Can I get sizing review for AScos/AScosing?
Slightly in between sizes, so just wondering if it's be better to get a better fitted S or to get an M and alter myself. If they run large though then I can just get a S.
Re-edited the image because I realized I skipped some items. But yeah. Waiting on this one.

I have one and got a medium because of my waist. I think generally it fits the measurements that it says on the chart, but that's just one opinion.
A lot of accessories for two dresses I've been meaning to wear, and some clothes. Hoping to also add some cute socks if I can!

Has anyone bought from https://rabbit-candy.world.taobao.com before?
I bought a couple of shirts and a bag, and even though the listings didn't mention anything, Bhiner keeps saying that the items are out of stock, so it's taking weeks to get to them.
None of the feedback I saw or read mentioned shipping being slow.

>>8808715
But aren't most of the items sold out? Or do they take commissions?
>>8807829
I got mine today!
I ordered the blouse, bow, and jsk.
No pics because I forgot to take them before I left my parents house, all my lolita is there.
The white dress ended up being a lot more of a tan/cream color in person, the white is in some of the details, but it's not a white dress at all, which is fine because some 'white' shoes I ordered also ended up being cream...the fabric is really nice though! My blouse is incredibly soft, chiffon I think. The dress feels thicker than I thought it would be, and the print is really crisp. The lace on mine was really soft too. The bottom lace on mine was part of an underskirt built in, which was also really nice. I'm 5'4 and it comes to a little bit under my kneecaps, I think it would look nice with a longer underskirt, like it was popular a while back? I'm not a fan of really long dresses, but it's really nice so I might end up keeping it. The ribbon for the corseting on the front came in a little present bag, it looked kind of cheap, but it's not a major detail so I'm not too worried.
Sidenote, I got some veils from ciciworks, they're really nice, and a witch hat from their new store, I got the hat in small...it's really, really small banded. My head is 11in and even I can't wear this hat without altering the band. So beware I guess?
>>8808866
Yes please!
Do shops usually restock their sold out stuff? I'd hate to think that I won't ever be able to complete the set I ordered.
any recommendations for reputable shops that sell nice bags suitable for classic lolita?
I know this stuff can get pricey sometimes but god damn, this made me laugh

What's the fastest you've guys ever placed and gotten an order, and with what shopping service? I've gotten one in 10 days total with the forwarding service, but I'm trying to rush order something from 2.taobao
I'm looking for a boxy/shapeless blazer for nanchatte. The ones I found through the nanchatte google sheet have mixed reviewes. For $40, apparently the two I was looking at both wrinkle easily. For the cheaper blazers, the phrase "you get what you pay for" comes up a lot for the $20 ones.
I don't mind blowing decent money on this, I just want options before forking over $250 to conomi.
>>8809107
There are too many variables, namely the speed that the seller ships out, and then the size of order and time of year for international shipping, that affect the total time an order takes to arrive.
I've gotten non-jfashion dresses in 8 days with bhiner using DHL, but they can take a while to ship out packages,and it was only because the dress got to them in 2 days. Secondhand sellers usually take longer to ship stuff out (a week plus), and use slower domestic methods so you might be screwed over by them if you're trying to rush order something.
Basically pick any SS that takes 2.taobao orders that supports Fedex/DHL/UPS and that's your best bet.

I have an Alipay account because I AliExpress but I've just signed up for a Taobao and it automatically set me up with an Alipay using my phone number. How do I correct my Taobao account so it'll use my existing Alipay account?
>>8813281
This person again. I ended up giving up because damn, paying someone to order for me is worth it compared to the annoyance Alipay and setting up that Taobao was.
>>8813395
just FYI, I'm pretty sure they're two separate accounts. I remember I got so frustrated after 11/11 trying to log into alipay to see whether I'd been double-charged for anything, and whenever I tried to log in without going through taobao's login first, it'd always give me an error.
Has anyone any experiences with BhinerExpress?
>>8807194
I'm trying to make an account.
I already have an aliexpress account and taobao claims the mail is used, tho I can't log-in using my ali data? I tried another mail and it ask me for my mobile number? Is it safe to give them my mobile number? Are there going to be any more surprises up ahead? (I live in EU)
Can taobaoring or pruany charge in cny instead of usd?
Just ordered from buynosaur, they're giving 10% discounts to orders before chinese new year!
>>8814037
I used that shipping method once. They used some sort of SF shipping method that took forever to get to me. I'm East Coast so things from China usually go through NYC to get to me but this took forever going through SF and I remember it was terrible to track because it kept bouncing between locations in California for nearly a week before it finally left on its way to me. I had only used BhinerExpress because they'd had a discount for it at the time and I definitely would not use it again unless it was the cheapest option. If you live on the West Coast though, it seems like it would work better for you since you don't have to wait for NYC customs.
I'm actually considering going back to Yoybuy now. I miss having those discount coupons.
>>8814180
I can't even make an account on Buynosaur's website. Their account page is just a blank page. Am I missing something?

Someone buy these and cherish them. They won't fit my feet so I don't want to waste the money.

What was the problem in the first place? Did yoybuy just not like the fees?
>>8814722
It was well over a year so I'm not entirely sure what happened but Paypal shut down their account, I think. Then that's when things with Yoybuy started getting shady with double-charging amounts on cards and people getting blacklisted.
>mfw I still have 400 points and $1.50 credit on mine
Trying Buynosaur first since anon said they had a promo but I'm definitely going to hit up Yoybuy next time they have a promo as well since they had always been good to me.
>>8814737
Yah I remember, I was considering to try their forwarding service when it happened but I just didn't understand what the issue exactly was between them.
>>8814748
Not even sure they fully explained what the issue was since when it happened it was only supposed to be temporary and be fixed in a few weeks. I'm going to try to get an order in before anything happens, hopefully after CNY.

Read the FAQ.
Anyone know what terms I would use to search up cute bathroom and bedroom items, specifically strawberry or Rilakkuma-themed?
I was on taobao and saw a coat by infanta that is being sold for $16.39 it seems too good to be true so I'm not sure weather to buy it or not. They are also selling a atp dress that I also want for the same price. the seller has 4.9 percent good feed back . thank you so much for your help and again I'm really sorry for the dumb question.
>>8815641

Anyone that has used Buynosaur, how long did it take them to email you after you sent in that form for a quote? I filled out the form yesterday and it only had five items (all from the same shop) so I was expecting to have an email this morning but didn't find one.
>>8815822
And Buynosaur just sent me my email. That's.. odd timing. They said all my items were available and even helped me select the best shipping but I've had to email them back just to figure out how to pay them since I can't find anything on their website past the form you fill out for quotations.

I'm >>8815822 >>8815874 and they've been really nice so far. They're waiting for the shop I ordered from to confirm one last item before they post my order to my Buynosaur account dashboard so I can pay and they're nice enough to let me change my selected shipping to a different one since I told them I wasn't sure which would be the better choice so they talked me through it and suggested one for speed + good price.
I'll keep everyone updated when I've paid them for my order.
>>8816614
Oh god I'm dying over here. I sent Buynosaur a reply over them updating me over my order status saying "Thank you! Your customer service has been wonderful!" because seriously, they've been wonderful over answering emails and dealing with my questions.
This is the reply I got. If they're another scammy Taobao agent then I ain't even gonna be mad.
>>8816057
I mean.. I'm not sure how fast it takes to make replicas, but that one dress I know is super new and wonder how the heck they made replicas so fast. Seems like a scam at worst, replica at best.
What do you gulls think of this dress? I'm wary because they look almost cheap when laid on the floor, but it looks like chiffon. Anyone ever buy from this store?

Buynosaur anon again. I got sent an email just now saying my order was ready to be paid. I went to their website and checked my account and it listed my items, the amount, and how much each were in HKD along with domestic shipping and paypal fee. Ended up being $90HKD ($11.55USD) but when I clicked to pay through paypal, it said I owed $77HKD which was just the price of my items with no shipping or fees. I tried to log in to my paypal anyway and each time it said my log in info was incorrect.
I opened a secondary tab and used the same info to log into Paypal directly so I knew it wasn't a mistake on my part. I ended up hitting the 'cancel and return to Buynosaur' option and then sending them an email explaining why I had cancelled because of the incorrect amount and the paypal log in error. I even told them I'd be more than happy to accept a money request from them sent directly to my paypal and I'd pay through that if it would help.
Not sure what they'll suggest but up until now I've used Chrome to navigate their site because Firefox won't show most of their site.
>>8817018
Updating from mobile since I've shut comp down for night. Buynosaur told me their server was doing upgrades and they stopped it long enough for me to pay. Didn't have any trouble after that getting order paid for even though it still just charged me for $77hkd item cost.
Still A+ so far for customer service cause by now I'd be fed up with myself over a shitty $12 order.

This might be more suited to the dumb questions thread, but does anyone know how I might figure out the name/search term for a more minor videogame character (princess hilda)? She isn't big enough to have her own wikipedia page, baka-updates seems to deal exclusively with anime/manga, and google translate doesnt do shit with proper names. I've even tried searching the chinese name for Link Between Worlds to see if anything related to her comes up but to no avail.
>>8817639
All I can suggest is try searching with her Japanese name? If that doesn't work then I have no idea what to suggest since it sounds like you've tried everything.

What is up with pruany? I ordered something last thursday, now its sold out and they still havent bought it yet. Ive always used them as an SS and theyve never been this slow. I dont think im ever going to be using them again.
TaobaoSpree uses a cart system now, is this a new change? I'm rather confused as to how it works. I got an email telling me to just "buy items that the price is about your own order" using spreelove.tictail. Can anyone recommend another middleman? I would use the spreadsheet but it seems outdated.

Anon, so far they've been amazing. We've swapped about a dozen emails so far over small issues (mostly me not knowing how to pay them, then errors with payment) but each time they've been super helpful and offered a solution. I'm currently waiting on my single shop order to arrive but after that it shouldn't be more than a week before I get my stuff and I can do a proper review then.
I'm an anon for the previous thread and this order finally arrived today.
Unfortunately the bag was a no show. It seemed to be taking a ridiculous long time to arrive at my SS (longER than the custom Madoka uniform) and then I finally got a message saying it wasn't in stock. Overall though i'm pretty happy with everything!
If anyone would like pictures and reviews just let me know!

This anon again. Got another update from Buynosaur and they've gone from memes to cheesy jokes. Now I keep picturing the staff of this service as hipster nerds or something. I can't stop laughing, this is just something I've never experienced in my 5+ years of Taobao ordering.
Thank you original anon who suggested them!
fuck. placed super small order through taobaotrends about a month and a half ago. theyre just getting around to telling me now that most items are out of stock. at this point theres just one item left. I understand my agent deserves their fee for checking (albeit VERY late) but is there a way i can just get a refund for my fucking items, because seriously..
She hella made it sound like she had it done as well, and charged me for shipping and everything.
stay away from jessica on taobaotrends.
>>8819542
oh shit im an idiot, thought the top left (beret?) was a bag too, somehow sleepily assumed that's what the anon was referring to as not having arrived. well then.
>>8820143
Uh.. if you paid for items that are out of stock, they should refund you for it. Why did you even wait a month and a half for a response?
>>8820143
that's ridiculous anon.. go give buynosaur a try as they're not charging agent fees this month. placed my order yesterday and waiting for them to ship today!

I need a $150~ order to arrive in two and a half weeks. Should I risk using buynosaur?
Taobao/Alipay just double charged me for my shipping, although the second charge is 13 cents more.
(I paid, originally, $82.92 for shipping, and I just got another charge from them for $83.05? It was supposedly charged on the same day, but I'm 100% positive it wasn't there)
What do? This is directly via taobao, I didn't use any shopping service. I know I should contact their customer service, but I'm not entirely sure where to contact them that would be helpful for a non-Chinese speaker.
>>8820696
To update, Alipay only has one charge listed in my transaction history. I don't know whether I should take this up with taobao or my bank?
Hoping some Taobao/chinese-speaking anons might help me out...
I'm looking for long(er) pleated skirts than the normal school uniform ones. I want to get into nanchatte, but I'm really tall (6'1"), so the skirts don't even hide my butt. I'm not talking about the super duper long ones that go nearly to your feet, more like to qt japanese grill's knees or a bit under.
I've tried so many combinations using the dictionary, and now I don't really know what to do.
>>8820707
I would call your bank just to be sure, but when a similar thing happened to me during 11/11 and I called my bank, they said it was on the merchant. generally if a charge only appears once on alipay, that's how it'll be (eventually) reflected in your bank account. are both payments still pending? I'd give it a little while to see if it doesn't clear itself up after a while. during 11/11 it took over a week for all the double payments to resolve themselves, but on alipay everything was for sure only listed once.

It's okay anon I'll let you off.
Pink Blouse >
http://world.taobao.com/item/44080499898.htm?fromSite=main
For how cheap it was I think the blouse is okay. It fits really nice (I can pretty much get it on and off without unbuttoning it). I'm quite petite but I have chunky upper arms so I was worried about the sleeve fit of all the blouses I bought as I've had bad experiences before where my arms have been choked. The sleeves on this aren't too bad. They're really nice and stretchy and don't make my arms look gross. However I find the hime sleeve attachment super odd. I would have expected it to have some kind of button attachments like the others I have, but nope. It's literally just an elasticated sleeve you slip up your arm. It seems okay for now but I'll be interested to see how well they hold up when I wear this out. The chiffon bow in the middle is super wonky but luckily its detachable. I'll have a go at fixing this myself and if I fail I'll just remove it. I'm also not that fond of these ribbon bows on the sleeve. The other long sleeved blouse I bought has these and I just think they look a little cheap. I'll probably remove these and add my own. Overall not bad for a cheap blouse but there are a few downsides to it.
>>8819463
Puffball Clips >
http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=524246025714
I really love these but I have the feeling they might be real fur. They seem way too soft for synthetic but there wasn't any mention in the listing. My best bet is that this is rabbit fur. I think the puffball hair bands I bought too might be fur as well. If you do buy these make sure you buy two! I was a bit hasty when ordering and didn't read any descriptions to see that the listing is just for one. Luckily I bought two of these just in case, but with the hair bands I only bought one as I assumed they came in a pair and unfortunately they don't.
>>8819467
The wig turned out super nice and I'm really happy I grabbed it! The colours are a little warmer in RL as I'd describe it more as a golden blonde where in the photo it looked a tiny bit more ashy. It doesn't come with a fringe so at the moment mine looks really sorry for itself so I plan to get one cut in pronto. The curls are also a lot tighter than what is pictured on the listing so I might try and relax these. I'd definitely go for it though anon it's a nice natural colour and is super soft!

Got my order! Here is the Hanayo dress you wanted reviewed
I love it! The material is just how I wanted it and the lights show up nicely under it!
The lights are sewn into the underskirt and there is a pocket for your battery in it.
I ordered a size, and my SS said the shop recommended a size S for my measurements, but I didn't change. Which was good because it fits very snug and I would not fit in a smaller.
It is VERY short, just below my buttons, so I'll be wearing Biker shorts underneath.
>>8821669
That's actually super cute. Does it sit nicely? Link to the store?

Sure thing!
>https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=523883901263
This beret is so pretty, I had gotten it to match the skirt that I got in beige and it matches perfectly. The ears are plush and soft and the ribbons are sewed on well. It comes with two extra bows that are on alligator clips, which is nice. In the stock photo they're clipped on the front. I have a pretty small head and it fits really well, but I feel like it's big enough for people with bigger heads as well. However I'd like to note that the ears are a little more beige than the cap itself. (Which isn't really a problem for me, but it might for some.)
sorry for terrible cell phone quality picture, I don't have my camera on me.
>>8823101
Review of the bobon21 heart skirt? I was considering it but wasn't sure about the fit. Thanks!
>>8823176
Sure! for reference my waist is 68cm and I got the medium because the measurement was right on the dot.
The sizing is pretty spot on, it fits my waist perfectly and it's not too tight at all. My only complain is that the zipper feels kind of cheap so I've been really gentle with it. It comes with a slip on the inside and of course an extra button for the back pockets. Also beware of the length, I'm pretty short (5') and the skirt is short on me. the length is around 35.9cm and it sits on the natural waist.
Other than that it's super soft and the buttons are so pretty on the back! I just hope they don't fall off like some of my other Bobon21 stuff.
>>8822518
I'm >>8815874 and definitely not working for Buynosaur. Though now you've made me suspicious of everyone else. Good job.

Review of the shoes and Vanilla Daki?
I'm the anon from last thread who got a shitton of fukubukuros.
Got a lot of normal clothes out of the clothing ones, which I wanted and I like them! Most of them are crazy soft.
But, however, the accessory ones is where it shined. I got, originally, 1 straw hat and 3 berets, and I ended up with 2 hats and 7 berets.
The whole total, from that one shop, was about $36, and I got 2 hats, 6 berets ( the other one were from other shops), 3 brooches and a pair of qt mittens
here's the shop:

>>8823210
Nice haul anon!
>Dat strawberry hat
I should've waited one more day for my order.
>>8823202
The shoes are super cute, and they go with my closet really well. They have the furry detailing and a heart with wings you can see in pic related. I'm a 6.5 US and I got the size 39 and they fit really well. They are slightly heeled like a wedge instead of a platform sneaker. They go great with the bobon21 heart skirt too. They're aren't the most comfortable but getting inserts will help.
The Vanilla daki is probably one of my favorite things out of the order. I got it int he 2WT fabric and 160x50cm size. I have to say that the daki is pretty perfect. It's soft and the art is really nice and printed well. There is one really teeny tiny dark spot on one side, but I can't really notice it at all unless I really look.
>>8823210

It's so cute, I love all the berets! I'm actually super happy about the leaf beret, as I want Little Squirrel at some point, and that beret is pretty great for it.
(Also love that I have a chocolate hat for any time I ever get a chocolate print.)
>>8823236
Well, the fukubukuros (aside from the accessory ones) I got from had size options! I'm generally a M-L, due to bust size, so I think it'd be alright for you!
>>8823448
I got a couple sizes up because I like my shoes to be kind of roomy in the toes, which it is. I would say get one size up if you don't want as much room as I do.

This anon, yet again. Last one until my items arrive, promise!
This is what I paid for my order of 12 rubber keychains.
Domestic shipping is higher than I expected but Buynosaur sent me an email to explain before I saw the fee.
>As for your payment, we were told that from now on, all domestic shippings from China has to include an insurance fee and that is why we had to pay extra for the domestic shipping charge :-(. But, as a compensation, we made sure that you pay lesser on your international shipping fee!
I guess it's because they're in Hong Kong? Still, my shipping for 7-14 days was $9.35 for under 1kg and my order total was $194HKD or $24.84USD and $9.86USD of that was paying for the items themselves without domestic shipping.
>>8822537
yeah, I remember checking my alipay/bank transaction history obsessively to make sure I hadn't missed anything, but eventually it all cleared up on its own. it took an obscenely long time since it was 11/11, so hopefully it doesn't take nearly as long for you.
Thoughts about this? It looks quite lovely, but I'm hesitant about ordering, because it's from a new store and the placement of the flowers look a little wonky on the white one.
>>8824053
>$73 for international shipping
Just for keychains? Did you pay for express shipping or...?
>>8824496
Gentle reminder that's in HKD, so about 9.35 USD like anon said.
>>8824578
Now that you're back, small question about Buynosaur since you seem to be asking them a lot of questions: do they underdeclare if you ask them to, or would they decline? I understand if you haven't bothered asking this specific question.
>>8824626
Since I live in 'Murica and my order was super cheap anyway, I didn't think to ask but I think you could at least ask them. They respond to emails pretty quickly (depending on timezone) and it doesn't hurt to ask.
Anyone know any good taobao stores that sell good binders? I really want one to wear with like j-fash because I feel like my big boobs ruin everything I wear, but I'm too cheap to buy one for like $40...

>>8825557
Me!! I was about to ask the same question seeing as theyre taking 5 fucking ever.
Don't worry tho.. I waited 3 months over the stated time for a reservation dress once.. Could be they got fuckloads more orders than they originally planned for? Hoping so anyways..
Wish it would hurry up though, I have an order waiting which I want this to be included in before shipping it out!
Can somebody give me advice?
I'm trying to decide whether it's better to shop Taobao or Aliexpress. I'm looking to spend 150~ dollars after shipping for a blouse, a jacket, a Japanese style school bag, a couple pairs of socks, a sundress, and a pair of flats. The total is about 130$ on Aliexpress, would the Taobao price be similar?

I would use image search to find the items on taobao, but make sure it's not world.taobao. Save the photos of the items you want, click the camera icon on the search bar and upload it. You can filter through them and find a good price, and I'd compare the prices alone for now. If you have a huge difference with taobao it'll be your better bet.

>>8827815
HAHAHAH probably yes anon, really depends on how big your order is and how fast taobao is to ship it to your SS.
If you have a small amount of items coming from the same store and they ship quick, maybe you can get your SS to ship out before Chinese new year.
Once its Chinese New Years fucking everything stops in China for like 2 weeks, including postage. So even if your item gets sent out from your SS feb 7th, it isn't going to leave the country from Chinese New Years being on the 8th
