Frankly, I think it is not fair to judge their prices (as I've seen in FT) as I notice some blogshops are the one who updates the similar items first. Hey, they are bringing in the latest batch of clothes. Yeah it could be that a month later, other blogshops bring in that same item, but hey...believe me if I were the competitor, I will definately price it cheaper than the origin, wouldnt you?
And then, another blogshop saw them and will price it EVEN CHEAPER.
Then...we blame the blogshops who bring in the latest clothes for us first on how high the prices of their items are..
I'm not trying to be bias here... I am a shopper myself, and of course, I am always in a hunt for cheap nice clothes! :)
I have bought many items, some of which I have bought and seen many weeks later at a much cheaper price. Initially, I do get angry..
But then... why should I?
I was happy with that item, and the price charged! I was WILLING to pay it. Noone forced me to...
If one is willing to settle for the item, then I think that you shouldn't whineeee all about it later... It makes u a sourgrape!!
I do agree with the price comparison thingi here... but why do some buyers have to be so harsh and use ugly words?
U see the price comparison, and u are understood.. Dont have to talk so much :)
Empty cans makes the most noice u know :)
Also, I agree with listing the banned customer's name.
What i mean is by inserting the customer's name and email..
Address, contact no should be kept personal... :)
U think it is rude to display customer's name? But isnt it rude to display the blogshop name as well?
Alright, u may say 'ban it at ur own website!!'...
But I've seen websites who has done that... and what happens in the end?
They get flamed in their chatterbox...saying that they are not respectful, not professional...
If u dont think you are at wrong, why would u be afraid :)
Then again, ban customers who are has really crossed the line... Dont just banned for small reasons..
Do customers put their name and contacts after condemning other blogshops? :)
At least, this site would be beneficial to blogshops as well as FT will be able to aware them with potential 'problematic' buyers :)
Hope this doesnt offend anyone!!
Thank you for reading my LONG post :)
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!
