For anyone who has ordered shoes, if I have a pair of flip flops in EUR sizing, could I use that size to order? Or would it be a disaster?
I'm ordering creepers/platforms and I use orthotics so I need an exact size or I'll end up killing myself in them. I've tried googling how to measure my feet and there's a few different ways I'm not sure which one is accurate since I got different sizes with all of them.

Will do! Though it looks like I was wrong about one having already left New York.

Could anyone offer me any advice?

Package 1: SAL, last update says processed through sort facility (ISC) in New York on the 23rd. No further updates or stating it even left ISC.

Package 2: AIR, last update says left sorting facility (USPS) in New York on the 26th. It also went through ISC the same day, then switched to the secondary USPS sorting facility hours later then left it.

Should I be worried that my first package hasn't updated in four days and seems to still be going through sorting when my second package made it through the same location in just 8 hours?

Color is so dark that I mistook it for black when I opened it.
Ribbon around the skirt/suspenders/collar I thought was white is shiny satin.
Both the blouse and the skirt are very thin, I could see my hand through the skirt fabric.
The blouse was really tight around my chest, the skirt fit very comfortably though and the straps were good.
Loose threads everywhere. So many loose threads, it's ridiculous!
Bow on the blouse is just a bow with a safety pin.

Less loose threads than the navy outfit.
Headband was DIY and the ruffles wouldn't stay straight up, they either pushed to the front or the back.
I couldn't even get the dress fully zipped up because of my chest.
The apron tied well but the straps kept falling off my shoulders despite tying the ties tight and tugging the apron down to try and keep them from falling.
Fabric wasn't that see through from what I could tell and worked okay with the pannier that came with my navy outfit.

I can't really rate the maid outfit because I couldn't even wear it but the construction is good. Maybe if I wore a chest binder it would fit but it was such a hassle to try and get on.

Also before anyone points out I gave the navy out a 4/5 despite complaining a lot about it, the issues with it are pretty fixable so I rated it a 4 instead of a 3 or something. It actually looks pretty nice worn despite the straining buttons. I'll probably just wear a sports bra or a binder under it.

Does anyone know what this is a replica of? I really like it, but they only have it in one size, and that size has an 84cm bust max.

This store has a that inky/tye dye-ish shirt-dress that was popular a few years, as well as a coat that I definitely remember on coconuts store last year, so I'm hoping that this is also a knock off of something else. They also take pictures of their own replicas, so googling the picture doesn't help.

Anyone have experience ordering from Pumpkin Cat? If so do they only take reservations or do they have stock after the release date? I missed out on the whale JSK (using Taobaospree, can't believe they couldn't get it) and I was thinking waiting until the series to come out. If they don't then I might as well go with a less popular cut.

Also, any brown lolita blouses in stock right now? Searched taobao using 棕 for brown but I got very few hits. Should I search for coffee colored instead?

I made a super small order with TaoBaoRing.

My cost on 1 shirt and 1 skirt:


Items cost
105 ¥ / 17.54 $
Freight
30 ¥ / 5.01 $
Commission
30 ¥ / 5.01 $
International express
62.45 ¥ / 10.43 $

$37 For a couple things wasn't all that bad, especially considering I wanted to do a small order to test out the service in general. They were great, but I should have asked them to be more thorough with checking the items (skirt had a stain on it). Other than that I was pretty happy overall. Less than $15 for 2 items is alright.

Pumpkin Cat isn't THAT popular, typically. At least not compared to Krad or Surface. You can wait for the post-reservation listing to appear, sometimes they make a few extra pieces to sell, or sometimes people pay a deposit and back out after wards.

Lolita blouses don't list the colour "brown" in item description. That's why running a search yields no desirable results. Why not just browse through the Lolita Taobao sheet?

Btw they don't use the colour brown 棕 - they will use words like chocolate 巧克力, coffee 咖啡, mocha 摩卡, etc whatever sounds fancy instead of the word "brown" itself.

Jellyfish do nothing for me, but I really like this release. The print looks the best on the onepiece; too bad teepee-shaped dresses look weird on me.

>>7723290
So the outfit in question is rather comfortable and really cute honestly. The top layer is made of see through fabric and the white "undershirt" is thin too so wearing something underneath is advised.

The skirt has elastic and ribbon in it so making it tighter or looser is an option which I like! The print at the bottom though worries me. Since it feels and looks like it'll come off in the wash but that'll be determined when it goes through.

Everything is cleanly sewn on, the ribbon on the collar, sleeves and tie definitely has. There's no loose threads left behind and I guess my only advice for this is that it's not meant to show any figure. As seen in the picture.

Not really good at giving reviews but hope that was somewhat successful?

I think they're pretty decent. Not pixelated like you had written in your post. At least I think so. There was one card that was damaged on the left side edge but I figured that was okay since it's just mainly for prop purposes.

Sorry, newbie here

How do you guys budget for shipping? I have a $250 clothes budget including fees, shipping, etc...how do you estimate costs?

>> No.7724981 [DELETED] 

>>7724969
I usually estimate about 600g per OP or JSK, 300g per lolita blouse, 400g per lolita skirt, 75g per pair of tights, 60g for bows/headbands, 250g for normalfag dresses, usually at least 700g or more for bags and shoes.

I'd add it all up for a rough estimation and check the shipping quotes, most SS's have a page listing the shipping prices per weight.

For example, I use Spreenow (formally taobaonow). The rate for EMS to USA is 144 cny for the initial 500g, and 45 cny for each additional 500g.

Remember they round to the nearest 0.5 kg or 500g.

Hope this helps! Have fun, taobao rules!

I think there can be many reasons, but it's usually because of cheaper fees (service, shipping discount or otherwise), good reviews from other people or bad experiences with current SS. I've had to switch from a cheaper one to another with better english/communication because I heard that they handled reservations and custom orders well. I'm currently using yoybuy because I like their old cart system, and their communication and fees seem reasonable, but I could switch to another if I was doing a complicated custom order.

I'm pretty wary of less known SS though, and I wouldn't be in a hurry to jump ship to another even if they were much cheaper. Between these threads and other reviews it usually becomes apparent which ones are legit and which ones aren't. For example I remember when taobaoring was getting a tonne of bad rep here.

Did they take photos of the items? On my order, it was listed as "complete" though I checked and none of the items had actually been bought. If there's no tracking number and it really appears as though theyve bailed, I'd chargeback.

I actually just did. This is my first time filing a chargeback though. It was relatively easy and I was told to just wait 12 hours, which is so much less of a hassle than dealing with PayPal that it makes me kind of skeptical, but I guess we'll see what happens.

My first order had a few hiccups so I was planning on not using them again, but I had to get a replacement for an item sent in the wrong size. I decided to add a few more items to save on shipping and now this shit happens. Just great.

Not the same anon, but for me they had photos of all my items except two I was waiting for. I still want to file a chargeback though, but I seriously regret not taking screenshots like I was planning to.

Yeah I saw good reviews and that's why I decided to try them out. They seemed fine until my parcel still hasn't been recieved by CP in 10 days, they haven't responded to my messages, and now the site is gone. It was there yesterday, but this seems way too fishy so I'd rather bail and hope I get my money back since it's $600

Couldn't find this-- looking at cute bedsheets. Anyone know what the size conversion would be? I've got a US queen size bed.

Maybe they've been hijacked. Don't know why none of the agents have bothered to say anything on it, though, other than some vague warning.

Well, I'm glad I got my order already, and that I didn't tell my friend to use Transbao a week ago.
I still have my agent on Skype and she's online fairly often- would anyone like me to message her next time I see her on and see if I can get an answer about this from her?

i know it's really mean, but i'm just laughing at all the idiots who lapped up to transbao when they had absolute zero rep before this.

seagull money is so easy to cheat. sometimes i wonder why i don't try to scam some of you.

yeah I mean I'm super cautious about giving my money to people for things on the internet. I won't buy 2nd hand from anyone without at least 3 positive feedbacks or so.

I like trying new things. After making the SS sheet, I've wanted to try (almost) all the SS just to see what I like.
I default to tbr if I'm being lazy.

>>7727107
>>7727115
Since the anon that raved about transbao came to the thread, others have tried with success. I don't see how that's any different than other SS mentioned in threads. Listening to other opinions, just like the other reviews for other SS, generally gives a peace of mind to trust a new SS somewhat.

I didn't try transbao though. I do agree that scamming seems easy on /cgl/ so I'll give you that.

>> No.7727268

I guess the agents have Skype starting on boot, and when we message them they notice and go " whoops, better log out". A word wouldn't hurt at least. I'm so jealous of you americans with your chargebacks...

here is transbao's whois info : http://whois.domaintools.com/transbao.com

websites with the same owner are :
panbazaarDOTcom, u1000DOTcom, cloudvigorDOTcom, yunbpDOTcom, yunxyDOTcom

I think I remember a different SS' website going down for a brief amount of time but it ended up being nothing, maybe TBN. Anyway, hopefully it's nothing.

i hope the fact that they sent mails telling people not to order and the fact that they moved the site instead of deleting it indicates that they are only doing maintenance.

It was crazy when it seemed like there was only that one person raving about them. It might have been a Transbao employee for all we know. The wallet thing always seemed a bit weird too.

Does an SS charge for domestic shipping when domestic shipping is free?

Not totally Taobao, but hopefully you guys can help.

Alook just released a line of MU4 glasses (for preorder at the moment I think) but Alook appears to only sell stuff at stores in Japan, not really online.

Does this seem like he type of thing to show up on Taobao or a similar site through resellers? Or would I need to find someone in Japan to buy them for me?

Back to strictly Taobao, has anyone found any stores that sell "wild" sort of glasses like that? Non-perscriptioned of course, I'd just get that part done locally.

Saw these shoes in an earlier taobao thread, (might have been this one though, who knows) but I went to take another look at them and it seems like they're getting some pretty bad reviews, and I can't understand a lot of what's in the description. Any ideas?
