So I know that forwarding is limited to "20 orders" (basically 20 stores unless you make separate store orders) but does anyone know if there's a limit to how much you can buy from one store? My cart is filling up with tons of little knickknacks like pens that won't take up much space/weight, but I'm pushing over thirty items from one store alone. Probably not going to get everything but. I usually only get a few things from each store.

I am legitimately ass pained. I put in an order 2-3 days before the pre-order closed for the new Angels Heart JSK. They closed the preorder like a day early and my SS didn't get to it in time. I'm never going to find this dress second hand. Ever. I was almost in tears, which in retrospect is absurd for a dress. MLD has it for...get this...DOUBLE the original price. And that's before shipping too. I'm actually mad over a dress. If anyone catches wind of ready stock being available PLEASE post it.

I don't think so, I don't see why it would be a problem especially if they are just small items. The max i got were about 15 pens from one store though if you need a reference point.

Hello! So the items it came with was: Skirt with a 'petti' and underskirt attached, a large bow for the front of the skirt, one tube top with the name, one pair of fingerless gloves, one pair of OTKs, shiny pom poms, a small bag containing invisible straps and some.. plastic .. thing I still don't know what it's for

>Skirt
I really like the skirt. It was better than I thought it was going to be. The pleats hold on really well and it's thicker than I thought as well. The 'petti' and underskirt is cheaper but its fine. No one can see it. The skirt goes to the waist line with an invisible zipper on the side. The lines at the top of the skirt seems painted on? The edges of the lines aren't super smooth but no one will be able to tell anyway

>Top
The tube top is made of a stretchy material with the names and letters screen printed on. It has a small loop for the invisible straps. Even when stretching it out, it doesn't seem to destort the letters at all unless you have a really large chest

>Pom poms
The pom poms are kinda cheap but I understand why they chose that type of fabric for the shine. I might get replacement ones cause the ends of it are already starting to fray playing around with it

>OTKs and gloves
They're made from the same fabric as the tub top. They're both pretty stretchy but not too much. I always have a problem with anything like socks from TB to not fit me but these do so I'm happy. The star and stripes are screen printed as well . The socks kept scrunching down so sock glue might be needed

There is also the yard of plastic boning and clear capsule that I still can't figure out what it's for. There aren't any slits I can put it in as far as I can tell.

Picture of items (Upper Left Clockwise: Pom poms, plastic thing, socks and arm pattern, tube top fabric and screen print) Sorry it's wrinkly, I just stuffed it back in the bag

Biggest order was probably my latest one, at 11.36kg. I swear, it gets bigger every time. I usually try to stick to a budget- key word being 'try' because I also always go over a bit. I usually buy things that I need (want) for cosplay/lolita, but near the end of my order, I tend to impulse buy a lot because I stop giving any fucks about my package weight (also I only place orders ~twice a year).

Yep! I'd say the sizing is pretty accurate, i bought one size larger incase of socks. They're comfortable and the quality is fairly nice except the fabric inside the shoe isn't glued down perfectly all around but that doesn't really affect the wearablity. The overall outside finish is really good for the price though. The shoes were actually inside 2 boxes, the shoebox itself and then another box outside that.

Fits really uncomfortably on my head. Its like a tiara kind of thing and it ends up either being half falling off or stabbing you in the side of the head. I'm sure theres some way you can pin it to your hair but i can't quite figure it out.
In the 5 mins after i took it out of the box, 2 of the crystals fell off but they include a few replacement crystals in different sizes, glue and also a lot of bobby pins.
The listing picture is quite accurate in terms of appearance except for the metal being maybe a tad darker irl.

Hey /cgl/. It's my first time buying anything from taobao and I'm using taobaring. I don't have a credit card/bank account/paypal, so I wanted to pay with etiher western union or money gram. Thing is, taobaoring asks you to convert your currency to USD and my country has another kind of currency. I have no idea what this means or what I'm supposed to do. I would also want to know what "bank transfer" means. I'm sorry for so much questions, it's my first time so I have no idea on how to do things. Any kind of help is appreciated.

>> No.8510663

>>8510581
It converts the currency automatically. So for example my currency is the pound and when I pay on taobaoring it automatically converts it for me.
Bank transfer I think means the transfer of money to another account? So for example you transfer money to taobaoring?

Hello, newbie here. Sorry if stupid question/wrong place/read FAQ, but does anyone know if Taobao ships directly to Australia?

Taobao has their own forwarding services now.

An Australian anon a couple of threads back said they preferred the forwarding service, partially because they can communicate directly with the seller, and because of the direct currency conversion.

I already asked this here >>8504671 but I received no answer so far.

Is the skirt too tight to pull down to at least 2 inches below your belly button? Every picture I see online or on instagram of someone wearing it, it's always above their belly button. I love it but Id rather have it low rise it honestly looks really stupid having it right at the middle of your waist.

Do you think I could request the skirt be a certain measurement to go around my hips or am I better off telling them my "waist" is the same as my hips...Im just worried that would mess up my top though, but I can always tailor it.

Oh sorry I didn't see it! The seller I bought it from, I believe all of them are supposed to be waist high. There are some that might go lower. If you want to order it from that seller or similar sellers, if your hip is more closer to your waist measurements, it might work? Mine is 10inch difference so it won't budge

I was looking at that seller's listing that you linked and I think that should go sitting at hips but you can always ask your SS to ask the seller if itll be below the belly button
Don't risk putting the waist measurement as hip

Aussie anon here! Yes they do (through a forwarder though, not directly through the sellers), and you can get an alipay voucher from auspost to charge up your alipay account with but from experience it doesn't save that much money compared to if you use debit/credit, and you can only buy set amounts of it so if you don't use the money in one go it'll just sit around in your account.

My preferred forwarder is 4px. Haven't tried lequgou and I don't really like ZTO because they go by volumetric weight instead of actual weight like 4px does.

I just received my jsk from Sweet Loreley, apologies for the shit collage, I'm on my tablet.

The details and print quality are absolutely stunning, and they included some artwork and a small gift.

The colour was described as indigo blue but it's definitely a rich purple but I don't mind.

I don't have any worn photos as I don't have a full length mirror but it sits at about knee length on me at 5"3 and it has a lot of shirring so it's very comfortable.

Overall, very happy with this jsk and would consider buying from Sweet Loreley again.

Has anybody had problems with an order on pruany going into negative numbers because a payment failed? It's the second time it's happened to me now, and by now I think they are trying to get more money out me - why recharge the money if they payment hadn't gone through?
