Hey there! I'm Angie, an avid online shopper with years of experience shopping for myself, my friends and customers from all over the world. Most people use my service to purchase items related to Lolita fashion, Ladies fashion, Ball-jointed dolls, Doujinshi, Cosplay and Anime, but I can help you buy just about anything from China (Taobao), Japan and Taiwan!
Due to high workload, I will stop accepting new orders until 3 October so that I can concentrate on processing the existing ones.
I will however continue to accept and process orders for: Businesses/Sellers Customers who already have open orders with me (you may continue to add on items). Those whom I've responded to but have yet to confirm your order. Apologies for any inconvenience caused! If you submit your order throughout this period, I will most likely not respond, but i will try to get back to you from 3 October and check if you still wish to go ahead with it before processing it. To avoid confusion however, you're strongly advised to send in your new order from 3 October in case I forget to get back to you about it. Thanks!

I'm mostly referring to cosplay costumes and lolita dresses here.
Due to the upcoming China National Day holidays which may cause some unpredictable delays as explained in this post, and the fact that cosplay and lolita clothing do take a considerable amount of time to be made (the holidays will no doubt extend the waiting lists), I cannot guarantee that you will receive your items by your desired deadline. As I'm currently still coping with a huge workload, I do not have the time and energy to chase the sellers to make sure they do finish your order in time. Sorry! For those who've already placed your orders with me which I've acknowledged, I will go ahead and process it as usual. That said, I will still accept orders containing made-to-order items, as long as it is not a must for you to meet a nearing deadline. I'm experiencing a high volume of orders at the moment, so expect me to take about 3 to 5 days to respond to new orders. As always, shipping out of completed orders and new orders with attached order forms will be prioritised. Apologies for any inconvenience caused!
I would also like to remind you about the upcoming China National Day holidays which will cause orders to be delayed. Please read about it here if you have not done so, thanks! I've published 2 new guides on my website. A size guide, and a guide about meeting deadlines for made-to-order items (cosplay and lolita stuff). Hope you'll find them useful!
They were... gone with the waves. I only had time to grab 2 OPs in the same design and size.
There was a bit of drama with the JSK... apparently the customer service person accidentally listed it before 9.45 pm, which was the release time that was stated, so some people managed to get theirs early if they weren't busy battling for the OP. More pieces were relisted to make up for the shortfall at 9.45 pm, but they were still wiped out. I only made it as far as the shopping cart. *sigh* Don't despair though, Krad Lanrete announced on their weibo that they will re-release this series next Spring without all the crazy limitations so if you didn't manage to get it this time, you can just wait until next year. ETA: Am a derp and bought an extra Navy Blue Long OP in S size by mistake. Any takers? It's priced according to my shopping service fees rate. Downpayment is 75 SGD. http://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=20075482160 ETA2: Nevermind, it's taken. I have just been told that there's a limit to the number of pieces each person can buy (three) and I've already maxed out mine. Sorry!
Although I have different accounts to purchase from, they all lead back to the same destination address so there's no way they're not going to notice this (I'm pretty much a regular at their shop) Much as I'd love to help, I can't. Hope you're able to find someone else to help you. I've finally decided to make the shift to weebly because it's more stable. I've very quickly copied it over manually this weekend, so excuse the irrelevant layout ^^; If any of the links or pages are not acting right, please don't hesitate to let me know! Otherwise, I think the new navigation looks a bit more organised now, so hope you guys like it! My past Taobao item recommendation posts are not copied over because it will take too much time, but you can view them on my Tumblr.
New upcoming break: From late September to early October, most of China will be in a holiday mood. Based on past year's experience, many businesses, couriers, factory workers etc may wind up as early as mid-late September as they need time to travel home due to serious congestion on the various public transport systems. Officially, the holidays last perhaps about one week from 1 October, but some people take the opportunity to extend their holiday. Many business owners on Taobao do go back to work quickly, but while they can accept orders, they may not be able to despatch orders quickly because of the couriers and factories being closed for business. Even when all these people come back to work, they will be dealing with a huge backlog, so do expect continued delays for perhaps up to mid-October. Shipping-wise, Registered air large packet may also become temporarily unavailable or have more restrictions posed on them to ease the post office's load. More specific details will be available later. I can continue to process your orders, but please understand that from mid-September to mid-October, you will possibly experience delays in receiving your purchases. If you have orders that you require by October, please place them as soon as possible. Please understand that Made-to-order items (cosplay costumes, props, lolita clothes etc) may only be ready only after the holidays. The warehouse I work with will also go on holiday, during which it may not be possible to place orders at all (due to lack of personnel to receive and inventory tems). I will announce the exact dates nearer to the holidays. |
