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!
[edited on 6.1.09]

blogroll

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.

thank u

Lush Serendipity came out with this heels 2 months ago at only RM55













http://lushserendipity.blogspot.com/2008/10/preppy-mary-heels-rm55-colours-black.html



Dusky Wings just came out with this recently at RM65



http://duskywings.blogspot.com/2008/12/killer-pump.html

and i thought people always mention that the longer the stocks, the cheaper it will get. I am sure Dusky Wings got it at a way cheaper price as the time duration has already been 2 months yet selling RM10 more expensive. and she wrote (Splurge and steal), yeah right.

Hi hun!
Just saw your latest Price Comparisons and I'd just like to clarify that because I am an avid online buyer and I know the actual wholesaler prices, I just add a few dollars to them because it hurtsss real bad when you find out that the garment you've just ordered online is a lot more than what the actual price was :( :( :( ! i mean no harm or negativity towards the sellers who adds a lil bit more to the prices because they just want to find a source of income.

i am not sure whether we have the identical pair but i bought this pair of leggings from another online boutique and they were ripped at the seams -_-

that's the reason why i started my own online boutique!
i try to sell the best quality and provide good customer service because i'd like to be treated the same way too!
i can't say why the prices vary so much but the shoppers have to shop smart! ;D

thks for you time ya!
have a good day! :)

P/S: i mean no harm or negativity to any other e-shop owners >< !

hi fashion truth,

I am a avid follower of your blog ... :) because I fully believe that buyers have the rights in knowing what's really going on - and when they're being ripped off ... after all, not everyone has time to look around EVERY blogshop to "research" the best deals!

I was recently hunting for a high-waisted skirt ... and the one from Kiss My Shopping Ass caught my eye.


from: http://kissmyshoppingass.blogspot.com/

Selling at RM 55 ... which I thought was quite okay since she mentioned its of a good quality.


Then I found the exact same piece at Phat Culture ...
affordable price tag. :)





from: http://www.phatculture.com/2008/11/phat-high-waisted-skirt-brown-edition.html

selling at only RM 39! And they have 3 colors ... =/ to me anything less than a RM 8 difference is alrite I guess, but I thought that this was quite crazy. Just wanted to share this with you girls ...

hi there,
Just writting to make some comment on some blogshop i went through.
Duskywings- a new blogshop but i think they provide a good service. she's so friendly and passion not only in explaning and reply my email. Also she waited me for bout 30 min during our COD. I was stuck in the jam due to an accident on federal highway, and i was so sorry to keep her waiting, but guess what, she just waited with her smiling face. The shoes she's selling us superb and comfy most of all. Well, i think for that kind of price, im certainly satisfy with her as a new seller in this e-shopping word. I would love to give a big credit to her! Also, i notice the new clincher from them which is sold out at Attireattic! Guess what ? eventhough it sold out at Attireattic but i still can get it at DUskywings, also with a cheaper price! definitely going for Duskywings again. SInce i like her service and of cos her price!

i like Forever 21 stuff. and the above picture is one of their basic tops.
this type of top comes in many different colours.

anyway, i was browsing through xoxo Kiss


this is the top that they're selling and according to them, it's similar to the F21 top.
they're selling it at RM25

and it's written, "Don't feel like paying more for the exact design and superb quality?"

just to let u know, this particular top is selling in F21 outlets at about Rm25.
there are one particular range, plain tops too, selling at RM19.

i hope this can be an eye opener for those of u who like F21 but rarely visit their outlets
thanks!

Hey FT,

This is just a suggestion to online shops, as a compulsive online shopper i find it a tad irritating when you put music on your blog. I tend to open 5-6 sites at one go and when your music starts playing, its somewhat disrupting. I'm using a mac so unfortunately i dont have that X button that allows me to stop ongoing progress on the blog and sometimes its difficult to identify which blog has music and which doesn't. I know this seems petty and i'm sorry but i'm just an online shopper thats voicing my opinion. Some people may like the music and some might not. Just thought i'd bring it up. Thanks for your time :)

Happy shopping and Happy holidays everyone!
