Yes to the first, no to the second since my stuff is in storage right now. It's pretty nice quality, but a lot floppier than the pictures look. You have to attach it with the clips they sew into the hat though, otherwise it won't stay on your head.

>> No.9646867

Sorry for newbie question, but I've been looking around and haven't been able to find an exactly straightforward answer so maybe I could hear your guys experiences. I want to make a fairly small order, if everything is in stock, and I place it within the next couple days and pick fastest shipping, how soon do you think an order can get to the US? I know the holidays happening but I'd ideally like to get it by the end of the month, just don't know if it's possible.

>> No.9646868

Oh fucking hell I'm using Yoybuy and somehow didnt hear about any of this, I couldve shipped it out last week and avoided all this but I was waiting for a response from one seller and figured it couldnt hurt to give it an extra day or two.
The Halloween meet I need stuff for is on the 14th; pretty sure I'm screwed despite having spent extra for quick shipping.

Do you know if it's possible to cancel or modify a parcel instruction after submitting it? I only submitted it this weekend so it hasnt even been touched/processed yet.

>> No.9646873

>>9646867
I'd say it is! Usually with my ss (Yoybuy) everything arrives there within about 3 business days from when I order it, barring any sudden out of stock situations or me adding more onto my order. Add another 3 business days for getting it shipped out and however long for your shipping method of choice + any holiday or customs delays and that's your arrival date. Definitely feasible, provided you dont cheap out too much on shipping

All their news shows up on your user dashboard. I'm not sure if you can cancel/modify or not. I'd click on the order and see what pops up for you. I think if you've got DHL or EMS you package may get to you on time though since only DHL is affected and that'll be up on the 8th.

Yeah my dumb ass kept only checking the site on mobile and somehow didnt notice the obvious. Checked their blog page for news every once in a while because that seemed to make sense to me but they havent posted much since the anniversary "sale" so I just assumed nothing much was happening. Feeling pretty stupid now.

I chose E-Express shipping which is basically EMS, speed-wise, so there might be a sliiiight hope? But I'm worried that if they're only gonna get back to the office on the 5th and have a backlog it might not actually ship out before the weekend. In which case with typical Canada customs delays I'm done for

I've never used taobao before, what SS would you recommend for a relatively small order?
I'm a eurofag so need to be able to mark the value down & would prefer not to pay in dollars so I wouldn't have to be charged for using a different currency twice.
If anyone has any experiences they can share regarding customs charges in the EU (especially regarding things such as package sizes - I guess it would be better value to make a larger order, but I'm afraid that would look a bit suspicious on a hugely marked down package) that would be great too.

Anon, will you do a review of the Crucis OP once it gets to you? The last time I ordered a blouse from them and the material was really unbreatheable (it was super plasticky) so it was really hard to wear for extended amounts of time without sweating and overheating. I'm just curious to see if the material for the OP is different because I really like their style!

>> No.9648339

It's because Paypal cracked down a while back on bootleg items which caused a lot of SS places to suffer because Paypal refused to let them use their website. (That's why Yoybuy switched to card/money-order only for a while, they couldn't use Paypal)

You should be fine to use Paypal though to buy it. It's like an automatic alert that's kinda wonky where every time I open my cart the alert switches to different items. I think they have it set to keyword recognition or something?

As long as it's not an actual brand bootleg you'll be fine.

Any good stores with Ouji/boystyle/aristo/etc pieces? Didn't see any in the list-- got some good things with using the "prince" tag but only one really nice store (with everything only for reservation, unfortunately).

Stuff like coats, vests, jabots, less-frilly blouses, etc... Thanks in advanced, anybody!

how long do taobao preorders take?
I finally caved and did my first taobao order for this dress.
The preorder just ended, and my ss says it'll take 1-4 months before they ship them out. However, on the listing it says "发货时间
最晚2017-10-24 23:59:59前" which google translates to "Delivery time
The latest 2017-10-24 23:59:59 before"
I don't wanna get my hopes up but if anyone knows what that means or has any experience it'd be greatly appreciated!

Here's a nice one I found, although I'm quite lost when it comes to whether or not it's a reservation, or showing to be pre-purchased later, all the information are on pictures so I can't read it.

It's all lovely and edgy, though, right up the ally I'm looking for. (If anybody can translate, I might have a question about a few of the listings...)

A deposit listing on Taobao works that you pay the deposit, they make it, and once it's ready to be shipped you pay again and then they ship it, correct?

If you're ordering straight off of taobao, that is. I've done it before, but I'm not sure if I've ordered something with a deposit. I plan on making a big order-- should I just go and deal with a shopping service for the ease? I plan on pre-ordering something now and then having it wait in a warehouse after it's made until I make an 11/11 order.

Guys, it's been ages since I put in a taobao order - I want to buy a bunch of craft supplies (so basically lots of small items) and I went to use TaobaoRing but their damn webcart keeps pricing things incorrectly (marks things as costing 99 RMB instead of 0.27 for many supplies).

Is there a better shopping service for a really meticulous order? I've used Pruany's spreadsheet option before but I noticed that the shopping service spreadsheet says they often overcharge (which would be likely for an order like mine because it's gonna be a fucking bitch to process).

Any suggestions?

So in trying to reserve Dolly Cross Hospital, I was successful in reserving the head piece, but when I went to buy the dress I realized you can't use foreign cards on pre-orders. So now I just have this singular head dress that will be coming to me via forwarding service.

My question is, is it worth it to add some more things to my order? Or is it economically reasonable to just have this one stupid thing in my order.

>> No.9657635

>>9657534

There's a couple of things here.

The first is the charge per kg. For my country the minimum is 1kg, and I'd estimate a headdress to be under 0.5kg. Definitely worth it to throw some small useful items into the order, something like hairpins and hairclips, or paperclips, or silicon cup covers and washing sponges, small-sized things that won't take up a lot of weight or volume, because they essentially ship for free if their combined weight/volumetric weight remains below 1kg.

If you exceed that 1kg weight though, you'll be paying for another 1kg, so it's not worth it to order too much/too big/another dress.

The second is the preorder timing. Even if Dolly Cross is meant to ship out this month, there's always the chance the brand is slow and late. So what I'd recommend is to wait until you get the notice that the headdress has shipped, then go out and find some small objects to pad out your parcel with. Or, have them saved to your cart but wait until the headdress has shipped before you check out the cart. Chose shops that promise to ship within 24 or 48 hours, don't give yourself another headache buying from a lolita shop that might take another month to send you your stuff.

I think that that angle wouldn't be flattering for most. However, I wear chinese size 42 shoes, and all the shoes I've bought from taobao have looked pretty normal on me? I'm really skinny, so I dunno if it's that or if it's because I choose shoes with cute bows and a lot of straps.

I need your help anons. Do you guys know stores that are selling black bags for lolita?

I'm looking for a simpler styled shoulder bag or handbag that can be combined with different substyles. I'm mainly interested in Gothic and Classic, so I'd be nice if it could be used in both of them. Think of it as a "goes-with-everything" kind of bag I'm searching.

F.e. I like pic related, but the printed cross is kind of restricting the utility for classic.

I've used tbt forwarding a few times. You can either submit a normal order with the note to only use the forwarding service, or what I do is similar to the built-in one (purchase with my own account and ship to the address given by tbt).

I've been overcharged by TaobaoRing before along with them forgetting to put an item in a group order (a pair of shoes) and then trying to get us to pay for them to be shipped solo even though it was their fault. We ended up having to pay for 50% of the cost just to get them.

The only complaint about Yoybuy's weight issues I have is with DHL and that they tell you about before you select it so it's not their fault. If the dimensions is more than the weight they charge by box size so the weight estimate they use to charge by default for every order may be less than the fee so they have to charge you the remainder.

Other than that I've got no complaints about shipping prices.

I've been using superbuy for about 2 years now I think, and I've never had a problem. Only issue is that they sometimes overcharge for shipping, which you then have to seek a refund for once you receive your package. Their customer service is also quite good, although expect some broken english, but they're always happy to clarify. I actually use them to buy fake clothes too - not Supreme - and have never had an issue, any flaws that were on a purchase I made in their QC pictures were the same as when I received the item. I've got an elaborate cosplay on the way to them now which they did a good job of helping me purchase too. I've only used Yoybuy, Taobao direct and them, but I would say they're the best option overall.

I use it for basically anything I want to buy from taobao, mostly clothes and crafting stuff.
I try to buy from at least 5 shops to make it worth it, but tbt (and most agent forwarding services I imagine) offer small packet for lighter/smaller packages.
I prefer the forwarding service because I'm usually buying straight from the shops (don't usually have to communicate with them) and find the direct conversion rate with my CC and no SS fees worth it.
Google Translate has gotten me through any problems I have with the seller (sometimes I get sent the wrong item/wrong number of items/something is out of stock), but if that intimidates you, it's better to use an SS. Also, you can't order from secondhand/2.taobao without a Chinese bank account, so you still need an SS for that.

I'm having some major issues with taobaoring. They used to be brilliant but in the last year there has always been some issue with an order. For example we would send the money over via bank transfer only for them to keep asking for us to sent 30 dollars which is supposedly missing.

They've changed their banking system since we last used them and are saying that thepayment is listed under the bank we use, and not a person. We've sent everything we can in terms of information, but this order has been sitting dead in the water for at least a week now and I have no power over reversing the charge to wash my hands of this.

Decided to place my first order using Yoybuy the other day. Went on today to check up on things, and I was refunded for about 6 items and the reasoning they gave was "link doesn't work." When I click on the link it works just fine for me? Am I stupid or did I provide a faulty link or something?

You'd think this would be no big deal, but they locked my items in one big shipment and I can't move the pre-order items out now. I messaged them and they said I need to do it as they're afraid of moving the wrong items out. But how? They locked everything.

You buy them separately, they're around $10 per one. They have two blouses that match + a JSK and two skirts. They're for sale on the listing for the long sleeved blouse. The ivory is slightly darker than the photos, but matches pretty close to some of my beige IW.

I really like the ruffles on the peter pan collar, thick and wide enough to cover the entire shoulder area. Pretty good for the price. The jabot one ties in the back and the peter pan collar one has a metal clasp in the front and a tie.

Hey there! Pretty new to cgl. Can someone point me to any cute, cheap Japanese/Korean street fashion? I'm not sure what the style is called. I've bought things off storedogdog.net and http://brave.storenvy.com/, so i'm looking for an aesthetic quite similar to those. Thanks gulls!

Honestly I think you'd come out a bit cheaper when ordering from shops like Yesstyle when it comes to normie clothing,
most agents charge extra costs + shipping costs to US/EU is expensive as fuck when it's over 2 kilos while Yesstyle ships for free around 30 usd.

Using "开衫lolita" brings up some good ones.


Also, does anybody know whether it'd be a better idea to buy straight from taobao or go through a shopping service for non-preoderable things? I've done both before, but I'm wondering if it's worth-it cheaper.

Mainly for shipping, I'm planning on doing a big order with my SO (we might each have ~$200 worth of junk)

Has anyone had issues with Infanta? I just got a blouse of theirs and they completely missed putting button holes on the sleeves. The buttons are there, but there's no holes. I don't have the ability to add them, but it's really not worth it to send back and get a new one.
