Today my unimates and i were discussing about this issue.. I had no comment about Rainbowmallows about the services but the price is certainly a lil too costly compared to other blogs.. Some people might defend the blog owners as they might be their fren's blog or relative or watever.. But Hey! think about the buyer's side, for those who defended the blogshoppers! u guys willing to pay a same peice, same quality of top selling in 2 different blogs at different prices? If a buyer willing to buy at higher price juz go ahead.. u might be crazy..

If a buyer willing to buy at higher price juz go ahead.. u might be crazy..
Im here not to criticize Rainbowmallows only but so do other blogs.. Some blogs are even getting a profit of RM30-RM50 for shoes, dresses or others... Would you as a buyer would like to purchase at the price which is double or triple of the cost price?
I practically saw /heard more things about The Closette. A fren of mine reserved 2 items from her before. They had arranged 3 times COD but was not successful.. and ya u heard me right.. FOR 3 TIMES..my fren waited for her at SS15 once and she didnt come.. my fren called her soo many times but she didnt pick up the call and my fren waited for her more than half and hour.. then later on she felt bad and willing to go to her house to pass her the 2 tops.. then she didnt turn up again.. she was waiting the whole day and she didnt turn up.. called her cannot get also.. after the third time, she recoommended by from to take postage.. my fren was so angry with the service she provide and cancelled off the reservation.. My fren says tat she could not take the risk to bank in the money 1st.. Who knows she might forget to post the item after getting the money right?
She wanted to charge my fren for COD-ing fee which she is just only studying in Subang SS15 Taylors if im not wrong. That time is not so called like the holiday time where classes are still on.. After the first time she FFK my fren, she told my fren that she will not charge COD where my fren is already waiting in SS15 to COD with her..
Moreover, her stuffs is really super expensive.. I went to MNG and saw the similar peice of spagetti top there and it cost me around RM25. When i went back i saw The Closette is selling RM25 too for the same top.. but Hey! i bought in MNG for RM25 and The Closette is selling for RM25 too.. The spagetti top that The Closette is selling might not be the real MNG top but im sure i bought it in MNG Sunway Pyramid with the same price.. And im very very sure that the cost of a spagetti top would not cost more than RM10..
I had an aunt that can get stock from direct supplier. I saw the same bag which The Closette for RM45 for the bag.. guess how much is the cost price? it is LESS than RM20.. and ya.. it is LESS than RM20.. she must be earning like RM30 for the same bag? A few customers commented that her stuff is too expensive and what she did was she blacklist all the customer that say bad stuff about her blog.. Moreover, she even took down the chatterbox when too much comment about it. And she wrote a post saying that some customers doubled order the top.. This is soo bullshit...
What do you think?

Hey, thanks for dropping by a comment...:) First of all, regarding ur friend, I texted her before the first meet up but she said she did not recieve it. I even have the delivery report... My phone ran out of battery! I called her later and she said she waited for 10 mins only (UNLIKE UR EXAGERATED 30 mins). I appologize and told her that I will make it up to her. Told her I will send it to her house. We kept arranging meet ups, and she said she will meet me at SS15 again. When i was on the way there, I texted her to confirm the location. Nonetheless, upon reaching Sunway, I had an accident (WHICH I POSTED THE PIX ON MY WEBSITE AS PROOVE). I did not wish for the accident to happen. I later told all my existing and new customers that if they wanted the items, they would have to opt for postage as my car will be in workshop for at least 2 weeks. Yes, i understand that ur friend will not risk the money, but ask all my customers that time.. did they recieve their parcel? Did anyone got cheated? I hope u understand me, as much as I try to understand you.. Thanks.
On the other hand, do not be so certain on things unless u have the confirmation. The cost of the spag is MORE THAN RM10.
As for ur bag, I am very happy you could get it at cost price. Maybe u can get it below RM20, but I certainly got it way above RM20. The bag I am selling for RM45, is selling for RM60 at Pyramid. Why dont u make a big hoo haa there too.
Thing is, if u found something cheaper, I am more than happy for u. I am not stopping you from supporting them. But gees. Give us sellers a break.
I deleted the commentors off and banned them because they kept spamming my box for DAYS. Besides, i also wrote (NO ADVERTISMENT) above the chatterbox, and they advertised other blogs. So is it wrong to delete?
Moreever,how sure are u there were no double orders???
Sorry if i've been rude.
Thanks :)
Dear respected "fashion-truth":
I am sure many many of us do respect u for taking your time and effort creating this blog. warning us, e-shoppers on the great price difference and COD charges. I also salute u for ur courage. you really have done a great job by making aware on the issue that u are emphasising. but i think what u failed to noticed is that those who are addicted to e-shopping are aware of the large amount of e-bloggers. and if they do choose to buy from rainbowmallows. its none of ur business. it is very low and immoral to copy and paste what rainbowmallow posted and re-state ur comments. so rude and shameful of u. i honestly feel u should leave this blog on and allow all e-shoppers to express thier disatisfaction on what u've done. we do understand ur good intention and of helping us to choose from the best price ranges. but i think u have crossed the lines. We as consumers who purchase clothes from established brands are also aware of the profit mark up margins. some brands charge unreasonable expensive prices. But the consumers have no complains. and are happy buying them.
i agree with "the closette" and what briony said is true. you really should review what u have said about rainbowmallows. I wonder if u even know her. why is it that u critic her more than other blogs.
if she chooses to write a long post explaining, allow her! what has it gotta do with you. do u have something against her?
every blog owners have the right to mark up however much they want. and e-shoppers have the right to choose who we wanna purchase from.
but, thank u again for all u have done. u have done a great deal in helping us. not to mention, the amount of time u have on reviewing soooo many blogs that are around. it's sure a tough job. and, we are not against u, just what ur doing! ;)
Hi :)
i dont quite understand where u're heading with this post
for your information, all posts here are written and sent in by readers. nothing is from me. thank u!
I have ordered stuff from The Closette before and they were promptly delivered to me every time. Further, I do not think that the prices are exorbitant. Besides, it is ultimately up to the seller to mark-up the price as he/she wishes and up to the buyer to either take or leave it. No one is making you buy her stuff at gunpoint. You're making too much fuss over nothing.
