cosplayer who lied about working on my commission. Made excuses when I would ask for a progress picture (“im not home right now” or “lol its actually dyeing as we speak so i cant”). The cosplay didn’t require any dyeing and she had the correct color fabrics. She sent me a piece of shit bunny suit without any boning or any structure just poorly sewn fabric. She bought some dollar store ears that she said she spent “so much time working on!!!1” and sent them to me. It was so fucking ugly and i instantly threw it away.
i thought maybe she had a bad week so i asked to commission a wig. Never saw that shit either and I said, “Fuck it give me a refund.” And she said, “Wait no lol heres a picture” and its some cheap ugly ass amazon wig that she was trying to style for a week. Even though i paid her to order an arda wig then to style it (paying for her time, the commission, and the product itself). So she just pocketed the money and bought some nasty ass $12 wig.

>>10465561

If someone did a poor job I can understand them not trusting them to fix it.

The "I can do it myself now" comments are odd. I would say if the wig stylist bought the wig or any new supplies for the project beyond what they always buy or used a lot of supplies, they should charge for material cost and refund all the rest to not piss off the customer.

Most commission artists of any type usually have non refundable deposits or half payments plus progress pics, etc. pay scales to prevent significant financial losses from unhappy customers.

Agreed, at first glance I didn't even see much wrong. I can see being frustrated at having to fix styling for something you payed to be styled, but it's not like it's destroyed, it just looks slightly messy (desu one day of con wear has done worse to so many wigs.)

I haven't looked at her account but if it's like she says and all her other reviews are good, then it just seems like a minor issue. Still honestly not seeing what's majorly wrong with the wig, it'd take me like maybe 15 mins to bring it back to how it looks on the right, and if it were taken to a normal con it'd probably have to have those same kinds of readjustments on occassion anyway?

>>10465785
Some buyers have this idea in their head that they will pull out an indestructible perfectly styled wind resistant wig straight out of the box and will never have to touch it to fix it again. That's simple not logical. Yes, the wig is in a rough state when it arrived. It's likely that the seller also didn't properly secure it for transportation. However, that merits a partial refund or free fix. The work has been done on the wig, the supplies used and spent. That money shouldn't be given back.

>> No.10465885

>>10465881
i disagree. as the seller if an item i sell arrives broken (if easily repaired) i wouldn't be trying to make up for supply costs because it would be shitty.

>> No.10465903

>>10465885
I would agree with you if that were a fair equivalent to this specific case, but it isn't. The wig was not broken upon arrival. It's not like the lace fell apart. It's a styling which is subject to coming undone. Even Arda puts out a restyling guide because their styles come undone in the packaging. It's really not that uncommon as you're making it out to be.

Ordered a pair of cosplays from EZCosplay: Serena and Jasmine from the Pokemon franchise. Yeah, I know EZ's reputation, but they're the only ones I could get for Jasmine without resorting to no-name overpriced individuals. I expected mediocre and got... well, 25% mediocre.
They'd never done this cosplay and used pic related for reference, but took it literally. The dress and bow are fine, but they mistook the shadows on the sleeves as actual grey-toned fabric. Jasmine's also supposed to be wearing it casually, and it's supposed to be able to close across the chest, but the cosplay is too tight and doesn't even come close to closing. I'd like to return it and have it remade, but hearing horror stories of EZ's customer service makes me feel like it might not even be worth it.
At least Serena turned out well.

I commissioned a seller on Etsy to make me an Allister jumper and they straight up just didn’t listen to the measurements I gave them because they thought I typed them in wrong. I told them 69cm waist and 98cm hips AND on top of that told them to make the hips of the shorts wider to get that wide leg look and when it showed up the hips of the suit were 89cms. There was no stretch whatsoever and I had no way to make it work and they only refunded me 40 bucks of this 400$ commission. They also didn’t ship me the glove because they fucked it up and didn’t want to make another one

Apparently there are other bad reviews. She's just flip flopping between saying they don't exist and that one is real, then claiming that the second bad review is from her ex roommate she had a falling out with and that it's vendetta. You got some bad reviews. Suck it up and act like an adult. People would have forgotten quickly if she didn't blow it up.

What's so amazing to me is that this woman is so damn unprofessional. She sent all of her friends to harass the commissioner over a bad review and put the girl's full, legal name out instead of acting like an adult and letting the callout die or handling her business in private. No wonder people with bad reviews wanted to stay anonymous. I certainly would not send an item back to someone who acts like this for "fixing." If a customer is going to be the victim of a witch hunt for a bad review, I'm not paying her $175 + shipping and materials for the "privilege" of that risk.

The bad reviews didn't kill her commission business. She did it herself.

Unironically I have had a lot more luck with taobao tailored commissioners, even if I have a shopping service translating/communicating through me than anything else. Technically it's premade characters though, just tailored, but with communication I think many are open to negotiation.

Her ex roomate is lavendula cosplay. i remember a post and several murmurs around the cosplay community about how she is up to speed on any cosplay drama and likes to spread it. She also ate her roomates food stuffs all the time but only paid for it when she got caught.

Oh that explains the antisemitism.

Have you ever lived with anyone before, anon? It's shitty. My roommate used to steal my snacks all the time. I don't live with them anymore. Simple as that. No witch hunts. No public bullshit. If you want to air your dirty personal laundry instead of keeping it putting on your big boy pants and handling that shit in private, it's not a good look for you either and is arguably worse.

Good to know Lunatique has a history of doing just that, though: making shit public to start drama and whining about anything she needs to handle like the grown woman she is. The wig commission, now this. The wig wasn't even that bad but it looks like her attitude is. At least she seems to be consistent, but maybe she should just grow the hell up.

Lunatique is fucking nuts. Some of us said the wig isn't that bad, but even more of us said that it is or that her attitude and unprofessionalism make it a horror story in itself. Imagine straight up lying about what's in a public thread and bragging about getting posted.

She put out her client's full name on her Instagram and, both there and on Facebook, tried getting her friends to harass her client and escalate the issue even more.

As entertaining as the drama is, wouldn't want it to be me. Commissioning her seems like a nightmare. Her wigs aren't that bad, but she needs to ship them more carefully and definitely needs to get an attitude adjustment if she wants to deal with customers, especially for higher price products.

A full refund is somewhat unreasonable, as some time was put in the wig. But, the buyer also asked for a partial refund if not full, which is not entirely unreasonable. I am a firm believer that commissioning is a service and if the customer is not happy with your service, you basically either make amends and try to fix it (like Lunatique did) and/or give the customer their money back (what Lunatique didn't do) so that way, both parties are happy. Most importantly, as a commissioner, make a fucking contract so it covers both parties.

Either way, Im glad this thread exists as I am now aware of the people I will be blacklisting and make people aware about their services.

>> No.10466807

who cares if time was put into the wig, normal businesses do not get to recoup losses for time or materials. if this was a fucking cake instead of a wig, she would have had to give the full refund, even if the buyer ate it or fixed it herself. your mindset is why we have so many shit commissioners who pull crap like this. their time is not more valuable than anyone else with an established business.

As it stands the time she spent may not have even been equal to what she charged. I commissioned a wig from her once, which was a total mistake, and I have proof through dms that she only spent two hours making it. She charged me $120 for work time. That’s $60 an hour.

The wig of course ended up being a hot mess and she wanted me to tie up the high ponytail myself because she didn’t know my head size yet that was the most difficult part of the wig. I was in denial over how bad it was for a while and just like shoved it in a corner since I couldn’t do cons with the pandemic anyway. Now I’m just annoyed. Live and learn.

I think a partial refund on the labor cost would have been fine yeah. I understand why the client wouldn't want to send it back to be fixed. It would take longer, cost shipping, she'd still need to deal with Lunatique, etc. A partial refund sounds like a good compromise.

As it is the ponytail was falling out at the bottom when I received it, she didn’t even try styling it. She already knows I’ve been speaking out and who I am so here’s a picture of how it was received (at least she used a wig head but she charged me $8 for it)

Labor costs was $120. Materials were $69.50 with shipping and tax but she got upset when I sent it goods and services and made me send her the PayPal fee.
I messaged her multiple times to check in after that was paid in November but at one point she told me she was too busy working on her wedding dress and she deserved the two weeks before katsu to work on mine and another client’s wig. I don’t know about you but if I was taking commissions those would come first before personal projects. As it stands she made the wig in one day after I bugged her about it again. After reviewing my messages again it looks like she did the bulk of the work (according to the picture sent) in two hours and then went to get dinner while the bangs heat set and then I got the final photos three hours later. She didn’t tell me I’d have to adjust the ponytail until after I got it and in her photos it’s in a much more proper location.

Grow up and stop harassing the wig commissioner. I've seen this all over my news feed from you in different groups. Please shut up already.

Implying OP is even the client rofl, you do realize that people follow drama if it's posted everywhere right? Lunatique did more than her fair share in blowing up the drama too. Anyone can look at their Instagram highlights.

From what I am seeing, Lunatique is only talking about the price of the labor, not factoring in shipping, supplies, maybe Paypal fees. Ladypetraral is probably factoring those in. Use more than one brain cell and stop taking shit at face value.

Nah it was two hours. She sent me a sketch and then showed the wig done and said she was letting it heat set while she ate dinner. The time between those messages was two hours.

Honestly, the pony tail being tied with a hair band seems like it is left to your interpretation on what to use for it. But it honestly looks like the styling products didnt hold up during shipping.

GOD haven't heard that name in forever... I commissioned a total of 3 costumes from her back in 2014/2015; two in 2014, and while her replies were a little slow sometimes, I did get two pretty good quality costumes (a couple loose threads here and there, but considering the stuff I sew myself is a fucking disaster, I can't reaaaaally bitch much).
Theeeeen then 2015 one... Replies were decently fast while we talked about the costume- until I sent her payment. Then it took her 5 days and me asking 3 times to even send me a list of measurements she needed. Replies were still slow following that, and then when the costume arrived... oh boy. The gloves looked like they were made for kids; they did NOT fit me at ALL (even though one of the first costumes I got from her had gloves that fit perfectly??? I am still SO confused on this one), and the rest of the costume (it was basically a jacket with coattails that didn't open in the front, had to be slipped on like a shirt; thanks dumb chara designs) was SUPER SUPER TIGHT; I could hardly breathe in it, and couldn't even lift my arms. And I always go up an inch when I give measurements... I ended up NEVER wearing it because it just did not fit me properly and was SO uncomfortable. I guess that's what I deserve for getting a costume of a Sonic character LOL...

They agreed to remake the overcoat, only took three emails and three extra weeks.
Bright side! It's all white! And slightly better fitting.
Bad news! They stitched foam padding into the shoulders to give it an 80s power suit silhouette. Like WTF?!
It's not so bad I can justify forcing them to redo it, and I can wear it around cons without most noticing, but I'm going to know and I'm going to be self-conscious of it.
