    ~ Miscellaneous Tips, Guides and Products Update by Steve from Beading.com.my

One-Click to Track Your Parcel Online within Beading.com.my

Previously, in order to track your parcel, you will need to logon to Beading.com.my (or email account) to retrieve your tracking number. Then you will need to visit Skynet/Pos Laju website, fill in the tracking number, and hit the button TRACK. Skynet is still alright, but Pos Laju has the most idiotic website that I have ever seen. To track Pos Laju parcel, you will need to perform the following tasks (1) visit their website (2) select language (3) click Track & Trace (4) select Pos Laju (5) then fill in your tracking number… a whooping 5 steps processes!!!

It’s time to say sayonara to Skynet and Pos Laju official tracking parcel website!

For purchase order made from 20th November onwards, just logon to Beading.com.my, click the blue color Tracking Number and our system will automatically bring you to the tracking webpage (either Skynet or Pos Laju). Alternatively, our system will also send you an email with the tracking number. Just click the link wihin the email will get the same result. Below is the illustration:

Track your parcel via Beading.com.my: Logon to Beading.com.my, click your current Order Number and click the blue color Tracking Number.

Track your pacel via email account: Just logon to your email account registered with us and click the link. Make sure you White List our email address(i.e: sales {@} beading.com.my) so that our email doesn’t go into your Spam mailbox. White List means add our email address into your Contact.

Below is the example Tracking Summary Page for skynet:

Not forget to mention one great feature here: I like skynet because you can actually view the signed Airway Bill, click the View POD Image. This is extremely helpful if the parcel is being signed by your colleague and he/she have forgotten to inform you.

Why you need to track the activity since it is not real time updated?

Not every parcel will arrive in next day due to few reasons: (1) depend on your location (2) Nobody at home when the dispatch guy arrived at your premises, and (3) cannot find the recepient address and failed to contact receipient (rarely on this issue). If your parcel doesn’t reach your premises on next day, make sure you track your parcel online and give them a call when necessary.

Oh ya, you might need the Skynet Branch phone number: Skynet Branch Phone Number in case you want to screw them. Enjoy our new improvement!

First Time Ever Sales! Why??

Hey Beaders, if you have been following us since 2006 ( Oops, to be more precise, I should say since 2005, remember www.CreativeArt.com.my? ), this is our first time ever sales for many products. The only few sales I remember was the Overstocked Sales for Stainless Steel Tools, Pre-Order BeadMaster DVD and a few times Price Slashed (not sales).

There are 2 reasons why we are having sales:

(1) We support the government’s Price-Reduction campaign. Frankly, we cannot reduce the price of our products as we have never increase our products’ price since 2006 (2005). The best effort we can do is to have a sales promotion. When the petrol’s price increased 42% and skynet imposed 25% fuel surcharge on delivery service, we still maintain our shipping charges @ RM 5 flat for our customers.

(2) We need to clear some stocks as we will be going to China next month to replenish our stocks and to source for new products. Please drop me an email if you are looking for something that is not in our catalogue. You will see Wide Range of Charms somewhere in January!! (again, we will be closing for a week from 7th-12th December)

4mm Swarovski Bicone: Now is a good change for you to stock some Swarovski beads. This is the lowest price we can let go. You know, Swarovski used to increase their price every year and it is nearly impossible for us to sell 4mm bicone colors @ 14 cents each in future. If the sales respond is good, we might be able to extend the promotion period until December for this particular product (not for other products that are currently on sales).

Enjoy!!

New Products Updated: Stainless Steel Charms with Rhinestones

Hi Beaders, just updated some stainless steel charms with rhinestones. They have been sitting inside my plastic container for quite a while. I didn’t bring in a lot during my last trip to China, just want to test the market. If the response is good, I’m going to source for varieties of charms in the coming December trip to China.

Take note that the back of each pcs of charm is flat and doesn’t contain any rhinestones.

Meanwhile, I will go to Custom tomorrow (Wednesday is our off day) to claim back my goods from Taiwan. The DIY Mini Shops will be updated as soon as I got them back. Stay tuned!
