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!

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.)

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.

Stories from Readers 43

i recently started shopping online and i have to say, reading this blog really got me 2 realize how bad my 1st purchase was.
it was from picklewrinkle [http://www.picklewrinkle.blogspot.com/]
and, being the newbie i was, i was totally mistreated.
all thanks to fashion truth, i now know my rights to buying online.

well, let me say my 1st purchase was the combination of all "bad services".

i noticed a vest offered by the blog and immediately sent in and sms stating my interested as well as inquiries if it was adjustable. she replied in less than 3 hours and mentioned that it was. so we were in the midst of discussing bank-in/poslaju details when she mentioned it's be better it it were COD. i personally didn't mind as she said that anywhere is fine with her.

as it was the weekend, we set COD on a weekday of the following week and confirmed the time and location, she did mention that she would text me if there were to be any changes.
the day before COD i texted her to confirm the time for the next day and she asked if i would be fine with that night itself instead. after rescheduling COD, i asked to reconfirm the price and she requested for an additional RM5. i was pretty curious on why but i figured it was COD surcharge [which after reading this blog, i realized that COD charges don't apply].

so after meeting her and collecting the item, i briefly checked my purchase and figured that it was alright. it was my fault too that i didn't notice until i got home, that the vest was sewn inside out on the other side. i am really disappointed and felt cheated in a sense that she failed to mention it on her blog and that she didn't even mention it during COD. also, it is stated on the blog that she doesn't charge even for delivery. =.="

reading the blog again, it's the last shop anyone would purchase anything from.
-pictures are poorly taken.
-unsuitable model.
-garments not properly ironed before display.
-lousy service.
-cheats a newbie. [totally personal]
