Posting this over here too, but does anyone know where/if there is somewhere selling white versions of these tights? Either tights or OTK/thigh high versions work. Especially of the diamond print ones?
Ebay and internet searches turn up 0 results.

A kind anon in another thread was able to help with finding a link for a pair of the striped ones in white.

Or if you know what search words I should use on Taobao to help. Not sure if white diamond stockings directly translated would be correct.

Though, I recall when the print was released, there was some issue of rights with the photographer from whom she got the prints, so assuming from that he owns those images wouldn't it be his images that were stolen, not hers? Offtopic sage...

http://queenlive.taobao.com/ has quite a few. but you can also just look up the search terms for plus size and tights from petrovna's dictionary and use those to search yourself. sort by credit to get the shops with the highest rankings, and you can also select merge seller to group search results by shop

>>7078120
I've only been half-paying attention to everything about krad lanrete, but afaik preorders aren't even open yet. egl and/or cgl will probably explode the day they do actually open up, and at that time you can ask your SS to put in an order for you

>awkwardly small chest

Do you have the chest where it slopes so there's an awkward gap where the bra doesn't touch your chest? Because that is what I'm cursed with. That fucking feel, anon, that fucking feel.

They used to be really good but then they seemed to be overwhelmed with orders over the Chinese New Year and so they became quite slow to respond. It never really picked up speed again, so you can be waiting a long time to even get an invoice from them, but other times you might get it the next day. There's just no real way to know whether you'll be waiting so long your item will sell out, or if you'll be quick. Even emailing them to tell them it's an urgent order doesn't guarantee you'll get it quicker.

This is my new favourite website. Thank you so much for this! I wish the industry had a better bra sizing system than just ribcage/cup - something more akin to how some places sell jeans these days, where you can get something like 28/long leg/cigarette cut or 36/regular leg/boyfriend cut.

>>7078738
TBR was brilliant up until Chinese New Year 2013, when they took time off (understandable, as everyone needs a break from delivering frilly dresses to ungrateful weeaboos, and since most Taobao shops would be shut for the holiday anyway). Unfortunately, a combination of their absence and TBR's increasing workload on account of being the best shopping service meant they were swamped in orders. Many they simply never bothered with (until they were nagged via email). I was hoping they'd recovered some speed by now, but apparently they haven't.

No problem!
There are already terms that we use to describe bras, these can be plunge, longline, full cup, balconette etc. Since everyone is different this is as good as it get's. Myself for example (26G/28F) I have close together full on bottom breasts. So I ONLY wear deep plunges, anything else cuts in to my breast tissues and hurt.

To stay related, my plan is to order cute bras off taobao in one of my sister sizes (75D in this case) and shorten the band which is really easy. I love the cute asian style bras and I've been so upset in the past that they don't adhere to modern bra fitting.

Good luck bra hunting!

Not bra anon, but i bought two sets of bra's with panties from taobao. And I was really suprised when they fit me well. Especially the panties because I have this big round butt. One bra had some weird cushion/sock like things stuffed in it, so my mom opened it up and took those out for me, because they gave this ridiculous fake boob effect. And one had this weird clasping system that I still haven't figured out yet, but other then that they were very nice.

I'm about to pay for shipping on my first Taobao order, should I get insurance? Getting EMS, by the way. My order is around $130 and I think my SS ether said they'll mark it as a gift or change the value and I don't know if this will be affected by insurance?

Here's the way I see it (I've bought many orders from taobao, with and without insurance). I've never had an order go missing with EMS but if I'm already dropping $200-300 on the package plus $50-80 on shipping, what's another $15 or so gonna do to me? It gives me peace of mind that if, god forbid, my package did get lost or destroyed, I'd be able to get reimbursed. But since I've never lost one, or even had it take more than a week to arrive, I can't in good conscience tell you it's NECESSARY.

You must have bookmarked one and saved the listing title, right?

At any rate, some things on taobao are seasonal. There are some items that Ive waited too long to get, and when I went to go by them again, the seller would say that they had been put out of stock bc they were out of season.

Those sweaters are barely sweaters and more for spring and summer so that might be what happened. There might still be some on aliexpress or something

I really wish it would be. Real fur just has a lustre to it, and it feels ten times as nice. I don't think we're half as good at imitating fur as we are leather.

I don't wear fur, would never buy it, and I try to stick to buying second-hand leather, but the double standard between fur and leather does confuse me. Yes, leather is a byproduct of the meat industry, but so are some furs such as rabbit.

None of this belongs in this thread at all, though, so I'll shut up.

The biggest concern about getting fur from Taobao is going to be determining what animal it was from. I read a horror story in a Taobao thread once where someone bought a fur jacket that the site said was faux, but 'it smelled like dog'. Lots of cheap Chinese fur products use stray pet animals and stuff, including faux fur, so - just be aware of it.

Don't shut up please, this is an interesting topic and as long as people can be civil about it I think it's okay to discuss this.
You say rabbit furs can be a byproduct but unfortunately they don't come from slaugtherhouses but from buns bred specifically for their furs. The same goes for every animal with a pretty coat and that grosses me out. You don't fucking kill an animal (With torture, often, especially in China. I've seen videos of this and couldn't sleep that night.) because you like wearing some pretty shit. That's just fucking disgusting. Who would do that?
If you want to eat animal products, okay. I don't think you should, but at least food is a necessity. But you don't need a fancy fur coat to stay alive unless you're Inuit. There's a huge difference between killing for survival and killing for vanity. You shouldn't cause suffering if you don't have to.

Except that in the first world you don't have to kill an animal "for survival" you can go your entire life without eating meat if you want to so that's a pretty shitty argument.
Also I really wish people would quit peddling out the whole "THE CHINESE WILL SKIN YOUR PETS!" thing, it's incorrect and pretty fricking racist.
FYI the video you guys keep referencing came from PETA (you know the people that put down more stray and lost pets than anybody else and yet blab on about how cruel people are to animals all the time), and is not a good reference of how fur farming usually happens, people do not skin animals alive because it utterly ruins the pelt when it struggles.
I wonder if the Chinese think that in America chickens are all killed for KFC burgers by having them slammed against walls like in that other PETA video?
Please educate yourself.

The meat is still used, not for humans all the time. But it's usually used for feed if not stew. Not like they slaughter a rabbit and just throw out the meat. China uses everything.

Unless it's a shark.

If you're going to be outraged about Chinese animal practices, be pissed about shark fining. They only bring back enough bodies to get away with the other they dumped back into the ocean.

Shark fin soup has no flavour and the texture is easily replicated.

The ethics of fur and meat are not Taobao related.

Only remotely it can be related asking if items are faux fur or real. Otherwise, you're getting off topic. I go to these threads for Taobao not debates on shit like this, Persian cats (though that was funny), or whatever else.

New anon. PETA didn't make that up or come up with it on their own. There are plenty of sources for it. It also isn't "racist," animals are treated like shit in china, including dogs and cats (notice how this is different than saying "all chinese people treat their pets like shit").

Chinese person here, lemme educate you a thing or two. I'm from Zhejiang province, the largest producer of leather and fur goods in the country, and quite a few of my relatives are in the business (own factories or whatever). Rabbit is cheap, and it's mostly bred for meat. It's pretty commonly eaten up north and NOT as >>7082491 says, for animal feed. It's pretty lean and bony, though very flavorful with good texture. They are NOT skinned alive, which makes no fucking sense whatsoever, but Westerners looooove holding on to this shit because us Orientals are so uncultured and cruel. They are killed with a heavy blow to the head, like fish, and this way the pelt is undamaged and you don't have to skin a live kicking animal. Yes, there ARE animals bred for their fur (my mom has this gorgeous smokey lavender otter coat) but rabbit is not one of them so let your conscious RIP. Animals that are bred for fur tend to be much more expensive, compared to rabbit or sheep pelt (rabbit gloves are like 20 - 40 kuai a pair).

You're right about the video thing, and to the other PETA crusaders here, the organisation is a hypocritical shit hole. Their shelters put down 95% of their animals, and their central concept is any animals that exist for humans (pets, food, labour) should NOT EXIST, as in kill all the domesticated animals ever. However one of the chairs has diabetes, and is okay with using insulin from cows because it keeps him alive so he can help other animals. What a twat. They PAID people to make those horrific 'live skinning' videos

>>7082504
Yes, that article is correct, animal cruelty is a huge problem here in China. The mainland has zero laws regarding it, and people's pets are often stolen off the street and legally turned into livestock with some shoddy paperwork. This is also part of the problem with the still large rural population, who cannot afford morality for animals for their own survival, and part of traditional culture (calling someone a dog is still a big insult). It's also a problem with the owners too, every fucking day on weibo I see people looking for their lost pets, and that would never happen if they put them on a leash, or microchipped them. Nobody here puts leashes on their pets, and no wonder your precious baby gets nicked off the street.

I was talking in terms of what happens to rabbits here, they do get used for feed irregardless(like to work dogs. Maybe pigs if the farmer happens to have them. pigs will eat anything). But mostly they're eaten and made into stew. The point being they aren't wasted. And rabbit is delicious, you can't really buy it here without going out of your way though. Hard to cook too.

There's a video somewhere of a guy who is prepping rabbits for skinning. It's really much more efficient and less cruel to hit the rabbit with a good swing. Down and out. PETA is batshit. That all said, you can't say a good portion of Asia has pretty shitty enforcement of animal welfare. It's bad everywhere, but apparently we're only talking about asia. Though we shouldn't. since this is a tb thread.

Any idea of where baby gets their flowers? I can't find roses with such good quality, and the ones that seem pretty much the same, are like too realistic and include the stem of the rose and everything. I've tried "velvet artificial flowers" "Silk flowers" "diy artificial flowers" "fabric flowers" etc and nothing, any help would be very much apreciated.

these are the best I found, don't think they're velvet/velvety though:

it's pretty much impossible to search for stemless roses (I guess you could try the roundabout way of doing an advanced search but omit words like "branch," but idk if that'd be actually effective)

there seem to be more options if you search 假花玫瑰 diy (fake flower rose diy), and there were a few single-flower type options amid all the bouquet-type stuff if you search for fake flowers > bridal

Here you go anon! Sorry if this collage is huge, I wanted it to be large enough to see all the pictures!

My SS was yoybuy, the dress was $65.79 + shipping $1.98 totaling $67.77. It weighed 0.460kg. I ordered a JSK and skirt along with it, bringing my total to $131.57; my package was light (1.115kg) so I shipped with airmail which cost about $17.

I tried to edit the hanging photos of the dress as best as I could but they're still a bit yellow, so I included a picture of it being worn (my first cord actually hehe!)
The embroidered dots are ALL like that. There isn't a single one that doesn't have threads sticking out. I turned the dress inside out and the underskirt (? not sure what to call it) had markings from what I'm going to assume was production.
The tag on the dress also comes with cleaning instructions! Oh yeah, and the zipper is on the side.

Other than what I mentioned, there was nothing else wrong with the dress, I really love it! I hope that helped you some!

>>7084081
for starters, search brand names, and browse the stores or pull search terms from item names. since dolly kei doesn't have as many notable brands (like cult party incorporates stuff from amo, spank!, etc), you can search for grimoire knockoffs, and sometimes those stores will have more dolly-styled stuff. you can also try searching "vintage" in english + chinese search terms for blouse, dress, etc for dolly

check petrovna's dictionary for specific item names/popular motifs as well. I know there's a search term for peignoirs in there, for instance

I really hate to be "that guy" here, I've read all the tutorials on shopping Taobao that I could find, and signed up, found, and established communication with a store I'm trying ferociously to get a dress from. They figured out a way to charge for EMS as they don't usually ship over seas and everything is set, but they're asking me to confirm the purchase or something? They usually don't get back to me for a few days, which is worrisome because they told me that the transaction will time out after a period of time. I called my bank and got them to remove the hold on my card so I can actually pay but I'm looking all over the site and cannot find out how to actually confirm the purchase/pay. I'm sorry for being such a scrub, and have vowed next time to just use a shopping service, I just have no idea how to do this.

Definitely feel like Krad Lanrete should have stuck with their guns. The empire waist suited the jellyfish theme wonderfully. The bodice just looks completely ordinary here and in no way matches up to the skirt of the dress. Maybe if they considered this design at first, the bodice would be better integrated with the skirt.

I wouldn't buy this but I'd definitely be interested in a skirt still.

Ditto. I thought the empire waist would give it a lovely, floaty look which was well-suited to the dress theme. Plus I was really interested in it as a comfy-lolita dress, something relaxed to wear on lazy days as well as being able to dress up... that said, the print is still hrrrrnngg.

This was released ages ago, like at least a year I think... So if there's any stock left it's probably just leftover presizing.

I'm surprised they have any more, I remember a bit after release I went to buy it but there was almost nothing left. Did they restock at some point??

It has no reviews and only one diamond, so I'm kind of unsure about it. It uses the same picture as the one from hellocosplay, but well, you know how that goes, never trust pictures.

Or any shops you know of with Milky Holmes costumes? This is seriously the only Sherlock one I could find just searching for "Milky Holmes".

They're actually rape/ assault alarms! You pull on the small dangling wing to sound the alarm and push it back in to shut it off. I ordered a bunch as gifts for friends and they all worked and came with batteries! There was no choice for color though, and all the ones they sent me were blue.

The hat is very nice! The tag inside says 100% wool and it does feel like it. It fits well and looks just like the stock pictures. My only complaint is that it came somewhat rumpled and deformed, though I think that was mostly my SS's fault. The brim has cowboy hat style creases on either side from shipping but I believe they can be steamed/ ironed out.

Last time I did the math, international shipping starts at around $30. Since that's where the prices add up, check international shipping and the weight of what you're ordering.

Easiest thing is to avoid small orders. If I was paying for international shipping, I don't think I would buy an order under $50 usd before shipping. If you're gonna pay that much in shipping, you wanna get your money's worth.
So even if you end up spending $100, you've actually bought $300 worth of things.

I recently wanted to buy this dress because they had a couple size smalls in stock again - however I found out from my agent that these leftovers are actually returns because they are defects - the musical notes and the kidsyoyo label are all backwards. You can see it on their page on the black dress stock photos, but the defect is on both the red and black. If it was just the kidsyoyo label I wouldn't have minded but it's really obvious the music notes are backwards...anyways if you translate the page they do warn you of the defect.

Say I marked my parcel down to 100 euro, I'd only have to pay 19 euros tax?

I have a quick question,

I haven't bought anything from Taobao since the springtime dramu over knockoffs and whatnot. I didn't have any issues with my packages at all then, but then again I mostly bought cosplay items.

However my mother's recently discovered taobao and she saw this Hello Kitty backpack she wanted me to buy for my sister along with my items. I know sometimes the post is finnicky when it comes to brand items, so is there a possibiltiy that if I bought and shipped this backpack, would I be facing confiscation?

You need to show your (legit looking) invoice every time,so marking down parcels is pretty difficult.If you mark it down the whole invoice(like you do it with bhiner),don't go under 80% of the original price,that's too suspecious.
It also really depends on the customs officials and if they accept a low invoice,or if they will make you search for the real invoice on their computer.
Don't mark them as gift,german customs don't fall for that anymore.

The only way to avoid customs as good as possible,is to use DHL.

Could anyone here give me a rough weight estimate for something like pic related?
I'm wanting to do a direct order through antaina but I'm trying to roughly estimate shipping costs before I do.

If anybody know where I can get these shoes I would be forever gratefull. I found them on ebay and I have also found them on a chinese wholesale website, but I can't find them on taobao, but judging from the pictures, they seem to be from taobao.

If nobody knows where to find them, I will have to buy them from ebay, but it's twice the price from what it probably costs on taobao, i just can't find them

Also has anyone ordered multiple wigs from http://miumiuluo.taobao.com/ before because looking at the picture, I just noticed that blue thing in packaging with the second wig and can't for the life of me figure out what it was and was wondering if it was something the store just included?

Just finished up an order with Bhiner.
The communications staff's grasp on English has really slipped. I spent 2 weeks in a back and forth trying to tell them what color of shoes I wanted from AnTaiNa (a custom color) and they finally told me that AntaiNa doesn't offer custom colors anymore and ended up sending my my fallback color.
I'm not saying everyone should just learn English, but when that's the main focus of your job...
I think I'll just stick with TaobaoNow from now on.

Can anyone help me find a pink, lolita style fur collar or pink, short cape? I've looked in pretty much the whole dictionary and spreadsheets, even used some copy and paste from some items to try to find one, but no luck or sold out. Even tried etsy. Looking for something like this item, but the pink should be as light as the bow all around.
