/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Alright. So I've already asked my SS about this but they don't seem to understand what I'm talking about. I'm trying to buy the wig and ponytail in the picture. Though, I'm not sure what option to choose from the listing. I was wondering if anyone would be able to help. It'd be appreciated!

http://detail.tmall.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.66.N5HU2n&id=39664130689

Does anyone have any stores that are like mysis they can suggest?

Has anyone had any experience with Angel Feather or Boguta (pics related) I want to get the dresses in the photo but I don't know how the acyal quality from the shop is.

>>7753693
woops, dropped pic

>>7753693
I haven't myself, but the reviews I've read before say that Boguta's quality isn't very good, cheap/disappointing material and construction. I think someone said Bodyline tier?

>>7753705
Aww man that's disappointing. :( The dress looks really nice from the pictures.

Reposting from old thread:
Does anyone know if customs seizes Rilakkuma and Sentimental Circus items? Looking to get a few plushies and home decor.

>>7753713
Naaah, I doubt it. There's always such customs paranoia on these threads despite there being very few reports of parcels being destroyed.

Personally got through some Rilakkuma phone cases and backpacks in bulk and I've seen plenty of order posts including San-x items.

>>7753654

I don't know why it does this, but the way Lucaille puts 'clip-in ponytail' in their item descriptions always translates as 'tiger card'.

You shouuuuuuuld want the 原画版直发+虎卡+呆毛 option. Anyone who speaks more Chinese than my experience with Lucaille+google translate wanna back me up?

>>7753713
>>7753716
Can you please recommend any good shops that sell Rilakkuma things (not just plushies).
Thanks.

Does anyone know if stores ever restock once their item is off the shelf?

I recently found this: http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=24976780440

And I was too late to buy them. I really, really want that purple one, and I'm afraid they're not coming back.

Hey guys, has anyone got a chess story blouse? I think i'm getting this in white http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.5.w4002-5044050165.18.nFypHY&id=40335314918

Any other dresses like this? http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=38072740613

It's super cute.

>>7753722
Aaah. Thanks anon! Hopefully its right. owo I mean, I don't mind the alternate version but prefer the lighter one XD I'll give it a whirl! Thanks for the help!

I'm looking for a blouse with big sleeves to suit witch lolita but haven't found anything. I'd love some help. Thanks

!!transbao anons!!

I'm currently talking with Faya, and she says that the site is gone because of *technical difficulties* and that they will fix everything *soon*. As to the question of getting no responses to my emails and messages for over two weeks asking where they were, what was going on, etc. she says *she was busy*.

FUCK THAT.

>>7753693
Gonna be honest, anon, most of those Meta set knockoffs are absolute garbage. I threw away the blouse that came with mine and then removed the straps and waist ties so it's just a cute sailor skirt.

Just a forewarning to you.

And Boguta is very hit-and-miss in terms of quality.

I need a wig for E, but I want one with a part rather than clip-on pigtails because clip-ins look like shit 80% of the time. Can anyone make a suggestion?

If not a part then at least smaller clips on the pigtails?

Also looking for a more blueish miku wig, but that shouldn't be hard to find.

>>7754493
>E

I had typed Etna, don't know where the rest of the word went.

Anyone know any shops with cute pots? I want to start a little windowsill garden!

So when I go to the item page which has all the thumbnails of the items etc, none of the thumbnails show up anymore (see picture!). It was working completely fine and then suddenly just stopped yesterday. I've tried different browsers and resetting my net (which worked for the whole taobao account saga) but it doesn't work. It worked once in a incognito tab, but never again. It happens to every taobao shop I try even though they worked before.

Can anyone help ? Pretty please!

>>7754541
This has been an ongoing problem since the last thread. I have no clue how to fix it either. So far on this computer it doesn't seem to affect me much (knock on wood) but I typically just keep refreshing and eventually the pictures will appear.

>>7754539
Most SS won't ship things like pots because they can be broken easily.

>>7754551

Dammnit, I was hoping it was just me and there was some easy fix. This is going to kill me until it goes back to normal, haha. Thank you for the reply!

>>7754493
Arda Chibi wig is made as pigtails.

I have a couple of orders going with TBR and one of them has all of the items arrived, except of course the items that changed to "not available after payment" and I guess these items are preventing the gauge from completing. Does this always happen?

>>7753787
I tend to use mermaid (人鱼) and lolita to get the off-centre split dresses
There's also 束身假两件 but the 'fake two piece' gets you heaps of unrelated searches and adding lolita narrows it down too much

I can load my
>cart
>buy baby page
and etc

>>7754551
>>7754555

On a side note, I've discovered that taobao works 100% on my tablet! Woo!

>>7754555
Oh darn. Though that does make sense. Guess I'll just stick to the plain pots at the 99c store. :/

Is it worth it to just purchase one thing from TaoBao? I just found one thing I wanted but I always see people getting hoards of stuff. I don't have much money to spend and I really just want this one item.

>>7754784
Just try ebaying it then, the fees and shipping will end up making it more expensive (which is why people tend to order a lot of things at once)

>>7754481
haha, I guess it's probably more Alipay filing charges because of the complaints/chargebacks that scared them.

>>7754800
I had been looking on Ebay for this particular item for a while. I'm from >>7752428 and someone posted the perfect piece I was looking for [ http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a1z10.1.w7349308-8045777056.6.C3bcYa&id=39031486316 ] and I've tried AliExpress but so far no luck.

I'll keep trying to look though. I was just unsure if it was worth the extra shipping fees since I can't seem to find the brown/or a dark brown variant of that bag.

Thank you though!

>>7754733
you could also see if they can ship metal pot covers. you put your plain clay pot inside and voila, cute pot !

>>7753627
Does clobbao take a long time to answer?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YOkT99FWY6U

how do i find this on taobao? i tried generic hair curler terms but couldn't find this.

>>7754806
Alternatively, you could get together with some friends for a group order - a few little things from a few people and then it makes a decent package that you don't lose out too much on fees

oh my god anon i was gonna order the same bag, but i am worried it looks too cosplayish.

>>7754806
>>7754853
Hello anons. I'm the one who posted the link in the other thread. Just wanted to post this picture my SS sent me of the bag I got. It does look very cosplay-ish but considering I'm using it for a cosplay that works out fine for me. I'll keep looking for different shops that may carry the same bag style though.

>>7755017
i just want some kind of a school bag to go with muh lolita ;_; why can't those british style school bags be found
thanks for the photo

>>7755058
it can't even fit A4, even less fit school files. thanks though.

>>7754586
not usual

>>7754577
I don't really feel like spending $50 though. I'll wear it once and then never again.

Does anyone know of a ss that ships out larger items? TBR just told me they couldn't ship out a Sailor Saturn staff (it comes in three parts) because it was too large and I really don't feel like spending time making one.

gonna second >>7743306 here
the jacket looks really cute and I'd love to get it if it's still available

How lenient is TBR in combining multiple orders? One of my orders has all items arrived and I just placed a new one last night. However, I'm finding more things I want but I'm not sure if I'll piss them off if I just keep continuously making new orders.

>>7755148
Hmm. Used to be prolific. The only link I can find is http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.0.0.YeYJEX&id=37786989859# which is a deposit that will only be made if they reach 50 orders.

Anyone in NYC doing an order soon? Just moved here and don't know anyone to split orders with.

Chinese language anons, I need your help!

Chrome translates pic related as:
>4 pairs free shipping high quality retro totem dark pattern Spring microlens Senior pantyhose stockings jacquard hollow

Is this supposed to say that if I buy 4 pairs of these tights, I get free (domestic) shipping? Just making sure it's not actually 4 pairs for ¥16.80, haha.

does anyone have any good recs for a randoseru, or even just the search term? i want something that i can wear while i'm cycling to get my groceries, so preferably a bright color like red. bonus points if they're wide enough to fit A4 but not a requirement.

>>7755174
I've made three so far and they've combined them with no issue.

>>7755224
Yep, that's correct.

melty moon replica bags anon, how much do they weight please ? I found 400g, but it would be nice to know for sure.

Does anyone know the link to this bag? I know clobba has it but I was wondering if it was on taobao for cheaper.

>>7754609
>>7754851
Thanks to both of you! I really appreciate you trying to help. I wasn't able to find anything as perfect as the white coat I found (http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.14.175.rMhMY7&id=13944447197&ns=1#detail)), but considering I just need this to cut up and use for this thing's gijinka (my cosplay group decided on pokemon, and I didn't want to be too adventurous since I've never even paid attention to gijinkas) I didn't want to shell out over 90 bucks for something I might ruin. I've ordered custom cosplays with taobaospree before, so for about the same price I guess I can just try that. Or maybe get a cheapo dress and alter the skirt part.

>>7755370
On my phone sorry
Same shop as the cosplay school bag iirc >>7755017

>>7753693
I've bought from Boguta before and it was pretty much lower end bodyline/ebay tier, fabrics are thin and crease easily and the construction is adequate for the purpose but nothing special. You get what you see, but remember that what you see has been smoothed out and dolled up for photos

>>7755370

gold and red are in stock but black isn't

>>7755370
>>7755402
I also want to add that I have this bag, and it's heavier than you'd expect. Also that the metal accents are all gold (I don't know if anyone else thought this, but I assumed they were silver when I saw the purse)

looking for some creamy mami jackets like the one posted in last thread
or the original store
looking it up was really hard with this image error
could not find it at all

>>7755459
how many times are you going to post tho
all that samefagging

i posted twice? once in this thread
sorry

>>7755460
probably until they get an answer, dipshit.

>>7755476
If no-one found it by now, you probably can't get it. Either way, there's no need to 'second' so many times on a slow thread, dispshit.

>>7755476
If no-one found it a listing by now, it's probably no longer available. Not that difficult to realise.

Either way, there's no need to 'second' so many times on a slow thread, dipshit.

Anybody know anything about pic related? It's from Alice Garden and it looks pretty cute, but I'm confused about the price. It says it's ¥150 on taobao but on lolibrary it says it's ¥350.

http://lolibrary.org/apparel/alice-garden-alice-nanami-star-chiffon-op

Sorry if the answer is obvious, I'm very new to taobao.

>>7755498
preorder first payment, pay the rest later when they actually have the dresses

>>7755498
150 is the pre-order price
350 is the total

Oh, that makes sense. Thanks!

Has anyone gotten this blouse from Chess Story? I'm curious about the quality.

I want that bag as a Sound Horizon fan but at the same time I'd never use it because it's too nice for my wardrobe.

I guess I'll stick to admiring it from afar.

>>7755480
I was thinking about going to the beach this summer, but I've got all the sand I need right here.

What sort of shade of white is "milky?" Does it lean toward warmer or cooler off-white?

Also, what does "奶白" mean? Translate called it "naibai" and searching that in Google shows a bunch of veggies and soups.

>>7755562
Milk white

Does anyone have this blouse? I just ordered it, was wondering about how it looks IRL.

>>7755562
It's like a slightly creamy white. A little bit yellow.

I keep getting "Item not found" error when trying to add new items to the cart at Bhiner. For no other apparent reason than it just being a dick, since it's completely random.

Fuck you why won't you take my money bitch

>>7755557
Pfft, haha trying hard much?

>>7755569
Sweet, thanks.

>>7755564
I know it looks like I was being an asshole when I posted this, but I was actually answering what "nai bai" means. It's literally milk white

So I posted my order in the last thread but got super busy and I just saw that people wanted some reviews/links.

First, link to the cloud bag:
>http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=27543664712

Second, review and link to to the brown boots.
Link:
>http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=13604080719
Overall I'd give it 5/5 stars.
It cost $33. I'm a US shoe size 6/235mm and I got it in the 37. It's a little roomy but not terribly so. It'll leave good room for thicker socks in the fall. There's a small zip on the ankle to make putting them on easier.The material is more velour-y than suede-y (which is what I expected). I'm glad because suede gets ruined so easily. The material is thick and the boots are pretty warm. The laces are chocolate brown ribbon and are sealed at the ends. I'd still be a bit wary on durability, but they look really nice. Comfort is decent. They came with these little soft, fluffy insoles which I haven't used. As someone who often walks around in 3+ inch heels I'd say these are average. They'll hurt probably after 3 or 4 hours but they're not exceptionally excruciating. The fit is nice and the laces are long enough to make it fit your leg nicely.
TL;DR: $33 (plus shipping) well spent IMO. Would def recommend.

Tried to take nice pics but my camera is ass.

>>7755557
how have I not seen that before

>>7755638

Thanks for the review anon! They seem lovely. Gonna buy it for sure.

>>7755315
I'm not entirely sure. I don't usually pay attention to weight like I know I should. If it helps at all my order was 4 moon bags and 3 CP petties and weighed only 2.96kg

Sorry I'm not much help...

Do any seagulls know some taobao stores that sell cute ankle socks?

>buys largest size on Seifuku

urgh why why why and it was pretty good quality too.
I'll post pics if you want.

>>7756223

Mu-fish is my go-to since they have a big variety of socks. They have a bunch of ankle socks both simple and more colorful for super cheap.

I adore this shop and it's also full of various socks.

Hope I helped a bit, happy sock-hunting anon.

Put in my first ever taobao order today! I used Taobaotrends. I'm a little nervous! Is EMS usually expensive?

>>7756240
Oh wow, these are so cute! Thanks anon!

can anyone help me find the shop that's releasing these

>>7753756
>7740018

This shop has all sorts of characters including Rilakkuma
http://jianyutu.taobao.com

>>7756234
please post pics, anon. I need a new seifuku.

>>7756240
May I ask what the general quality of these socks are like? I tend to prefer socks that are thicker like sock it to me as opposed to target's $1 shit socks, so I thought it'd be worth asking.

>>7756394
those are cute as fuck. kinda want one for the fall even though i don't have the dress to match. which, speaking of, anyone know of any lolita shops selling berets or is it too early?

also, there was an anon a short while back who did a review about the ciciwork horn flower headband. just wanted to know how exactly was it. i kinda remember being underwhelmed by the quality of the horns.

Is it safe to assume that the stores listed in the spreadsheets are generally reputable/decent quality?

>>7756080
No that's very helpful, that means each bag is around 400-500g. Thanks !

>>7756616
Not that anon, but I remember the horns weren't great and the roses were all flattened. iirc they were velvet rose, which are a pain to get back to a nice shape. Wasn't there another anon who wanted to make a similar headband for cheaper too ?

>>7756616
sems like the review was more positive than I remembered. There it is :
>"Got an order of some stuff from Ciciwork.taobao.com last weekend and wanted to post reviews in case anyone else is looking at their stuff. First up: the demon horns floral headband!

>This is shipped with the horns semi-attached, although they include a small thing of glue and some extra flower bits so you can fix the horns in place once you get it. I found the glue was pretty crap so I'm going to re-do it using my own.

>Flowers are velvet, quality is a bit meh (more like stretch velvet than rayon or cotton velvet, if that makes sense). Horns are a lightweight foam-ish material, there are a few defects that make me a bit annoyed. Overall not bad for the price,if you're super-picky or hate doing anything crafty yourself, you may want to steer clear, since they do need a bit of fiddling to make them look nice."

>>7756650
Not necessarily. Many shops are thrown in because they look promising/attractive. Always check reviews before buying, otherwide you're taking a known risk

>>7756678
Yeah, I dug through the archives and there was one who was planning on making their own and selling them but I haven't seen anything about it after that.

>>7756687
Still turns me off but I'm curious if cici makes her own horns or buys them.

>>7753627
Does anyone know any shops that sell gothic (non-lolita)? I need some more goth stuff in my life.

It says they've tried different browsers and it didn't help.

Anyone else going for this? I told myself I wouldn't spend any money for a while, but I have been wanting a gingham dress for ages.

Also, has anyone dealt with moving while you were in the middle of a taobao order? I am moving abroad at the end of the month and am worried it might mess up shipping or my payment. I contacted Susan at TBS about it this morning but am still waiting for a response. Would ordering directly be easier?

Looking for some shop suggestions for JPunk/Visual Kei Fashion! Pic related, I really like Sex Pot Revenge's stuff, so anything similar would be nice. I checked the store spreadsheet but it only had two or three, but I'm wondering if people have any more they'd recommend/have seen? either that or the search term for Jpunk/Visual Kei would be very much appreciated.

>>7756973
As long as you are at your long term address before you ship your order, it should be fine.

Is there a way to sort search results by feedback ratings of sellers?

>>7757181
Click Credit / 信用 just above the search results.

Can anyone suggest a medium poof short petticoat for salopettes that arent by classical puppets?

Whie I love my cp pettis, last time it took 2 and a half months for it to arrive at my ss and I need it here in like just over a month and a half.

>>7757810
That long ? Mine took 5 days including the weekend...

>>7757824
Yeah, the first time I ordered from them it took just under a month and asking on here I got the response that a lot of people had a long wait time.

Didn't really want to take the risk. If I can't find anything else though I guess I'll just have to hope and pray it comes in time.

>>7757810
>>7757824
>>7757827
Some SS are gray(black?)-listed by CP, I swear to god.
Some orders take months and months and some take less than a week.

>>7757020
most of the "punk" places are either really weeby/hot topic wannabes or just knockoffs of japanese brands. a few places I found, which are probably more of the latter:
http://shop103316692.taobao.com/
http://k--a--k--u.taobao.com/
http://glpclub.taobao.com/

>>7756759
can't really point you anywhere specific, but something random I discovered today - searching 暗黑系 (translates as "diablo series" but it's really more like "dark kei") pulls up somewhat less mainstream black/dark clothing. there the inevitable tumblrcore gawth shit and harajuku stuff, but you might find something through there.

>>7757844
Well both orders with Bhiner and pruany took long.

I'm using taobaoring this time so maybe they're fine.

People who do cp orders should say what ss they use to see if we can find a correlation in the time.

>>7757824
what SS did you use?

>>7757810
when I ordered form CP directly, it took three days to arrive

>>7754848
>>7756771
they should turn up on the first page of results if you search hair curlers - 卷发器

Hihi!

I couldn't find the answer in the FAQ, but why is it that whenever I try to add items to my cart, the website jumps to the top of the page and doesn't add my item? None of these items appear to be out of stock. So, what am I missing here?

Is there any good resource for buying male clothing through Taobao?

>>7758473
Did you get a refund from that fiasco at all and have you heard anything?

>>7755017
Can you review the quality when you recieve it? The shop has a lot of replicas and I really want pic related, but not sure if I should get it if it's gunna fall apart after a few uses

>>7758694
Not the anon you're replying to, but I have the same bag in the same color, I've used mine dozens of times and it's held up amazingly. It has yet to show any signs of wear or damage, I think you'll be pleasantly surprised by the materials and construction, anon.

>>7758701
Thank you for the information! Could I also know if it's big enough to hold a standard size folder or notebook? I'd probably get it either way, but wondering if I could be kawaii for college.

>>7758706
It would probably fit a smaller composition notebook, but it's not long enough to hold a standard spiral notebook or a one-inch three-ring binder. It would probably fit an iPad comfortably, too.

>>7758635
No refund, but there was an anon itt who heard from them apparently (I'm on mobile and looking it up is a pain, so no quote, but they allegedly said they had technical difficulties and would reopen or something).
I also got in contact with Alipay, they said they are investigating the matter. I don't have chargeback in my country, and I don't want to be blacklisted by Alipay over 70$ anyway, so I didn't get my money back, I'm just hoping they can do something or scare Transbao into reopening their website so I can make an order to empty my wallet.

So Mrs. Zeng left TBS?
I emailed her about an order I'd like to place, as she's always been my agent for like 6 orders, but she said she's starting her own service and offered to do mine (fairly small) for free. Is it legit? Should I go for it?

>>7758867
Sounds a little bit dodgy so I'd be wary. If you do follow through with it, I'd recommend not to pay by gift, use insurance, tracking, and common sense, I guess.

>>7758889
I wrote kind of dumb sentence. Obviously I mean to do the things after 'not pay by gift'.

Can anyone recommend a good shopping service?
Mine has a shitty exchange rate so I'm looking for an other on right now.
Preferably one that can also shit via yanwen

>>7758918
damn.... I meant ship ofc not shit... orz

found a lolita shoe shop on chinese egl comm sales (taobao board). anybody wants to give it a go? http://xin-fashion.taobao.com/

>>7758625
are you logged in?

>>7758889
>>7758891
It's okay, I understood what you meant. If I wasn't somewhat strapped for excess cash and wasn't trying to reserve something, I'd probably try her out (being as safe as possible, of course). For now, I'll just email TBS.
Does anyone know when she left? My last order was shipped around April, and she was my agent then.

>>7758918
How about buyng from them directly and use their mail forwarding service?

>>7758933
isn't this kinda common?
>join company
>learn and gain experience
>build rapport with customers
>leave and
>set up shop in same business as previous company
>be own boss good life

>>7758955
It is, and I'm not saying there's anything inherently sketchy in her doing so, but I don't think I want to be the guinea pig right now.
I would feel more comfortable if she could provide something to back up her new business venture, but I don't even know what sort of questions I would need to ask her to confirm that sort of thing.

What's the longest time it took for EMS to reach you guys?
I've never had EMS take longer than one and a half weeks but I need something to arrive latest on the 29th.
Can't decide whether I should just pay an extra $10 for DHL, it's a light package anyways.

I'm currently looking at this bag, but I can't tell what the description is saying. Could someone help me please?
Is it something about installment paying?

>>7758949
wow I didn't even know such a thing exists...
where can I find more info on that?

>>7759000
It's only available to like Australia right now.

>>7758982
to create this replica, we need 2 original samples to use as a mould. this requires 1400RMB. we need to use a shopping service 1000RMB. so girls, if we don't have 100 pre-order participants, we will cancel this project. deposits are non refundable, deposit will be 40RMB. We'll follow everything the original is like (not sure about this)*
so this project will go through smoothly, don't worry! remainder full price is 110 per bag

if more than 200 customers: 100rmb per bag

we stop taking deposits on 15 June. If we have 60 customers by then, it will be 130per bag.
if we have 100 customers, 110 per bag

if we dont have 60 customers the project is scrapped

>>7758962
>>7758955
>>7758889
So after doing a bit of digging, the email she mailed me from is the same one that Rococo-soul's tumblr has been recommending people contact as an SS for their items. I think everything will be fine, and if not, I'll let you guys know.

Sage for so many useless posts.

>>7759026
Wow, thank you for that whole translation!
I didn't think I'd get a reply so soon.

I guess it sounds like it's too late to get the bag. :\

>>7759053
link to the shop?

>>7756394
seconding this, i searched high and low with all kinds of weird search terms but i cant find a thing.

>>7757854
I tried to buy one using TaobaoSpree and they wouldn't even reply to their messages.

>>7757854
I've used Celestial Delinquent and it took a bit of time for production but reached her in about two weeks, I think.
I've also bought one through TBS with no problems. The petticoat arrived around the same time as the rest of my items; it was HMHM that held up my order for 55 days. Their blouses ended up not being worth it at all.

Clobba is always a safe bet for CP petticoats, too.

>>7756881
Same problem here but then again even people on Weibo are complaining about issues with Taobao.

Has anyone ordered from White Moon before? I ordered a dress from them about a month ago and it still hasn't arrived. Is that normal for them?
>>7755130
I ordered Sayaka Miki's sword off taobao a while back, Taobaoring and TaobaoTrends told me the same thing. Pruany was willing to, though. Got it with few problems, aside from the confusion of using Pruany's weird site layout. The sword was about 1.5 meters, for reference.

Are there any stores that sell underskirts with lace, similar to this one?

Does anyone know where one could find plus size blouses ? Most cute ones cannot accommodate a 100 cm bust...

>>7759348

Get a binder. My 103~ bust goes down to ~95.

>>7759353
really ? any recommendations ? Doesn't it completely flatten the breasts ? Sage for off topic.

Any good shops to find lolita shoes? I'm looking also for matte gold shoes, I was wondering if there were any reputable shops that sell shoes like this for lolita, as far as I know I've only seen them from Lenore Lolita.

>>7759321

Does anyone know where I could find cute bat-themed jewelry? When I search for 'bat rings' all I get are really ugly gold rings that are about four sizes too small for my man hands. I'm gonna keep looking, but any help would be much appreciated.

I just asked the seller. There weren't enough people to get the replica going.

>>7760119
Oh, that's cute.

>>7760119
对 means pair, so you'd be getting two.
Would ask SS just to clarify.

I've cleared my cache and history, at best it lasts for one page. ughhh

Aynone have any experience with this shop?

How likely would it be to have knock off designer clothes make it here?

there might be more on the weeby goods tab on the spreadsheet as well. look for 2ch stuff

>>7760382
as previous anons have said - most of the time it'll make it through just fine. it's one thing if you're buying, say, obvious fake LV purses or chanels or louboutins, but if it's just a design that isn't emblazoned with logos, it'll probably be okay.

I'm getting ready for fall and winter shopping and I want one of those hand muffs. Google translate gave me 耳罩 but that only gives me earmuffs. Is there a better translation?

>>7760418
Thank you anon! I will now buy 600 of them

the general term is 手捂, which will get you all sorts, including the plush kawaii kind for your room. 手捂皮草 specifically for fur ones.

>>7760462
Yay, non earmuff muffs. Thank you kind anon!

What kind of quality are the print replica shops on taobao, and which are the best?

Remember this?
I thought she made this thing herself!

>>7760550
Wasn't it that she skrimped up the money to buy an Alexander McQueen skirt?

>>7760555
No it was a cheap knockoff of the real deal.

>>7759309
i've ordered from white moon i remember it took like 4-5 weeks

>>7760564
nah I know that, I mean wasn't her story that she bought the real deal? I don't remember anything about her saying she made it.

>>7760575
Really? Wow, my mistake.

Is there anywhere I can buy cute panties? I can't justify spending $15 on matching pairs for my bras.

For those of you having trouble with pictures not showing up on taobao, try clicking any button on the page, then hit backspace to go back to the page you want to be on.

That's been the only thing to actually help, even if it is a pain in the ass.

>>7760824
Oh god, thanks so much for that tip!

just putting it out there, that having rococo soul redirect customers doesn't equate to things being fine. it just means zeng had the business sense to collaborate with rococo soul.

ignore the two idiots. have you tried this seller called yunni? i think she's actually based in japan. but you should look at what she offers anyway.

>>7761005
Is that a taobao seller? I can't find anything on her.

>>7760965
I just don't think Rococo Soul would continue to redirect customers if they were being scammed. It looks like Zeng and another woman (named Candy or Yeng Fei?) are running the new SS. A few people have commented with mini reviews/thank yous, but I haven't found any big/comprehensive reviews yet, so I'll be sure to write one up come mid september.
Anyhow, here's my shitty little order. I mostly wanted the dress, but I've been eyeing the necklace for a while to pair with a few pieces that I own.

omg it worked!!! but you just got to wait until the page stops 'loading' before changing pages otherwise the images don't trigger idk

I am going to make my first Taobao order from Taobaonow. I am pretty confused in something though.

There was an item that was not in stock from my order, but everything else is ready. The Paypal button is ready too, but the total price appears with the item that is not available.

Is there a way to remove an item from the order so I can pay without the price of that item?

Thanks in advance! Also sorry for being ignorant.

>>7754281

I asked them to put it there since I wanted to buy it and now it is avaiable in a easyer way

oh cool, I didn't notice there was a new one. Thanks!

Are the Classical Puppets troubles petticoat-specific or is CP in general a bit of a hassle to deal with? I'm eyeing one of their OPs but if CP is going to complicate my order I might be better off getting it from a reseller.

Also has anyone spotted any cute lolita-appropriate boleros lately? None of my usual lolita haunts have anything I like. Cardigans are easier to find but I'm looking for something more flattering on natural-to-high waisted dresses.

>>7761400
They are CP general, they have the same issues at their gothic store Broken Doll.

I'm looking for plaid skirts and dresses done with nova plaid (like what Burberry uses). I'm totally down for Burberry replicas, I just want to find something with that print which isn't $300

>>7761423

It actually works

I'm trying out the Taobao forwarding service and I'm trying to figure out if the last line of the logistics report says that it's arrived at the warehouse.
That last line, Google Translate says
> 2014-08-17 10:15:11 Xuhui District, Shanghai South Railway Station has to sign to sign people: fun shopping Zhang Jie
Does that mean it's arrived at warehouse or something?
I'll give a report on the whole process once my test order is complete.

>>7761802
Where are you from, anon? I thought the forwarding service was still only for Australia and maybe one or two other countries, and an Aussie anon posted about doing it before.

I can't help you, though; my apologies.

Don't worry, I figured it out! :)
I don't know if that last line exactly says that it has arrived, but I did get a private message saying that it has arrived.
I got the hang of this now. :D
The guide I was using to make this order wasn't as comprehensive as I'd like but that's understandable. I'm going to make a full guide once I'm done with the order. ^^

Yes, your service has received it and signed for it. It just means its in their warehouse, it won't get sent to you until you follow the process of getting your shit sent.

Does anyone have a Taobao shop saved that sells genuine OPI? The OPI in my country retails for $25-$30 a bottle.

>>7762382
You won't be able to ship nail polish.

A taobao shop list this 生成 as a colour. Google translate gives me "generation colour"...?
What?

>>7762395
It's like cream/beige color.

>>7762382
Nail polish is flammable. Won't be able to ship it unless the seller ship it via a dedicated courier.

>>7762402
What, really? I'm curious as how translates. Insight?

I've been trying to find something at least similar to these on taobao with no luck;
I've tried lots of different search terms, but haven't found anything yet

>>7762404
man, i never really wondered why myself. it just kinda is that way.

>>7762404
the first character means "to produce" or "to create," but it also has nuances of being born, being raw (uncooked), etc. the second one means "to grow" or "to become."

my personal guess is that it has something to do with the color of raw soybeans, which are the lifeblood of east asian countries.

I'm going to need all of our friends in china to start replicating this wonderful clutch. I'll sacrifice my brand to the taobao gods.

>>7762505
>>7762763
The first character means to be born or to create, and the second means to grow. It means "generation" in the sense of creation/formation, and I'm pretty sure it's used to refer to the colour of unbleached/uncolored fabrics.
There was a thread on baidu about it here: http://tieba.baidu.com/p/350756369

>>7759016
No its to other countries AFAIK, saw a girl in lolita sales uk mentioning she was gonna don one. Unfortunately Ireland isn't an option when you register an account, so can't join.

Isn't that the stuff gfdstore sells? I like the idea of it but execution is terrible.

Anyone know where I can find this bag (or the white colorway)?? I've tried searching ghost bag or variations of the sort but can't quite find it.

>>7764101
I found an old link via reverse image search, but it was dead. something will probably pop up by the end of the month as october approaches. and I remember anons mentioning way back when it first appeared on taobao that it was pretty easy to find offhand on japanese auctions or something, but that's like a year ago now, so.

>>7764091
I clicked around the spreadsheet at random, and almost everything I clicked had some kind of sale going on (a few had VIP-only sales, which will affect some SSs, though). you can also try searching 促销女装, which will pull up a separate sales area of taobao, then just click clearance. I saw a 700 yuan dress on sale for like 70 yuan. shit was cray.

Taobao is designed to be sold to chinese people, getting to them in a few days, not sold to us and gotten in a month or two. In china it's still summer and people are doing their end-of-summer summer shopping still.

Is there an agent that can send a sword 120cms long? Taobaoring said they couldn't.

>>7765014

What materials is the sword made out of? If it's metal of any sort, it won't get through. I can only assume by the fact that RBR won't ship it, that it violates the postage rules regarding shipment of weapons. If it does violate that rule any responsible SS won't ship it. If you do find one, you run the risk of it been confiscated anyway.

>>7765035
It's made out of PVC, so the problem is the length I'm guessing.

is yoybuy down for anyone else?
does this happen often???

pruany will let you ship using international small parcel or something. I've never used it but I've thought about it. pretty cheap and only for parcels under a certain (very low) weight

I was really set on buying these shoes when I got paid, but they sold out and honestly I can't find anything else similar just silver shoes . Does anyone know what i could use to find a holographic design? Also is anyone buying new stuff for school??

FIXING THE IMAGE PROBLEM:

Load the page (ie.page 1), go to another page (ie. page 2), then click the back button (so you return to page 1). All the images will load. WOO!

Go with pruany, unless it's a custom item. Originally had an order of a cp petti and a pair of bloomers. Ended up having to cancel the petti as CP wouldn't respond to Pruany but my bloomers had arrived so they just sent them.

But in all honesty you would be better off getting a few items / doing a GO with a few friends.
