For hockey fans and collectors, a Mario Lemieux hockey jersey is a prized possession. However, finding authentic Penguins jerseys outside of North America can be challenging. Fortunately, sourcing them from Taobao—China’s largest e-commerce platform—is an excellent solution, especially when using a shopping agent like Sugargoo. This guide will walk you through the process.
Sugargoo is a Chinese reverse purchasing platform specializing in global purchases from Taobao and other Chinese retailers. Their services include:
Compared to other agents, Sugargoo stands out for its low service fees
Since replicas are common, verifying seller credibility is crucial. One useful resource is this product spreadsheet, which lists trusted sellers of NHL jerseys.
Pro Tip: Always check store ratings (look for 4.8+/5 stars) and recent customer reviews.
Open the jersey listing on Taobao and grab the URL. Taobao listings usually feature detailed specs—compare these with official NHL jersey details to spot counterfeits.
Sign up at Sugargoo's website—no invitation code is required. For first-time users, deposit enough funds (¥100–500) via PayPal or Western Union.
Navigate to "Order for Me"
Pro Tip: If in doubt about sizing, ask Sugargoo’s staff to confirm measurements by referencing the size chart in this spreadsheet.
Sellers typically ship domestic orders in 3–5 days. Sugargoo will notify you when they receive the jersey at their warehouse and will provide QC photos—inspect these carefully before approving international shipment.
Sugargoo offers multiple carriers like DHL, EMS, and SAL—pick based on budget and speed.
Note: Some countries impose customs taxes on imported sports apparel costing over $100—pre-check local regulations.
For bulk buyers (5+ jerseys), contact Sugargoo’s VIP service to negotiate bulk shipping rates—they’ve helped others cut ~15% off standard fees.
And remember: Always screenshot Taobao seller promises (e.g., "official CCM/NHL branding") as evidence before Sugargoo forwards packages.
Side Note: Interviews show fans in Australia and the UK overwhelmingly favor Sugargoo over Bhiner if purchasing involves multi-platform items.
