Review: Althea Korea Haul

00:22

Today is another experience about online shopping! I just received my parcel from Althea today and I cant wait to share the experience of purchase from Althea. I have purchased quite a few times from Althea ever since I first discovered it back in September. Althea is basically an online korean beauty shopping website which offer quite some famous products with reasonable price.



There are plenty of reasons that attracted me to try and come back again. First, lets talk about the price offer for the items. A tub of Nature Republic Aloe Vera Soothing Gel cost around RM32.90 in the local Nature Republic store, but Althea offers RM15. Isnt that sounds crazy? It is half of the original price. Also they offer daebak sales from time to time and update their products with new arrivals very frequent. Perhaps Althea is still consider new in Malaysia, the products they sell are still very limited. 

Second, their shipping service is really fast. Once the payment has been made, it usually took about one week to reach to your doorstep. They provide tracking number for you to keep an update on the parcel. Free shipping is free when your total purchase is over RM150, else the shipping charge will be differ according to the weight of items you purchase.

Order placed: 11 November 2015
Confirmed payment made: 11 November 2015
Parcel shipped from Korea: 13 November 2015
Parcel received in Malaysia: 17 November 2015

So the process took only 6 days from ordering to receiving the parcel, which includes weekends.

The webpage itself is easy to navigate and the staffs are very responsive to email or facebook comments. If you have any inquiries, just dropped them an email or in the facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/altheakorea/?fref=ts.
