Dear FT,
I loved your blog bcuz of ur time spent to find e-shops and compare their prices, makes us aware and also saves us the money but Isn't the purpose of this blog mainly to compare prices among e-shops and customers satisfactions or not. not about the way they take pictures of their faces , or the way they pout their lips or the way it's distorted. How would you like it if you took a hundred and one pics of ur items and post it up and get some reviews like that, get ur facts right, we're all here to just shop or earn money or watever, if those e-shops actually have a studio and a proper model or whatever they wouldn't be opening a e-shop instead a real boutique. so dun go insulting other ppls blog when u don't noe nuts bout it. It is important to have a proper look at the items you are about to purchase online, so ask them for a clearer or a better shot of it. If you have a problem with the way they take their pictures go to them directly and let them noe not broadcast it so that everyone else realise it and making e-shops lose customers bcuz of ur nasty comments. Get all ur facts right, you open the blog for a reason, don't turn it into one insulting gossip column. DO POST THIS UP. Thank you
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!

"the objective of this blog:
to create a medium between buyers and sellers. also, to guide buyers as to where they may get the best deal."
where does it say that people shouldn't complain about the way people take pictures? everybody has their own opinion, and this is a blog where opinions get VOICED.
if an e-shop is losing customers, it's probably not because of the way they take their pictures. come on, who on earth is that shallow? you're insulting everybody's intelligence here lor. and a real boutique takes MUCH, MUCH more than a 'studio and a proper model'. there's one blogshop (forgot which la, sorry) that hires a professional photographer to shoot their clothes. isn't that commitment to the extreme, and what a lot of us would like to see from other sellers? obviously not everyone can do that, but the fact that people are doing it makes your point about studios etc moot.
people broadcast their opinions because they can. just like how you are broadcasting yours. and why are you attacking the owner of FT, it's not like she's the one making the comments! she's just posting them up -.-
"How would you like it if you took a hundred and one pics of ur items and post it up and get some reviews like that"
of course everyone's going to be hurt. no one likes having their pictures (and, indirectly, themselves) being dissed. but i would think that if the picture-taker was a RATIONAL person, they'd get up and move on. maybe even try to change the way they photograph so that it would appeal to more people. personally i think it's a good thing to talk about because some blogshops really do have ATROCIOUS photos. if they have the time to take clear shots and send them to customers who request them, why not take clear & good shots in the first place?? tak masuk akal.
there are a million other things i would like to say, but i'm trying to keep this as friendly as possible :P
Hi Reader 108,
Do note that most of the mails here are sent in by online shoppers. Hence comments, criticisms and whatever are mostly from them and not FT, even though FT does sometimes provide rather neutral commentaries on the emails.
Well, if FT start moderating emails sent in by people I'm sure everyone's gonna make a big thing out of it saying its not fair and all.. so in a way we're probably getting more honest opinions from shoppers out there so we could all improve this way.
So we'd just have to read with an open mind. =)
Dear Kero & Phasionology
Thank you very much!
