>> No.7133081

The shopping service also buys your stuff, consolidates it into one shipment, and ships it to you. Otherwise, you'll have to pay shipping individually for each shop you buy from, IF they even ship overseas in the first place.

I'm using taobaonow at the moment and brought a few things on sale. It calculates it as the most expensive price on the page (full price), however, I made a note that it was on sale + the proper price and when they invoiced me the invoice the total price had been adjusted accordingly.

When they invoice you for payment just double check that it's been adjusted properly (ie. the extra 20 yuen or whatevs has been slashed) and if not message them about it. I've found them ridiculously fast + helpful so far.

I have never bought a dress off off Taobao, and it's my first dress, but I wanted the R-Series Dear Friends JSK:

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=20002166556&spm=2014.12317209.0.0

I read that it says on the item's description that it can made custom-sized. Am I reading this correctly?

I usually shop through Yoybuy and have had no issues with custom sized cosplays before, but I sent the money for the deposit but i've been asking the agent if this is available, but I'm not getting clear answers. I assume it's a mixture of me not knowing the right way to ask, but when I did, they just said, "then what's the custom size that you want?"

Would I just then ask what measurements are needed? I don't want to be rude or keep asking too much. Or, should I consider buying this dress through another SS?

Can I get some help understanding the following Elpress pages for a bolero? The broken english translation and my headache isn't helping at all.

So is this just a deposit page for the bolero?:
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w4004-3339461615.12.kvGEIZ&id=17665410120

And is this the page where you pay off the remainder of the cost?:

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1.w4018-3339461624.5.HAhOLq&scm=1007.168.0.0&id=24778152212&pvid=9ad5af64-4337-4763-b61a-5c4d33152d2a&jlogid=p0811174256487


And finally, is this page just for a different design bolero or for a third payment for the same bolero?:

http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=2013.1.w4018-3339461624.1.HAhOLq&scm=1007.168.0.0&id=24778492919&pvid=9ad5af64-4337-4763-b61a-5c4d33152d2a&jlogid=p08111744b522e

Judging from what has been said, they didn't order enough headbows or wristcuffs for all of the orders placed.

Not to say that waiting that waiting 7 months for a stupid dress is insane, and bad on KL's part, but glad you like it at least! I know someone wrote a lengthy rant on how thin the chiffon was, and I've seen similar complaints in other threads. I think if you're too used to the thick volume of Mozarabic Chant, it's kind of hard getting used to thinner material. That happened to me with the Dark Box galaxy dress - the fabric was pretty weird and thin but overall the quality of the fabric and construction was fine (the fitting? Not so much). And I think on top of that, I guess for the wait I'd expect something more. Like a lot more.

The wait was insane, I can agree to that. But the material didn't leave me disappointed. I have the Mozaraibic skirt and it's nice and all, but if the OP were in that heavy of a material, I don't think it would have the same flow/shape that it does.

As for the other details and Dark Box ... were you as baffled as I was about the lining being made of chiffon instead of regular material? THAT still confuses me. I know the materials are light weight and all, but. Chiffon lining?!

Any tips for making a relatively small order?
Say I want 4 tshirts or something.

Now you mention it, both the dresses I ordered (Akane and Alois and this Dark Box dress) actually both came with chiffon linings. I honestly didn't notice, but I was kind of surprised how breezy the Dark Box dress was overall - somehow I thought it'd be the heavier slippery fabric they usually use for the cheap galaxy dresses for some reason. I was actually more surprised to see the chiffon lining on the Akane and Alois dress tbh, since the outer layer is all cotton.

The biggest problem with small orders is that the cheapest shipping method rounds up to the nearest 1 kg (as said in the faq for SAL anyway) so if you only ordered up to say 0.5 kg, that sucks that you have to pay for 1 kg if the SS does round..

Airmail is usually the next cheapest but it can get expensive already. And of course, EMS is expensive for small orders.

So I think it'll still be expensive personally but compared to Western pricing in stores like F21, H&M, etc, it might be slightly cheaper with similar quality to the ones in the store when accounting for shipping.

"EMS is really slow sometimes, it takes too long, as the shipping fee by DHL to U.S.A is almost the same with by EMS, so we ship them by DHL, as it's much faster and more safe."

Has anyone else had an issue with customs in US returning their package to China?

As a preface, absolutely nothing in my order was a knockoff or even questionably so. It was all very basic black clothing. This happened about a month ago. I spent $80 for shipping so I was pretty upset about it, and of course no reason was given when I called the post office to find out what happened. Had my SS check the package for anything weird, maybe even a gift given by a seller, to make sure it's safe to ship. Nothing strange was found and the same package shipped to Japan with no issues.

Just wondering if anyone else in this situation has figured out a reason. I usually go through the customs in LA with no issues, but I moved recently so it went through NY for the first time. I'm reluctant to ship to the US again...


Also, I remember some people discussing the waiting time of Classical Puppets petticoats in the last thread. I ordered one recently and it arrived quickly so it seems they at least keep a ready stock for those.

Note: I've worn them twice for several hours and over 5km

Pros: Super freaking cheap! (only 64RMB) low heel is comfortable for all day wear, "false" clasp makes putting on these shoes a breeze even with long nails

Cons: sole is quite hard (insoles recommended), a bit slippery on some surfaces

*Picky buyers please note as stated on the taobao page, there is small pencil markings from the factory. This can easily be erased.


I haven't had a chance to wear the brown boots yet, but will post a review once I wear them for several hours

So I just asked TBTrends for a refund on my Foxcherry order that I made on the 14th of September, since I heard the shop owner was very ill and I wasn't expecting my order to be placed.

Maybe it's just my luck but this last time I used them I just kept having problems. First they act as though the seller must be online the moment they make purchase, which from my previous experiences they just needed to make contact with the seller to check stock and ask questions, which they did and got an answer. Instead of ordering after my approval they just kept sending me seller offline messages, usually at the very end of shift. Now they've managed to mess up my withdrawal from my Yoybuy account to my PayPal. They claim it was successful on the 11th, when I had submitted it. My Yoybuy account history shows this, but I have neither received a confirmation email from PayPal nor has it shown up yet. What bothers me is I've been checking my account history on Yoybuy these past two days and until last night the status of my withdrawal said something about checking PayPal email yet it supposed went through on the 11th. I double and triple checked that I input the correct PayPal email too. I have no clue whats going on.

I wasn't going to write anything about Yoybuy here until I saw your post. My recent issue with Yoybuy is a bit similar. I've bought using them plenty of times, and recently there was one agent that would not make the order even after I approved to make the purchase.

There went a two days after that I repeatedly said yes, and then had a day of no contact, only until finally them sending me a refund because the item was not out of stock and the seller was offline.

So...I didn't get into the Dear Friends from R-Series reservation in time. It was going to be my first dress. I probably cried more than I needed to, but after that, I'd had similar issues with some Yoybuy agent not ordering after approval. I'm tempted to try again with other common items, but I'm just more wary of it.

>> No.7146633 [DELETED]

Huh, adding to this and further reading your post, I also just checked my bank account. After losing the reservation, I requested to withdraw the money an have it sent back to my account.

Anon with the refund problem, here.
I did manage to hear something back from a Yoybuy agent after I emailed them. Apparently they send the refund via Alipay the same way it was put in the account. Now this is weird because I did one just a week before and picked it via PP and they used PP. I picked PP this time too and now it's getting sent back to my bank. They told me it takes 3-7 days to show up. So my experience is it'll always show up the last expected day. I'd email them though anon.

I deleted my previous comment after just now speaking with them and I got a similar answer about it taing 3-7 days. I'm going to wait it out and see what happens then. I hope it works out for you though, you sound like you had it more complicated than I had.

And I suppose it might be a bad agent. One of the aents midway apologized for the delay, while another one was very distinct.

I have ordered from Dear Celine loads of times with Yoybuy so I'm not sure why they weren't willing to wait for this particular item. It ticked me off because I really wanted that bolero and they never gave me a solid reason why the order was refunded well after it was supposedly purchased.
