Petticoat store link: shop60113340.taobao.com
I got petticoats that appeared to have more average poof based on the customer photos. The white one is very short and made of incredibly hard tulle. It's perfect for layering but will probably be pretty itchy against bare skin. It's hard to tell from the way they're hung, but the black one is A-line and the pink one is cupcake-shaped. Both have enough poof for a normal coordinate, and the pink one fits perfectly under my short AP skirts.

Angelic Imprint: shop58746168.taobao.com
These shoes, as cute as they are, aren't very forgiving. The clawfoot heels barely have any room for my toes, and all but the pink ones are slightly narrow. Order a size up (unless you're a size 44 like me. Then god have mercy on you). Other than that, they're very well-built.

It's actually not that bad. It's a little on the heavy side, but to be expected from the crystal. It fits decently in my palm, but that isn't much to go off of when I have small hands. It definitely would serve as a good prop for the millennium crystal.

Follow up with the military uniform.

This thing is the biggest pain in my side out of all the cosplays I've gotten in this order. It's heavy because of the chains so putting it on is slightly a pain, especially because they get in the way. The chains do come off so that you can put it on. The jacket has three buttons that you can use to close it on one side and two snaps that are hidden on the other to keep it closed.

Everything fit pretty well with the measurements I gave them. The only thing I didn't like about this was that all the button holes on the dress shirt I was given was too small for the buttons so I couldn't button it up. It was the same for the coat, but that was only for one button hole. I figure it wouldn't be too hard to fix though. Might have to take in the pants as well since it's too wide for my taste.

The hat doesn't fit but I didn't expect it to. Never had an experience that a cosplay hat fit.

Using Buynosaur for the first time and a little confused. I emailed them but wanted to ask here in case anyone who'd ordered with them before knew anything
I just paid my first payment to purchase the items, but when I added up all the numbers to tell my group members how much they each owed... it seemed like the numbers were really really wrong.

This happened to a friend and I with our GO, too. The issue is (most likely) that the spreadsheet code they use doesn't include all the columns the prices are in, so some items don't get automatically added up.
Message buynosaur about it and they'll fix the price/spreadsheet coding.

Yeah, they fixed the spreadsheet and then we paid the correct amount.

You can check the spreadsheet to see if this is what's happened with your order fwiw.
Click on the subtotal box and then look at the top left where the code is (the orange text in the image) and see what rows it includes. If it includes all your items then you're good, if not then they just forgot to include some items in the total.

ie: we got 36 things so our items were in rows 2 - 37, thus the code gets the subtotal by adding k2 through k37 together.

You could fix this yourself if you wanted to but it's probably best to leave it alone and let them fix it since you've already contacted them about it.

Hope that makes sense!

We got it shipped out weeks ago in early April but it didn't leave Hong Kong until the 17th. We figured it would take a while but I'm used to SAL so I figured 2-3 weeks to get to the USA and then another week-week and a half to get to us since we're East Coast.

I'm not worried/surprised that it's taking so long, I just can't stop checking the shipping status every morning waiting for it to hit American customs.

I want to try surface parcel too because I'm a cheap bitch
I almost cannot beleve how cheap is, glad Buynosaur offers that type of shipping.
If you don't mind, approximately, how much weighted your order and how much was the shipping? (sorry I'm still amazed at the shipping cost estimation I cannot believe it)

It's my first time using it since I got an under 1kg order when I first switched to them but yeah, I'm super amazed at how cheap it is.

>Weight: 5.3kg / 11.7lbs
>Cost: $356 HKD / $45.87 USD

Has anyone ever seen lace like pic related for sale? I think I might have seen it in white and/or black, but I'd love to buy some in other colours!

Problems that I'm having with Buynosaur:
1. They're taking FOREVER to reply to my emails. Like, 5 days in between responses.

2. They weighed my package (finally) and it's 5.4kg?? I don't understand why. It's one cosplay, and some accessories (pictured). Does this look like it should weigh 5.4kg? It's gonna cost almost as much as it cost to purchase to ship, and since they're taking forever to respond to my emails, it's delaying the shipping process. I'm kind of annoyed.

If you bought a full costume and I'm not sure what the second photo is, a wig? A wig that long alone is probably close to 1lb.

>what the second photo is, a wig?

Yeah, a wig.

I dunno, this whole order just doesn't look like almost 12lbs to me. I didn't mention it to Buynosaur, I just told them to let me pay for my shipping, but that was five days ago. Still haven't heard anything or gotten a quote for my shipping, lol. Basically if I do speedpost it'll cost like 71$ to ship, and it'll ship faster than it takes for them to reply to my emails.

Maybe the coat and costume is heavier than you think? I have a LL costume with its accessories as it put a lot of the weight to the order.
I did speedpost. 2 days is when it got to me over the weekend. It's good but you should tell them to try to tape the entire box because the weight opened the box a little

God I hope so, I need a laugh.

Are you waiting for a mail? Go check your orders on the Buynosaur website. I made the mistake of waiting for them to send me confirmation but it was already payable on the website.

Nope, they haven't set it up yet.

Speaking of how they haven't set up my payment for shipping yet, they haven't even taken pictures or shown me my items yet, and I know my items have been in their warehouse for at least a week and half.
