Five wacky things you never knew existed are actually available on e-commerce site Lazada
From prank smartphones to pens with hidden spycams , it’s all available on the Southeast Asian counterpart of Taobao
We have all seen or at least heard of the weird, quirky things you can find on Chinese e-commerce site Taobao, but its Southeast Asian counterpart Lazada does stock its fair share of crazy stuff too to ensure that no one gets left out.
Lazada is 83 per cent-owned by Alibaba Group Holding Limited, which also owns Taobao (along with the South China Morning Post), and has invested a total of US$4 billion in the portal, which operates in Indonesia, Malaysia, the Philippines and Singapore.
Since March last year, Lazada has also hosted a dedicated online store called Taobao Collection, to link shoppers in Singapore who want to shop from Taobao and are more comfortable with a local connection.
But as it turns out, you don’t need to go to Taobao to find some really wacky items to buy.
Business Insider browsed Lazada and found at least five items you’d never thought existed which you can actually buy.
