different anon, but I have ordered cute gloves before (as a gift for my mother) and they were just the type you find in the average sort of 'cute crap' shop, nothing specific to that shop. I would caution however that all of them were VERY small and have no stretch, so if you have long or big fingers I'd go for mittens. I have super long fingers and I could get them on but not wear them comfortably. Fortunately my mum has small hands and liked them a lot.

I believe the shop did have a decent number of pairs that would look nice with lolita winter coats and such (which I would say makes them pretty loliable). They were well made, so I can try to dig up the link if you want?

http://shop59200130.taobao.com - accessories of all kinds; hair stuff, scarves, tights, false collars...
http://shishuiliunianshipin.taobao.com/ - bunch of jewelry of several styles including Alchemy Gothic knockoffs which is probably why I bookmarked it

It's an Amavel replica. There's loads of them that say different things like "Delicious Chocolate" and "The Circus" in French. They come in short sleeve, 3/4 sleeves, and long sleeves. I ordered the long sleeve one but used the 3/4 one for the collage since the picture was clearer. Just search "Amavel", there's loads on the first page.

I ordered a pair of tights from R-Series (the ones with the bunnies on them) with my huge taobao order via Pruany.

I noticed yesterday that everything had finally arrived (I was waiting on the tights) and confirmed the end of my order and paid the SS fee and was refunded $10, weird. I asked what was up and was informed of this, re: the tights:

"Sell parent time inaccuracy to deliver goods! I'll give you refund, cause trouble, I'm sorry"

They were supposed to begin shipping them out on the 26th, I didn't mind that. I told Pruany that I wouldn't have minded waiting for them and got told this:

"I'm sorry, I many times to urge the seller, but the seller never sent! I don't think he is a good seller! In order to protect your interests, I can only a refund, caused any trouble, I'm sorry"

Now my order is closed, ordering them through Loli Loli Paradise makes the $10 turn into $22 tights + $8 shipping.

Ordering directly from R-Series, they don't do small packet shipping and can send them to me for $38 plus some $10 bank transfer charge they do.

I've emailed Celestial Delinquent and haven't heard back from her.

Anyone else know of a SS that will ship small packets instead of charging me $30 shipping for .. one pair of tights.

I've never ordered from R-Series before but I very much doubt they are bad sellers..

I've ordered from R-Series before and I had no troubles. I'm sure there are others in this thread who have bought from them as I know their deer series is somewhat popular.

That said, I've tried buying from Krad Lanrete since they became popular. Before MC, I had zero problems but now they are very difficult to get a hold of. R Series might be experiencing similar issues with their deer series. In which case, I would say they're most likely slow rather than 'bad' in the same way that scammers are 'bad'. I'd probably just ask Pruany to try again and wait x amount of days.

I saw this skirt a while back that was red plaid, and it was covered in belts and straps. Not like straps that hung loose, but covered the skirt. The picture the shop was using was a girl wearing the skirt with a white top and those leather bondage straps that are popular with streetfashion now.

I'm pissed at myself for not saving a picture or the product page, is there any way someone here may know what I'm talking about or have some way to help me find it?

But no lolita dresses are made out of cheap cottony lace. If you were a lolita you'd know how quality can ruin a dress.

considering how much "winterwear" ranges, I'd recommend just searching 冬女, choosing your particular department (coats, jackets, leggings, etc) and then sorting by credit to get the highest-ranked shops. you can also select style filters like "elegant" or "street" rather than sweet or whatever

for snow boots, search 雪地靴 女 and then select outdoor sporting goods from the related categories section. that will get rid of at least some of the useless ugg-type shoes

These tights are a bit tricky since they look like they're made of some kind off cotton/polyester/spandex blend and it might not stretch as much.

Celestial: Going on a semi hiatus and has a time frame over November through to January concerning ordering from her. I'd advice checking her website, as the no ordering blackout varies ( if you're a returning customer etc).

Dollypoddle: She's basically abandoned the SS without any prior warning, taking people's money with her. There's not been an update for months. People are now going to their banks to get their money back, and are warning others to stay away from her. She's basically one step away from been branded a scammer, all it needs is someone to come out and call her that. People are already calling her untrustworthy on FB.

I know she had a baby, but surely she can find 5 minutes just to post a 'don't worry, i'm still alive'. As it stands, she'd either legged it with the money, seriously ill/dead or just displaying some of the shittiest communication of any SS. If it's the latter, i'd still advice people not to order from her unless you enjoy that 'just got scammed' feeling.

? Why would anyone hate you? As for crystals and stones, I really, really recommend just lurking around ebay auctions from experience. The price on taobao as far as I searched was actually more expensive, and once you take into account shipping, well these stones can get quite heavy very easily.

Heck, I think even the local market might have some gems. I remember once when I went on a road trip in the US that I encountered a tiny shop with lots of crystals for cheap. You should try looking around the area if you have the means, I'm sure you'll find something. Not to mention a lot of these people are quite knowledgeable, so it's more likely you'll get what you're looking for.

How Taobaotrends does a flat rate of 15rmb shipping per store, does that rate extend to stores that have free shipping?
Also if I was to 'gift' them my payment through PayPal, how safe is it? I'm not going to get ripped off $400 am I? Has anyone else gifted their payment? If its too risky, I'de probably rather just pay the extra 4%

If you enter your search on the front page of TaoBao, you should be able to find it where I've marked it here.

I always see Lucaille recommended if you haven't tried them.

The rate does extend to stores with free shipping. And you're probably fine gifting through PayPal. I've done it myself and know other Anons in these threads have. However, if something does go wrong like a wrong order or the package getting lost in the post, I wouldn't know how that's handled.

hey ya'll, did anyone get this blouse from the Boguta store? I got their white winter coat last year and I love it. Does this look casual to use for any event?

Is the Krad Lanrete jellyfish OP still available? If so, why are two prices listed on the webpage for the same dress?

If you don't mind, what did all that set you back, in total?

lolll 175 USD, fees already included... telling myself it's totally worth it after finally getting a job with discretionary income to spare. And just noticed I stuck in the same picture twice in my collage, feelin' dumb but at least there's no white space in that corner!
