still WAY less than shipping something here.
And the price difference for buying them here came to almost $400.
So if you can be a little patient just hold on a bit and pick them up later.
