Price Comparison 136 and reader 124

omg! i understand the need of profit making but ugh i'm appalled by the variation of prices of the same "basic" kimono by these 4 e-shops!! there are many others as well but i cant seem to remember :(


First up Margarita Maiden! the cheapest of the lot :) sigh RM38!!

http://margaritamaiden.blogspot.com/2008/12/flutter-by-part-2_25.html

den A Blinc : RM42 :)

http://ablinc.blogspot.com/2008/12/favourite-kimono.html

managable!!



Absolutely Irresistible : RM45!!!! gasp*

http://absolutelyirresistible.blogspot.com/2008/12/love-story-of-kimono-palette.html

and coco goddess ohmygoodness a whooping RM55! argghh!!!

http://cocogoddess.blogspot.com/

i mean i'm a pretty reasonable fellow shopper, a difference of 7 or 8 bucks is by my point of view pretty decent as some e-shops have different prices to profit in mind and other factors; but a difference of RM17??! fuh! i have nothing against all the e-shops but the prices are so mean and when i get something more expensive and the cheaper e-shops upload them afterwards i just get pretty sad :( that's why i wrote in to let the other shoppers out there not suffer my pain :(

[from FT : do take note tha White Label Closet now has a boutique at Kota Damansara. in other words, it's quite natural for an offline boutique to charge higher than an online boutique due to other costs]

dear fashion truth, i wish to complain about afittingroomboutique. they sell things very unfairly. i enquired about a dress abt 2 days ago when it was still available. because i have 2 accounts, im a seller as well, so i used my personal account to email them, and my shop acc to msg them in their chatbox. however, after checking 2 email inboxes consecutively, they did not reply. i finally checked back at their page today, and i saw their reply in their chatbox, they only replied me in the chatbox and did not bother to email me, which i find very inconsiderate. they also did not reply my other email.

i leave frantic msgs at their chatbox and then i leave even my contact number with them, informing them i am really interested in that dress ( i have been hunting for that dress since forever la ok =.=) then and then settle down to wait again.

few hours later (wow, they are fast this time -.-) they send me an email telling me they have sold that dress already. that is a lil unfair. i enquired 2 - 3 days ago and they don reply then they finally reply and tell me that its sold out.

i wil never shop from them again =.=

Reader 121

hi fashion truth, i want to complain abt some blogshop owners taking a tremendously long time to reply. for goodness sake, you are running a business, albeit small scale don you think it is some responsibility? i know most of d owners are college students or uni students, but could they at least make time to check their emails at least once a day or in 2 days? my emails can go unreplied for at least 3-4 days, which is very frustrating.

it is even more frustrating when you are browsing and you fall in love with an item and excitedly email the blogshop owner, and check your email countless times a day anticipating a reply from the owner. then, the waiting begins. hours become longer hours, longer hours become days. this sucks you know? then 4 loooong days later you receive a harried email from them explaining some other faster person (oh, the irony) has already snapped up your dress or top or clutch that you wanted so badly and that you are unable to have it, after all the waiting you have done, not to mention the countless longing looks you have given the picture.

this is really frustrating. can you blogshop owners who are so busy until you cannot check your emails at least have the courtesy to leave your hp numbers in the shop, so anxious customers like me can sms in to reserve? at least we can sleep more soundly at night knowing that the dress you were wanting so badly is safely reserved for you.

few of the shops who took ages to reply were minipose, dlookinglass and afittingroomboutique, it is really frustrating.. please have a heart for those crazy shopaholics like me out there.

afittingroomboutique they only replied me in their chatbox, it was 3 days later that i, restless, went back to their shop to have another wistful look at my badly wanted dress, only to realize they had replied me in the chatbox but did not email me even though i left my email there.

those with prompt replies are kissandtell (though its gone a bit pricey these days), french kiss, dainty dresser, and shopaholixbar as well.

thanks for hearing me out. i apologize if i offended anyone out there, this was drafted while in a very annoyed, irritated and pissed mood.

Hi FT.

i'm currently looking for this item and i hope you can post this up.

I saw it at A Fashion Story at RM15 and it's sold out.

Another blogshop is selling the same bracelet at RM30.

Anyone knows where can I get this bracelet?

Thanks.

Hi Whimsicle,


I wouldn't mind if you post up the balance status here in fashion truth by the end of the week :)!
Dear whimsicle, i will be ending my business very soon and there is no valid reason for me to hold ur refund.
i admit, I've forgotten to insert refund in the parcel at times & infact there is complaint of losing $$. Is it wrong for me to avoid this problem by transferring them thru online banking to my customer?
is this still consider as Making Up? If i intend to, then i wouldn't haf to do it on a small amount, but to a larger one :)!
Not only to you, there are other buyers balance which I have not return as well as said, *altogether*
Why should i not refund the small figure of RM6.00or RM8.00 (if im not mistaken :)!when i get to refund back much larger amount for not restockable item like RM94 or RM100++?
I wouldn't mind if my buyers lost faith or trust in me if it is my first time buyer, but definitely not to my returning customer.
Thank you, this is all i hafto said to make it more clearer to ya!

Love,
Rainbowmallows

hi there,

I would love to thanks reader 117 for pointed out this matter.

No offence to the reader 117, we know that the shoe we are selling looks exactly like the one lush serendity was selling months ago, however, i realise somthing difference which is the brand, the heels that lush serendity r selling are from " Nosse" and ours are "SQ" . Meaning to say we got our shoes from different supplier, and of course i believe the cost could be differ. Its not fair to judge us and sound so sarcasic to us just based on that pricing matter, different supplier quote different price, what's more our shoes are different brand from their.

I believe most of the seller will agree with me on this matter, some are force to sell are different price, just simply because the price we get different price from supplier which most of the time depends on the quatity and availability of that item.

christmas sale are everywhere!
i really think it's the best time to shop.
really have to look properly for good deals and it can certainly be found!

and... i personally am really interested in clothes sold at Autumn Closet
however, it's really over my budget.
some of their clothes are similar to the ones at Enchanting Hearts,
but it's still a bit pricey...
does anyone know where else to find clothes like the ones sold in Autumn Closet?
=)

Hey all,

I bought something from rainbowmallows earlier this year and she had forgot to return my change in with the item.
she said she would transfer it to me because she forgot it but i said it's okay , just minus it off the next purchase.

so about a MONTH ago i had ordered something else from her,
this time there was more change (plus the accumilated one before)
i reminded her to Include the change in and NOT to forget again.

after more than a week i hadnt received my parcel and i contacted her, she said she was busy and will send it out the following.
That was fine with me, im not that fussy, again i reminded her. "please include the change in and dont forget this time"
she said that she would.

so i received my parcel and no change.
i emailed her saying i was a little disappointed and she said she didnt include the change in because customers were complaining about lost money???
er okay....benefit of the doubt since certain customers are fussy.

so she said she would return the money to me via bank transactions. okay fine , i told her my account no and told her NOT to forget.
she said sure again.
after a few days...no change..no email from her..
fine i thought i'd wait awhile , of course she would be busy i wouldnt blame her for it.

after a week i asked her when she was going to return me the change,
and she said she hasnt returned it because she wants to return all her customers change together.........meaning waiting for it to accumilate im assuming
im not even sure what to say about this.

its not the change that really matters its the whole online owners and customers situation.
i'd probably give this till the end of the week then just give up on her.
i'm not sure if she's lazy , busy , or really waiting for ALL her customers change to accumilate or just making it up.
i'd let you girls know if i do ever get my change back.

p.s it's nice to have a place to vent..thanks f.t

hi. i'm the one that wrote in for Request 3 & 4.
can't believe that my request was actually posted up!
happy happy!

just wanted to tell u all that through the help of blogs like these, i can manage to find the items i want. plus, i'm now more careful when i purchase things. i make sure i survey properly first

but it's true what some readers sent in, sometimes the things we like, if we spend so much time surveying, the items will go out of stock very fast. but i suggest, never make decisions without thinking.

anyway, to cut the long story short, am happy that i'm going to get the dress i am searching for very soon from Princess Boutique!! personally speaking, i find the owner really nice. can't wait to meet up with her next week

and to recommend a few other blogshops which i frequent and like :
Autumn Closet, Vibrant Swirls, Buckle Buckle, French Kiss, Enchanting Hearts

and. now i guess i can add Princess boutique too? hopefully!!
can't wait!
