I submitted babby's first Taobao order to TBR a week ago and still no confirmation. Some of the items I want only have 1 piece left in that particular size/colour.
Does this happen often? After a few days I started editing the order a little, adding some new things I found and removing ones I was less interested in to keep the entire thing under $350. Could editing the order make the confirmation process last longer?

I tried 'oversized dog' in chinese, but it just got me dog beds and a dinosaur costume which I hope will fit because it was a 4xl.

CP Petticoats do deflate a tiny bit after a couple of months.
Would suggest getting the regular A-line, then just wait for it to deflate.
If you want it to deflate a little faster, roll it up tightly and put it in a small plastic bag (instead of shoving it into a small plastic bag, which crimps the material and helps it stay poofy)

Last year, I was making an order and I needed the items by the end of June. I switched from TBS to TBR. Since it was my first order with them I decided to plan it a bit earlier than usual just in case of anything. I submitted my order in early April and didn't get any email from them for a week. I figured they were swamped with orders since they're a pretty popular SS and it was still early for my order so I gave them a few extra days. After a few days, still nothing and more than half the items in my cart were sold out. Before anything else got the fucking baby shelf, I dug for other listings of the sold out items and submitted the order with Pruany and it arrived literally the day before I needed it.

I eventually did get an email back from TBR. In June.

This might be less helpful because these shoes are more expensive - but if you are looking for custom sized shoes this is the place (they make up to a US 12 and even do double narrow or wide). They also let you pick your own custom color, which is personally why I bought a pair. These shoes will run you at least $55 though - not the typical Taobao cheap but they are great quality and you will spend about the same amount at DSW or Modcloth without the custom color options.

Fuck, so it's my first time ordering from Taobao and I've racked up a cart worth $2000. I'm ordering from Transbao, but obviously I'm a bit nervous because I've never used this site, made such a large purchase online, and because they want me to use Alipay to fill up my purse and then pay from there.

Is this normal? Please tell me someone has experience with Transbao!!

Pic related was taken from eBay, but I'd like to find it cheaper since I've got an order going anyway.

On a side note, does anyone else who uses Pruany glance at the 'Member Dynamic' every once in a while, see the same names as always and wonder who they are and what they're ordering? Some of those users are adding and paying like all year round. I always think maybe resellers, maybe seagulls.

I'm SO angry with surface spell, but i didn't keep any chat logs so anything i say hold no fucking water. I can't install aliwangwang because I'm not using mavericks (snow leopard) and aliwangwang has already fazed out the snow leopard compatible version. I chat with sellers by the browser app and I just found out today that the stupid app only stores chats up to 30 days.

I ordered a blouse and a dress on 1st March, they said it will take 4 weeks. I told them to ship it to my warehouse in Shanghai. This warehouse only holds items for up to 20 days before they charge an over-staying fee. I co-ordinated the rest of my other purchases so that they arrive in early April.

I told them if there were any delays whatsover they can just tell me and I need to know because I'm not a domestic buyer and I have to co-ordinate the whole warehouse logistics to prepare to ship it to me.

I was worried in mid-April and I asked for progress pictures of my actual dress and shirt. They took a photo of the shirt, but they were rude in telling me "the dress is already complete it looks just like the stock photo" and i asked "please show me a picture anyway" and they sent me the stock photo itself.

By then all my items at my Shanghai warehouse were already on its way to me, so I told them they can't send it to the Shanghai address. I gave them the address of my new warehouse in Guangzhou and I told them they have to send it there.

They fucking mailed it to Shanghai. So I'm paying international shipping for one dress, one blouse, EXCLUSIVELY for surface spell ALONE while all my other junk is in Guangzhou.

When the goods arrive they better be good or else I'll be so mad. This is such shit customer service.

Short answer: Don't order with TBFocus

Long answer: Don't order with TBFocus, fucking cunts. I had to initiate a chargeback with my bank to get my money back that I sent through Alipay. What happened:

>Pay through Alipay
>get email from TBF saying they cancelled payment because it failed security checks, refund applied
>Nope, no refund. And the payment was authorised and is processing
>Bank finishes processing it, payment couldn't be more successful
>TBF still don't think it's been paid for
>Provide screenshots of bank statement showing payment. Takes a couple of times to get across the fact it's in GBP, hence why the number is smaller
>Finally, accepts that they have received the payment. Says they'll mark my order as paid
>Three days, nothing. Items have since sold out
>Request a refund
>But you haven't paid (same guy who said he'd mark the order as paid for)
>Point this out to him, he then insists the initial refund did in fact go through. The same one that apparently happened before he later confirmed he had the money.
>call bank. It can take up to 15 days to show up
>20 days pass since I called bank
>'Nope anon, that refund doesn't exist'

I bring this up with TBF, he then goes on about how my shipping address and registration address are different. I point out a part of their website that says this is allowed, to which he says their site is out of date and I should have checked first as it's against their policy. I tried to steer it back to the refund issue, but he was having none of it.

I gave up eventually, as whenever I did manage to get back to the refund topic, he'd insist I must have missed it. My bank got the money back, and i've not heard from TBF.

It wasn't so much that they wouldn't give me the refund, but the bullshit excuses they came out with. My bank said no refund had ever been processed, so the fuckers were lying the whole time.

>> No.7585390 [DELETED]

Shit, forgot to add:

I had to pay through Alipay, as TBF's website wont allow you to buy Dear Celine stuff through Paypal. Paypal regulations apparently, though Cici's always buying me shit from them with Paypal. I don't see why the method of me giving them the money, which will end up going through Alipay on Taobao anyway, makes a blind bit of difference if Paypal's not used to buy the stuff directly from DC. They never explained it on the TBF website.

I tried to chargeback my account with paypal originally, but you can't. It's a redundant option.

Shit, forgot to add:

I had to pay through Alipay, as TBF's website wont allow you to buy Dear Celine stuff through Paypal. Paypal regulations apparently, though Cici's always buying me shit from them with Paypal. I don't see why the method of me giving them the money, which will end up going through Alipay on Taobao anyway, makes a blind bit of difference if Paypal's not used to buy the stuff directly from DC. They never explained it on the TBF website.

I tried to charge my TBF account with paypal originally, but you can't. It's a redundant option.

Ask your SS? If they're providing them, they'd be the best to answer your question.

Sometimes shipping options have weight limits and other restrictions, can you see anything like that?

I never thought to ask my SS... I swear I am so dumb.
I found some information about it on ebay and it has tracking which is really all I wanted to hear. It seems to be something that's only offered by hong kong post but don't quote me on that.
Anyway, I just decided to go for it so I guess we'll see how it goes.

I know it sounds stupid. The jest of it is that I'm quite an anxious and paranoid person, and one way that manifests is this belief that i'm a constant bother or burden for people. I asked a lecturer my first ever question after 3 years at university, and I felt immense guilt afterwards for troubling them. This was during a Q&A session.

Speaking about it now, I now it's stupid. When i'm sending that umpteenth order form to Cici though, I struggle to think rationally about it. Obviously she probably doesn't give a shit, if anything she likes me because i'm a long-time loyal customer and I keep throwing money at them.

I was feeling that way even when I was trying to sort my issues out with TBF, but my extreme paranoia that I wouldn't get my money back overruled it.

So this isn't just me ranting, I know pic related print was sort after by at least one anon. I've linked before, but just in case there's others who wanted it.

So I missed the pre-order, is there any chance I can buy this on taobao some time, or am I gonna have to order it at a reseller? Never ordered from Little Dipper before, maybe someone can fill me in.

I wouldn't do it only you literally can't buy these anymore unless you are super lucky.

I want to place an order with transbao, but I'm a little worried that they don't accept paypal. With paypal it's super easy to get a refund if they screw you over and I am hesitant to order without that reassurance. I haven't seen a whole lot about transbao so I don't know if I can trust them. Is it safe to use alipay like they want me to? Am I being too paranoid?

Maybe see what your bank's stance on chargebacks for card payments are? I've done a chargeback on an Alipay payment done through visa debit.

Alipay itself is safe, though if you've never used it before your bank may block the payment. I had to call mine up to authorise it.

>> No.7586968

>>7586966

By stance, I mean the terms and restrictions. They may have a clause where only payments above a certain threshold can be chargeback'd, or that certain cards aren't legible.
