Does anyone know how Chibi Tenshi handles reservations? Do you pay up front or after you reserve? Does she do it in-store or online? I'm debating whether to use her or just try my luck online.

[Anonymous No.7544421]

Can someone help me figure out which color option is the pink and white? Is it the deep x qian powder?

>>7544418
Do you mean release or reservation? Most reservations have a set time frame in which you place your order. There is no 'luck' involved, only placing an order before the closing date.
If you mean release, then Chibi takes payment only after she has secured the item and prepared to ship.
Most of the time for releases she will go in-store. Her odds would be the same as yours trying online.
Hope that helps!

A lot of Baby and AatP's reservations are limited, though, which is what I'm hoping to go for. The site can crash/be buggy when there are so many people going for it, too, hence the "luck."

What does everyone think about this dress? Lady Sloth's designs always look meh or off (especially with prints), but I'm digging this cut.

[Anonymous No.7544502]

I like it but I think the bow should be slightly smaller as right now it totally cuts the bodice off from the rest of the dress and makes it unbalanced looking.

Recently saw this on Baby's site and I kinda love it. I don't usually like that chiffon rose fabric, but I've never seen it used on a lolita dress before and the effect is neat. The pearls on the bodice and waist area are cute too.

My first coord came in the mail! Aside from my skirt's dire need for a date with an iron and that I need to shave my stubble, do I at least pass as a lolita girl?

The reservation lottery is instore and it's over. You can only buy online now through the webshop. They keep track of your name so people who bought during the first time around can't buy the second time, so you wouldn't be able to use a shopping service if they already got it before.

[Anonymous No.7545417]

So I've got a situation I'm kind of unsure of how to deal with. This isn't lolita related, but maybe someone else has dealt with something simlar and can give some advice:

>december '13 participate in gofundme for custom plush prototypes
>goal reached, payment comes out of account on jan 14 '14
>two months go by without update from designer
>send message asking for updates end of Feb
>'oh anon, no updates yet, just waiting on the prototypes from the factory! Will post pictures as soon as they arrive!'
>two months later, now is May, no updates, designer posts on tumblr constantly about other things in life, new pets, etc, w/e, she is obviously active and online
>Ok, w/e, send message to manufacterer, asking about the project, how many prototypes had been sent, etc
>'Anon, we haven't even received payment for those prototypes... and the invoice wasn't requested until March, for half the cost of the gofundme. And we haven't been able to get in touch with the designer either.'

Well ok, at this point, she's stopped updating her tumblr (4 days now), curiously on the same day that I started talking to the factory (maybe they let her know I was asking?). I sent her a final, polite, message asking for clarification and noting that the factory would like her to return their messages as well.

tldr - funded a project, didn't get updates, talked to factory, found out price was wildly off and invoice hasn't been paid

do I make a big post on the gofundme page for other contributors to see? this girl is a big sjw type and pretty defensive in a lot of tumblr posts i've seen and I kind of don't want the wrath of her fans to come down on me, but I want to dispute the charge and let other people know...

>>7545431
Well I have the emails from the manufacturer saying they hadn't received payment (as well as voicemails with the invoice date/price, but I don't think I can share those recordings legally). And I'm going to ask if it's possible that he scan and send me the invoice, so there's proof that the price quoted is completely different than the amount she put on the page. Also, I think I can still refute the CC charge, I have the option on my account. It just seemed so weird, since she's pretty active in a lot of different communities, she actually did request an invoice from the factory, etc. But I'm probably just trying to make myself feel like I didn't get scammed in my head, heh

Do you mark the package at the post office as a gift or goods? Is there any way the buyer would be charged customs?

[Anonymous No.7545847]

>>7545398
As one of the non international shippers; my local post office is an absolute horror to deal with, so my personal reason that I don't ship internationally is that you couldn't pay me enough to have to go through filling out customs forms and international tracking and such with them. It's not always just the cost.

A lolita forwarder would be great though, both for Americans who don't want to deal with the customs paperwork and for international buyers who want American-sold items....

Just to let you know, you can print labels from the USPS website so you don't have to deal with your post office directly for all that.

You just put in the weight of the parcel and choose your service. So long as its under the maximum measurements, you're set. Add insurance or tracking, fill out your customs forms, pay and print. Then you just drop it off. They've really made it quite simple. I think that the shipping is actually cheaper online than in the post office, too.

[Anonymous No.7545884]

>>7545879
Ok, why do you have to go to the post office for int'l packages but not others? Standard USPS m.o. is to not ship packages deposited in mailboxes over 13 ounces unless you take them to the post office. If you get USPS pickups, they take int'l packages when they pick up along with everything else. What's your reason for having to take only int'l packages to the post office, but nothing else?

Yeah, international addresses rarely make any sense. Also they are usually way too long for the customs form. Why do so many international people have like five names?

[Anonymous No.7545906]

>>7545838
I always mark as a gift and write "used clothing" after the item description on the customs form. If you're getting insurance, remember that the marked value for customs is how much you can get insurance for. Insurance is to protect YOU, the seller. If the package is lost or damaged, the buyer can just file a Paypal claim, Paypal will refund them out of your account, and you'll be screwed out of the money. If you marked a $400 dress as value $50, you can only be reimbursed $50 through the insurance claim process. I always mark and insure for full value (the total amount the buyer paid via Paypal).
If the buyer will be hit with customs charges and for how much differs by country.

Not everybody has a good scale, and the weight being off by a gram or the size/type of parcel not being input directly can make a big difference in price. If the postage isn't right, enjoy having it spend forever in "return to sender" limbo

I don't know about that anon, but I don't have a mailbox for the postman to pick up from, and I work all day, so I can't hand it off to the, either. The only times I get to go ship packages is on Saturday, when the lines are long already.

[Anonymous No.7545918]

>>7545911
Good scales are really cheap. And if you are unsure, overestimate by 2-3 ounces. It doesn't actually make that much of a difference in the price and it's still cheaper than the post office price.

It's not hard to input it it's literally a drop down menu with like 5 options, most of which are flat rate boxes that you should know if you are using or not.

ehh so how is international hard? if it's filling out the customs form, just ask for extra customs forms when you go. They will be happy to hand you a stack and you can fill it out before you go.

I don't know why people like this site over BL/Antaina/SS. Their shoes are so ugly, like their TPs have a really flat, normalfag flats type look. It's really lacking in the bubble toe cute factor that AP and SS's have. Those shoes are just a rip-off of the IW lace shoes + brogues. They also have terrible communication and timing issues, plus quality and delivery problems. Like that girl who waited ages and was promised free shoes but never got them.

The only upside I can possibly think of is people in the US would get them quicker since it ships from Mexico, but with their production issues that's not even possible.

in the US you cannot use a small customs form for tracking, at least, that's what my post office told me. my post office also told me that there is not a tracked international shipping option (when there is) and seemed completely confused when I told them there is a tracked option... also, to be fully under the paypal tos, it's something like 40-50 USD for a medium package (like a dress)

I personally don't mind doing international packages, but it's frustrating for a lot of people not really (in my experience) because of the paperwork, since that's pretty easy, but because of the ignorance of the post office staff.

Also, fuck the USPS for generally being a pos.

>>7546125
You and >>7545941 are talking about different envelopes, I think. Most post offices only carry the cardboard, unpadded flate rate envelopes, which are very stiff and thin. If you're talking about the soft, padded flat rate envelopes, yeah, they're amazing, but many post offices don't carry them.
I should really just invest in some (you can order them from the USPS website but have to pay for shipping), but I'll be leaving the country for 13 months, so it seems sort of pointless now.

Well. I am willing to pay for it. I won't whine about it, even if shipping is more than the price of my $40 item. If I want small items with cheaper shipping (like not $50 shipping for a necklace) I ask for first class and send gift payments.
Please don't call us all whiny buyers who will whine about customs and shipping, I assure you, this is not the case about everyone.

I'm in Europe. And I have to go to the post office for every single package, even domestic. The shipping is horribly expensive, we get hit by customs pretty often (and here customs are 20% of package value + 20 euros + 5% in customs fees if big value).

>>7545859
I'm thinking about doing the same too.

Don't get me wrong, I ship out of the US, as I'd be stupid to limit my buyer base by not doing so. I just hate having to deal with a lot of non-US buyers who want me to ship their $200 dress with tracking to Australia for $20 or less. It's not going to happen.

Also, with LM allowing people to buy without talking to the seller at all, I've had like three people either try to get me to cover the shipping cost, back out of the sale, or really fucking whine about it and attempt to push me to use cheaper options.

I think most of the people who are "US/Canada only" are likely either sick of dealing with people like this or are ignorant/inexperienced when it comes to shipping internationally.

They are ok, but I wouldn't buy another one. Too many small annoying details. I'd rather save up for something else. For example the thread they used was completely different color from the fabric, they had forgotten to do one button hole, sleeves are super awkward length, the serging inside the blouse is good enough but not really as good as I hoped . Also the sizing generally is a bit off, weird since they had my measurements. Everything is a bit too big. I might have had some other complaints as well but can't remember them anymore. I have worn the blouse only once.

Yeah if it is actually the middle of May that makes me super happy. I got the ivory Medaille, I fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. Is there a picture of the green out? I haven't seen it and green usually isn't a hit so I was surprised it's so popular.

I've only been able to find photos of the skirt in green. I loved the way the green looked in the print samples, and I also love the green of FRM, so I went for it.

I think it will go up in value too, although probably less so with the rerelease. I actually like it just as much or more than FRM but initially the similarity is what drew me in, which was probably their intention. I know the religious imagery throws some people off but the pattern looks so beautiful and cohesive to me. Not 100% in love with the straps/bodice trim on their own but they can be made nice with the right blouse.

Americans though, it's just being lazy.
Perhaps you got a few bad international buyers. But no need to lump the rest of us in with them.
If you have had such a bad experience with international buyers, why don't you just state that you will only send international with tracking and insurance. More expensive that way, and will keep away those flakey buyers.
I'm paying for shipping, so I fail to see how difficult it is to go to a posts office, ask for a customs form and fill it out.

I'm going, anon, and I am so fucking lost on what to wear.

Usually for gigs, I go for wearing as little as possible so I don't overheat. I always wear the same pair of sturdy boots to protect my feet from being stomped on though. I don't usually care much about appearance, so it's normally shorts of some sort and a crop top or vest, hair tied back in a ponytail.

This gig, however, I get the feeling people will be dressed to the nines and I might regret it if I don't dress up. But I know I will also enjoy it way less if I am overheating and unable to move under layers of clothes. I also don't want to sweat all over my burando.

Anyway, I have little dipper's long chiffon underskirts. They're not mind blowingly high end couture, but they are solidly made, everything serged, nothing falling apart. Regular taobao quality, in other words.

Some anon has said that their underskirt was too loose and kept sliding down, mine was all right, I even wore mine for a day out. I'm usually a size L in taobao terms, the other anon is size S or something like that, so that might have been why.

[Anonymous No.7549437]

Are you asking because you're thinking of selling handmade items?

Personally speaking, I don't care how it's finished as long as it's finished; ie if the choice is pay more for french seams or just have it serged, I'd definitely choose serged. I'm not expecting nor looking for my lolita items to last me decades; it's honestly not really necessary like it might be with very high end garments that you might be buying to use frequently and have for life like a really nice evening dress or a sturdy coat.

Sure it's nice to have, but it isn't needed, and can unnecessarily raise your labor costs and therefore your pricepoint.

(If you're not asking to sell things, then ignore the tl;dr and I guess 'I don't cosmetically prefer one or the other either way' would be my short answer.)

It's not even "codenote," though. It's something more like "coudineito," which is just the romanization of "coordinate."

Gyaru is something different from gal as it's used in the West, so I get that. Coordinate in Japanese and in English in this fashion mean the same damn thing.

Idk, the closet of frills is bursting at the seams with entry level weebs, so I shouldn't be surprised by this.

Anyone have this blouse? The lace looks cotton, and the design seems comfortable and less wonky than a lot of the other cotton type blouses they carry. The removable sleeves I can see being awkward, though.

>the romanization of an english word is not the english word

That's just how they pronounce it in Japan, it's not the "romanization."

They use the english word, the romanization is the English word. The Japanese just have a lot of trouble pronouncing English words.

I had it. The lace is nice, the fabric is kind of stiff. The detachable sleeves are okay once you get them on. I found it looks best under a jsk. I sold mine, because I find most brand blouses more comfortable than bodylines crappy papery fabric, but as far as bodyline blouses go it's alright.

DHL is actually pretty safe. My biggest order was about 2500USD through DHL and I've done several smaller orders through them and no customs.

FedEX is the one you have to be careful with when it comes to customs charges. UPS too on a smaller scale. But I've been ordering EMS (which goes through USPS) and DHL for years from taobao with packages marked at full value and never paid customs.

Yes, customs charges do happen rarely. And I'm sure they sometimes happen with DHL so if someone asks me about customs charges I always tell them to just go through SAL or EMS since USPS is the safest when it comes to customs.

Personally I love DHL if I have a large order (they do their charges based off of volume instead of size plus weight, and a lot of taobao sellers/SS have good DHL discounts) because it arrives within about 3 business days from China, and they actually call your cell phone when they are on the way to deliver it.

AP's done this before, sorry for the shit picture but check out Tartan Doll's fit. The max bust size is 89 cm and it's 82 cm long including the tulle layer. I'm 160 cm tall and the tulle ruffles hit right at mid-thigh on me (but since they're tulle it shows even more leg than that, so the dress is really only covering about 76 cm). I can't imagine wearing a dress this short with no defined waist though, one good gust of wind and everyone will know what brand your bloomers are.

On the one hand, of course no brand has to cater to larger sizes if it isn't going to be ultimately profitable for them. AP caters flexible sizing but I understand why it probably wouldn't be profitable for them to release multiple sizes, given that some prints go crazy while others aren't popular at all and might not sell. That said, I don't think that means no one can complain. I'm bummed sometimes when dresses don't fit me, and I can be sad that they don't and bitch a little about my disappointment, but that's not the same as demanding that a brand provide clothing that fits me. I get that brands do what they gotta do, but I still receiver the right to self-pity every once and a while.

AP has said before they don't catering to people of unhealthy sizes. I applaud them for marketing their brand to those that can fit their clothes.
