/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Reposting from the last thread. It’s in good condition with no damages or signs of wear.

>>10444527
Honestly this era of AP is so hard to appraise rn, you could do a 7 day auction starting at $150 with a BIN of $400 and someone will likely buy it

>>10444765
Around $150-200 depending on how quickly you want to sell it.

>>10444527
The fact that it's a print known for bleeding, has already shown signs of bleeding, and is extremely likely to bleed when washed - don't think Milky Berry will ever see more than $200 even with the sweet resurgence, it's just a pain in the ass print as cute as it is

Reposting! I have the green colorway

>>10444910
I got mine for 145 on wunderwelt. Included the headbow

>>10444915
I got the set for $50 like 6 years ago, those were the days.
And yeah, the bitch bled. So.

>>10444910

If it was in pink I'd totally buy it...at least if red bleeds into pink you have a better chance of getting it to the point that the bleeding is there but invisible.

>>10444910
It’s definitely gone up, the ones on Japanese secondhand are going anywhere from $150-250, but yeah, the unfortunate state of this release has kept it from going way up like others from the era have.

>>10445121

Honestly good for people who like berry prints...I love pastels but strawberries just really do it for me. Glad that this one and possibly similar ones are going to be more of a deal. I have no problem risking a loss to remove stains/bleeding.

Curious how much this would be going for nowadays

>>10445137
Less than $200. There’s one up now on eBay that has been there for like 5-6 months at $200, and they seem to go in Japanese secondhand for $150-180

>>10444882
Thanks anon. I hadn’t seen it for sale in a while so it was hard for me to judge how much to sell for.

Mary Magdalene Cordelia OP?

>>10444527
Depending on how much you end up listing it for I’d like to buy it, where do you plan on posting it?

>>10445142
Thank you anon

I know which one you’re talking about, it kind of sucks they won’t drop the price seeing as how it’s the dress only but older listings on LM went for a little over $100 with the KC and socks included

might be a little unusual of a request but how much should i be prepared to shell out for one of these bad boys in grey or black secondhand? the dolly kei thread made me remember how much i used to love ahcahcum back in the day

Reposting from last thread.

Baby Bambi and Alice print?

>>10445187
Last one sold NWT in this colorway for $324 but you could probably get $350-$450 for it depending on condition since it’s wool and pretty rare.

reposting from last thread. it is nwt btw. ik this release isnt super popular but how much could i get for it?

>>10445402
This went on sale, I think it got down to $180. You would be lucky to get any more, I kept considering it at the sale price because it sat there forever

>>10445402
The only popular colorway of this series was the navy x offwhite, and in the other cut. I agree with the anon above, maybe $125-$160 if you're looking for a quick sale.

>>10445413
>>10445428
ty anons!!! i just need to get rid of it bc im 5"2' and the tea length cut is so unflattering ugh

Asking again about the Princess Cat bag, since no one replied in the last thread.

>>10445267
Thanks! I’ll probably put it up for auction then starting at that price

>>10445449
Start an auction at like 75-100. I wouldn't do a BIN price.

>>10445228
I have the cat face purse and pouch if you're interested. The pouch is brand new but the purse is damaged from use

>>10445536
hey, thanks for the offer! i actually have a cat bag + pouch on the way in the mail. thank you though!

>>10445200
I posted it to LM today. It's at a little less than what I paid for the set and if it doesn't sell for this price then feel free to make an offer and I'll take less.

i have this in sax and I'm not sure how to price is as second hand BL is all over the place.
I'm thinking $20? I'm likely selling it with a rose colored blouse from aatp and a matching baby headbow. The listing as a whole would be $60 or so?

>>10445536
Not that anon, but I might like it. How much were you thinking?

How much for this? It's in good condition, print isn't faded. I also have matching OTKs and KC.

>>10446771
Anon, this usually goes for around 150.

I will pay 200 for the whole set if you're interested

>>10446771
last one listed on LM went for $220, so i'd say $150-$220

How much can I get away with selling a damaged jewlry jelly skirt for? Bought it a while back and never really wore because it's super faded and has some staining. Also is without waist ties.

>>10446889
Not much. With the AP sweet resurgence I'd say start an auction at $50 and someone will likely bid at least that. I guess it also depends on which color, too, since some will be easier to clean/hide stains with than others.

>>10446904
Thanks anon! Was thinking about that, probably gonna stick it on fb sales for like £40 including shipping, might try n get the stains out one more time

Thinking about parting with my Going Out Chocolat-chan skirt but since it sells to rarely on the western market I’m not sure how to price it. It’s in excellent condition, especially considering it’s age.
Pardon the old Closet Child photo, I’ve never been able to dig up stock photos for this skirt.

>>10448178

>Chocolat-chan

There is a Vanilla-Chan AND a Chocolat-chan? Damn, that's fucking cute.

>>10448182
Chocolat-chan seems to be Vanilla-chan’s predecessor! I don’t think she’s been on a piece since 2007, though.

>>10446378
Could you post pics of the headband and blouse?

>>10448178
Maybe 100-150? I don't think skirts are popular but the applique may be.

How much should I expect an angel's window to go for nowadays?

price check for a nwt lace frill jsk?

>>10448811
Depends on color, cut, and condition. If there's any damage it will be under $150. Otherwise the fully shirred jsk in good condition should be closer to $200.

>>10448812
They're common and go on sale too, so around $140-180

>>10448178
Probably no more than $100, it's really niche.

>>10448826

If you put it for auction you'll likely get more from fatties looking for old school because of the shirring. Pink old school is a little less popular than black, white or red colors though.

>>10448812
I disagree with >>10448827. If it's an older release, maybe, but I've seen newer ones go for at least $200.

>>10448830
I'm just going off of what I sold mine for a little over a year ago. I bought direct from Baby when they had a sale and only wore it worn once. It was in good condition and I sold it for much less than $140 after months of no bites.

>>10448829
Definitely agree that auction is the way to go. The pink shirring jsk is the least popular colorway for Angel's Window so I'd start at a price where you're comfortable with and I'm sure there will be a few interested buyers.

>>10448829
its the 2020 red colorway, no damage and never tried on. im thinking about setting the auction around 170-180 ?

>>10448836
I'd set it at $180 for auction. If you want to add a BIN price, I'd put it around $225+ or whatever you're comfortable with letting it go at.

Berry Chan JSK in pink?

>>10448836

Yeah I'd say 150 absolute minimum starting price for auction but someone will undoubtedly bid well above that. Auctions bring out the competition in people and they'll pay far more than if you just put a BIN price and no auction. But at the same time if you want quick cash auction with a below $200 start bid plus a reasonably higher BIN should be a good choice so people can buy right away I'd they really want to.

>>10448845
200

Price check on Ichigo Millefeuille? (Looking to buy, not sell)

>>10448845
Anon if you’re thinking about selling, I’d totally buy it!!

I'm thinking of selling this. But also thinking of modifying it. How much do you think the going rate is?
I'm trying to decide if it's worth it to sell instead of modifying it. I haven't seen it sold often or recently.
(Bought new and worn once and I'd sell with the KC)

What does Fairy Marine OP in pink go for nowadays? Been out of the game for a few years

>>10454520
I keep seeing these pop up on second hand markets for $200-$300 which imo is too high. They stay there forever because no one wants to pay that much. There is one on mercari or fril thats been there for months.

>>10454544
I don't think this would be more than $150

>>10454544
I paid 120 USD for mine, red colourway, no KC. I think 150 with KC is a fair price

>>10454551
That's why I asked on here - I passed up on buying that mint one on LM for $80 so it seems like a bad move to spend over $200 on mercari when the western market doesn't seem to care much for it

But with the prices of AP being such a crapshoot it's like well , maybe I should go for it? Idk

>>10454558
>>10454559
Hmm, that's not too bad. Thanks anons. I can always test the waters and if no one bites, then try my changes.

>>10454520
Price is usually around $100-120 for the JSKs and OPs on Western sites and when it pops up on wunderwult and such. They're just harder to find. Kind of like Meta Apple... usually doesn't go for too much, but a pain in the ass to get. Good luck in your search!

>>10454544
I paid ~150 shipped domestic with the KC in black, this colorway isn't as popular, maybe slightly less?

How much does she go for? W/o headbow and w/ headbow?

>>10454629
At/above retail on JP secondhand; did you email Baby if they've got leftover stock?

Original release Carnival OP? I know this was in the last thread but do you gulls think the recent resurgence of OTT sweet will drive this price up? Or do you think it’s still considered more old school? I haven’t worn it in years but I’m considering selling

>>10455514
Pretty sure this is the least popular colorway, my guess is $300

>>10455514
definitely more than 300! do an auction

>>10455516
LMAO nice try trying to get this for cheap.

>>10455514
Honestly anon the way the market is going, I say start the auction between $250-$300 and see where it goes. I'm sure someone will come along and offer you more for it.

How much is this going for nowadays?

>>10456489
I saw it sell for like 300 USD or something ridiculous. Would just put it as an auction.

>>10456489
The last auction was at $295 with 4 days left

>>10456512
>>10456690
Holy shit. Thanks, that helps to know

>>10456489
>>10456690
Wow. I bought this from CC maybe a year ago for $30-40.

I miss those times.

Probably selling my sax Dream Marine JSK. The previous owner mailed the dress to me without the halter neck straps, what do you think is a good price for this with the pieces missing? I think its in pretty good shape otherwise but I would have to double check.

>>10456805
It’s not that popular in the western community, it seems like it’s Chinese lolitas who want this dress. Maybe $250-275? I’ve seen sets sit on Lacemarket forever for around $300

Haven't seen a single one of these for sale so I'm curious

>>10456866
Considering these weren’t released outside of Japan you might be able to get a decent amount. I’d do an auction starting at $300

>>10456805
Nyart I have this cut and wear it without the halter straps
I think this is the most popular cut so $250 minimum, but I think you can get more.

How much is good for Fantasic Dolly in Ivory? Comes with KC and socks?

>>10457173
Is it the MTO or is it the good one?

>>10456866
Agreed with >>10456870, but desu I'd do it sooner rather than later on the offchance it's rereleased this year

>>10457184
The good one!

>>10448178
Are you still selling??

What would Miracle Candy go for?

>>10457491
Put that shit on auction and probably a lot. The JSKs keep getting instantly swiped on the apps at 18000.

Thinking about selling my Chateau de Nounours jsk with the matching bows. How much could I ask for this? I’m the first owner.

>>10458052
I’ll buy for $250

What is a good price for Mily Chan applique in black?
Condition is very good

>>10459324
I'd try for $300, maybe more, assuming it's not the polka dot version. This almost never comes up and I'm sure a few people are looking for it.
>Mfw looked for wine applique for years

>>10459324
Hey anon, I’ve been looking for any of the appliqué versions in black for a while. Dropping my email for you! Willing to pay more than >>10459365

>>10459324
Hi anon, I'm also looking for this. I strongly recommend you put this up on auction as I'm pretty sure it's on many people's wishlists.

>>10459324
I'm also looking for it but specifically the polka dot version.

>>10459324
which version is it? Im also looking to buy it
I agree with >>10459387 to just put it up for auction

>>10459324
I'm also interested, here's my throwaway! I'm willing to either buy it outright or see it go up for auction

>>10459436
>>10459425
>>10459383
Cunts

>>10459436

>>10459390

How much for Whimsical Vanilla Chan in pink with headbow in great condition (no stretching, flaws,....)

>>10459651
Start an auction at 100 and see where it goes, the market is crazy these days. If you're asking how much it costs to buy, expect to pay at least 400.

>>10444527

How much can I expect to pay for AP Honey Cake skirt and KC in yellow? It was last sold for over $200 (just the skirt) this past month which seems affordable price wise. Does the KC make it worth significantly more or is it only going to add $30-$50 to the price like a typical KC costs?

>>10459651
seconding an auction. Honestly with the sweet revival auctions are probably the way to go, maybe start at $200 though

>>10459954

Yeah it is good to always start an auction at the minimum you are willing to accept for the item (what you paid/market rate plus some for rarity/demand, minus some for damage, etc.); it is definitely worth more than $100

>>10459651
Are you selling or buying?

How much is this bad boy going for now? I haven't been actively watching the sales but I know 2010 sweet is making a big comeback

>>10459997
At this point, it might go for over $1000 now. The last auction I saw of this colorway went for around $350, but that was months ago.

>>10459997
Anywhere from 350 to 2,000

>>10459997
I’m looking to buy this and willing to spend $1k if that’s good enough for you but honestly anon you should put it at a bid because it might go for more

>>10458052
Around $275-325

>>10457173
Between $250-300. Unfortunately ivory wouldn't fetch as much as red or lav

https://lolibrary.org/items/meta-crown-print-tiered-jsk

how much should I sell this for, in white?
Alternatively if anyone has the black, I'd love to trade.

>>10448812
I wouldn't list this for less than 170, even though red is not very popular.

>>10459651
Id buy it for 400 right now but other anons seem more dedicated

>>10446380
Sorry I never check here. It's listed on Keimarket and you can make an offer

I have the JSK and Headbow for the Jewelry Jelly special set in pink that I'm thinking of selling, the fabric is a little wrinkly but the glitter is intact. Any idea what I should ask for it?

>>10462099
Put it up for bid starting at like $150/$200. JJ recently became really popular due to some ig lolitas.

>>10462099
$1000

>>10462120
A+ comedy

But srsly plz no.

>>10462099
>>10462103
Seconding an auction, I bought my switching JSK with no headbow for around £140, so maybe start an auction at £200ish? especially as you have the headbow
Basically just start at the lowest you're willing to take for it

I have this and I wanna see how much itd go for

>>10462356

Fucking lurk more, holy shit.
Stop asking about AP sweet for once goddammit. AUCTIONS AUCTIONS AUCTIONS

How much do you think this guy will go for now?

>>10462435
$300+ with today's market

>>10462356
300

>>10459651
>>10462356
>>10462435
I'm convinced all these people are just humble bragging. It's common knowledge all of these are worth an absurd amount/hundreds now. I also haven't seen a lot of the asks here pop up on LM.

I have AATP Jewelry Box in this ivory/mint colorway, not sure what I can sell it for.

Pricepoint for Royal Poodle jsk?

Also have the socks, bonnet and choker for Sweetie & just the socks for Paris.

Price point for Runt Cat Bouquet Frill skirt & matching headbow? Has a few stains.

>>10462980
This is not a popular dress, I’d start around $150 but be prepared to lower it to around half of that if you’re unlucky

looking to sell a btssb heart apron, does anyone have an idea what I should list it at? Not sure of the release year but it's the same design as this one

How much are you selling it for anon? I'm interested!

>>10464876
I think pink is one the lesser popular colours for the apron? I'd say try and auction starting at 70€ based on what I've seen on LM.

>>10462982
It's not very popular, it has sold with headbow in this colorway for about 90€. Try 80?

I had no idea old ap was going for so much. I have a closet full of 2008-2012 stuff that I never even wear anymore. I’m tempted to sell it.

>>10465252
I have the milky Chan ribbon jsk plus matching head bow and socks, and the plush scarf. I wonder if I would get more if I sold them as a set or if I sold each separately?

>>10465267
Sell it together. Maybe separate the scarf, but keep the headbow and socks with the dress

>>10465267

Separately for sure. People really like real and replica milky chan socks. Maybe the JSK and KC as set. Scarf alone already goes for a lot lately.

>>10465267
if you want more money sell separate. some people may be looking for just the kc and will bid up the price.

>>10465269
>>10465270
>>10465272
Thanks for the advice guys, I’m going to think about it. Maybe I’ll sell the scarf separately. I’m on the fence about the jsk because it was one of the first things I purchased from ap directly. I’ma give it some serious thought.

whip factory high cut jsk in good condition? any colorway

Is Dream Marine with the KC worth $500? The one I’m eyeing is like new but I’m hesitant to buy with a price tag like that.

>>10465267
Separately, plenty of milky chan collectors will already own the scarf and may only want the jsk/kc. The scarf alone will probably go for ~200

How much will this jsk go for , including the KC

>>10465874
It’s by far the least popular colorway. But since sweet is on the rise, try starting an auction for $200 and people will probably bid it up from there

>>10465267
You'll probably want an auction but I'm interested in the set without scarf if you want to HMU.

How much does Fancy Paper Dolls, high waisted cut in pink go for?

>>10465985
$200-$300 if it's not damaged. do an auction

>>10465985
I agree with $200-300 if it's in good condition. I've been wanting the pink colorway for awhile. If you have it, I'll happily participate in a bid on LM.

How much would Elodie Doll in Bordeaux go for in good condition? I'm seeing around $300 on LM, is that accurate? I'm not immediately looking to sell but I have been considering it for a while since I just don't wear it very often.

price check for melty ribbon chocolate in the pink colorway? checked the listings on lm and they seem to be all over the place

>>10466146
I thought it was accurate, if you check the classic thread apparently other people think it should be cheaper

>>10466159
Thanks for directing me there anon! I was thinking the $300 seemed possibly inflated - not that $300 is unreasonably high for MM, but it seems to have sold for half that just a year ago, so I wasn't sure whether the recent sales were just flukes. I might have a look at Japanese auctions sites to see the trends, I probably won't sell until I get at least one more wear out of it but I'm curious now.

How much would this go for? Or the jsk?

>>10466217
Probably $700+ Depending on condition in today’s market.

>>10466156
Put it up for auction but you can probably get $500-$600 for it. Especially since this color isn’t getting rereleased. More with accessories

>>10466217
god literally you and anyone else wanting an AP Pricecheck: put it on 7 day auction, end of story. stop clogging up the thread

most of you aren't even uploading anyway so it's either larping or flexing

>>10457203
Sorry for the delay, Anon, I rarely check here. Feel free to email me an offer if you’d like; I’m still not 100% on selling, since I love the skirt a lot but I also don’t see myself wearing it again anytime soon.

>>10466229
I'm not selling it want to buy it or the jsk

>>10466229
Most of the people have uploaded. The lyrical bunny jewellery literally just got posted. Of course people don't post things immediately after posting here.
And maybe these people only want to sell if they think they're going to get a certain price point? Yes, auctions are the way to go but if an anon only wants to sell at a certain price the auction takes that completely out of control. There's nothing wrong with trying to get an estimate first to make sure the auction might meet their price point.

>>10466232
It'll go for a ridiculous amount of money. Save up $700 at minimum.

>>10466233
The people that do upload? Put it on auction. Long story short, now is the time to sell older AP. It doesn't make sense to me to keep uploading obviously rare and/or coveted AP and asking how much it'll go for, answer is $500+ easy for mainpieces and $100+ for most accessories.

>>10466234
Except that's not true at all, a ton of older AP stuff has sold recently for sub $300. Just because everyone wants milky planet and Sugary carnival doesn't mean tiara rose or anything in black is going to also go for $500. This is a price check thread, not "should I do an auction or BIN" thread, and you're mad people are asking for price checks.

>>10444527
I have this 3 Tier Frill JSK in green from Meta and as much as I love it, I hate green. What would be a good price for it? I paid $300 for it and I rather do trades desu

Milky Planet brooch? I know AP jewelry goes high overall but I'm not sure if the same still applies for this, it's not as versatile as a necklace or ring.

>>10466472
Are you looking to sell? I would love to buy it if so

>>10466472
Everyone is hungry for anything Milky Planet/Ice Cream related so you could probably do a $70 starting auction and get at least 100, maybe even 150-200

>>10466477
I really doubt that it would reach 200. Maybe if it was the necklace. 100-150 is more likely

>>10466482
at least 100 with a max of 150 or absolute extreme outlier of 200 is exactly what I said but ok

we're in an extremely sensitive fluctuating market, 200 is not outside the realm of possibility when dresses are selling for $1200 and pony bags reach almost $400 now

>>10466474
On the fence! If I do, I think I'm leaning towards LM though.
>>10466477
Noted, thanks anon!
>>10466482
I have the necklace and bracelet as well, I figured those I'd just auction. Not sure if I should bundle them?

>>10466485
I'd sell them apart.

Related note, how much would this and the headband sell for? I don't wear them much but I'm attached to them, so I'm not sure about selling unless I could get a decent amount.

>>10466484
Nowhere did you say $200 was an “extreme outlier” price. Quit backtracking retard

>>10466517
It's why it's included in the price range, do you not know how a min-max scale works? where you list a minimum first, and a maximum last?
>maybe even 150-200
Where 150 is a likely/expected max ending bid price, and 200 is the unlikely/not as much expected ending bid price

>>10466485
Separate them for maximum amount of money, keep them together if you like the idea of the set staying together

>>10466525
Sperg harder retard

>>10466525
I honestly don’t think it’s expected. Maybe I’m wrong and some idiots will get into a bidding war, but I saw it sit for a few days on the Japanese secondhand sites recently for $75

>>10445261
Anywhere from 150-200. It’s pretty uncommon, plus old school is on trend right now, and it’s one of the rare “plus sized” old school releases.

>>10466546

Old school plus sized pieces aren't that rare. A ton of old school or old school aesthetic pieces are fully shirred?

>>10446771
Put it on auction starting at $100 I know a lot of people who are looking for this set, especially lavender, myself included. You could probably get upwards of $300 so don’t sell yourself short by selling straight out at a flat price like these other anons are suggesting

>>10460026
Start an auction at $75 I’m sure it would skyrocket in no time.

>>10466490
Put them on auction as a bundle. But I’m ready to throw down around $150 for the set. Who knows there may be someone crazier then me willing to pay more.

BTSSB Ginger Man OP in black/black. Its an old 2005 velveteen dress but in good condition. It used to be popular with Lolita/Gyaru. I'm not sure how to price it so any input is appreciated.

Considering selling my fancy hospital set. I have the pink OP, the ivory tights, the pink hat and the headband in white/pink..

I am not sure if I should keep items together or sell separately. I have no clue what I should ask for any of these items.

>>10466156
A bitter set just sold yesterday for 1350.

>>10466229
some people don't want to auction and end up getting very little for a highly sought after dress due to timing. This thread is for price checking? So people are natural going to... price check their items. Its not clogging up the board...

>>10466953
Separately. I really want that hat

>>10466953
Put the hat up on its own. I’m willing to pay a few hundred for it on its own

>>10467022
>>10467024
The only thing I would be worried about separating is the hat would drive up the price of the set and make the entire set more valuable, but if just the hat sells, the dress becomes worth less

How much could I get for cotton candy shop in black, missing waist ties, with the headbow?

>>10467031
The dress will sell. It’s not worth the $500 it once went for but you could get a solid $250. $300 if you list the OP with the hat. Putting the hat up for auction will get you the most money overall. The people looking for it probably already have the dress and would be less likely to spend on the set

>>10467036
With the tights I mean, not with the hat. Maybe even $325 with the tights.

price check for cinema doll in grey?

>>10467031
A lot of us already have the dress and the socks, but there's significantly less hats (I'm assuming people who didn't buy any main pieces from the series still went out of their way and bought hats)

>>10467039
Maybe a little over retail. Cinema Doll just went through another release at the Nagoya store, it had an MTO, don't think it commands those $500+ prices anymore but I could be wrong

>>10464221
I’m looking for the price point for either of these, anyone?

>>10466953
The people responding selfishly want the hat and are steering you wrong. Sell the set together, you can get 500 if the hats included

>>10466953
Sell it together
But it’s possible you can get more if you do a bid separately

>>10467198
I’m willing to pay $350 for the hat alone, but I wouldn’t bother if it included the dress. I guess she doesn’t want $350 on top of the $350 she could make with the OP and tights set

>>10467201
Yeah sure bud. Lol I hope she doesn't sell it to you, you reek of desparation.

>>10467206
You reek of seething poorfag.

>>10467207
No I really don't care about that ugly hat or dress. Just thought it was pathetic how hard you're trying to get her to sell it to you lmao

>>10467208
Sounds like you’re just upset you don’t have money to buy the things you want and that $350 seems so out of reach kek. People put offers in these and the BST threads all the time.

>>10467210
No you're just embarassing lol

>>10467211
Sure poorfag, whatever you say. I’m so embarrassed about wanting to buy this hat. How shameful.

>>10467214
No not about how much you're spending or how much you want it, just by how desparate you're acting lol.

>>10466955
It was a full set with wristcuffs, barette, bag (damaged), and hair combs so I wouldn't expect other sets to sell that high. Pink is also the least favorite color because it is more dull than previous pink jacquard releases

>>10467217
The more you post the more you just sound like an enraged poorfag. If I was really so desperate, I would have dropped an email. We can all see this is because you’re mad you can’t throw money at what you want

>>10467198
500 for the set...or get over $700 selling separately?

I like the idea of stuff selling as a set, too, but if >>10466953 is interested in purely making a profit, selling separately in this market is the way to go

Time to pare down my wardrobe a little, looking for some pricing advice for:
AP Creamy Mami Ring (I saw the necklace went for 175 recently on LM but I know rings as a whole are a much lower ticket item)
Meta Secret Laboratory JSK and Cat Ear Cape, both in red/ruby.
AP Classic Melody Switching JSK in black.

>>10467679
Hey anon if you are planning to sell the Creamy Mami ring I’d be more than happy to buy it from you as I have been looking for it for ages.

>>10467679
Put it on auction as I have been looking for it too and will happily bidwar >>10467683 into submission.

Price for Fruits Parlor in pink?

Wrong pic ooops

>>10467679
If you do decide to sell I’d be happy to buy Classic Melody Switching from you for $150, though I can negotiate price if you want

>>10448178
If you're selling, LMK! I'll look at any price.

>>10467840
$200 if it comes with the brooch. you might be able to get more if you do an auction, but I don't think it's one of the more desired prints right now

>>10467679
Highly interested in one of these. Message me if you’re still selling.

>>10467922
>>10467918
>>10467844
>>10467201
Makes me laugh that last thread anons were bitching people out for dropping emails in the price check thread yet here we are lmao

>>10467844
Well even I'd buy the dress for that, it's worth 250-300

>>10467925
One of those doesn’t even have an email idiot

>>10467925
Honestly I don’t give a shit if a bunch of gulls get mad about it. I’ve had luck grabbing rare items that way before.

>>10467679
Classic melody is at least $200, saw it sold for that on mercari I think

>>10467679
Whatever you do don’t put a BIN or accept offers on that creamy mami ring. I know of more than a few people who will probably bid it up to insane prices

>>10467983
How insane, anon?

>>10467994
Hundreds

>>10467994
Yeah like >>10467995 said hundreds. The creamy mami collab is the type of item to attract lolitas who pay a lot

>>10467983

I know one person I follow on IG that is definitely also a gull and is trying to collect Creamy Mami items; she seems to have money to burn since she is always buying new things regularly and I have seen her disappointed when dream items have a BIN and she misses them cause she seems to be willing to pay the price of an auction. I can imagine there are others interested to that degree as well, and many of them are likely oldfags with good jobs, not broke newbies.

too many to reply to but thanks for all the advice about the creamy mami ring! i think i will definitely just list it on lm (once i’ve checked it over for any tiny scratches i might have missed etc and taken some good photos) for bidding and let it go where it will, then! i didn’t know if it went for a lot less than other items in the collab (lm sold prices are all over the place) but now as a whole seems a good time to say goodbye to plastic jewellery i don’t wear.

What could I expect for milky chan ring? I can do an auction but I don't want under $100.

>>10468054
Milky Chan anything is popular, I'd expect at LEAST $100, maybe ending at $200-$300

>>10468054
Honestly you probably won’t get over $100. Even recently there were some rings priced at $80~ on mercari that didn’t sell for weeks.

If you had a set you could probably get people to bid it up more.

I would expect $75-$80

>>10468057
This is a troll

>>10468059
Thanks Anon, I probably won't list it then
I did see one ended at $100+ once so I thought there might be a chance.

>>10468054
I don't think I've been a ring sold for over $100 recently. They seem to cap out at ~$80.

>>10468057
This is crazy. Even the "coveted" Fantasy Elephant necklace didn't go over $200, and a ton of people are always saying they want it. No way a ring breaks that amount right now.

>>10468067
The lyrical bunny necklace is currently $250 though. But I agree, rings are usually cheaper

>>10468070
That Lyrical bunny necklace is far more rarer than a milky-chan ring. The milky-chan ring has popped up 10x in various secondhand markets over the past four months

>>10468072
I was talking about it in reference to the elephant necklace anon.

>>10468067

The winning bidder put their max bid at $300. If I wasn't broke right now from corona related job problems I would have tried to outbid them at least to $500. I'm already planning to buy the overpriced ring and giraffe ring from mercari or fril scalpers the second I can afford to.

>>10468078
Woulda coulda shoulda poorfag

>>10468078
>If I had money I would have paid a lot!! Really!
Why do you think your opinion matters?

>>10468067
I think the Fantasy Elephant necklace went for so cheap because all the people following it were expecting it to get crazy and so didn't even bother bidding (Or, at least, that's my case)

Still think the ring can get at least $100

Price? Not sure if I want to part with it.

>>10468082

I guess my goal was to point out many people who would and could have otherwise paid more are tapped out after 6 months of various economic conditions caused by recent events like the pandemic making most people financially worse off. For us Ameirfags anyway.

I used to drop lots on DDs and hauls from Japanese secondhand; but in the last month or so despite having the money technically I can't in good conscience spend it on lolita rather than save it in case things get any worse financially.

>>10468085
maybe $300, considering the similar one is up to 250 right now on auction

>>10468085
Please do an auction if you do decide to sell. I am willing to pay more than $300.

>>10468082
>>10468079

Y'all totally ignored the more important point that someone DID bid 300 bucks for it, meaning that to them at least that's what it was worth. Odds are that people seeing the jewelry market are also just tired of watching prices go up and decided to snipe bids toward the end to save as much as possible rather than stupidly bid up the price unnecessarily high.

Or like another anon said didn't bother cause they assumed it would get crazy expensive anyway.

>>10468088
Ok but this is the best market for jewelry in awhile despite that. Saying "I bet it would go for even more if xyz hasn't happened" is extremely pointless. Nobody is asking for how much things sell for in the fantasy world where everyone has jobs and money to blow.

>>10468092
All of this makes me nervous because I'm probably going to get into a bidding war with one of the jewelry pieces currently on LM. I'm not even sure what my max price is, considering it is a dream item. My fear is that the current high-bidder is just as ruthless as me, and not someone who will become disinterested. My only comfort is that if I lose, someone is going to pay an obnoxious price as fallout.

>>10468092
I’m calling >>10468078 specifically poor. I am not ignoring that someone bid $300. Just mocking the idiot who says she “totally would have!!” paid $500 for it. Put your money where your mouth is or shut up

>>10468098
Do it anon
I wanna see people spend $1000 on AP jewellery. The reeeing would never end.

I feel like the sweet boom is going to end soon. I already see comm members and lolita friends making fun of anyone spending ridiculous amounts on jewelry and non main pieces; and more and nore regular posts complaining about dress prices too comparing to what they spent on theirs less than a year ago. Even people comparing the market to Gaia Online.

Good on those who sold while the getting was good though, enjoy your coin anons.

>>10468092
You're not wrong, but the thing is the person willing to pay $300 now has the item and isn't going to pay $300 for another one. Is there another person willing to pay $300? Or only people like anon who would 100% pay $300 if only they weren't broke and had to replace their toaster and their hamster suddenly needed surgery?

>>10468107
i doubt it because of chinese lolitas

>>10468105
Thank you anon. This put a smile on my face... I've been feeling sick about it ever since the auction went up.

I don't want to name my price here, in case someone is watching/knows what piece I'm talking about. But what I'm willing to spend is even higher now, because there's not much left on my wishlist. I'm almost numb to spending a lot on a single piece of jewelry if my purchases are becoming fewer and far in-between.

I do admit that I expect people to find the listing and post about it after it ends. I'll be sitting here watching everyone scream.

>>10468107
>I feel like the sweet boom is going to end soon.

Kek, this is nothing but wishful thinking. I see tons of people even now with constant bloodbaths for AP sweet saying they’re doing poorly or that nobody likes their designs anymore. I remember back when ICP first got previewed some anons called out the return of 2010 sweet and dumbasses denied saying there were no signs of it. There will always be stupid people like you denying the reality of the lolita market

>I already see comm members and lolita friends making fun of anyone spending ridiculous amounts on jewelry and non main pieces;

I promise you the people spending hundreds on jewelry don’t care about the opinions of salty poorfags

>>10468101

There's a difference between being poor and not actively spending money on lolita in favor of saving which was addressed/clarified later on. Let's just try to enjoy the thrill of watching the hyped up pieces sell or getting our own rather than waste time being mad that people decided not to spend their money on something. It's always actual poorfags accusing people of being poor on 4chan anyway.

>>10468109
I'm >>10468098 and this is what lurks back of my head. I keep thinking if I wait for the high bidders like myself to get their pieces, I'll have a more sane chance to finally get it myself. But so far, prices just keep going up and competition keeps getting more fierce. So I feel like I need to rip off the bandaid now before we really do get into $1k jewelry territory.

>>10468112

I'm stupid for theorizing about trends based lolitas I know irl rather than only listening to what gulls say?

Damn you sound like you're looking for a reason to be a cunt and call everyone salty for no reason.

>>10468113
>It's always actual poorfags accusing people of being poor on 4chan anyway.

Stop projecting

>>10468116
You’re stupid for thinking the people buying these things care about people complaining. You’re stupid for thinking the hype for 2010 sweet will die down soon because it’s obvious the people you’re hearing these things from can’t afford it and are salty about it

>>10468107
On the contrary, I think prices are going to keep climbing to a point where people except that only the "elite" can afford sweet AP.

A new ruling class will be born.

>>10468116
It's not stupid. Trends always ebb and there's always people who think the current trend is going to be a trend forever
The world is particularly shitty right now, it makes sense that people want to retreat into the bright world of 2010 sweet. Things will change

>>10468120

The dozens of people I hear these things from are of varied income levels and people with different opinions. I wasn't saying all of them are thinking all of the things I mentioned, but that many of them are making points here and there and even peoole on cgl as much as you wanna call them all poorfags also notice the diminishing returns on the joy an item can bring you knowing you spent so much that could go toward other desired items two or three times over, whether you have cash burning a hole in your pocket or not.

>>10468107

On the contrary, I think prices are going to keep climbing to a point where people accept that only the "elite" can afford sweet AP.

A new ruling class will be born.

>>10468124
Sure Jan. Let the market speak for itself instead of anecdotal “evidence” of people who can’t afford things bitching about it

Friendly reminder not to respond to bait and shit stirring posts gulls, they derail threads and suck the fun out of them

>>10468130
Friendly reminder that you aren’t a mod and pretending to be one is pathetic at best

>>10468127

That sounds like an interesting direction for things to go in. I feel like eventually if that happens indie brands for nice quality and sized sweet jewelry in particular may get more popular or taobao brands might start producing more similar styles to APs plastic jewelry if they're smart enough to notice trends.

As someone who hates wearing jewelry beyond earrings and has most of my 2010 sweet DDs, seeing how the market evolves in that area is fun for me and not being emotionally attached to it means no stress as well.

>>10468135

>wahh you're not the boss of me reee

Non mods point out/ask people to stop getting into dumb arguments over weak bait all the time. Doesn't mean they're pretending to be one.

>>10468141
It’s LARPing as a mod and cringe

>>10468142

Is it not fairly common to complain or request people not derail threads? I see it all the time when stuff like politics, trans stuff, etc. comes up. What's cringe about expressing a desire to stay on topic? We all come here to talk about lolita (or cosplay). Why would it be cringe for people prefer we actually discuss these subjects?

>>10468147
It is because this place is filled with newfags from FB. Something being common doesn’t mean it’s accepted

>>10468148

I always suspected the biggest influx of newbies came as a result of that video Tyler made a while ago on cgl.

>>10468123
this. ive been spending a lot of money on sweet since the pandemic start because im locked up in here with nothing to do but as soon as i can go out into the world again trust me my funds will not be going towards lolita. for this to happen in such a short amount of time (which lines up perfectly with when the pandemic started) and for people to think its gonna last forever is silly.

also ive been seeing the same thing happen in other expensive hobbies im in where the market is just going crazy right now.

>>10468248
Same here, plus I have slight FOMO watching the market go up. And then there are all the people who actually made more money unemployed and want to buy consumer goods now, that's not gonna last forever.

>>10468248
That's one theory. On the other hand, if Angelic Pretty doesn't rerelease the dresses and replicas aren't made then they could be like any other collector hobby pieces where the price only really keeps going up until we die out in 70 years or so, then the market goes away and nobody remembers anyone ever gave a shit about jfashion.

>>10468107
The sweet boom just started. Ever since toy doll box, or even before, people have been nostalgic about that Era. It's just come to a head due to the pandemic - from people selling old releases to make money, from spring cleaning, from us being stuck inside and some of us having more money than before and don't have vacations to spend on and instead are spending it on long-term dream items. These crazy prices are going to continue for at least another year or two.

>>10468262
This is the most accurate prediction. Buckle the fuck up poorfags

>>10467841
Recently bought one for around $150, if that helps.

>>10468262

I feel like sweet has always been around and popular so I'd hardly call it a boom or time specific.

>>10468281
Not even. From around 2014/2016 to well, now-ish, sweet was really really cheap because everyone was jumping onto the OTT classic/sweet-classic blend (think the princess sleeves, bonnets, baby scepters, etc.) When that was happening, 2010 era sweet wasn't popular. Stuff that's selling for 300+ now was going for 100 and under because no one wanted it. Things like sugary carnival and the original release of Honey Cake were still coveted, but prints like Jewelry Jelly, Magic Princess, even Milky Planet, were selling for way less. Only this year did the prices go back to above retail.

>>10468305
I've been wondering if the same thing is going to happen to classic. Now seems like a good time to pick up my favorite ribbon, secret garden, etc.

>>10468306
Now that sweet is becoming popular again, I'd expect classic to get cheaper, and gothic maybe staying the same (or even getting more expensive, from the sound of the gothic threads)

>>10468305

I feel like most people stick to their favored substyles though so sweetfags have always liked sweet? I dunno I guess I wear only what I like and that hasn't changed much for me regardless of trends so I assumed some people out there are the same and didn't chase what was popular, especially given they're in a fashion like lolita that despite trends is pretty consistent in a lot of ways.

>>10468320
well, when taken on a large scale, trends are bound to work. the most influenced people might jump on the latest trend at every chance, while the less influenced people might only get one dress that's a bit on the edge of their comfort zone, and then some people might get none. Like it was said above, people leaned towards sweet-classic for a while, maybe thinking they needed jewel tones and more mature styles because that was the trend but then realized they never outgrew ott sweet and regret giving up pieces from that time.

>>10468313
If the price of Katrina is anything to go by, you're not wrong. Dress is practically worthless compared to what it used to go for.

>>10468322
>then realized they never outgrew ott sweet and regret giving up pieces from that time.
That could be true, I know a lot of people shifted from ott sweet to classic.

>>10468320
>sweetfags have always liked sweet
yes. and then sweet-classic hybrid was the hot thing, so many people who were into 2009 era sweet drifted to that trend. Now that that trend is mostly dead, and AP is still really beating the dead horse here putting out stuff that caters to this supposedly more mature classic-sweet-larme hybrid, we're over it and are nostalgic for the stuff that came out 10 years ago. We're bored of that trend and are going back to what we liked in the first place.

>source: someone that spent 2014 to now picking up 2009 era sweet pieces for cheap and is now watching the price of everything triple

>>10467201
You'll get your chance. Ill be putting it up for auction within the next couple of weeks.

>>10468281
>>10468320

Sweet is often the gateway for newbies; goths usually go gothic (instead of gothic lolita), classics could go vintage/shabby chic. Girls who like sweet lolita tend to get into sweet lolita because there isn't a normie/western alt equivalent to it.

So for some of this stuff we're not really talking girls just giving up and switching to another substyle, you have to factor in that some years there's just a lot more girls getting into sweet lolita (for the first time) than other years. Like the past couple AP threads (which wasn't even a thing back in 2016) there's some griping over what the prices for sweet lolita should be because some of the newer ones have never seen AP Celestial go for $1200 apparently indicates there's at least a some newbies that came into the hobby just recently.

>>10468376
And also to add to this, those of us that have been around for a while and flitted with the sweet classic trend that's now over, didn't necessarily sell our stuff - so there's more people who want these old OTT sweet era of dresses from the newbies just joining and oldfags coming back around

WTS Metamorphose secret laboratory in lavender. Whats it going for these days?

>>10468494
I don't have a good answer but this is a dream dress of mine and I am very up for buying it when you list it. As a guess off the top of my head probably 200-250?

I would pay above $300 for it.

>>10468494
I would pay above $300 for it.

>>10468675
300 for meta???

>>10468494
I bought it for 350, ill put it up for auction within the next week or so

>>10468697
Awesome, I'll look out for it. If you leave some contact info we can negotiate a deal if you're willing.

>>10468697
Awesome, I'll look out for it.

>>10468685

Don't underestimate Meta's sleeper hits, anon. They tend to be deadly sneak attacks bloodier than AP and next thing you know people people are bidding $500 on Dim Light or the unicorn print until Meta re-releases it in too many different cuts and the price comes down.

>>10468874
Dim light was cute af.

Some meta prints are worth it. Meta makes great quality dresses.

Magic princess with headbow AND tights? Good condition/ no damage

>>10469053
There are no tights with this release. Only OTKs. So what tights do you actually have?

>>10469054
Otks but they are tights material.

>>10469053
No idea why, but a damaged dress sold for 475 earlier this month on auction. It had stains and a hole in it

>>10469053
It wouldve been worth 200 like 3 months ago since it was a sale item and its kind of ugly, but since everyone has lost their goddamn minds maybe 400-500

>>10469053
Onegai sold the yellow with headbow for $400

>>10469061
Sale item?
This dress was a 2016 dress

>>10469072
Retard. It went on sale back then.

>>10469072
Yeah it was bargain bin crap in 2016 and it still is, but some retard newfag sweet zoomer will probably give you money for it

>>10469059
That was my listing - it was not stained, but there was a hole on the waist tie and the corset lace was missing. I also have no idea why it went so high, I expected ~200ish personally.
>>10469053
I started it at $50, if it helps.

AP sweet sugar in white/ivory? Have headdress and matching wrist cuffs. I havent seen this dress very often but its gorgeous in person

>>10467206
Came here to remind you that you posted

>yeah sure bud

When someone said they’d pay $350. And now people are paying above it

SEETHE and COPE poorfags

>>10469305
I have to say, I’m loving that poorfags are seething and saying things like

>N-nobody will actually pay x amount!

And then watching it happen. I’m glad things are getting more expensive so I can watch the absolute meltdowns of entitled fucks acting like what they want to buy should always remain in a price range they can afford and like anyone who could afford these prices is evil for actually doing it. People can buy whatever they want for the prices they want. And clearly if the market is rising back up like this, then it’s not just a small group of people.

Seeing all the people complaining about/saying things like

>this piece that just went for $800 isn’t worth it at all! it got bid up by tons of people but I refuse to believe it
>h-haha you’re paying $250 for a necklace? J-jokes on you!!!
>I-I’m going to shame all the people buying things that are now too expensive for me! It’s your fault I can’t afford what I want!
>Me and my friends are all laughing at people for paying these prices. W-we totally aren’t jealous or a-anything!

Makes for great laughs.

>>10469309
Honestly something is worth whatever someone one is willing to pay. That's supply and demand. Thats just the way the world works.

>>10469311
Exactly. But there are so many entitled poorfags crying about the prices of sweet now, like it’s owed to them that they should be able to afford it. I don’t care how much money someone has, but this attitude of “I can’t afford it so I’m going to be mad at whoever can and act like a bitch to them!” Is showing up in so many lolitas. It’s making me distance myself from some of the people I once thought were my friends.

>>10469314
Yeah i definitely feel that. If you can't buy it, then don't. You should have gotten it when it released if thats the case. Lolita ain't cheap especially for rare items.

>>10469305
Dude this auction just popped up today and it's already 350?

>>10469321
>>10469321
>>10469321

New thread

>>10469320
People said they’d pay that much ITT. Why are you acting shocked? I swear to god you poorfags are doing this on purpose to stir shit

>>10469323
It's shocking because I can't believe how many lolitas are so dumb and don't know how auctions work. Who the hell starts max bidding with 6 days left???

>>10469331
>implying thats everyone’s max bidding price


COPE harder poorfag.

>>10469333
ngl part of me wants to bid $1000 just to fuck with people. It’s not really any skin off my nose to do it but I already have it in pink. Wish it was in white or sax.

>>10469323
Nta but probably because gulls will say they'll pay x but then the max bid won't even be that high. This is probably the second time I've seen it be true

where did I ever imply that $350 was everyone's max bidding price?
It's anon's max bidding price from earlier in the thread, and it's stupid for anyone to start throwing bids out (max or not) with so much time left. Have lolitas never used ebay or y!a before? This is like bidding 101.

This has nothing to do with being poor or not and is just standard bidding practice/etiquette but go off

If you’d been paying attention to the auctions on lm lately you’d see that people are doing that to avoid others coming in and offering a seller an amount and ending the auction early

But I guess you’d have to have a brain to figure that out and you clearly don’t so

But if YOU had been paying attention you'd have seen that people are still doing that regardless so not like that really works now, does it?

I’ve only seen it happen once since the early bidding trend started, compared to the 10+ times in the two weeks leading up to it
