/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

>Tights that match the blouse and give the impression that the girl's wearing a sentai under her dress.
YES. THIS. So much.

You sound like a fun person.

Lolita's in general.

dollight/dolldelight

I'm just so sick of of seeing her shit at big conventions when there's like, Il Sangue or Mossbadger who put out good shit. All her stuff looks like gathered together fabric scraps from the clearance rack at Joanns with no sense of good taste, or organized layers.

When a buyer strings me along about holding an item for 2 weeks and then asks me to take almost 2/3rds off of the price. No bitch, someone else wanted to buy that shit for the price I gave you originally.

>>6839337
Can I see an example of that? It sounds hilarious.

whatever this is

>tights that match the blouse and give the impression of a sentai suit being worn underneath
Oh god, I have never noticed that until you said that. I can never unsee that now.

>>6839337
>>Tights that match the blouse and give the impression that the girl's wearing a sentai under her dress.
Can someone post pictures because I really don't get this.

>>6839346
Impersonator from yesterday, or the real deal?

>>6839406
Impersonator. Misterlolita doesn't namefag.

>>6839399
Kind of like this I think? She looks like she's wearing a red bodysuit under the dress.

>>6839414
not actually true, but it's usually all lowercase and only in the BtB threads

>>6839346
Awww, poor anon.

I'm so sorry that NOBODY GIVES A FUCK.

How people seem to think that OTT sweet is just sweet lolita, and "normal" sweet lolita is toned down sweet or casual.

>>6839346
>Lolita's in general
>Lolita's
durrrrrrr

>>6839363
Similarly, when a buyer asks about commissioning a specific item, strings me along for 2 weeks with various details and requests, and then goes "Okay, thankies, I'll definitely consider buying something from you in the future! ^.^".

not wearing a head accessory
wearing too much eyeliner with a sweet or classic coord
not ironing your skirts/jsks/ops
big floppy awkward bows

and a personal pet peeve, no matter what cute socks I wear, almost nobody can see them because i'm so short

>>6839420
>>6839414
I've seen her here before and she was using her name. Maybe she's having a bad day and wants us to believe it's an impersonator. I think it's her.

>>6839440
wut?

"so you do commissions? i want this jsk! i want it to be kind of like AP but more like baby here's a bunch of photos of what i mean. i want it to look like x and why but more like z"

you: "okay i can do that!"


"cool! I'll def consider buying something from you :D"

>>6839458
No, someone was impersonating her last night and she showed up anon to defend herself. I think it's butthurt-chan who got pissed that she didn't take down a secret that was a personal attack. Misterlolita is pretty chill.

My entire community, they all look bad and swarm like bees when drama is even hinted at

>I just brought my first Lolita item a split wig that won't match 90% of my clothes
> what's a petticoat
> don't like my opinion your a bitchy elitist
> I wear a US _ does AP carry the same thing? (really just girls who don't know that Asia n US sizes are not the fucking same thing)

>>6839327
>Food-themed pieces.
I love those

>>6839494
same
i would love a bento or sushi-themed coord
is that terrible?

>>6839365
hahaha oh i saw the teaser pic for that post and went "no". what is that material, the saddest kona cotton?

as for my gripe, girls who ask questions that have been answered 1500 times and could be answered with a google check.

>entirely pastel coloured sweet lolita coord
>black shoes

>>6839327
Lolitas who complain about Lolitas who wear brand.

>>6839416
but how many lolita blouses are made from a skintight material?

>>6839327
The only one of yours that makes any sense is too many bows, OP. The rest is your personal taste and you being a bitch.

>>6839511
Lolitas who complain about lolitas who don't wear brand.

>>6839506
THIS SO MUCH THIS

also two-tone wigs in general, so tacky

>>6839494
They look tacky, costumy, and cheap imo. Especially on fat lolitas, then it's just flat-out hilarious. A cake on your head? Using a box of pancake batter as a purse? How could those things ever be elegant?

I feel that way about food on any style of clothes though. The only people who can get away with not looking like a binge-loving slob are girls who look like they don't even know what food is.

Tea cups and shit are fine though.

>>6839530
How about candy?

>>6839530
always better than toys and overly-desu animals
>Using a box of pancake batter as a purse?
but it's cute

>>6839530
>>My definition of loli is better than yours!

>>6839534
Small amounts are acceptable, like accessories and the like. Giant lollipop prints are ugly to me.

>>6839551
Animal bags that look like plushes are terribad.

>>6839567
>What are opinions??

>every blog or tumblr has that same kind of jap music
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0z_wpv7RRLs&feature=player_embedded

Pastel-colored dresses with black bases (blouse, tights).
Just because 'black goes with everything' doesn't mean that it'll look good 100% of the time.

>>6839428
people who can't use apostrophes properly

>>6839498
yes.

What, was the cosplay AND lolita thread too inclusive for you?
>>6836020
I suppose the fact it promoted positive solutions wasn't cynical enough for you all.

probably because it's full of trolls like >>6836447

When people post a DS in the /cgl/ sales thread, but with no price.

> email for deets lolol

Bitch just tell me already, or at least be honest that you're going to change the price you want every five minutes

This fucking thing, right here. I WAS HOME ALL MORNING. WHY DIDN'T YOU KNOCK? I want my Classical Puppets petti, USPS. Why do you deny me my poof?

>>6839678
Australia post does one better: they don't leave a slip, the tracking marks it as a failed delivery, then show up the next morning at seven AM and sneak the slip under the door, because they didn't bother to finish their route the night before.

I swear, I hate my parcels guy.

Underage, overly enthusiastic buyers.
A cautious buyer with many questions is reassuring, but one that puts '!!!?!??!?!!!' at the end of every sentence, and even when they're asking a million things I've already stated?

I'm exhausted just reading their message.

>>6839678
This shit happens to me all the time. We had to put a sign on the door that said "Please ring door bell for packages." Other wise they knock once and say "welp no ones home"

>Girls complaining about the cost of lolita knowing it's an expensive fashion
Ugh. The FB page of my local meet is full of girls trying to get their dresses from costume shops or Milanoo sockpuppets.

>treating lolita like a costume, not a fashion
I actually take this fashion seriously, dammit.

>>6839530
you would have hated the brief but amazing burger loli trend in the early 2000s.

>>6839683
Any buyers that can't fucking read beyond a print name and the price. Asking "will you take trades?!" when the buyer already specified no in the post, asking if shipping is included when it says yes, asking a billion other stupid questions that the buyer has already taken the time to answer...

>>6839698
Early 2000s? That was like 2007-2009.

>>6839706
I'm also not sure you can call it a trend, since I only ever remember Tropigalia wearing burger-themed items.

>>6839634
>mfw i realize that I prefer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu as a lolita over Misako.

>>6839683
Oh god, this.
>asks a million and one question
>finally says "Great, sounds perfect!"
>oh cool I'll go ahead and invoice you then
>hold on gotta ask my mom first teehee!
>she says no :(
Jesus Christ, could you not have confirmed with her BEFORE you started asking me questions?

>>6839717
I've never really liked Misako. There's something so dead about her.

>>6839725
This.
I've been thinking for a while of saying 'No buyers without their own paypay account, including that of a parent' on my dress posts. But i know kids throw away the biggest money on the crap things.

>>6839698
>>6839706
>>6839708
Does anyone have pictures? I can't imagine that not looking like a giant Goodburger.

>>6839717
I can't even find Misako cute. She's not a fortunate looking girl and this video highlights it.

>>6839733
She usually only wore accessories (burger rings/necklaces instead of the deco sweet parfaits and macaron stuff), but for Otakon, she and the designer of LotV put these two outfits together as a bit of a gag.

>>6839727
I don't know about you, but I've never been convinced that she has a soul.

Its not really fair, but I hate open toed shoes in lolita. I'm biased though because I hate open toed shoes in general.

>>6839346
My pet peeve is people who think apostrophes are magic pluralizing machines.

>>6839799
Right there with you. Sandals are one thing, but I've lost count of the number of cute shoes that I've seen that were ruined by a random peep toe.

Honestly, who the hell thinks putting a peep toe on a boot intended for autumn/winter wear is a good idea?

>>6839706
wow, was it really that late?

>>6839806
I completely agree. Can't fucking stand peeptoes.

>>6839806
That IS really stupid. I love sandals that are peep-toed - especially woven wedges - but I also dislike it when an otherwise solid shoe just has a peep toe for no reason.

>>6839733
Didn't someone have a skirt that looked like an actual burger? It was cute.

>>6839428
>>6839638
>>6839803
Do you guys feel special now?

>>6839750
>You like Krabby patties, don't you Squidward?

Why do people post "i'm leaving lolita" or "urgent sale need to pay my rent!!!" on a sales post? No one fucking cares. Whenever people do that I ask them a bunch of questions and string them along and then don't buy the item.

>>6839750
I'm gonna be honest, I love this.

>>6840035
I actually like the "leaving lolita," because it usually means people will be parting with a large variety of items: pettis, blouses, accessories, main pieces, all at once. The "Urgent" ones seem absurd though.

>>6840051
Except more than half the "Leaving Lolita EVERYTHING MUST GO!!!" posts are like 2 wigs, a Bodyline dress and some blouses from H&M.

>>6839634
I actually enjoy this song, but her voice is so auto tuned

>>6839846
Yeah, I did a check while I was looking for photos. Tropigalia started posting in 2005/2006, wore burger accessories in her coords from 2007 on. Stopped posting in 2009 from what I can see. Dunno if she's still involved with the community at all and just doesn't post, though. A lot of people who were friends with her are still pretty active online.

>>6839416
but the reds are different?

>>6839530
talking shit about the best purse ever released? you better back the fuck up before you get smacked the fuck up

Shit sales mods (looking at you UK facebook sales group)

>Clearly state that shipping is included in the price in bold letters in each item description
>Someone comments "how much is shipping?"
>I add $10-$30 extra onto the (shipping included) price
Started calling it 'idiot tax'. Nobody has ever questioned it, so I just assume many lolitas can't read

People who try to hard.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B8w-KQ6X5qI

Her. Fucking. Voice. And the comments defending it, just why?

>>6840272

Oh God, they make me so angry. That fucking sales page is a shambles.
IDK why they won't just get some new mods.

>>6839416
I think this looks fine?

>>6839356
I want to buy the Amalia JSK from il sangue, is she doing dresses?

>>6839456
Another short loli here: Dem sock feels.

>>6840334
Nice. Gotta try that!

>>6840334
You're great and deserve the extra money. People should just read, holy shit.

>>6840353
They did get new mods I think. I've noticed posts for trainers and shit - nice job there mods. I get the impression the mods don't care or prefer to have the group run like this??????

Peter pan collars. Specifically how hard it is to find blouses that aren't peter pan collars.

>>6840410
I really want to complete my Milky Planet set with the headbow and socks but I think the socks will look ass terrible on me. :( I try to stick to matching legwear to make my legs look longer, so sweet socks with lots of horizontal patterns are generally unflattering, even though it's those adorable shooting star otks i've always loved ;_;

Lace parasols, they look so cheap. I also dislike rocking horse shoes and especially these shoes.

Lolitas with bad BO
Suck Up Wannabe Lolitas
Dirty Lolitas


this one curly haired blonde and chubby lolita in the UK community is so gross, and honest to god she needs a shower! Her name is Emma Memz Chipperfield, everyone wants her to gtfo the community and keep to her gross friends

she was mentioned here in an ita tastic post and was shunned from the cosplay community years ago I think she needs to get the hint eventually from this comm

>rocking horse shoes
Why? I love them

>>6840442
UGH THIS

>>6840518
Wow. Okay, you need to stop vendettafagging. Most normal people would be like, "There's this one girl in my comm who smells bad and it drives me nuts," but no one actually namedrops unless they have bad, bad vendetta. You've clogged up shit tons of threads with this. Stop, it makes your complaints less legitimate.

>>6840519
da but they're really ugly looking and not cute at all in my opinion

i'd rather see teaparties than rhs

>>6839750
Jesus that's horrible.

>>6840254
Every time I see that thing I want to punch the person who came up with the design, the people who put it together, the vendor who sold it, the advertisers who ran it, the people who bought it, the people who want to buy it, the people who admire it from afar, and even the people who say it's "not that bad."

I've hated that tacky ass bag since the first time I saw it.

>>6840352
>people in the comments actually think her natural voice is that high.

>>6840527
Seeing as they outnumber you, maybe you're in the wrong?

>>6839365
Those gumboots.

>>6840528
How is their own opinion wrong?

It's a bag with pancakes on it, get over it all of you.

I really dislike a lot of those chunky lolita heels. Especially these.

>>6840519
I really like them too anon.
They seem like a love/hate thing.

>>6840533
Those are just so awkward looking.

>>6840352
Isn't this a thing in Japan though?
Look up onnarashii.

>>6840533
I have these in black and they're like my favorite shoes. Looks a lot better irl.

>>6840357
She's sending pieces to Frill and working on pieces for another fashion show, from what she said in a previous thread. So. She should have something available in the near future.

>>6840518
oh >Emma Memz i see her at so many meets and I find her really off putting but never smelt her bad BO yet but lolitas with bad BO really puts me off buying anything from them. lolita is supposed to be doll like and clean dude

that shit ain't cool

>>6840544
The height of her pitch is far beyond the usual levels.

Oh jesus fuck not this bullshit again

>>6840442
I actually only love high-collared blouses myself, so I don't have this problem.

>>6840352
Actually her voice is pretty normal to be honest. Atleast for a Japanese person. I mean Penis' voice is waaaay fake higher.

>>6840514
the battenberg parasols? because agreed. a girl recently bought four or five of them from some shop and was praising how cheap they were and all i could do was shake my head.

>>6840642
oh god i saw that review. what the hell are those going to match anyways? they're really only fit for weddings.

>>6840620
But the fact is that that is not her real voice.

>>6840650
that's how new lolitas are- battenberg and cheap paper parasols because they are ~so kawaii and frilly and cheaper to find than brand ones~. i'm sure she'll carry them proudly while wearing a plain button-up shirt, a satin milanoo skirt with no petticoat, and legwarmers draped over her ratty converse.

>>6840661
At least those lace parasols are less ridiculous than those stupid paper ones.

>>6840533
These were my first lolita shoes

God, I looked awful

>>6840668
you mean those crappy 'asian' ones?

One of my pet peeves is all the ~custom tights~ ORIGINAL DESIGN DO NOT STEAL! that people keep making. Where the hell are they getting them anyways? Is there some site you can go to to get them printed?

>>6840696
http://www.funnylegs.com/Leggings-swimsuits-tights-design-yourself.html

>>6840696
Yep, those. Very little looks stupider than a Manatard with one of those and blue lipstick.

>>6840705
aah. that would make sense then. i've just seen everyone and their dog making their own super spechul tights lately

>>6840707
what..?

this girl.

>the OP said $500 shipped in the US and typo'd $200 shipped in europe. Why on earth would it be $300 less for europe?

>>6840713
Years ago I saw a picture of some girl wearing some really crappy EGL outfit with Mana makeup and one of those paper parasols. It just stuck with me, and now I relate those paper parasols with being ita. Sorry for not making sense.

>>6840731
No I got the imagery just fine it just seems so strange.

>>6840733
Oooh. Yeah, it was...special. I tried to find it, but no luck. Gotta warn you though, never google Mana cosplay or EGL cosplay.

Flaky buyers holy shit. If you're going to ask a question about the item, at least let me know whether you still want it or not when I answer, you ungrateful cunt. Don't bullshit me with stalling excuses when you know you're not going to buy it, either. I'm starting a blacklist.

>>6840730
This OP goes to closet child and buys stuff to scalp to western lolitas, and has a piss poor attitude to boot. He probably wrote $200 because that's what he paid and had a brain/motor fuck up. I can't wait for the delicious drama.

My pet peeve - if you are an ass and can't pay for something you asked for on the comm sales, just tell me like a (wo)man. Don't be like "I got in a car accident", "my washing machine/other appliance/laptop/etc just broke", "my grandma's in the hospital" or other stupid excuse. And fucking don't leave me a goddamn smiley face after it. Just admit it, you suck at managing your money and you have no sense of responsibility and you're going to live at home with your parents forever.

>>6840753
Even so a $300 disparity in price seems like way too much to over look.

>>6840753
>This OP goes to closet child and buys stuff to scalp to western lolitas, and has a piss poor attitude to boot. He probably wrote $200 because that's what he paid and had a brain/motor fuck up. I can't wait for the delicious drama.
NAME AND SHAME
If you do so, the drama will come.

>>6840744

I feel so bad about this, because for some reason, my LJ sometimes doesn't show my comment replies in my inbox and I quite often don't even notice people have responded to my questions simply because I just don't get the message.

>>6840661
I actually think that battenburg lace parasols can be gorgeous, but they only work with specific looks (gothic or classic with little or no print)
The problem is that many don't know how to us them as a texture in their coord.

pic related: gorgeous. She used it as texture in a monochromatic coord and it works beautifully. The same parasol with an AP print would look awful.

>>6839481

It always seems like it's the itas who are the quickest to swarm to drama.

>>6840819
See, this is alright. Tbh the black ones are the only ones I like. But pink and mint? No fuck that, they are for bridesmaids not sweet lolita. Never ever will it look good with sweet lolita. Ever.

>>6840819
It's gorgeous because she's already gorgeous.
Put this outfit on an ugly, lumpy person and people would be screaming ita.

>>6839678
At least they offer you to pick up the item at the post office. When this happens to me while I'm not at home, they return the package to the sender, and THAT is annoying. I end up paying shipping twice for like every 5th package or so.

>>6840780
Who the fuck cares? If there's a demand to buy it at a higher price let people pay it.

>>6840968
....is it your post office that's just fucked up or what, because that shouldn't happen. I'm pretty sure they need to keep it for at least a month before they can send it back.

>>6841049
not a month, it's usually 10-15 days, but i do agree that's fucked.

protip:she probably lives in australia.

>>6839676
Ugh this, and if it's not an easily searchable brand dress or something then give at least some idea of measurements. Location too.
I might hate eglcommsales for some things but that they require location at least in a post is nice...

>>6839684
My mom has no less than 5 different notes on her door to ring the doorbell, and they still don't ring it half the time. She's half-deaf, so she can't hear when they knock.

>>6840819
That's a good point, but it's one of those items that can be very tricky to pull off successfully, so most of the time it's best to avoid them. Also when it's those extra small ones they sell in the bridal crafts section of a Joann's...

>>6840730
I hate this fucking guy. He's not even in lolita... He's said before he used to flip old video games but because there's 2857375 doing that and he feels like there's nobody doing that with lolita, that's why he switched over. He has such a bad attitude about everything.

>>6841266
What guy? charshy is the annoying fuck in this.

>>6841270
Anon means the person who buys from closet child and then scalps on eglcommsales.

>>6841270
>>6841276
Yes, I was talking about "Sakura" (his name apparently.) He's been a huge dick on lolita sales in English too.... His fees are kind of crazy too, for the milky planet re-release his fees were about 30%.... He says it's because we're paying him to wait in line.... but they do it via a lottery so you really don't need to wait in line, especially since there were not even that many people waiting for milky planet

>>6841270
Also cheap sugary carnival is not unheard of, Mai sold off a bunch of skirts for 80$ a few years ago.. SC is not the price it used to be.. Most colors (except black and special blue) are going a lot cheaper than they used to be anyway

>>6841283
>>6841276
So? Then don't buy from them. Idiots will but that's their loss, same with the other anon who said that even when she includes shipping in the price people still ask how much extra shipping is and she ends up tacking extra money on.

>>6841300
Okay? See I don't get why people like you always need to post HURRDURR DON'T BUY FROM THEM.... umm, I'm not. We're allowed to say he fucking sucks.

>>6841300
Are you a different anon? Because otherwise, you were the one asking.

>>6841304
It's fine to say they suck but you and 5 other people said it already, we get it. No one cares if he's scalping closet child crap or if he mugged your first born dog to get the burando.

All I'm saying is that idiots scalp because other idiots buy from them.

>>6841310
Um, only like one post said he sucked, most was hating on the poor girl who didn't realize that typo (that he should have fixed)

You're just looking for a reason to be a bitch

>>6841316
Shhh stop feeding the troll.

Lolitas who give themselves Japanese names

>>6841441
Hate hate HATE this.

>Hi, my name is Sunburn McWhitebread, but you can call me Aimi-chan!

>>6841441
The worst thing is, my weeb dad named me Izumi, despite being 100% white. I just introduce myself as 'Izzy' and let everyone assume it's short for Isabelle or something. Thanks dad...

>>6841468
>>6841447
>>6841441
I hate this trash too because I actually have a legit Japanese first name. It's not my legal first name but it's legally a secondary first name on my birth certificate.

>>6841283
Is this the person who got the secret about how he was supposed get a bunch of Day Dream Carnivals for people but only got a salopette for himself?

The term "This is me wearing my lolita dress!"

Because you know that it's going to be a terrible lace monster paired with 1, nothing at all, or 2, a t-shirt and sneakers or something. A beginner lolita would at lest say, "This is my first coord," or something. The "my lolita dress" phrase is something only said by those who have that one terrible dress and treat it like a costume.

Lolitas who have a full wardrobe but never wear the clothes outside their house because 'i'm scared of what people will think or say.'
I think that lolita is a fashion that requires a backbone and thick skin and I'm almost sure that every lolita knows this, so when I see posts like that I can't help but roll my eyes.

>>6841504
>lolita is a fashion that requires a backbone and thick skin and I'm almost sure that every lolita knows this

Even then some people still don't get that they are going to attract attention. I really don't get a lot of people in this fashion.

Lovely Lor annoys the fuck out of me.

>>6841283
Do you want to hire a shopping service or not? No one is forcing you to pay this, you're just too lazy to figure out an alternative method.

>>6841691
hm?

this is a bit strange but are there shopping services for books?

>>6841691
she has a face like Mr. Grape the Happy Raisin, but a true and kawaii heart - that's more than can be said for the lolis around here

>>6841712
Honto.jp ships overseas. So does Amazon.jp

>>6841693
Not that anon, but I'd just like to point at that there are plenty of other SS's that have great reputations and genuinely want to help people get shit they want.

>>6841691
Same here. People keep reblogging her one billion .gifs and promos for Shit Lolitas Say 5 on Tumblr and I want to smack them. I've unfollowed three people who spammed her shit for several days in a row, because I'm that tired of her.

>>6841473
Well aren't you special
Even though i also hate adopted OTT names, your reason sounds like the anti-replica debate but on names.

> I have the real thing but not really sorta so you shouldn't be allowed the fake thing

>>6841710
She has the face of a person that doesn't want to cover it in makeup.
And a true and kawaii heart.
I don't get her haters, nobody's telling them to love her.

>>6841763
For me, it's the incessant self-promotion. I don't follow her because I find her videos trite and not in the least bit funny. But for some reason, she still pops up everywhere I go. After a while, it gets to the same level of annoying as those old crazy frog ringtone commercials.

>>6841763
Personally I'm not too fond of her because I don't find her funny, so seeing her touted as this great comedian is confusing to me.

>>6841789
I don't get it either, anon. We can wallow in our lack of Lorr understanding together, since we appear to be alone on that front.

>>6841787
This. Same reason I find Peachie grating.

>>6841794
I also don't see what her being a nice person has anything to do with why she should be famous. When I watch a 'funny' video, I'm not expecting to be blown away by how nice someone is, I want to be amused. And if it's not funny, then it's not a good video.

If you want to watch someone react terribly to being told they've made a mistake, come enjoy this awkward thread!

Pet peeve: Sellers being gigantic cunts

wtf editing it yourself is against the rules?? since when

>>6841967
It's not. The mods can see when you edit, and what you edited from.

>>6841961
>This, is what it should have said. To all the people who spammed my inbox with $200 FOR REAL?? I WILL BUY IT NOW and the like, I have never seen so many naive people in my entire life.

>That being said, this is the REAL DEAL. This is not a replica. They do not have replicas here in Japan. Nor would they be looked upon in a positive light if one were to appear.

She has the sandiest of vanginas. That's one more bitch I'll never buy from

>>6841961
Okay, so I decided to comment, that's fucking bullshit, that fuck should have changed that shit if it was "against the rules" and then told the mods they did. How the fuck do you think people go about writing sold and deleting prices and pictures do they *gasp* edit their posts?! Shock and awe! I guess we should all be banned then.

>>6841975
it's actually a dude (not like it really matters)

on the gtfo post, people are saying he's not even a lolita? Where is that info from?

Also I thought it was weird he picked ONE thing to not look for on his intro post (he won't look for Misty Sky) because of rarity. That seems like such a weird one to pick, I get it's rare but so are hundreds of other dresses

>>6839750
The headpiece is kinda cute, the rest is fug.

>>6841975
So some dude that lives in Japan and doesn't even wear lolita has figured out that buying low-priced brand secondhand and then scalping the shit out of them to foreign people can be quite the lucrative business.

And I thought nobody else would ever catch on.

>>6841992
I think someone in another thread said that he used to be an SS for video games, but that was too saturated of a market, so he switched over to lolita? I mean, the profile pic shows it pretty well, he's just a dude who wants to make money off lolitas.

only women can sell dresses!

So is the "Sakura" guy some hambeast white guy probably? I wonder how he is staying in Japan, pretty sure there isn't a visa for 'scalping lolita shit and being an ass'

>>6842022
That's not the argument.

Like, at all.

>>6842022
>Only people who aren't gigantic shitbricks and are actually involved in the fashion can sell dresses.
ftfy

>>6842013
This anon has it right. Those words came out of his mouth.

>>6842022
IMO, it's kind of like how people say "only the white man can profit off of pain." when talking about people of color selling drugs and the drug war. I think it's pretty shitty a guy is coming in, marking shit way the fuck up, and then being a dick about it.

>>6842031
I think he might be a Japanese national.... But I did think it was sketchy how he asks to be paid in USD when every other SS asks to be paid in JPY... most likely because they have Japanese bank accounts and it's easier for them to pay for shit that way

>>6841992
>At first, I was in Akihabara every single day scouring for used retro games to flip on ebay. There is A TON of people doing the same exact thing as me. Too much competition and too few high dollar games to sell. With lolita, I feel like I am the only one in the stores trying to find stuff for people.

>>6842525
LJ is giving a 500 error, can you post caps or something to those poop saps like me who can't see any posts?

>>6842346
hmm still don't know if that's proof that he doesn't know about lolita.

I mean I agree the guy is an ass, but I really have no clue how he could not know about lolita (specifically if someone wants him to look out for a print, what's he going to do, just ASK every store he goes into??) and run an even slightly successful SS since it appears he had at least a dozen people interested on his intro post.

>>6842564
Someone asked about where he said he flipped video games, so I provided proof. Anon said he's not IN lolita, didn't say he doesn't know about lolita. It's not hard to lurk, especially since it appears he's not in Japan for any particular purpose.

>>6842570
Oh you replied to my post, and I didn't ask where he flipped video games (at least, you replied to my post, maybe it was an accident on your part). And I was just curious why all the people on gtfo seemed to think he knew nothing about lolita since I never saw it said somewhere.

sage since I'm not trying to argue or anything. I'm also >>6842564

>>6842579
Whoops, thought it was someone else that asked about the games, my b. I think he knows about lolita insofar as he's aware of what it is, but not so much much about it the way like... we do here, you know? He knows enough that SC in black is popular (tbqh that was priced pretty fairly and even though I think he's a dick it doesn't look faded... that's just how SC is, and I own one myself to know it so I think they were just reaching with that) and he knows about replicas, but I don't think he knows much else... I mean the other prints he has for sale are hella old and not even popular/don't sell well on the comm sales.

Anyway I have a cap but CGL is telling me it's too big so I'll upload it to imgur http://i.imgur.com/rs3kJGc.jpg

>>6842581
This, and Rosaire did call him out in the GTFO for not knowing how releases worked. Why would you advertise that you know how to get something when you clearly don't?

>>6842564
I'm sure he looks up pictures of specific prints if people are trying to buy them, but yeah, besides knowing that SC is popular and the oddly specific Misty Sky, he's probably not up-to-date with lolita lore. I mean, maybe some more recent things like DDC.

>>6842581
it wasn't priced fairly at all, the black OP is up on yjapan auctions for $480 BIN. the JSK isn't worth more than that.

can anyone else not view the getoffegl post on this guy? or any of the other lj links?

>>6842593
>http://i.imgur.com/rs3kJGc.jpg

you sure showed him. I'm sure all female SS wear lolita

>>6840780
You guys sure can't breathe without your precious drama, can you?

>>6842603
Hm who might this be. Hi Sakura!

>>6842592
The OP has always gone for less than the JSK though. 480$ + shipping to the SS + SS fees + shipping to you is cheaper than 500$ shipped from this guy. 500$ for a black NWT (and swatch!) is really not bad at all. Cadney sold hers with the bow for a bit more than that I believe.

>>6842606
derp, I meant to say is NOT cheaper than 500$ shipped.

>>6842604
>thinking petty drama is stupid
>automatically the person the drama is about

Damn, you people are dumb and just proving my point.

He's deleted some of the comments on the original sales post and posted apologies. Still not buying from him, because shitty prices, though.

>>6842603
nice you see you join us, sakura
please spam the getoffegl post some more with your sock puppet account, its getting extra hilarious.

>>6842606
It's not NWT though, the thing in the bag is just the waist ties, I believe?

Mostly what gets me is:
>This JSK is IMMACULATE. I would not be surprised if the dress form was the only one that has ever worn this. You will likely never see something like this come up ever again. I shouldn't have to provide any info about this SUPER POPULAR print, but if you have ANY questions, I will answer them promptly.

The SC craze died out a while ago, I'm not sure if he missed that or something. I'm fairly sure it's not that fucking difficult to find a black SC JSK from something that's not such an ass-hat. Like, if this were Puppet Circus or something, that kind of advertising would be understandable.

He obviously doesn't know much about lolita even though he says he does, then he says he's still learning. He creeps me out.

>>6842615
yeah DDC is functionally the new SC. super popular, highly-sought, maybe a little less highly-sought since the made to order re-release though.
but yeah this guy is definitely not up on what's popular in lolita at all. seems like he just read up a lot on hellolace and stalked the comm without taking new releases and print popularity into account. bad strategy.

when he first posted about his ss he said he could get a bnwt sc for $300 but he didn't have it then he bought it to flip it and raised the price

>>6842616
He probably masturbates to it seeing as he is a Japanese man in his mid-30s with no job and creeps Akiba. Sounds like a mom's basement dwelling creepy otaku to me.

>>6842615
He posted it on LSE (which ended up getting deleted) before he bought it, he said it was NWT, never worn and with the fabric swatch.

I agree with you that the SC craze has died down and is not as expensive as it used to be, but black didn't take as much of a dip as the other colors. The black JSK has always hovered around 500. If it is in fact NWT, with swatch, and never worn, I do think that is pretty hard to find, and 500 would possibly even be somewhat of a bargain in that event.

>>6842616
The fact he thought Meta's cat print was a good print to flip just shows he doesn't know much. The only thing that creeps me out about him is it appears he doesn't have a reason to be in Japan... If he has no school or work or anything holding him down, how does he get by? Why is he in Japan? That's kind of why I think he's some kind of Japanese national or something

>>6842622
He is the kind of person certain sellers on mbok would refuse to sell to IMO.

>>6842620
I could have sworn in that post he said it was 500$ shipped. I guess we'll never know since it got deleted.

>>6842620
>please spam the getoffegl post some more with your sock puppet account, its getting extra hilarious.
On the FB sales, right?

I don't know why it was allowed in the first place.

>>6842625
yeah I guess you're right about the black colorway. still, without proof of the fabric swatch and tags, I'm not buying it (literally and figuratively).

>>6842625
In the images on the sales post it doesn't show tags. That's really odd, he might have been lying? I'm sure he wouldn't pass up to advertise it as NWT if it really were the case.

>>6842630
Yep, that was the FB sales. I was actually the one to get the mods to take it down because it was blatantly unfair to everyone else there.

it's obvious there's a rival shopping service with a vendetta.

>>6842638
Or maybe he's just a shitty seller.

>>6842638
ITS ROSEAIRE THAT STUPID BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!

>>6842628
It was $500. I came sooo close to screen capping it, but it was gone when I tried to open the comments.

>>6842636
He may very well have been, but I wonder if he even knows enough to think to post pictures of it or advertise it as such. I do think it's weird that he said one thing on FB, went out and bought it, and is neglecting the one thing that made a bunch of girls want to buy from him.

>>6842638
fuck off Suckura you fat shit

>>6842643
Wait, he bought it after he advertised for it? He probably made a mistake and thought he was buying it NWT then? I mean, it's clear he knows that having it be new is a good selling point.

>>6842638
>>6842641
hi again sakura and sockpuppet!

>>6842647
I'm >>6842641 and was being sarcastic

You assholes are so stupid. All your speculations are hilarious. Y'all think he doesn't have a friend or two that will stand up for him? The person on getoffegl is me, not him. Haha and he ain't some random white guy, as someone stupidly said, that decided to flip dresses. Pop me some popcorn too while you're at it ho.

>>6842628
People like him is probably why sellers on mbok have those extra security measures

>>6842646
He found it in a brick and mortar shop, posted to LSE on FB that he'd buy it for anyone who paid him, but had no photos or proof. So yes. He advertised it as NWT and immaculate before he had it in his possession.

>>6842638
or maybe he's just a basement dweller that doesn't know shit about lolita or customer service who is trying to scalp shit

>>6842654
Actually we already know he is a fat Japanese otaku living with his mom.

>>6842646
Yes, he advertised it first in the FB sales comm as being BNWT and swatch in a store "off the beaten path" (lol ok) with no pictures (which is a given, but against the rules on the comm) so it got deleted. I think once he saw the interest in it, despite everyone being like U NO HAVE PIC U SCAMMER comments, he went and bought it after he saw the market and realized that advertising for shit you don't own doesn't fly well in these comms, and probably assumed it wouldn't stay there. I think the waist ties being in the baggie made him think it was BNWT.

>>6842654
Hey again Sakura! Thanks for updating us, you really know how to keep us on the edge of our seats. You're hilarious.

>>6842660
lol he doesn't even know what NWT means
SC has been around for years, i'm pretty sure there are no NWT jsks left.

lol i bet he never even posted in this thread

>>6842660
when he posted his shopping service the first time there was a line about not being able to get misty sky and then there was a line that was like I CAN GET SC NWT FOR $300? or $200 then a few weeks later after MP he posted on fb sales with no pic

>>6842662
>i'm pretty sure there are no NWT jsks left.

This is probably why he thought he had a great find, if it was NWT. Another thing that's really interesting and shows how little he knows is that he doesn't specify whether it's the rerelease or not. I think it might be (the pic isn't high enough resolution for me to tell) and I think it wouldn't be as weird for one lone JSK to still be NWT if it was the rerelease.

>>6842654
do you really think using shitty ebonics makes you look like a different person?

>>6842665
lol keep trying sakura

>>6842654
no u

>is a MAN

>made a typo, letting poor lolitas think they could get a 300 dollar discount
>don't like the way he types

fuck yeah, blacklist this fucker

>>6842659

He isn't Japanese..

>>6842675
>is rude and condescending to customers
>tries to sell something as BNWT before even having it in his hands
>tries to sell a dress with faded fabric and other defects as new
>attacks other shopping services in his introduction post

are you illiterate

>>6842675

ftfy

>>6842675
you just outed yourself by saying
>don't like the way he types
I thought that ebonics white night wasn't you?

You guys just made this whole thing confusing... WHO'S WHO AND WHAT'S GOING ON!?

>>6842671

I am a different person asshole. Sorry the way I talk upsets you. White bitch.

>>6842683
knight*

>>6842684
Everyone is Sakura, duh

>>6842685
clearly you are a different person because all ethnic people talk in ebonics and call dem whitey white bitches

>>6842684

it was me, I was the flipped prints and drama the whole time

>>6842693
No it wasn't, it was me! I'm the one who did it all!

>>6842685
it upsets me because it's fake as fuck. have you forgotten how black people sound in your time away from LV?

>>6842685
You already slipped bb. We know it's you.

Btw, calling people "white bitches" on cgl--where it's automatically archived, though I'm sure people are capping it too--is going to do jackshit for your business.

>>6842698
lol busted

Call me naive but why would someone make a sockpuppet account as tryhard and obvious as this one? Something doesn't smell right

>>6842703
He's not exactly the brightest bulb in the box.

I mean, hell, those crazy Kitchen Nightmares people just tried to claim they were hacked even though it's painfully obvious they've pulled the same schtick before.

>>6842693
I was the drama and prints whole flipped time.

>>6842705
For some reason, people do it all the time, even when it's really, really obvious. Remember Nipple-chan?

>>6842703
IT'S NOT A SOCK PUPPET
HE JUST HAPPENS TO HAVE A FRIEND THAT MADE AN ACCOUNT TODAY THAT STANDS UP FOR HIM. AND THAT FRIEND TALKS IN BADLY DONE EBONICS HATES WHITE PPL

>>6842697

YOU'RE SO FUCKING DUMB. I TALK LIKE THIS ALL THE TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!! HOW THE FUCK IS IT FAKE???????? PEOPLE LIKE YOU DON'T DESERVE TO LIVE. I AM IN HIS LOCAL COMMUNITY AND THOUGHT I WOULD STAND UP FOR HIM. CLEARLY I JUST MADE THINGS WORSE. AND YES KILL WHITEY AND ALL THAT SHIT CAUSE THIS IS A PERFECT EXAMPLE OF HOW WHITE PEOPLE TREAT OTHERS.

>>6842709
FUCK YOU BITCH.

>>6842720
All of a sudden, I think I know who you are.

>>6842720
lul 0/10

>>6842724
A maladjusted 8th grader?

>>6842720
where'd your ebonics go?

BADLY DONE EBONICS MY ASS. WHERE THE FUCK YOU BITCHES LIVE? PROBABLY SOME WHITE EUROPEANS THAT DON'T KNOW SHIT ABOUT BLACKS. I AIN'T NEVER HAD NOBODY TELL ME THAT THE WAY I TALK WAS BADLY DONE EBONICS. WHAT THE FUCK...

what is even going on in this thread anymore?

>>6842724
LET'S HEAR IT.

>>6842732
If I had to guess? Multiple impersonations of the bitches be stupid troll.

>>6842732
Everyone and their mama being accused of being Sakura, of course.

>>6842730
oh, there they are!

>europeans
> don't know about blacks

there are no black people in Europe?

>>6842735
>>6842734
This seriously stopped being fun once this impersonator came in

>>6842736
Silly anon. Everybody knows black people only live in America and Africa!

>>6842738
GLAD I FUCKED UP YOUR NIGHT. AND HOW THE FUCK AM I AN IMPERSONATOR? I'M THE ONE THAT WAS FUCKING WITH PEOPLE IN THE GETOFFEGL THREAD, AND THEN I CAME HERE TO FUCK WITH Y'ALL HERE.

>>6842742
Yeah, you're Sakura. We know.

I'm fucking rolling

>>6842745
I'M IN HIS COMMUNITY. CAN'T YOU READ? SHIT.

>>6842720
I doubt you are a member of TIL

>>6842752
What's TIL?

>>6842750
Lolita community? lol

>>6842750
It's pretty sad that he has to ask his friend to come onto the internet to defend him from a bunch of girls. What a huge weeping pussy.

>>6839365
Gotta love Snoop Dog in Ouji fashion...

>>6842771
dying rn lol I'm guessing Sakura is Coolio since he said he was such a cool guy. Either that or Soulja Boy.

>>6842770
HE DIDN'T ASK ME.
>>6842771
HAHA I'D LIKE TO SEE THAT SHIT.

>>6842773
You really made things worse by doing that. /cgl/ is a notoriously stupid board that thinks anyone with a differing opinion is either a jealous fatty or the person in question. Same thing goes for the ones in that Livejournal community apparently.

>>6842775
You have got to be shitting me. "that livejournal community" is the biggest give away that you don't even go here.

>>6842776
Doesn't make my point of /cgl/ being a dumb board any less valid. This is the same board that thinks you can treat a UTI with over the counter meds, not risk serious kidney damage if left untreated for a long period of time, and thinks it's "not that big a deal."

>>6842775
Y'ALL CAN'T BE THAT DUMB THOUGH. I DON'T THINK HE WOULD COME HERE AND START SHIT LIKE I DID. AND IF I MADE THINGS WORSE THEN WHAT'S DONE IS DONE.

>>6842777
...wat?

>>6842776
Doesn't make my point of /cgl/ being a dumb board any less valid. This is the same board that thinks you can CURE a UTI with over the counter meds, not risk serious kidney damage if left untreated for a long period of time, and thinks it's "not that big a deal."

>>6839498
I want one too anon. As long as it is tastefully made i think it would look pretty cute

>>6842778
You ruined your friends business. Congrats.

>>6839327
What's the name of the dress that the girl in the OP is wearing?

>>6842785
SHUT THE FUCK UP. I DIDN'T RUIN SHIT. I CAME IN HERE TO FUCK WITH Y'ALL CAUSE YOU WERE FUCKING WITH MY FRIEND.

>>6842793
No, you did ruin his business by being a little bitch on the gtfo post and here. No one is going to want to deal with him now knowing that he has whiteknights like you waiting to jump in and start harassing.

>>6842796
BUT IT'S OK FOR Y'ALL TO HARASS? LOL OK.

>>6842798
It was totes cool of you to come in, after your friend put down someone with a disability, and call that person a bitch for being upset over it.

He brought the harassment upon himself by being a gigantic douche since the start. Now he's learning that he can't just barge in here and treat everyone like shit and expect to get a huge loyal following.

>>6842798
Well... most lolitas are stupid, bro

>>6842798
>>6842802
samefaaaag.

>>6842800
>>6842802
I NEVER SAID HE WAS A GODDAMN SAINT. I DIDN'T READ EVERYTHING THAT WAS SAID. BUT I WON'T LET A BUNCH OF BITCHES GANG UP ON A FRIEND FOR REAL.

>>6842804
NO

>>6842809
So you didn't read everything and therefore didn't know the situation, and just came in, guns blazing, and started calling people names. Wow, you're incredibly fucking stupid. Congratulations.

>>6842804
Not even close.

>>6842815
IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT THE SITUATION WAS. YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T HAVE FRIENDS CUNT.

>>6842818
Christ. Slow clap.

>>6842820
HAHA DID I HIT A NERVE? I'M OUT. PEACE.

>>6842849
Good thing caps last forever

>>6842849
>>6842973
I PLANNED THAT FROM JUMP. YOUR POINT HO?

Gotta bitch a bit. Why the fuck do people wear wigs in colors that just don't suit them? I recently saw pictures of a girl wearing some insanely pale blonde wig from GLW and it just looked ridiculous.

>>6844346
For some reason a lot of lolitas don't seem to grasp the concept of choosing things to suit your features. They think once their outfit is with "the rules", they must look great, so you end up with people wearing shit in colours and cuts that are incredibly unflattering on them.

Lovely Lor needs to go away. She's ruining the So Cal comms.

>>6843504
You planned to ruin your friend's business? Well ok then

>>6844439
That is true I suppose. I avoid Tumblr/facebook comms so I miss most of the really bad stuff.

I think some of what makes it so bad is that not only is the color too light, its GLW so there's minimal blending. The color is just so flat and fake it looks worse. Buttt everyone seems to think she's the cutest sweetest thing ever, so no one is going to say it looks like crap.

>>6844584
NO. FUCKING LEARN HOW TO READ. I PLANNED TO DELETE SHIT ONCE I PISSED YOU BITCHES OFF.

>>6844907
No one's pissed off, just vaguely bemused. Also, we know how to cap.

man kind of late, but sakura isn't japanese. he's filipino from the us and the reason why he asks for usd instead of jpy is because he is only there on a visitor visa lol.

>>6842337
>>6842625
man kind of late, but sakura isn't japanese. he's filipino from the us and the reason why he asks for usd instead of jpy is because he is only there on a visitor visa lol.

sorry for the double post

>>6845983
I didn't really think he was Japanese because Sakura Nishiarai sounds like a fake Japanese name (if Sakura is the last name, as I assume since it's using the kanji for a last name 佐倉, not Sakura 桜 for cherry tree that girls use for first names, then Nishiarai should be a first name, and it's not a real name anyway, but if anything a last name as well).

He keeps saying he doesn't do auctions because he's "an outdoor person" but I think it's more like he doesn't know Japanese and doesn't have a Japanese cell phone or credit card that are required to set up a mbok/yahoo auctions account.

So a Flip trying to flip lolita. hahahaha
