Buying a motorcycle and traveling China on a temporary visa

[bikerdoc]

Buying from Taobao would be possible for non-Chinese language users/buyers and those located outside of Ch!na, if using an agent (there are quite a few agents that deal with Taobao sellers) such as Taobaofocus. Such agents act as an intermediary and deal with the communication, purchasing and dispatch etc. for a fee. It's probably not the same as dealing with a Taobao seller directly and there's likely to be issues around warranty and exchange due to the time involved with sending and receiving items etc. however it can work. Keeping in mind though that not all items advertised on Taobao or many other sites inside Ch!na are as advertised or even available or exist, so an agent may have to find an alternative seller of a particular item etc.
YMMV
