My Ultimate Guide to Saving Money on Air Max Pre-Day Purchases from Europe Using Yoybuy

As someone who loves sneakers, especially the Air Max Pre-Day, I’ve spent countless hours figuring out how to get the best deals from Taobao using Yoybuy, a popular proxy shopping platform. Here’s my step-by-step guide to lowering shipping costs and avoiding tariffs, all while ensuring your purchase is as smooth as possible.

Step 1: Finding the Best Deals on Taobao

First, I scour Taobao for the best deals on Air Max Pre-Day. To make this easier, I use a Taobao spreadsheet shared within the spreadsheet Discord community. This spreadsheet is a goldmine for finding discounts and coupons.

Step 2: Using Yoybuy to Proxy Purchase

Once I’ve found my desired pair, I use Yoybuy to make the purchase. Yoybuy acts as a middleman, buying the product from Taobao and shipping it to me in Europe. To save on shipping, I always wait until I have multiple items to ship together, significantly reducing the per-item cost.

Step 3: Avoiding Tariffs

To avoid hefty tariffs, I ask Yoybuy to declare a lower value for the package. Additionally, choosing standard shipping over express can sometimes help in avoiding customs scrutiny.

Step 4: Tracking and Receiving My Package

Yoybuy provides a tracking number, so I can monitor my package’s journey. Upon arrival, I’m always thrilled to add a new pair of Air Max Pre-Day to my collection, all while having saved a considerable amount of money.
