/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I'm still waiting on my castleofbows order. I hope it comes in before valentines, I have such a cute coord planned.

>only post cosplay and EGL
>EGL

You dumb shit, was this board not expanded to J and K-fashion overall just last month?

>>6614021
Okay, lemme reiterate that:

Only Post stuff that won't make the mod/janitor delete my thread again.
Which means anything that was expanded upon, including J+K-Fashion. w/e

All from ebay:
> Wig
> Hair accessories
> Bow tie
> Poster
> Tony Moly lipstick
> Starry night umbrella
> Undated weekly planner
> Cat bag
> Film for 120 camera
> Marker flag stickers

>>6614111
What store are those little horns from?

>>6614111
How much was it in total?

Ebay
>lace
>2 blonde wigs
>thigh highs
All for my Catherine cosplay
>shirt
>skirt
For Fionna
Etsy
>backpack and hat
Also for Fionna

Also, some of my most very favourite perfume which I was lucky to find because it's discontinued. Related, because shouldn't we all smell nice in our fashion and cosplay.

>>6614255
Total without the poster and camera film (which were the most expensive parts), it was $63 including shipping worldwide. I don't know if it would be cheaper ordering it from taobao, but I'm scared of being hit with customs if I get a pack of everything at once from one person.

>>6614111
How much was the wig?

>>6614317
Thank you so much!!

Still waiting on these magazines to ship out. They're all in stock now, except for the cat bag which keeps getting pushed out. Stupid cat bag.

>>6614111
Source on umbrella please!

I have a Lucky Pack B from Innocent World that should be shipped off soon.

And then, based on previous years, IW will release their Oddment Packs in the next couple weeks. I'll buy that too.

Someone posted these OTKs a while back, and they looked awesome. So now I'm waiting for fromjapan to give me my second invoice to get them shipped to here. Too bad I can guarantee my legs are too fat for them. I'll keep them anyways.

Waiting on everything I need for Starfire's wig.

Kind of nervous since its a lot of expensive hair and it's my first time sewing wigs together..

>>6618730
Where is the link for that

>>6618730

how short is she to have her otks come up that high.....

Leather trench coat for spike. That's Spike the vampire not the dragon, the bounty hunter, or my dog.

>>6619088
Their recent tight/otk hybrids are suuuuper stretchy. I'm 6' 165bs and I have a pair that go 4-5 inches above the top of my knee caps

>black magic

all but 1-2 wigs for sakuracon and fanime

lucaille shipped them out right before they closed for cny, i'm so excited even tho they wont get here for like 2 weeks

Got my castle of bows order today.
Right on time for V-Day.
The earrings are clay, and not whip silicone, which is nice.

>>6619682
How much are these btw, and where can I get them?
I'm not totally in love with Lolita and lately I feel just too old, but I really adore these.

>>6618730

Hi that's me! I'm 5'1" and they're much longer than my usual Angelic Pretty otks! These are from the bookmark series and I wear them more with my non-lolita skirts.

I don't think they sell them anymore on the website but you could find them secondhand (egl_comm_sales, mbok/y!a, Facebook group, etc.).

Waiting on my huge haul of lolita stuff to come in ;; I spent too much this month!

Why, why did I get UPS shipping? Never again.

Waiting for a wig... AND MY FUCKEN KAITO BOOTS.
That apparently the post office attempted to deliver 12 days ago and are still at the sort facility atm.....

>>6614111
Just received my devil horns, cherry bow and headband. Quite happy with them!

>>6614605
Yesssss it finally shipped! Now to wait 1-3 weeks since I chose SAL shipping.

>>6620993
This looks like crap you could have bought at any claires/ardenes/pre teen girl store.

Waiting for this Saber wig to come right now.

A black classical puppets petticoat and a black IW violin style bag. I'll finally have a bell shaped petticoat and not just an A- line one. Woo

>>6622728
Also got my unicorn poster today!

I purchased some overalls and a mari
o ball cap (my job in the navy is a plumber so its even better)
Dunno how japan will take to a black mario wearing a gold boo chain

>>6619590
It got here and only a day late, pretty good considering we had a blizzard to deal with.

STILL waiting on the Lapin Agill skirt and Millefleurs skirt, and will be for a while because I had them shipped by surface mail. Just got invoiced for the JetJ skirt and the Irregular Choice shoes should be on their way, fuck yes.

Bought my first outfit from F+F and some shoes from Bodyline.

I'm so excited. Please make it to me safely, little order ;_;

>>6623601
That's mean, I think anon's order is cute.

>>6626415
I.. guess that's not an anon. Derp.

>>6626410
WHERE ARE THOSE TIGHTS FROM

>pls dont say taobao ;_;

>>6626423
I believe they're from Syrup

>>6626435
link? i searched syrup tights and didnt find anything

>>6626410
Oh god! That skirt! Tell me where it's from!

>>6626410
>that feel when I could tell just from your thumbnail that most of your order is from axes femme because half my time on tumblr is spent queuing more photos for my axes femme blog

Super jelly though, especially of the skirt!

>>6626464
I'm afraid I don't have a link. I've only ever seen them in outfit rundowns and catalogues online. I know that they're a Japanese brand, but can't tell you if they even have a webshop.

>>6626470
thank you

>>6626472
Some googling with "syrup. タイツ" found this:
http://www.garitto.com/shop/69629

>>6626481
>http://www.garitto.com/shop/69629
Anon,you are truly the best!

>>6626485
Happy to be of help! Enjoy your fancy new tights!

>>6626410
where 2 cop those skinny jeans?

>>6626410
everything is from axes femme except the tights, which are syrup :3

>>6627081
also on my phone but syrup does have a webshop. try the katakana maybe, or googling syrup jp

i bought a parasol almost two weeks ago and nothing yet D: i did contact the seller yesterday to ask where it was and haven't heard back from her yet, and she has positive feedback from other people from fairly recently, so...
it's also coming from overseas so i'm a little more lenient about shipping time but damn it i want to know if it was shipped yet at all.

>>6626410
those shoes, fffff

>>6626481
>>6627083
ope, there's actually a link to the main webshop through that link

Out for delivery now, can't wait! I've been running downstairs to check if Canada Post is here every half hour.

These.

My Victorian Maiden raincoat just arrived. SO MUCH LOVE.

>>6618715
I keep checking hoping that they will be announced. *sigh* soon... I hope.

>>6627977
Where did you get those and how can I get them? I love the "fabulous" dog

>>6628145
sugarbunnyshop.com

I absolutely love the fabulous dog too.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310528648509

Just bought this for my Elisabeth cosplay. I'm pretty excited for it and I'll be starting on making the dress sometime next week.

supah excite

>>6627977
That dog blows those ponies out of the water.

Finally got the invoice for this after two weeks, hopefully IW won't take as long to get it shipped out! Ahh, so excited.

>>6614605
Where did you get the cat bag froooooooom...I must know!

I just ordered a black twin tail wig and AAPT Vampire Rose rocks in black x blue

I'm currently awaiting a pair of AP tea parties in pink, a pair of Bodyline heels in brown and a brooch. I'm also awaiting my girlfriend's Valentine's gift and an Okami t-shirt.

>>6628802
Diff. anon, but it's from ahcahcum muchacha newest mook.

I'm waiting for the remaining 3 soulgems (I already own homura's and mami's),an old-school VM OP,Gothic Lolita Bibles,my first bjd "Chaos" and stuff for him.
His eyes already arrived and they are great!

>>6628414
Aw yeah,Sanhora.
Will you cosplay the young or the adult version?

>>6626183
link to the first skirt?

>>6628881
Where did you get those soul gems? They look pretty decent.

>>6629340
http://openuser.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/user/madomagi55555

Yes,there is even a build in LED-lamp,so they can glow like in the anime.
And they look exactly like in the picture.

>>6629337
I don't know if it's buyable new since I got it secondhand, but it was from Violet Blue on Rakuten. They seem to receive a decent amount of Lapin Agill

Awaiting some make-up and stuff.
Etude House handcream and blush and some Tonymoly mascara, pressed powder and face cream.
Has anybody ever used Tonymoly mascara before? If so, how good is it?

Also still awaiting everything from here. >>6628819

>>6628802
>>6628821
I'm the anon who bought the cat bag, I got it from CDJapan, and last time I checked, you could still order one.

>>6628881
I'll be cosplaying adult Elisabeth. I'm honestly so hyped for this that I watched the live concert 5+ times in the past couple days.

Love the BJD, by the way. I don't own one but I've always been fawning over them since I was a youngin'.

My shopping service shipped it off today. This is the most excited I've been for makeup.

>>6630756
what is everything? i want that nail polish

>>6631214

Not anon, but it's Etude House.

>>6630756

Ooh, I'm waiting for a bunch of stuff from the Princess Etoinette line too.

Sorry no pic because my computer is down...

Have ordered of Ebay:
> Midorima hug pillow, Murasakibara Teiko jersey, Akashi jersey

Thinking of ordering from Lucaille:
> Kent from Amnesia wig, Lightning from FFXIII wig, medium length red wig, long light blond wig, and a short blue wig.
Maybe next month I'll order my wigs...They haven't shown up on their english site yet, not sure if they will ether...

>>6631214
Everything is Etude House, but the cat blusher is from Holika Holika.

The nail polishes, chocolate eyeshadow, and makeup base are all sold out on the gmarket official store, but luckily my shopping service was able to find everything and it was a lot cheaper than ebay and she's sending me all the samples too! I'm really curious what I got.

>>6631440
What did you buy? I read that the blush was a bit sheer, but I'm pale so I didn't want anything too dark. The lipsticks have such cute packaging!

>>6632066

I fucking love Etude House. I only bought a couple of things this time, though; some blush and some hand cream.

The place I buy from doesn't stock much, so I always miss out on the really cute stuff; would you mind recommending a shopping service to me? I wasn't sure where to begin.

>>6627088
not that anyone cares but i finally got a tracking number!

>>6632795
The reviews all look so good and the prices are affordable, so I'm hopeful. What other products have you tried?

The shopping service I used is new, I found her advertisement on tumblr. She had a lot of positive feedback through lolita sales so I was willing to give it a shot. Her lj name is griffith.

Just bought two pairs of these for my girlfriend and I's Shingeki no Kyojin (attack on titan) cosplay.

Despite the fact these boots were in style all winter and fall we scoured the malls for good deals and could only find anything in size 8 and below. She's a size 10 and I'm a 7.5 and we needed to match, it was really frustrating and I'm so happy to have finally found something.

It also makes me bitter than 90% of US companies ship free within the US with great prices and to have anything shipped WITHIN Canada they charge you up the ass AND you pay double for the same damn boots despite our dollar being stronger.

bump

>>6632795

Sasa sells Etude House.
I've bought from them loads of times.
http://www.sasa.com/SasaWeb/eng/product/searchKeyword.jspa?pn=1&sp=0&ep=-1&qs=etude&brandId=&x=0&y=0

Wigs for now. One 40" wig for from Epic Cosplay (I now refuse to buy long wigs from anywhere else, these things are insanely hard to tangle) and a hot pink wig from eBay to harvest wefts from (character has hot pink streaks and a lot of hair, a wig was cheaper than three packs of extensions).

Waiting for Arda to have a sale so I can buy a chibi and some wefts. Still 3 months until my con, so I have time to wait.

>>6630369
diff anon, but you can also buy from kinokuniya if you live in USA to save on shipping costs.

First time trying cloth. I live with my parents and I haven't figured out how I'm going to wash these yet...

>>6637177
That's uh...something.

In addition to my make-up and shoes and stuff from earlier, I'm now also awaiting some Meta OTKs and a fawn fur collar. I also have two Taobao orders waiting for Taobaoring to move their ass and sort them out.

>>6632839
>>6635857

Thanks guys! If anybody cares, I'll be reviewing all the stuff I got on my blog once it arrives. I'll stick a link in this thread.

>>6637177
....daipers? Hand wash is the only way.

Waiting on my maid uniform in red. I have two black and white uniforms and decided to change it up and get a colored one.

>>6637351
I have this in green~ It's nice.

>>6637351

That's so cute! I really wanted it in red, but I heard it's insanely short and decided against it.

>>6637351
that'll look so cute! i'm torn between that one and #448. will you be posting a review when you get it?

>>6637358
it's really not, but I'm 5'3". its our maid cafe's official uniform and it hit me just a little above the knee :x

>>6637351
Ugh I want that in brown so bad, but I'm 5'9".

>>6637353
How true to size did it run?

Finally got my Archimedes for my medic cosplay, now I just need to make a strap on my lab coat for him to sit on my shoulder

>>6639127
yes good good, the world needs more medic cosplayers

Nothing too interesting, I just wanted to bump the thread.

Ordered: h.naoto frill dress, gold shoes of heel-less awesome
Waiting on: Meta Melody cat in pink, cat themed jewellery to go with the black skirt version of the same print.
Recently received: Victorian Maiden raincoat (NWT for half the reserve price, thanks ebay + bad photos!), 2 cutsews

I just realized that with the resent improvement in the uds to yen paying in yen with paypal gives me a better rate than the bodyline's site. I just ordered a maid outfit for less than 53 with shipping to the usa. The usd asking price was 53 before shipping. I'm not sure if anyone else had posted about doing this before so i thought i'd send on the message to anyone interested.

I'm going as end of episode 12 of the anime/chapter 23 of the manga Yuno with the bag of skulls.
I've taken to sitting in the front room of my house so I can hear the mailman's bike. Can't wait.

>>6628133

Link? Picture?

>>6644463

>>6640500
see here. That was the ebay seller's picture, I can take more if you really want to see it but I think it's just a previous release of the one they had up for reserve recently.

Waiting for all this, not all of it is for me though. My friends having bank trouble so she asked me to buy it for her, she gave me the money first.

>For me: Midorima Pillow, Sinbad wig, Teiko Jersey
>Friend stuff: Akashi wig + Jersey and that Model frog thing from sgt frog

can someone tell me if taobaoseek is reliable?

>>6645324

Where did you order the pillow?!

I BOUGHT THIS MOEFUL MOTHERFUCKER

just this

bamp

not /cgl/ related, but Im expecting some more dollyhair for a commission, cookies from my client, and a G3 Rarity that I accidentally won.

>>6645370
WHAT IS THAT

>>6646323
This year's Nendoroid Snow Miku.

>>6645370
OMG! SO CUTE!

bump\

My shirt, BL shoes and collar all came this week. My girlfriend's Valentine's gift and part of her birthday gift also arrived.

Still awaiting my make-up, tea parties, a pair of OTKs and a few other bits and pieces.

>>6648013
Where'd you get the collar from?

>>6648187

Bought it secondhand, it's the H&M one from a year or two ago.

A new VM dress (and lord FINALLY I found a VM dress that isn't long on me!), and several new pairs of tights.

Possibly also pic related very soon.

>>6623934
Still waiting on this wig... has anyone had experience with how long l-email / wig-supplier typically takes to ship via economy shipping?

>>6648194
I thought that was an eyepatch..

>>6648189
Ah shit, I've always wanted a collar like that. Thanks though!

>>6648406
Haha no but admittedly the shape would make a cool one..

bump

>>6648949

Don't give up, anon, they do pop up here and there on the sales comms and eBay.

Thing is, the collar itself cost like £8 brand new. If you're buying from a lolita, expect to pay double that; for some reason people always jack up the prices of that particular collar. I guess it's just because fawn fur tippets are just so expensive from everywhere but Taobao.

If you can find it on eBay, you might get lucky like me and get it for only a couple of quid shipped. Just keep your eyes peeled!

>>6644447
AHHHHH DAT CAT BAG, please post pics of it opened!!!

Afternoon Tea and Alice's World arrived this morning. Mmmmn. Delicious Sakizo goodness.

>>6644447

This poorfag is really enjoying vicariously shopping through you girls
You all made beautiful appropriately sized orders and I want to lick them

On a business trip in Texas but hopefully my lucy wig will be there when I get home~

>>6650767
Here's a pic of the cat bag open! The picture doesn't really do it justice, though. To be honest,I think the best part of the gift box was the scarf.

>>6653095
This is the scarf. I just love the expression on the cats' faces.

There's too many things I'm buying from taobao, but currently waiting for my Stained Glass JSK from Haenuli, and a stars rainbow galaxy seifuku.
My order got processed quickly so I managed to get my size. I'm so happy I found a cute uniform that isn't bodyline/can fit my 5'8" frame.

Waiting for my wig whoop whoop

>>6614111
I just got the umbrella, so everything received!
I think the best thing I got was the umbrella, it's just so cute, and the quality was pretty good.

>>6653844
So cute! Where is it from?

My green A/P "End of Immortal Eden" bonnet from Closet Child gas been in customs for three days. T____T

But once it gets out it should only take a day to get to my house because I live very near where the imports come through. Woo~

Also waiting on some fabric for a cosplay commission, but that's not very exciting.

>>6630414
I know how you feel,that was also my reaction when I watched them for the first time.
Oh God,all the tears i've shed.

Thank you,it was a looong dream of mine to get him. And today he's finally shipped.

And you? Did your wig arrive?

>>6653869
I got it here:
http://www.ebay.com/itm/110964077604?ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1438.l2649

Waiting for a heat gun so I can show those polymer chains who is boss and kick them into armour.

dress should be here tomorrow
ahhhh can't wait

burando first timer

>>6654275
Obviously a joke coming from you... your first brand piece??

>>6654298
yes, my first brand piece. whats so funny about it?

Atelier Pierrot's Aria Bustle OP in Navy and Black

Got it NWT on auction, not from Tokyo Rebel, but I can't find a decent photo of it from anyone else. The original stock photos suuuuuck.

>>6653103
do you have a link to this?

Can I post these if I'm going to wear them in a cute jfashion way?

>>6654488
I wore it too a wedding. It's a really nice dress. A lot of people complain about it being polyester but it's very high quality and soft. It's more of a deeper blue than a purple and the shirring will fit up to a 110 cm bust. If you have big breasts there will be some cleavage, but I still love it anyway.

>>6654587
They're at http://mianyangrouchuanguo.taobao.com/..

You can also look up "stars rainbow taobao" and they are the first result.

>>6654601
I'm looking forward to getting it. I've really wanted more Atelier Pierrot in my wardrobe.

>>6626410

Ooh, where's the skirt from? All of it is sooo cute A+ choices anon

>>6654488
All Atelier Pierrot stock photos suck.

Mostly Taobao, a little bit of sales comm stuff. SO excited!

I hope you have teeny boobs because I own that jsk from surface spell and the bust 'pocket' is laughable.

>>6657645
I do

>>6657659
ah ok good because it's rather high on the chest and not very wide (it's like they built in a tiny boob loaf holder). I have to wear a cardi or something to hide the fit at the top. Just a poor choice in design lol. I am glad you won't have that problem though!

Alright, /cgl/, where do y'all get your dakimakura from? I've been promising myself one for a while and keep making the excuse that I wont know where to get it from.

To keep it related: I'm waiting on a Tiger&Bunny calendar.

Last few paychecks.

> 2 pairs of DreamV shoes
> AP Candy Fun Fair OTKs and ring
> Lady Sloth Skirt
> SS Tea Parties (should be here tomorrow)
> Melty Dream mini skirt and bows.

>>6654007
It did! Sorry for the late reply. Anyway, it looks and feels amazing! The fibers are amazingly soft and the color is a nice milky blonde. I'll definitely be ordering from them again.

When is your BJD expected to arrive?

I just got a pair of AP Tea Parties and a pair of Meta OTKs. Awaiting a brooch.

Atelier Pierrot Aria OP just arrived and FedEx should be here any time now with my Coastal Scents order. Going to go back to spazzing over the OP and petting the soft, soft lace. Mmmmn.

so glad to finally have these two in my collection, and for additional reference material for upcoming costumes

Just arrived. The bolero is even cuter than expected!

probably the best place to ask, but how does from japan works? I wanted to buy a bunch of chocolate molds from amazon.jp but I'm not sure about how much domestic shipping fee works on that. Anybody had bought from amazon using them?

>>6628680
Hnng, this just arrived today, I love it so much, I can't wait to wear it outside. Also I avoided customs yet again, I thought for sure this had to be the time I'd finally get caught. But nope. I am the Customs Wizard.

Just some black tights with silver stars for a new co-ord and a half yard of white faux fur to repair a cosplay.
Tights should be here by Friday or next week. The fur should be here a tad ways down but before April 14 which is good.

>buying cosplay

Boots haven't shipped yet.
But everything else should be here by next week.

>>6675086
SHIT!
Forgot picture.

Ordered the faux fur for my book!Hiccup's vest and the armature for the book!Toothless and baby Nadder puppets I'm hoping to make. They'll be for SDCC, so once they come in they're just going in the closet until I finish my Fanime stuff.

how is a calendar related to cosplay/jfash/egl

>>6675091
Let me know how the ghostcos wig works out

My lenses came today! I'm a little disappointed with the violet (Angelic Bambi Eye Violet), they blend right into my eyes and from a distance they still look blue. But the blue (Super Pinky Blue) are really cool and intense! I love them a lot.

>>6675380
which lenses are in your picture?

Waiting on 3 wigs from eBay. Purple for Psylocke, Pink for Krieger's girlfriend, and green for Duela Dent.

Holy fuck you are dumb.

>>6675091
Report back whether the Tao is any decent?

Got this a few days ago. Too lazy to take my own picture.

>>6675680
Looks amazing. Where'd you get it from?

>>6653095
i saw it two weeks ago and loved it. then i saw the price and the size of it. i thought it was a handbag (like that cat face bag from muchacha achachumu) but i saw pics and it was pure disappointed.

>>6675357
Will do

>>6675677
Sure thing, though I'm kinda worried about it. The site said the normal duration for making at costume was 7-14 days. Yet I ordered min not even five days ago and I've already got a shipping notice.

>>6675729

Would you say the end product was worth the price?

>>6675739
Yeah I'd say so. The back of the wings don't look as smooth as the rest of the wand (you can't tell unless you look at it semi-close) but the outside that shows and the entire base of the wand looks cool.

It's extremely light weight (a tiny bit top heavy but not majorly) and seems durable.

>>6675750
Can I ask how the wings are connected? I seriously can't see any connection in the photo and feel really dumb/mind blown.

>>6677224
A screw. The red gem part covers that screw. The wings have a hole in it to put the screw then you put the red part and glue it or something.

Sorry for the shitty webcam pic. Too lazy to bust out my camera.

This is on it's way for my friends Pepper Pots cosplay.

>>6680296
What version/outfit is your friend doing?

(Sorry, I'm a huge Pepper fan and I get all happy when I see people cosplaying her.)

>>6675700
OP of that post here, that's not even me, but christ girly reread the post. Slowly.

>>6680315
She's doing the Iron Man Armored Adventures Version.

>>6653844
oh my gosh! I need this in my life.

>>6662684
No problem.
That's nice to hear! I always wondered how the texture of their wigs is,since I heard nice things about this store before.
It's okay if you don't want to,but could you take a photo of it? I'm really curious how it actually looks.

He seems to arrive tomorrow and I'm so damn exited,I could explode! All his other stuff is already here.

>>6648390
I've purchased a few wigs from l-email, and they always take their sweet time when it comes to shipping. I wouldn't worry too much about it; despite taking a while to receive what I ordered, the wig was always delivered.

Received word yesterday that this was shipped. Mary Magdalene, 2004 release of Alexia (fleur) OP in ivory.

I also received two Arda wigs in the mail last week, just barely in time for ECCC.

Ugh, had an offbrand lolita skirt arrive today from eBay and it's unwearable. The side seam has split at the bottom and the top, and the elastic of the waistband is out.

I've asked for either a full refund (and return), or a partial refund to cover the costs of repairs, but it's really annoying me that due to the fault of the seller (the faults weren't listed and I wouldn't have bid if they had been) I have to pay to post the skirt back to him.

Sorry for the bitching, /cgl/, it's just...gdi I'm a student and this was my treat to myself and I've actually been stressing about losing the £2.20 to post it back.

>>6680597
If it's a faulty item they should really be paying the return costs. Ask them to do it.

Waiting on Haenuli Stained Glass and I can barely contain myself!

>>6680586
Ah, this is beautiful! Secondhand or new?

>>6680365
Sweet! Are you going to do a group?

>>6680725
My friend actually DOES want to do a group, the only problem is I need to DL the show and research myself a character to cosplay. I have a binder and COULD do a male, but I'd like to do a chick for once. haha

>>6680634

Second hand off Yahoo!Japan auctions. According to the item description and the pictures, though, it's been barely worn or touched.
I've been in love with this dress for around 7 years, words cannot express my excitement.

>>6675677
Taokaka was rushed and is terrible. Like Milanoo level.
It's very easy to tell it was rushed.

Homura on the other hand is decent. A tad big and the skirt is too long, but it works.

>>6681083
Eugh.... that's a shame.

Bought a bunch of stuff from DreamV; it actually came today, but I don't have any pictures of it besides the initial unboxing. Everything is pretty good quality for the price; comparable price/quality-wise to Forever21 and H&M. My biggest issue was that I am apparently either really bad at measuring myself, or the measurements they list are off since some things were a bit too big for me (I have an 87cm bust, 66cm waist, and 90cm hips; everything I bought that was 1-2 cm bigger than my measurements are HUGE and things that are 1-2 cm under my measurements fit great). Out of 19 things, I'm only considering about trying to sell 3-4 items, so not too shabby since I bought all this stuff basically blind.

>>6613994
I've actually seen this mail box in person. It's in Hawaii. in the city of Kona.

Ordered: MMM Holy Stained Glass JSK (confusingly it's been ordered but SS hasn't charged me yet??)
Received: AATP VR JSK

>>6681417

My neighbors had an almost identical one when I lived in Miami. Someone else on our street had a shark.

Has anyone had experience with this site?

http://au.strawberrynet.com/

The site looks a little too flashy, so makes me suspicious.

>>6681163
Cute sweater.

>>6681891
>http://au.strawberrynet.com/

Strawberrynet has been a trusted site for like what, 10 years now??
I've ordered from them loads of times.

>>6681899
Thanks. I don't do online shopping much, so I don't know of the better places.

>>6680515
Here you go. I've yet to style it since work had me some crazy overnight shifts, changing out the department's structures and all that. Glad to hear that all your things are coming in. That feeling of waiting for an item a day away is murderous.

Just kinda threw it on. I honestly wish I had a camera besides a webcam. Anyway, like I said, the wig is really nice. Brushing through it is like a dream. Sent my heart a-flutterin'. It definitely needs some cut and styling done to it, but it's still great. Gotta figure out what exactly I should do with the strands of hair towards the back, but I think I'm gonna wait til I make the headpiece before doing anything with those and the back half.

>>6680619

They aren't bound to by eBay or Paypal's policies, but I might email the companies and complain about their policies. The seller's also not being particularly helpful so I just want to get it done with.

My first AP binge. The skirt and dresses are NWT which is pretty amazing since they are 2009 prints! (SC though may be the re-released, not sure yet). Still waiting for them to get to me.

Adding to the things that still need to get to me, Lapin Agill skirt, Millefleurs skirt, Jane Marple JSK, IW JSK, Millefleurs OP, IW JSK. The shoes just came in the mail fuck yerr but I can't walk from the car to fucking Chipotle without wobbling because I'm a loser. I'm worried about the Jane Marple JSK since the seller on Y!auctions Japan had a lot of negative feedback, but recently it had been positive to I took the gamble. The lace IW jsk I bought at the same time from another seller and had been qued for packaging five days ago, so I hope it gets to me in time.

Everyone else except the Millefleurs OP in in transit via surface mail, so fuck I'm waiting so long.

>>6682715
Anon, your taste is absolutely impeccable, christ. I'd love to see coords.

Where are the shoes from? Not that I could ever walk in them, but..

>>6682684
>>6682715
I love the contrast between these two posts haha

>>6682860
Thanks! The shoes are from Nasty Gal. They're on sale for fucking cheap at the moment.

>>6682715
May I ask where you got these shoes? Do you have the link still?

>>6682913

Top row: Antique Beast stuff (Let me know if you guys want links)
Bottom row: Isabel OP in grey/short, Carol Crown Embroidered Velveteen Ribbon Head Bow in chocolat and bordeaux.

I'm hoping the Antique Beast order arrives before this meetup I'm going to in 2 weeks.

back to page 1 we go

Madoka wig from Lucialle, some ribbon trim, and some boning. All for Madoka

>>6682986
Dem chokers

>>6682986
Antique Beast doesn't ship overseas, right? You need a SS?

I really love their accessories, but somehow I just never think to go buy from them when I have the cash...

>>6684811
Nope, you can offer direct. Just email them if you have questions.

>>6684842
Oh wow, I didn't know they had English-speaking staff. Thanks for the tip, anon!

>>6684854
Sure, that's how i found out after Google didn't help. Just emailed them off contact page and they answered that they take international. However i didn't have time to ask order process so i can't help you with specifics!

>>6684944
They take PayPal only and will only send EMS packages, from their FAQ page.

A magnetic drywipe board, a cute dress and my Geo Nudy Blues.

>>6682715
Whoo, the Jane Marple jsk got to the SS so that and the lace IW are getting shipped out together. Hopefully it doesn't come with stains and shit since there was complaints about that in the negative feedback the seller got...

>>6684434
I was very tempted to get the matching choker in the capelet pic! But alas, I had to restrain myself.

>>6684811
As anons >>6684842
>>6684948
mentioned, they ship internationally and take Paypal as their payment method.

If you are familiar with Closet Child and Usagiyouhinten's shopping cart system then you shouldn't have a problem with with Antique Beast's since they use the same software. The only difference is that Antique Beast's form actually has a country field but the countries are in Japanese. I used Chrome's Google Translate extension to help me find my country in the list.

Unlike Closet Child's payment screen, you do have to click on the Paypal button to go through to pay. It should be straight forward from there.

They take orders on a limited basis - I think they're open once a month or every two. One the shop's home page, in the right hand column towards the bottom you can sign up for their newsletter (under Mail Magazine). They send an email out whenever they are open for orders.

And finally, if you're ordering clothes from them you have the option of increasing or decreasing measurements by 5cm for an extra fee. Pretty handy considering their garments are notoriously small!

I'm still waiting for mine to be shipped out but in the confirmation email I received, it mentioned it could take up to 4 weeks for them to ship out since they operate on a made-to-order basis. I've been told by one person that their order took 3 weeks to ship out and 6 weeks by another.

I'm quite excited about getting my order since I've been admiring their pieces for years!

Just received a small Yahoo! Japan haul today:
>3 Sakizo Artbooks: Romantic Jewels, Parfum de fascination, Favorite March
>Metamorphose Apple print: miniskirt and matching barette/bow
>Alice and the Pirates LP Leftovers: 2 pairs socks, bustier

Received my Icon Pins in the mail today and I'm so pleased! Nostalgia ReBoot cosplay is a Go.

>>6685956
Speaking of usagiyouhinten... I just added a 15000yen dress to my cart and it says if I spend a total of 20,000+ yen I'll get free shipping... does that include overseas shipping? Because if it does, they rock!

just a few little things

>>6686537
how much you drop on Gloria? I never have even worn mine but it doesn't really look like it sells for much more than retail anyway?

>>6686544
you crazy, you can def get more than retail on gloria. it's highly coveted.

Just got my VGD petticoat today! Took like a week and a half to get here. It's super fluffy and soft.

>>6686544
>>6686567

I agree, it's a highly sought after print and not easy to find, that should effect the price.
Definitely ask more than retail.

>>6686614
alright, I wish >>6686537 would come back and say how much they paid. All the auctions I see usually start right below retail and I check back on them maybe a day until auction end and there's either no bids or maybe one bid. Never remember to check the ending price though. And it doesn't appear to sell enough second hand on comm sales or FB to see how much it goes for on there.

I bought this to go with my dress for the masquerade.

So excited for it to show up.

here are some auctions I was talking about... they didn't end very much higher than retail? In fact, unless currency conversion is really off I paid more for mine retail than these ended at. Anyway, sage for ot.

Waiting on my hoodless zentai suit from zentai-zentai and a wig.

I'm going to order some prescription blue contacts and Wonderflex next week. I really hope this cosplay goes well.

>>6686081
>tfw waiting on FromJapan to give you your total for shipping on all the stuff you bought in the last month so you can finally get it all

>>6686641
Tell me about it. They're usually pretty quick, though. So long as I make sure to choose the shipping options before everything arrives, anyway.

This has been the joy of my day because I won it on Mbok for less than $300. Midsummer has been going for crazy prices recently, but it seems to be mostly navy ones. I liked the ivory version because the print doesn't seem so faded...

Now hurry up and get to Japonica so I can have a reason to live.

>>6687503
Ohh, were you the one who won the set? or the single dress auction? Congrats! :)

I finally scored this print in navy recently too (yaay), though these sky-high prices are making me nervous.

Just did a huge bodyline order for my comm.
Can't wait to get thiiiiisss.

I'd just like to warn everyone that this item on Bodyline is not a wig with clip-ons like I thought it would be when I bought it; it is just the clip-ons. (I can't believe they'd charge $11 for these little things.)

>>6687542
Just the single dress, but the headbow would of been really nice. It looks like that one was ended early by the user?

I feel ya on the prices. I'd love to have the drop-waist one in navy too, but I saw the last auction peak 72,000 yen.

>>6686630
that's crazy, you could totally get 400 usd at least on the comm sales. go forth and scalp

>>6687896
I thought it was pretty obvious they are clip-ons. That's actually what that little package shows in the top left. I mean, how much more obvious could it be?

>>6688136
They have actual wigs on the site that are similarly priced and I thought the clip-ons in the package would come in addition to the wig.

bump

>>6681083
oh god

Should be getting this in today. Very happy.

>>6614111

Source on the bow tie & wig?

I've been eyeballing it for a while, I hope whoever bought this will post pictures of it worn when they get it!

>>6691815
Link to sailor top? Thank you!

Currently waiting on the skirt in the picture and a black VR skirt which will come next week

>>6693693
please please tell me where you got that cardigan.

I've been waiting on a Bodyline order for just over a month now. Put in a paypal claim because the mail company and BL keep trying to send me back to the other and won't tell me what the fuck happened to my stuff. Pretty optimistic since my mother runs online stores and says PP will give me it back and then it'll be BL's problem as they can claim it back from their postal service if they can be arsed.

Been in the mail for a week now, I'm getting really excited. This is probably the only time I have wished winter not to end, can't wait to wear it.

>>6693696
Sorry, I was sleeping but thanks for posting the link. I will post a review when I get the dress!

They say verum at the top, so I assume it's by Grimoire?

>>6693873
WHERE DID YOU GET THIS AT

>>6682020
Thanks a million!
Arg,it looks so nice,I kinda wanna touch it.
I'm sure when you're done with everything you'll look fabulous.

>>6694862
TAOBAO

>>6696068
No problem! I can hardly stop touching the wig myself. It really is dreamlike

Your doll is lovely and I love the arrogant (and a little sinister?) look he has! Reminds me of Jareth a bit from Labyrinth, I have to say. A bit of a funny story, and pretty unrelated to the thread, was that I had my hair cut and styled during my scenekid phase.

What store did you get him from, by the way? All these mail and taobao thread have me all excited and really wanting to order things.
