FROM FT :
so sorry but we should have made certain points clear right at the beginning. some of u readers may be clear of these stuff because u all have been reading the site from the very beginning. but for the "newbies", they probably don't know about it.

so here it is:

Price Comparisons.
well it may not be an appropriate 'name' to some. so, shall we change the title? we were thinking of changing it to "alternatives". just that.

and also, some readers may not know why prices differ so much. is it because the sellers just want to make a higher profit? or are there reasons behind it?
here goes : [have been widely discussed in the earlier stages of this blog]

prices may differ because :
1. some sellers wanna earn more, some sellers settle for less profits. some sellers just want to price their items lower than the popular blogs just to attract more customers.
2. sellers do get cheated by the suppliers. different suppliers charge differently.
3. some sellers hire models to model their clothings
4. some sellers do have an 'offline boutique'. offline boutiques are usually more expensive than online boutiques
5. occasionally, some sellers import their items from overseas, but they didn't know that their items can be bought locally at a much lower price.
6. some sellers MAY HAVE included COD charges & postage charges into their stated price.

[do email us at fashion.truth@gmail.com if we miss out any! ]


anyway,
for now...
the SITE IS UNDER 'CONSTRUCTION'. do bear with us for the time being. lol. not major construction, just wanna draft out a proper "header/intro" so new readers dont get the wrong idea.

sellers/buyers/readers, do email us and give us your feedback on what else we should add on this blog / this header-or-intro / anything to clarify. thank u very much

*wont be updating for the next 3 days. meanwhile, we urge readers to write in to us ya!

thanks!

blogroll

e-shops that wants to be added into the blogroll, please send us an email at fashion.truth@gmail.com
would appreciate if u all could link us up too

price comparisons
1. only items which have a price difference of RM7/8 and above will be posted up.
2. the price used for this price comparison is the price stated on the e-shop's webpage. (i understand that sometimes prices for items may vary depending on customers. some e-shops just put a high price as to allow further bargaining by the customers.)

mailing list
we appreciate it if eshop owners remove us from their mailing list. we are not a fashion review site thus there's no need for us to receive mails from u all telling us that u've updated. just add us up and we'll link u up at the blogroll. with that, readers will know when u update.

thank u

Stories from Readers 8

from a reader......

---------------------------
Hi Fashion Truth,
I stumbled upon your site while I was browsing thru some blogsites for some new shopping items : ) plus I have just finished my exam heheheee....Here I have a couple of comments to make which is purely base on my own personal opinion k...so pls pls anyone who read this, don't get mad yah///
I have had good and bad experiences shopping online so to say....And my no.1 very dissatified feeling about some sites is their dishonesty towards some of us. There are times where i had confirmed reservation with the owner on the items I want, but after a few days, they would come back and informed me the items had been given to somebody else. Where is the integrity right? I mean a promise is a promise ya...just b cos someone paid u immediately doesn't mean u can go behind my back ya. I feel that is a complete distrust with your customer.

And secondly, sometimes when an appointment it set, the seller can actually forgot about the appointment and got me waiting there for about 1 hour. I was so so so upset till I have completely blacklisted that site from my memory....no more no more am i going to buy from her.
Therefore, I would prefer to buy from sites that I have good experience and their service is good, like immediate reply & honest to me if the items are reserved, they will give me a duration before selling it off. I actually don't mind paying slightly more if the overall online purhcase feeling is good, at the end of the day, most importantly I am happy with the quality & items that I bought. Also, when some price comparison is made, you can actually tell some of the blogsites which doesn't post their clothes nicely or their site is boring are usually the cheaper ones.


Because there is no effort to make sure the items are seen and put up nicely so the feeling of purchase is there. That is why some sites like 45Cworkshop, Autumncloset, Sashavintage have many customers, because everything is displayed nicely and it makes me wanna buy all of it! And they are all so so polite and nice to deal with. At the end of the day, it's all about packaging....I can give many examples but there is no wrong or right. we as customers got to do more homework and do some comparison carefully before buying the items yah...
Thank you Fashion Truth for having this forum for us to speak out loud!
