Best place to buy in Asia? [CLOSED]

Where do you think is the best place to buy in Asia? Tao Bao and Ali Baba (and other local sites) are loaded with fakes and overpriced legits, the best place so far seems to be the Japanese version of Amazon, which ships to most Asian locations for only about $3, and has fair prices, generally less than $10 more than in America. Are there any other good places in Asia to buy (yes, I have tried the Chinese Amazon, but they don't even have figures)? Just curious.

Currently China, and maybe Thailand. Singapore and Japan do have them I believe. Haven't been to Singapore in a while though (cheaper to got to Thailand).

Taobao is nice if you want factory rejects for customization, and if you want prototypes.

There are a few functioning figures on there, too.

I also recently snagged a Clear Stump Smash and a Prototype Slam Bam off of there.

Pics and/or link please? I'm a little skeptical, especially since you didn't mention this in the prototype thread.

REWARD: for valid information that leads to the addition of an ULTRA RARE 2011 E3 Gill Grunt in the E3 packaging.

I leave Taobao orders a secret until they confirm the order.

I'm aware tao bao has some reals, even some rares (red drill sergeant, which I already have, is on there, but over 800 yuan/qui). But they costs way too much, it might be cheaper to ship from america if it didn't take over a month for things to get here (and I don't trust the post office either). Tao Bao also has GITD Sonic Boom for 200-something yuan/qui, but so much cheaper at american walmart.
EDIT: Great Squire of Gothos! Oh my Oathkeeper! Tao Bao appears to have taken down most of their Skylanders, barely any reals are left. They even had darklight crypt for a time!

What do you mean by prototypes like new reposes or figures with characters that don't work?

I caught Xerneas in a regular pokeball, take that.
