/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I've just checked the progress on my order and the tracking number has changed and now i can't see where my package is for the next 2 or 3 days. Why has this happened?

Just got my order, I'll post pics and reviews when I get out of the shower.

Do we have any dolly kei stores other than artka?

>>6347547
This is usually when the inland China shipping changes to international. It happened on mine too. Changed tracking numbers then no info for days. Then boom, in USA on USPS tracking.


I'm placing an order through Taobaoring tonight. I found a ton of awesome sunglasses that I can use for an upcoming photoshoot, and then I'm ordering those Vivienne "inspired" mens boots. I'm also throwing in some mixed gloves so I don't have to sew my own.

>>6347561
star socks and those cardigans please!

>>6347561

review of the teal skirt, pink shorts, fur boots, and striped cardi please?

>>6347561
ALL THOSE BUNNIES, HNGHGNHGNG, link to the shop that sells that jumper in the bottom left?

>>6347561
Pics of everything.

Here's everything I didn't take more pics of:

Brown/cream polka-dots socks: good

Teal dot see-through socks: good

Pink and white short tight things:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.3.17.81.638553&id=13938818675&
They don't really hide anything if I got up-skirted like I had hoped.

Rilakkuma cord ties
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=10906188666
These are pretty nice, I'm happy with them.

Lace coasters:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.4.28.17.96c84a&id=14483945539
Awesome. Great quality.

Rabbit tights: good
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=17939880285

Star and bow socks:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=17345132116
These are tiny, like child sizes. I'm an 8.5/25cm, and these are no where near fitting and do not stretch at all. If you have 20cm feet and would like a pair, let me know., I got a couple.

White rabbit socks: good
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.3.17.63.80b3ac&id=16260031146&

white and beige open socks: good

Cream flower canotier: good

purple long underwear: good
http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=19350148231

>>6348061
Here's the shoes. They're F21 quality. They came with a couple minor shoe insert things, but I'm going to get my own. Sizing was accurate. I'm 8.5 and got a 40.

>>6348070
Link to the shoes?

>>6348070
Oh and I forgot the link for the shoes:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=13289817568
Sorry they sold out, a lot of my items are like that unfortunately =( Maybe you can find something from the store now that you know the quality.

Shirt: good
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=17542760980

Cardigan
http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=19542296378
This cardigan is damn cute.

Skort
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=19333128011
Meh... Not very flattering. The fabric is a little weird.

got a cute/creepy freebie with my order. :D
one thing i hate about ordering from anywhere: i need to wash everything because otherwise I break out.

>>6348080
Shirt: good, heavy weight
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=16812140705

shorts:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1.0.152.dbce2e&id=15452801092
This is the second time I ordered from Elfsack and once again I an very happy with the quality and fit.I'm still losing weight though so I wonder if these will even fit come summer.

Cardigan:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=19974768092
I like this.

>>6348105
Shorts:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=14349717436
Good quality, but the sizing is totally off. I have a 94 hip so the Large I ordered should have been too big, but it's too small. Those shorts aren't zipped in the photo.

Shirt: good
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=16955891607

>>6348110
Coat:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=19877364541
This coat is so heavy and really nice. It was a higher priced item, but it was worth it. I'd rather pay a little extra for quality.

>>6348080
>>6348105
>>6348110
>>6348116
You look like a proper dork.

>>6348116
Shirt: good
http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?id=14838854386

Earmuffs:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=14678648888
The bows are sorta floppy, but I expected that. I actually really like these and am really happy with them.

Coat:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=16541147640
Elfsack again. I love this store. The coat may not really be my style, but it's made with really nice fabric and the lace isn't itchy.

>>6348105
fuck i need that shirt

>>6348125
Overall I'm pretty happy with my order. There were a few freebies, like a little sack of trinkets from the shop I got the lace coasters from, a lollipop from someplace that I tossed because I don't eat Taobao food, a small notepad, and a skull water bottle holder that was dirty and sticky that I threw out. No clue where it was from. I already foolishly made another order that only has a few things left to arrive at TaobaoNow, so I'll be making another post then.

>>6348120
Haha, yeah. I'll try to wear these things better in the future, but I was just trying to make outfits with what came in the box.

Does anyone know where GLW or Lockshop get their wigs from?

I'm pretty sure it's Taobao and I remember someone posting links a while back, but I forgot to save them!

>>6348136
You just gave me more reason to never buy from taobao. All that shit looks cheap and tacky.

>>6348061
I would love to take the socks off your hands... I'm like a 4 1/2 US shoe. Maybe it'd fit?

>>6348215
Wow, that'd probably fit. I have eight of the star socks (thought I'd try to make a few buck reselling(nope!)), and one of the bows. What would you like, where are you located, any how much would you like to offer?

>>6348150
SAME!

>>6348222
I'll take one of the bows and one of the star ones... I live in California. It says they're 1.60 each and you could ship them cheaply since they're tiny so like $5?

>>6348244
Can you do $6? There were other fees I'd like to make-up for.

>>6347532
best search term for 'Violin Purse'? I tried just the characters for 'violin' and 'purse' together but it didn't really bring up purses. Is there a better character for Purse or bag that relates to fashion instead of an actual violin case? Thanks! Maybe 'violin shapes' would be better even?

>>6348229
>>6348150
Why do I smell samefag...? It all looks very nice.

what's the coolest thing you've ever found on taobao? And if its still in stock post links!

>>6348262
Not to butt in but why are you trying to get more than a couple cents out of reselling them on a taobao thread? When I ordered similar socks they were like 5-20 grams... and then the service fee for $3 would be so little on top of that. You'll have better luck trying to rip someone off on eBay or something since we all know how much it's actually worth on here.

>>6348150

nah, it's pretty cute stuff, just modeled in an unflattering light/on someone 6 feet tall

>>6348290
Found it this morning. It's so horribly tacky but badass none the less.
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=17239703020

>>6348366

They're only asking for a dollar more.

>>6348150
Sweetie, if you buy from a regular department store in the mall, all your clothes look cheap and tacky but you're actually paying a pretty penny for cheap and tacky.

>>6348404

This.

Domestic Shipping + International Shipping + SS fees = that stuff adds up

Though I do agree that it's kind of dumb of her to sell them here, where everyone knows what she originally paid for them

>>6348404
I realize this. My point is they want to cover extra fees than the fees they originally paid. This is a taobao thread and we are all well aware of the original cost and about how much it weighs so if she's trying to make money off it, this is not the place.

>>6348366
With shipping from the shop to the SS, the SS to me, and the 10% fee, the socks cost more than $1.60 a piece, so $1.60 x 2 is $3.20 which only leaves $1.80 to cover the shipping to her, and the rest of the fees I mentioned. I think $1 should put me about even, and $3 a pair is still a really nice price for her.

>>6348378
5'6" and yeah, I have some of the worst lighting. I wonder if my overhead light even supports more than 20watts.

I've been browsing these dresses for hours now. Why aren't these more popular? They're insanely beautiful and the headdresses that come with them are the most elaborate shit I've ever seen.

>>6348473
I know! I saw them and just fall in love with them, can you share the link for that one?

>>6348473
I love things like these myself, but honestly, where would you even wear them without coming off as a total Asianophile/special snowflake? Unless you are wearing it to an event that requires you dress like that, like how people wear yukatas to Japan festivals.

Wearing a simple chongsam to a formal occasion is one thing but something all out like this just screams "look at meeeee".

>>6348499
*cheongsam, yukata

I can spell Asian words I promise orz

>>6348473
>satin
>shine
that looks so fucking cheap, ita weaboo

>>6348499
Well my friend and I are looking for some for gijinka cosplay. So I think they work really well for that, plus a lot of the designs seem to be BJD/MMORPG costumes.

You can also find more by using 汉 which means Han (I guess for Han Dynasty)

>>6348514
Oh you.

>>6348125
How warm are the earmuffs?

>>6348125
Ah! You bought your coat from Elfsack! I got one of their cardigans a while back and it's so delicate but it's made so well. Anyway, may I ask you how tall you are?

any favorite plus size stores? please? :(

i love you, thank you.

>>6347718
Thanks. It was just weird because it didn't happen to my two other orders. But nevermind, hopefully all is okay

Is there a term for 'oversized printed chiffon blouse' or a similar term that would get results similar to what this girl is wearing (oversized, button-up and with a collar)? I did a quick translation of 'printed chiffon blouse', but the results were very mixed and didn't have what I was looking for.
Thank you!

>>6349139
No problem! I'm trying to compile a spreadsheet of good plus-sized stores.

Actually I have a question, I submitted my order to Taobaoring and they've asked me a few questions. How do I respond? Should I just edit the order and then go to "confirm order"?

>>6349297
You can email them directly with your order number with your response.

i asked this right at the end of the last thread so i dont think many people saw it. does anyone know if there's a good search term for female-to-male 'crossdressing'? Since there's the silicone boobs on there I think there might be packers/shoe lifts/shit like that too.

yes i have seen styleboys.

>>6347532
Anyone have any experience dealing with crappy Shopping Services? I used taobaobuying (my third time with them, NO problems the first two orders) and after the first half of my order was shipped at the beginning of this month, they have almost ceased all communication... It took about 2 weeks for them to finally update me that all my items have arrived for the second part of my order, but now they are claiming their Paypal has been cancelled and that the only way I can pay for the shipment is via Western Union... I've emailed Paypal about it, but I doubt there's anything they can do, since it's been well over 45 days. Not really sure where to go with this. It's probably about 20 lbs worth of goods they supposedly have.

>>6349354
Sorry, I am taking into account the chinese holiday, it was 2 weeks after the holiday they finally answered my numerous emails.

Does anyone know the chinese term for Sock Suspenders/Garters. Not garterbelts but the elastic clips that hold up thigh high socks. I've been trying everything. I'd prefer to get them from taobao if possible rather than somewhere else.

>>6349333
Thank you!

So pretty much finalized my list for things I need for the big Sebastian What's Next photoshoot next month. Dressing 8 models, so trying to cover all bases with shades/gloves.... Also ordering my boots while I'm at it.

Has anyone bought craft/deco items?
I was looking into buying some clay and stuff but couldn't find much...
I was hoping to find a store that had many things I wanted so I could save on postage etc

I did find this store if anyone was interested:http://shop61684884.taobao.com/?spm=2013.1.w2.2.aWCmw5

>>6349537
I found this shop the other night, anon. I'm planning on ordering one of their clay package sets.
>http://shop58180155.taobao.com

>>6348749
I'm sure they could be warmer, but they're going to protect my ears from wind and cold exposure at least.

>>6348853
I'm 5'6". It's a really big coat.

>>6349544
Thanks Ill check it out :3

Hey guys, is it better in price to buy a few things or just make one huge order?

>>6349598
Not really sure but I can tell you that it's really best to get a lot of items from one shop because they only charge you once for the shipping to your shopping service.

Does anyone have the link to the mint brogues that someone reviewed in the last thread?

>>6349354
I placed an order/sent a payment and it took until a few days after for them to respond. Apparently, they had "problems with their network"? I just sent my last payment yesterday through Paypal, but I was told to send it to a different email address. Try emailing them again?

>>6349704
*paid before the holiday and took them a few days after it ended to respond.

>>6349134

Thank you so much!

does someone know where i can find toys in taobao?

my mom saw the package my boyfriend gave me and now she wants to buy toys or cute disney things for my cousins: she is 9 and he is 5.

i know that a lot of china made toys have high levels of toxic elements, so i'm looking for disney toys, and in general cute things for kids (for play or useful things). actually i don't know exactly what to look for
hope you anons help me, thank you.

>>6349775
Um, the same way you find anything else on taobao, by searching for it. If you just want toys in general, search 玩具 (toys), and add whatever qualifiers you want, 可爱 (cute), 迪士尼 (Disney), and like, sort by reputation (find 信用 with the arrow)

>>6349851
is there any way to know if a product is safe? (referring to toxicness and that stuff)
any chinese term that means.. like toxic free?

>>6349598
You're most likely better off buying quite a bit at once.
International shipping has a base fee of about $20-30 for .5kg (very light, maybe a blouse and shorts) then goes up a bit from there.
Depending on which shopping service you use, most of them don't give EMS discounts (40-50% off) until you're at 5kg (taobaoring is like that for sure, and I think a few others are)

And as >>6349630 said it is a good idea to try ti stick to as few shops as you can, domestic shipping isn't that much but it can add up fast.

Hope this helped ~

Sorry to pop this question up again, but it's gone unanswered the last time I asked it several threads ago, and it's more urgent this time.

My friend and I input a huge order (I'm estimating at around 4-5 kg) and I'd like to know how customs are in Ireland. the total came out to 200 something dollars, which would be probably 200-220 euros?

Anyways, if anyone had experience in Ireland or the UK, I'd love to hear. Thanks.

>>6349894
You could try googling your country's laws on customs, if you haven't already.

>>6349862
Probably not. If you don't want to risk it, don't buy from Taobao.

>>6349894
fyi, my last order was over 30 kg. Yours is in no means huge.

>>6349704
>>6349718
Can you tell me the paypal you sent your last payment to, and exactly the day please? I've been send mine to April's email address.

>>6349905

Already did. Depending which law I go into, it ranges from 45 - 150 euros.... wanted to know people's experience. I'd like to count on the Irish system being notoriously easygoing to get me through, but they might not be on customs.

>>6350326

Mother of god. What did you have in there? How'd you even get that into your country?

>>6350328
I sent it to pluto_tbb@hotmail.com early on the 24th (a little over 30 hours ago) and she confirmed that she received the payment about 20 hours ago. Still, I'd email her usual address to check before sending it. Good luck!

So apparently China Airmail has stopped accepting outgoing mail to the US, Europe and Australia for like a week because customs is way backed up and needs to catch up

So this might explain some delays

>>6349894
I don't know about Ireland but I've had many orders delivered to the UK.

Your SS may mark the package down automatically, or give you the option to value it. (Most of my packages come to me valued at $0.00!) If you get the chance mark it under $30/£20.

If you choose EMS it will go through customs, this takes a few days so it kind of counteracts the speed of EMS, but at least you can track it. If you choose this way don't have replicas of major brands in your package.

Airmail sometimes goes through customs sometimes not. Bigger, heavier packages will, but most SS's seem to love that yellow tape and wrap that thing up tight so customs wont open it. As long as the value's low enough you shouldn't have to worry about charges.
Bigger, heavier packages have taken much longer to deliver for me though, as in I thought they'd gone missing. It normally takes 9-10 days but the big ones may take 3 weeks +.

>>6349508
Links to all of the sunglasses please?

>>6350500

Thank you so much for explaining. I guess I'll see what happens then.

>>6350507
I will send links out later! I'm leaving my house!

>>6350326
holy shit your order weighed more than my younger brother (he's ten)
w-what on earth did you even get?

>>6349775
the toxicity thing is only an issue if the kids are really bad with putting stuff in their mouth... like my parents told me I grew out of chewing on stuff extremely fast so for all I know I had toys covered in lead paint and it was just never a problem.

However like other anon said there's no way in hell to find out, China gives zero shits... that's why I'll buy my dog sweaters on there but nothing for my cat, cats bite stuff when they play with it....

Do you guys know if it'd be illegal to resell taobao stuff? I'm not saying like brand-name knockoffs, just like tattoo tights and dresses.

>>6351474
plenty of people do that, if you look on tumblr, there is a girl who is selling those tights and those cat dress.

after over an hour of crunching search terms i finally found the right one for binder/compression vest
it's 'les tt 好' (les tt bra)
sharing it because wow that was difficult to find.

>>6349380
i would like to know too. i wanna make my own garter belts

>>6351486
I saw her, she's sold quite a lot of those dresses it seems, so I guess I'll give it a shot.

i posted this question in previous taobao threads but never got a chance to check for replies - are there shops that sell fashionable body harness/bondage stuff? I would like to work this type of stuff in daily wear. preferably in pastel colors? or if there is a search term?
also what exactly is candy stripper/zipper/katie/nadia? are they also pastel-fashion?
thank you so much.

>>6351510
Thank you for sharing!

>>6351559
Candy Stripper and Nadia are fashion brands that are popular right now among the girls you see in japanese street styles. I believe Katie is also a brand too, but I could be wrong because I don't see that much of it.
I wouldn't say they're specifically "pastel-fashion" because it depends on how the person wears it, but I think they usually fall more into the "creepy cute" category

Zipper is a popular japanese fashion magazine, as is VIVI, which will also bring results if you add them to your search terms.

>>6348399
THAT. IS. AMAZING!

The irony of me ordering the A-Morir knockoff is that this is for the Sebastian "What's Next" photoshoot, which Kerin Rose was this year's "visionary" for the hair styles. Her glasses (including this pair) were used for the theme of Nightshade Masquerade (the shades being a modern mask). I'm supposed to have 8 pairs of shades for the 8 models, and most of these I'm modifying with Swarovski's and studs and such, but I'm leaving the Margiela's & A-morirs untouched.

>>6351604
Katie is a fashion lable which likens it's looks to Hole era Courtney Love apparently (one of their dresses is called Miss World or something like that in reference to a Hole album). Overall, it's very girly, floofy, uses alot of soft pastel colours, and angelic themes but sometimes uses black and edgier motifs.

>>6351604
>>6351761
Thanks guys! I'm gonna try plugging those terms into taobao and see what i find.

Order placed! Woo! I decided not to throw my boots on the order because I really don't want them weighing down the package. I'll order them separately another time when I'm ordering shit 100% for myself. Just really needed to get all those shades and gloves.

>>6352264
is that from bhiner?

>>6352274
Taobaoring

>>6352275
Thanks for answering. Yes, its Taobaoring. My second order ever, and second order with TBR. They were great the first time.

>>6351510
Better search terms would be "束胸衣" (chest binding clothes) or " 塑胸 " or "les tt".
The "好" character doesn't mean bra; it just means "good" so you can leave that out to get more results.

>>6349350
Shoe lifts- "内增高鞋垫 "

Haven't been really successful in searching for female-male crossdressing stuff, I came across some silicone dicks though I don't think that's what you want...

Whilst looking around on Taobao i came across this plus size shop so i thought i'd post the link for you - you may already know of this shop

>http://hellopangniu.taobao.com/?spm=2013.1.w6236375.1.SLrOyM

>>6348080
For the skort, do you think it is worth buying? How is the fit over the hips? Is the elastic very stiff? You mentioned the fabric being wierd as well. What's wrong with it?

>First tabao order
>use Bhiner
>They screw me, order about 2.5 weeks before "fall festival" items not ready to ship until about 2 weeks after, no reply from customer service other than "be patient."

>Finally get items
>Measured self carefully, made sure all items were at least a cm bigger than my actual measurements
>Only bought from "fat" stores cuz I'm a ladies' US junior XL and 5'8", by taobao standards that means landwhale
>One item does not fucking fit at all and is actually closer to a size medium
>One dress fits, but buttons gap scandalously
>One top fits but only according to PT's definition
>Seems to be mostly shoulders and bust

Fuck this. I think I'm just going to stick to used clothing stores and etsy for cute clothes from now on.

Here's the two tops I ordered that don't fit.
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8280680465&spm=2014.12367366.0.0
This item was very thin sweater material, too. Not like a sweatshirt material, which is how it looks.

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=8822584675&spm=2014.12443903.0.0

Avoid this store if you're bigger.

On the plus side, the furry scarf thing from one top is detachable, so I can wear it with something else. This sucks, I needed some work clothes because I recently lost weight and was hoping to buy this stuff and some 5 for $25 tees and be done with it til I lose more weight.

All the skirts I ordered fit great, which is weird because I'm pear shaped.

So someone in some previous thread asked for horizontal striped panties.

I'm not sure if it ever got answered, but I stumbled upon this while looking for bloomers.

Hope it helps

>>6354195
Well yes, for garments to fit correctly, you want to have at least 3-4 cm between your measurements and the garment size.
So ya, only one cm bigger would be tight as hell.

>>6354195
I'm sorry it didn't work out for you. Try selling the stuff that didn't fit if you can! & At least you tried ordering from plus sized stores. I tell people on here all the time to not bother unless you're a generic tiny Asian or have the same body type/measurements as one (or do as you did and order plus). I'm sorry if I sound rude, and I know everyone wants cute clothes, but it's just not worth taking the risk of things not fitting. Just go to your local mall. I'm like 5'0 and I can't imagine girls over 5'3 wearing some of the stuff I order because it is so short. On the downside I can't find shit at my malls.

>>6354195
>Here's the two tops I ordered that don't fit.

>This item was very thin sweater material, too. Not like a sweatshirt material, which is how it looks.

Someone in the item review even said the item was poor quality and didn't look like the picture.

>>6354195

was that shop listed in the spreadsheet as a "fat" store? i thought it was for regular/petite asian chicks - ordered a skirt from them and it didn't half come up to my ass, even only being 5'4 :C

>>6349894
I'm in Ireland, have ordered suspiciously huge boxes from taobao 3 or 4 times and never paid any customs

Has anyone ordered underwear from Taobao? How was the sizing?
There are some adorable bras and panties there, but I'm really suspicious about the sizes. Someone said that their 80B bras would in fact be 70A-sized, and their M panties around XS. Is that true?

I'm talking about Yurop/Japan sizes here, what google gives me (I'm not sure):
70A -> 32AA
80B -> 36A

>>6354267
But a lot of the items fit really well.
4 cm is like an inch and a half, isn't it? I don't want anything to be too baggy, it makes me look worse, especially on top.
I think the issue is more that some places are putting the absolute max stretch of the item, like the dress that had huge gaps with the buttons, and some are putting the max size that fits, and some are putting the max stretch in more realistic terms- like how much it will stretch before the garment is deformed. I think some of these people are just grabbing the garment, pulling it in one direction while it's flat, and calling that the max stretch. The issue is that you don't know which seller is doing what, you know?

>>6354422
I haven't seen any stores on the taobao spreadsheet that sell the kind of clothes I want to buy. It's all really unflattering shit for big figures like skinny jeans and babydoll tops to be worn with leggings and neon hipster shit.

I like dull colors and vintage grunge hipster shit. And stuff that's designed to be baggy between the underbust and hips looks like shit on me.

That store has a lot of stuff that comes up when you use the "plus size channel" or whatever in search results. About half of it.

>>6354392
I kinda don't think it would be worth the effort to try to sell the three items that didn't fit. I've never sold anything online before, so no feedback, and the total I think I could reasonably get for all three is like $25. Thanks for being kind, though.

I tend to make horrific shopping decisions when buying items in physical stores, because of crappy selection and lack of much comparison shopping. I feel like I wasted my time if I don't at least buy SOMETHING, you know? I think I'll stick to the places I bought online before. It was nice to try taobao, but I don't think it would have been worth the hassle of waiting even if everything fit. Even hunting down items that were my size and that I liked was really hard.

>>6354545
Four that didn't fit, sorry.

One is a cheap dress that is too short, I think I may be able to cut off the spghetti straps and turn it into a skirt.

I'll probably try to mod the sweater into something else and see if I will lose enough weight to fit the two items that fit, but not well.

Sage because I've posted too much info.

>>6354475
I wear 70B and I'm usually a 32A. I find M sized underwear too tight sometimes on my hips, depends on the amount of stretch (88cm)

>>6354420

Sweet. I guess i'll just package everything as one then. Thanks for telling your experience!

Oh, darling, what a terrible store you picked. You have no experience with taobao so that's ok but... really. That store.

>everything has a max of 2 pictures of it
>pictured on a 5" 80lbs model
>or on a weird hanger
>no clear pictures of the items' shape, material and construction
>reviews warning you it doesn't look like the pictures

I understand you getting traumatized of taobao and never wanting to shop there again, but please, notice you made some terrible mistakes that anyone with a little experience on buying online wouldn't make.

Do you guys know where I can find more of this bag? ;_; I found it in one shop with bad reviews..

>>6355127
I have not seen many stores selling it but this one has a lot of reviews:

And this store only has one...

Thank you, I found that one aswell but I really like the pinkxblue ;_; That one only has the solid pink left haha.
Thank you for the term!

I'm looking for shops that carry cute dress, sorta like Ruis collection.

Any suggestions?

Okay, so I love these shoes (http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=13302956160)) but they don't come in black and/or my size (US 9)... can anyone recommend me some similar ones that actually work for me?

FAQ.
>I just found these [so and so] on taobao and I really like them. Does anyone know where I can find more?
>copy listing titles of similar items and things I like, and save common keywords to use to look more similar things up that way.

Add the keyword for plus size and see what comes up.

Its also possible that that shoe just wont come in your size, which is common

>>6355445
>>6355461
herp... meant to reply to you. its late and im sleepy :P enjoy!

>>6352569
if they're packers, then I do. I'm transgendered.

I posted earlier that I found the right search term for binders. Thanks for the shoe lift thing though! I was getting less results with what I was using.

>>6355462
Derp! Sorry!! Will do. Thanks.

>>6355407

try this shop, dey got some ruis-y stuff

http://520vivian.taobao.com/

Anybody know where I can find shorts like these that will fit 36~37" hips? Most of the ones I'm finding stretch only to 34".

>>6355643

Also looking for cute shoes in size 41? I wear a US9/EUR40 so something that will reliably fit that size. Every time I search plus size shoes on taobao I only get fug looking stuff... ;- ;

>>6355647
Because Chinese fashion doesn't cater to people with large feet. Why not buy local, at least you can try it on.

>>6355673

I'm well aware of that. Local shoes here in my size are also ugly or ridiculously expensive if they are cute.

>>6355679
Ignore that other anon, there are taobao sites with larger shoe sizes for females they are just not that common. Antaina comes to mind (I don't have a link maybe someone can help you with that).

>>6355643

I have these shorts, I got mine from Bobon21. They are not very large. However, they do have elastic at the back. Could you possibly let some of the elastic out to make them bigger?

If you'd like more info about the quality of the shorts, I can post a review on Tumblr for you.

>>6355693

Ooh, that sounds like a good idea. My largest my bum is around is 92cm, do you think that would work with the elastic let out?

I would love a review, please and thank you!

>>6348110
>>6348105
Woah, the oversized stuff actually looks oversized! I was planning on buying some of those shirts like yours but was afraid they'd be skin-tight on my gaijin 5'6" body but guess not!

Thanks a bunch for the review, and links!

>>6355697

It could do. I'll try mine on later and do some measuring and find out if they'd fit.

Quick query though; are you tall?

>>6355702

Thanks!

Average height, I'm 164cm, my torso is pretty long though so the strap lengths could be a problem too.

I found the shorts on bobon21, the elastic seems to go around the waist so I'm guessing that doesn't really help with the booty department.. Although the butt part seems like it might have enough fabric? My waist is 68cm.

>>6355706

That could be an issue, I'm about 157cm, give or take, and they tend to ride up a little on me. My friend, who is an inch or two taller than me couldn't wear them because they gave her a horrible wedgie. I found the straps too long at their longest, though, so they might fit you alright. I'll measure the straps for you.

Yeah, the elastic is at the waist. Although they're poofy, they're not particularly roomy on the inside, the poof is all in the lining if you get me.

>>6355710

Thanks again. I suppose I could also alter the straps to make them longer if necessary.

Ahh, I see what you mean. Not looking too good for me... I might as well and order them just to see what I can do since I'm ordering a few other things from Bobon anyway.

>>6355514
Unfortunately, I don't think they're packers. They seem more like sex toys than anything. Use "女扮男装" to see what I mean..This might come in handy for some other people though!
Still can't figure out the chinese term for packers.

This store has a fair number of shoes in your size and they are pretty good quality too.

Has anyone got Chess Story's Chocolate Party in L/XL? I'm pretty close to the measurements and want to know if it runs true to size.

Has anyone ordered from this shop?
http://mtbag.taobao.com/?spm=2013.1.4011204-8576766276.1.d85a2f

(Inb4 read the reviews, I have, but I'm curious if anyone here has ordered from them.)

Also - what does it mean when the evaluation details are higher than the transaction records? Doesn't that mean that more people are reviewing than ordering? Any help much appreciated.

>>6358900

haven't ordered from them, but transaction records are usually for the number of pieces sold in the last 30 days, while evaluation details are cumulative, so you could be seeing reviews from like a year ago for an item

>>6358912
Ohh I see! That makes a lot more sense, thank you anon.

Here's my recent order, can't wait for it to arrive

>>6359041
So many cute things!

Bit off topic but I'm confused and slightly paranoid over getting this question. I think it bugs me a little because:

>asks me if I'm Chinese, not if I speak Chinese
>is on Tumblr the SJW capitol of the internet
>I've seen people get jumped on for more crazier things

Probably worrying over nothing but it's the middle of the night and I'm getting Tumblr anonymous asking me about my race. Definitely not a normal happening.

just going through my cart for my first taobaoring order, and I've got a question.
On the items that have options which change the price, I notice taobaoring shows it as the most expensive price. Does that make the value at the bottom just an estimate? I mean, do they go through your order then send you the real price for you to pay?

>>6359136

I'd also like to know this, it's put me off ordering certain things. Do they amend the price so it corresponds to the choice you've made?

you ppl should start posting urls with your purchases pics. :[

>>6359136
These people need to make money and a 10% service fee (or less!) isn't much at all. They buy stuff at the VIP price or at the sales price but charge you the full amount. This is how they make money

Can anyone recommend any kigurumi taobao shops please

>>6354897
>>6354475

I agree with this Anon, their M sized panties can sometimes tend to be tight around the hips. Also, I hope you love push up bras, because that is a lot of what they sell from what I have noticed. My god, I don't have much for breasts (34B), and I just bought some bras because they were cute/cheap/had matching panties, but every time I wear them I feel like my boobs grew a cup size and I got a breast lift or something.

>>6359041
please! source on the blue dress, blue bracelet and owl bracelet? I can see faintly the shop name but not the url.

>>6354475
Does anyone have recommendations underwear stores? I recall that one amazing picture in a previous thread from the person who ordered like, fifty bras for a group order.

>>6359041
Could you please link the bag?

>>6359041
Ohh I see sweet mini! Are the tights from there too? If so, I'd love a review when you get them!

sauce on all those nice wigs? C:

Would Hello Kitty count as a famous international brand to taobaoring? Saw some cute stuff that would make great Christmas presents for my little cousins, but they're probably all replicas (Seeing as it's taobao), was just wondering if taobaoring is going to have a problem with it.

>>6359812
>Hello Kitty
>famous international brand

>>6359152
Too much hassle to dig everything up if there's a chance no one wanted to see it anyway. If you want to see where someone bought something, just ask.

Is taobaoring still unreliable? I keep hearing things about them not replying and such

>>6359850

>Hello Kitty is a global marketing phenomenon worth $5 billion a year
>Little girls all over the world have Hello Kitty bedspreads and lunchboxes
>the largest balloon in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is Hello Kitty

I think it's fair to say that Hello Kitty is famous internationally

>>6359850

>being condescending instead of answering a simple question
>picture related

I really wasn't sure whether it would be considered as such, that's why I asked.

>>6359922
Idk, I've been ordering from Taobaoring several times in the last month and everything's been fine. They reply fast enough to my emails, confirm my orders fast enough. I don't make huuuge orders, though. Less than/around 10 per order usually.

>>6359922
i made a new order (my second one) on friday and yesterday they confirm 8 items in stock. i think they're pretty fast.

>>6359943

Exactly. Where ever I've been in Europe Hello Kitty is the shit for little girls.

>>6359971
It would, it's a very well known brand. It's a household name lol.
>>6360000
>>6360001
Alrighty, thanks anons, I just wasn't too sure because around the holiday they seemed to bug out but I'm placing an order soon and I was planning on trying them still. I think I will.

Sorry for asking stuff so much lately haha, but what does the "thick section 80D" and "thin section 20D" mean? ;_; I can't seem to figure it out.. I guess it's the thickness of the tights, but I don't understand the 80D and 20D part.
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w3.6.6ci6S3&id=15534742126

>>6360129
It's probably den/denier? the thickness of the tights, the higher number the thicker tights.

>>6360129
i thought it was thickness and also size, so i ordered 80D yesterday (from the same store)

>>6360138
When you get them, can you review how they fit and the like?
>>6360135
I think so too. I think I just had a brainfart and got confused haha.

Taobaoring question.

My order was sent out last Monday, and the last thing their shipping information says is "Shipment Information Received".
It's now Sunday, and nothing has been updated..
I picked EMS and it said it would take 4-5 days..
I tried searching the tracking # on other sites but won't work.

>>6360370
They don't work on Sunday.

>>6359812
I ordered other characters from Sanrio before no problem.

>>6360386
I'm talking about the tracker..
It hasn't been updated since Tuesday.

>>6360398
my packages have been like this for both taobaoring and bhiner. my tracker didn't update for literally a week once, and then bam, it updated, and i received my package the very next day. it just seems like they're slow to update.

>>6360416
Hm.. And no other EMS tracking seems to be able to track it.
I assume it will arrive in the next 2 days.

>>6360398
That's not a taobaoring issue, that's an issue with the post. somebody might have easily forgotten to scan your package in at a certain point. What sites did you check on?

>>6360427
http://en.4px.cc/ Website .

"1018476912102300013
U.S.A.
2012-10-23 09:54:31
Shipment information received "

Is the only thing it says.

>>6360430
Check your post office website and ems tracking; however ems tracking will only record the parcel while it is in China.

>>6359041
could you link the backpack pleeease?

>>6360483
Not that anon, but I've been backpacks like it here:
http://mtbag.taobao.com/?spm=2013.1.4011204-8576766276.1.d85a2f

>>6360459
I think you're getting confused with registered mail. EMS will always have tracking information when it's in the sender's country and in the receiver's country.

>>6360614
Nope. Not EMS-tracking.

So I'm a little confused about the whole "famous international brand" thing. Is that only restricted to certain shopping services? I really want some Vivienne Westwood knock-offs.

>>6360830

only certain shopping services care about that

pruany doesnt

>>6360846
Awesome, thank you! I appreciate it. One step closer to my beautiful knock-offs.

Just did the 1st payment. 57dlls total + shipping to Mexico.

All the wigs are from here, normally I wouldn't trust buying such cheap wigs (even on Taobao I try to justify buying more 'reasonably priced' ones) but my friend personally ordered from this store and while they are indeed somewhat cheap wigs, they definitely seem worth their cheap prices. I'll give them a quick review when I get them.

>>6359922
I've currently got two seperate orders through Taobaoring atm, they are a bit slow but are still replying and keeping me updated.

>>6360129
Definitely denier. I usually don't buy many opaque stockings with less than 80D but sheer usually around 20 is good. I don't believe it has anything to do with the size. If a taobao store doesn't mention the recommended height and/or hip measurement, expect them to be fairly small sized (standard Chinese size)

>>6359041
source on the shoes please?

>>6361544
The best I can come up with is 透明 镂空蕾丝 外套 (transparent lace embroidery jacket). You could've done that, though.

First time ordering, I thought I'd order together with my friend.

However, I'm only getting some clothes for $30 to test it out and she suddenly has a fucking $500 order.

If she pays for her part of the shipping, will it be cheaper for me to ship together? Or should I go alone with airmail?

>>6362159
It'll most definitely be cheaper if you ship by yourself unless you bought coats and jazz that is close to the weight of her $500 order.

Man I'm starting to worry about customs. Using taobaoring, and they're claiming that they can mark the package down so it won't get stuck? How low is safe to go? My order will probably be close to 2000 yuan with shipping, haha..

Does anyone know a shop that sells spikes/studs in larger quantities, like 100 or more pieces?

>>6362305
Try "尖钉 100" (or whatever number you want)

Waaait, is Taobaoring's 45% off (after 5kg) off the total shipping price or off the rate? I thought it would off the total price but they're still charging me a huge price. Then when I went to the Chinese EMS site to check/calculate, it seems they're charging me shipping price without any discounts at all...

Has anyone else ever gotten the discount before?
Because ugh if this is really the price I won't be able to pay until next week sigh.

This stuff arrived at my friend's house on Friday and I'm picking it up this weekend. So exciting.

>>6361868

The sailor skirt and top please?

>>6362011
Sure!
Yeah, I was looking at wigs and sorted based on sales and that one came up, so we'll see! Most reviewers seem happy though so I'm not afraid at least. I paid 35￥ though because I got the care sets with them.

I got style 2 for the top but there are a couple others I think!

I've used taobao before, but I feel like I spent a little more than I should have done for the amount of stuff I bought.
Next to each item on taobao it says the price for domestic shipping, either Express or EMS. What is the difference between these two and will the shopping service pick the quicker option over the cheaper option?

>>6362533
Isn't the difference around 10 yuan? That's under two dollars.

>>6362533
Yeah, 10-20 yuan, but I was just wondering because if say I buy from 10 different shops, thats 10 lots of shipping so the difference will add up enough to be able to save 20 quid or so

>>6362094

Links for the polka dot skirt, plaid skirt, and white thigh highs, please?

>>6362533

I use Bhiner, and they charge EMS rate. My stuff for the most part arrived quickly. EMS rate tends to be 20-30 yuan depending on where the shop is located.

I know Taobaoring, however, charges domestic/express shipping, which is around 10 yuan cheaper per store. The downside is that Taobaoring does have a higher charge (8% according to their site). Bhiner's charge is 5%. I am not sure whether stuff arrives at Taobaoring more quickly or less quickly. You'll have to ask the others. For my experience with Bhiner (thus local EMS shipping), everything came within two weeks except for a pair of shorts that is holding up the whole order.

You don't get to choose the shipping unfortunately once you choose your SS, so it's up to you which service will be better.

Hope this helps.

You have to review those cosplay outfits because they look so good. Also where did you get the red glasses? I've been trying to find a pair for pic related.

>>6363834
Whoops, just noticed yours are half-frame glasses. Still, please review the costumes.

Thanks!

Anyone know what the term is for 'harlequin tights'? I got an ask on Tumblr asking for a keyword and I've tried everything from checkered/chess to diamond.

Pic related is the photo my SS took, so the colour's a bit odd. I probably won't buy from that store again, even though it is really cheap.

Sadly, it's sold out. But there's a lot of other nice stuff from the same store.

I just bought the crochet top so I don't have the link to the dress.

Thanks! Are you going to do a review for this batch?

Does anyone know the word for turtle-neck sweater? Or some links to some good ones they know of?

Question for Canadians/British Columbians:
I have a colossal order coming in from TaoBao Spree. Are we getting hit with customs more than usual these days? I've done massive orders before, and never been hit, but it's been a while since I last did one.

>>6364664
canadian here. the largest order i've had weighed 3.35kg, and i didn't get charged customs. i used EMS. i have a package coming now that's almost 5kg, and i'm also using EMS, so i'll let you know. it's not really colossal, but i'm guessing it's considered a somewhat bigger order.

don't use fedex though. customs always, seriously.

>>6364639
Yeah, I'll review whatever people ask for once I collect the items.

>>6364683
My order had to be split into two boxes due to larger items. Box 1 is 7.2 kg, and 2 is 0.92 kg. Shipping is EMS.

>>6364664

I have a 11kg order coming in the next month or so, but I'm using SAL and it's marked gift, so I likely won't have any troubles.

I had a 6kg package come in without any problems, but that was back in January of this year and also SAL I think.

>>6364722
how long does SAL take?

Does anyone know a store that has tons of random cabochon sets similar to pic? I really love mixed sets but can't seem to find any. Thanks!

i saw these on tumblr and ive tried searching up the shop from the watermark on the picture. however its hard to make out and i keep getting shop not found.
has anyone seen these around and maybe can link me to another store that has it? i have a feeling the store these are from is closed. thanks.

>>6365415
http://shop59286229.taobao.com/
they're probably from here

>>6365415
Original is from Syrup

>>6365430
And it would probably be easier to order them from the Japanese site, because
>>6365426
is a Taobao store that is a Japan shopping service, so price would be marked up item + EMS from Japan to China + shipping to your SS + fees + shipping to you

>>6364811

It's quoted to be 25-45 business days.

It generally arrives within a month for me.

Also, an 11kg order by SAL with insurance ended up being $115 CAN. EMS was easily double that.

Ive ignored all the threads about her but there just is no escape I guess

Alright, so I posted early about my package not updating on taobaoring.

So I logged onto my account again today..
This time, my tracking number is changed and the website to track it is different.
Of course the website doesn't work, so I have to go on other trackers to find out where my package is.

Only one website worked, and the last known place it said it was, is Beijing on Oct 26th.
4 days ago.
It's going on 7 days since It says it was shipped, and I'm getting really worried now. Especially since they said *~4-5 days for EMS~*

>>6365786
Of course I totally forgot to consider the fact there's a Hurricane going on, but I don't know where it's exactly flying..

But still..

>>6365786
A lot of people I know of are having troubles with packages from China right now. Can't quite remember what the problem was.
You don't need to be worried about Taobaoring at least, they are very reliable.

>>6365797
you can check on the postal service website of your country. At least on mine it shows if the package arrived or not.

>>6348150
More for me, I guess. Those posts were really helpful and now I feel better about getting some of the sweaters. Thanks for the pictures of everything, pictures anon!

>>6365805
Hmm.. I checked my usps website and it just says origin post is preparing for shipment.
Doesn't exactly say if its in USA or not.
Or if it's even at the post office.

>>6365852
That means it's on its way. Is this your first time with an online order from Asialand?

Can anyone recommend any candystripper/nadia/katie/jouetie-esque stores?

>>6365865
No not my first time, but it's my first time buying from Taobaoring.

Normally I never have a problem like this, with tracking not being updated.

So it's in the US or it's on it's way to the US?

>>6359041
Link to the shoes? Such a cute order.

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w2347946.7.HTcA5J&id=15854855021

Or

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w4.15.5jjlB9&id=17973592898

>>6366035
It actually has nothing to do with Taobaoring, you've been told this before, it is probably on it's way to the US.

It's normal for you to have "origin post preparing shipment" for a few days since they can't exactly scan the item in while up in the air.

>>6366078
Well I'm not exactly saying It's Taobaring's fault..
I just found it odd that they changed the tracking number half way through the shipping process.

Alright, I was just worried and all since I've never had this happen.

>>6366088
My very first time I taobao'd I had two tracking numbers for the package, so it's not totally out of left field (though I don't know why they do it sometimes but not others)

>>6366088
taobaoring and bhiner have done this to me. don't worry about it.

Does anyone know what the search term would be for pre teen stuff (Like for the age range 12-15). I tried girls, young girls (Oh god the horror) teenager and extra small but I'm still not getting the right results. Thanks.

I asked them to fix the price.

Also, read Taobaoring FAQ

>>6364811
i received my first order in 6 days using SAL. I don't know if it's because Peru and China have really good international agreements about exportation and importation but it was really awesome and cheaper than EMS.
It costed like 45 dollars and it was 2.7 kilos.

I've heard that the foxcherry hats are some kind of fuzzy material, not felt or wool, so I guess they'd be a little lighter.
Would that be really inefficient? I could totally think of like a million things to order, but it's not really in my budget right now.

Does anyone know where I can get these shoes, whether in physical stores, other online stores, or taobao?
I just can't seem to find any in that style in my city.
Much appreciated.

>>6368402

Hey thank you very much! That is exactly what I am looking for.

Just curious, what is your method of finding same items from other stores? Did you just search the title of the item? Search by a certain keywords?
I tried reverse image search before but it didn't work. I would love to know the method so that I can do this myself in the future (many of the items I want are sold out in certain stores)

>>6368796
I used 蕾丝开衫空调衫 钩花镂空罩衫夏针织衫, which is most of the title.

Generally, copy/paste the title and then delete the year, 女装 (female clothing), and then delete 'word sets' ie (春装, 夏, 新款, 女装) that aren't main descriptive words until you can see it come up in the search

anyone know the search term for painting printed stuff, like this skirt from romwe? pic related

i've tried the terms for renaissance, european, and painting, but no dice

Does anyone know where to find dresses with this shape? I'm not sure what search terms to use.

I'm looking at putting an order in through taobaoring, but when I add things to my cart it comes up as 0 for domestic delivery. What rate do they charge (EMS or Freight) and what section am I looking at on Taobao to get the price? It doesn't seem to say on their site where they are.

>>6368977

how's the quality at romwe in general?

>>6369607
you have to confirm your order. it's like 10 yuan (or 8 sometimes) for item. If you buy two or more items from the same store, taobaoring charges you for only one item.
Because of that, it's better buy more things from same store (also, if it's a good seller, he/she could sent you little gifts)

>>6369952
Ah ok thanks!

any suggestions for buying creepers? or should i just bite the bullet and go bodyline/TUK?

any idea where to i can get a jacket/coat like this style? with the cross over and buttons preferred black :3
or if anyone can tell what this style is called so i can have an easier time finding it.

>>6370458
A double breasted coat? Usually they have two rows of buttons though.

Stupid question, do they sell clothes for cats? Like the shirts they have for dogs, but some of those don't work right for cats. (The arms aren't compatible. The cat just steps out the neck hole.)
My cat doesn't care and I only put shirts on it for short periods of time. Girl or boy stuff is fine.
Nothing that attaches to the collar, though. That drives him crazy.
