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!

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.

Hey there,

First of, thumbs up for fashion truth owner. :) awesome blog you have here, awesome reviews and of course the main thing price comparison.
Never did realize the huge gap there.

Secondly, I've read some of the stories. wouldn't go ahead disagreeing or agreeing with other readers.
However, I would say I have started online shopping ever since the starting of the year.
And my very first purchase was from CLOTHESBUCKET, very good impression.
Pictures are really good for me, as its clear and shows up to the very detailed of the piece.
So far i've bought quite a few items from them, reasonable price, wouldnt mind say superb quality if compared with other blog shops.
The owner herself, she's really friendly. I remember buying the preppy pleats from her, and only wore it a few weeks later, but when i wore it, the buttons came off,
and she even offered to exchange for me, but i felt bad so decided not too and just sew them back myself. :) :)
Thank You Clothesbucket for the clothes you bring in..! keep up the good work. :)

Have shopped from CANDY TREATS too. service wouldnt say way to the extend good.
the top i bought from her, was a white tube top, threads werent sew well, material was THIN not as shown in picture.
But me being it was my decision I blame myself didn't bother telling her about it or asking for an exchange.

Recently bought a dress & clincher from KISS & TELL, everything was awesome. :)
the owner was friendly, her price is really affordable. : ) the dress quality wasn't the cheapskate quality.
I would say it felt exactly like the same dress I saw in Forever 21.
and her HEELS are OMFG super pretty. *drools*
too bad they arent my type & my height.
Keep up the good work, babe!! :D

Others that I have purchased from:
Sassy Chic, Oh My Clothes, Little Miss Dollies, XOXO chic, A Model Xcess & A model Studio and cant remember.

Thirdly,

I think this would be my first time experiencing a BAD experience with online shopping.
Before I start off, I hope the owner of the related blog would not get offended.
Sorry.
I mean I have been online shopping for almost 10 months, have always been a fussy customer,
asking sellers questions over questions but have never faced this sorta treatment.
The blog itself, does NOT have any CONTACT METHOD!! not even an email!!!!
Alright they are new, but hey isnt email like the MAIN thing the MUST have??
Yes its partly my fault as I did ask if there were COD service, and the owner have said sorry that they do not have COD service yet.
But me being the KIASU me would really love to do COD so that i could take a look at the item first and save that few $$ of postage,
since I myself am a student ++ on budget.
So i asked again "I know you dont do COD, what about like i meet u at whereever u work/study/stay?"
Does this sound rude?
As the owner replied back "there again and again!"
As from what i've experience, even thou some owners says NO COD, but if its to their convenience they would still do it.
Was it wrong for me to ask again? I was even offering to MEET the owner at whereever is to her convenience not mind.
:S

To the owner, I think you know who you are.
I'm sorry. But I would really suggest you should update on ur T&C as its pretty brief.

Cheers people!!
Happy Shopping.

p/s: if it wasnt for that owner, I think I wouldnt even have written in.
