Taobao is China’s Amazon. You can buy everything from groceries to electronics, and even hire someone to argue for you.
With the holiday season upon us, we went searching for the best Taobao gifts under $30. In this episode, we looked for fun presents for our family and friends.
(Taobao is a product of Alibaba, which owns the South China Morning Post, the parent company of Goldthread.)
