Solved.

However you can only do that if you know/trust the sellers very very well. Because once the name changed, your record cannot be used as a contractual evidence of your purchase.
yep i have been working around it for a while ;-) it is still a hassle tho.

And obviously its not something anyone can just do, esp a new customer to tao shopping and most importantly would be a lot harder for non Chinese speaker/typer etc
