I bought my first dress last week, and was super excited. Remembered the seller said she'd send it out Wednesday, so I checked my messages.

>>7858863
This. If someone tries to give me a HUGE under offer, I can be affronted or even straight up tell them "That's not happening" because I don't want to coddle everyone. This is a luxury fashion/hobby and shit can get expensive. If you don't have $200 and offer $100 on someone's item, they have every right to tell you "Uh. no" without sugar coating it.

Man, I say this quite often. Now I wonder if I'm being misunderstood.

I don't mean any malice, if the dress is truly overpriced then I'm sure the buyer can find another seller, so I wish them luck in doing so. I've done things like direct them to another auction or shop that has the item for cheaper, even.

I don't want to part with MY dress for below a certain price, but I don't hold any illwill to the buyer either, sometimes I've been that buyer looking for a bargain. If seller says no, let it go and move on, or cough up the cash if you desperately need that item so badly. No need to get your panties in a knot, whether you're the seller or the buyer.

No, it doesn't mean fatter, but it generally does mean you are larger proportionately unless all your height is in your legs.

It doesn't bother me too much if they phrase it like, this item has dirt or a stain here and I will try to clean it before sending if you request. Cus some things are not easy to wash and they might be afraid of damaging it more. But just being like "this shit's dirty lol" isn't really that good of a sales pitch.

She bought the puppet circus skirt for $1100, made a new account and tried to sell it for $1100, no one bought it so she listed it as an auction starting at $1 and it ended at $250, got pissed off it was so low and tried to relist it again without notifying the winner I the bid. Bidder left negative feedback, and I just looked it up too, the negative feedback has indeed been removed for whatever reason.

If you scalp in the sense of first buying shit you don't want and only to resell it later, you're disturbing the system of supply and demand by making an item artificially more demanded than it actually is.

I've shipped dresses in taped up envelopes, and I don't know how to feel about this.

To be fair, mine are never "bursting", I always use a much bigger envelope. Although most envelopes aren't built to ship dresses in, so it's always a bit tricky to get a poofy dress into it, and they do have a kind of bursty look after being packed because the dress isn't flat like a stack of documents. I tape mine moreso to prevent theft, usually I only tape the envelope seams where I think someone is likely to pry it open, I leave the other end untaped since it'll be pretty obvious if someone tried to cut that side open so why waste tape.

>>7858726


tfw I've done this too, but only because the box was a prepaid box. No, my box was not deformed but I thought the sticky tape holding it shut was pretty weak so I taped the whole thing in every direction to discourage someone cutting open one side to take something out and then taping it back.


Am I a horror seller yet cgl? I ship next working day and all my items have gotten to my buyers thus far because I pay for tracking on every one. I wish more buyers were willing to pay me to ship in boxes, but honestly I'm getting buyers haggling me on prices or asking if I can ship it for free, so the cardboard box is the first thing to go since it adds to the shipping weight that the buyer doesn't want to pay for. Heck, I'd even giftwrap if you want, you just gotta ask and pay for it.

There needs to be a strict way on what can and can't be labeled "plus sized lolita" or "tall lolita friendly"

I'm tall, and only 1/4th of the dresses in the "tall lolita tag" would actually fit me.

and accessories are lumped in that tag as well.

I'm sure plus sized lolitas have the same problem with tag spamming.

>strapless dresses
>hanueli
>(and if your torso isn't long) long dresses
>jsks with adjustable straps
>salopettes with adjustable straps
>handmade shit that was made FOR a tall lolita

I'm short (5'1) but listed items as tall friendly. That said, all the op's/jsk's were well over 100cm.
At what length would you classify something as tall friendly? And at what size is it plus size friendly for that matter?
I used to be plus sized and at that time I wanted to post some of my items to a plus size fb community, but after reading their rules it was clear they didn't classify me as plus size and my items weren't allowed on there.
Since then their policy changed, but I thought it was odd as the garment fitted up to a 95cm bust.

I think 95cm isn't really plus size. That usually equates to about a US M-L depending on the clothing brand. While it's not small-sized, it's definately not plus. That's usually around a size 14/16 which is roughly 100cm or over in the bust (plus factoring in about 3cm of leeway for wiggle/breathing room). Something that at max would be 100cm probably wouldn't be plus because you'd need to be at the most, 97cm to wear it, preferably smaller. Which really just puts you about a US M or so. (Considering brands like IW list their L size items at ~100cm)

But then again you've got people who are like nothing less than 4L and full shirring is plus sized!!! So IDK.

Stop being so fucking jelly, Anon. There are a lot of people who buy releases in different colours and later sell a colour or cut they don't like; and with popular releases it is only natural they decide to sell it for a higher price. I'm not an AP fan and I have no idea what this JSK should go for and how much she's scalping but holy shit, your attitude is really annoying.

Being indecisive is one thing, but for a release with so few pieces the least she could do is price it an amount where she would break even on the price + shipping and let another person who missed out have a chance.

butting in to say: this argument you're making is a pretty stupid one.

just because someone doesn't like someone else because of things that they've seen/heard them say, doesn't mean they are obsessed with that person and that they have no life outside disliking that person. people make judgments based on others' actions and words.

They're selling on consignment, I believe. So they price up to make a profit after paying the person they're selling on behalf of.

This isn't as bad as other examples on this thread, but it rubs me the wrong way when a seller sells a dress they bought from someone else for more than what they originally paid for, even if it's a little bit more. Might just be me, idk.
Pic is one example. I forgot to take a screengrab when the listing had 140 for bid and 200 for BIN.

Another one was a wonder queen set that was sold literally a day after feedback was given for $40 more. The seller even reused the pictures from the original owner. It got sold before I could report for that, though I doubt that would've done anything.

I think this is kind of nitpicky. $10 difference, and she's shipping it for free? It's not like she's trying to make a profit, perhaps she wants compensation for shipping materials and effort involved taking it to the post office.

Or she could be weird like me, and I have a strange obsession with the number 5. 150 is a much more appealing number to me than 140.
