/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

Been a lonelolita for awhile. Finally found a comm. They're having a swap meet in a few months. I have things to sell/trade but I have no idea what the conduct of a swap meet entails. Do I pre-price things? or are they for trading only?

Okay guys, I just got a message back.

She explained to me the reason she release two prints at once was because the people that print her fabric need a minimum order. And when she opened the reserve for l'oracle only 2 of her friends reserved, so she opened up the second series asylum. But then when they got shared on social media, more people were interested, so she got flooded with orders.

she basically confirmed what an anon said in the last general thread and what >>8573256 just said. She is a one woman brand, and also owns her own shop that sales other lolita items. So she works two jobs. And because she has been busy she pretty much ran out of time to make everyone's orders in a high quality.

I explained to her that if you needed more time, I could have waited. I'd much rather have a quality piece late, then a crap piece on time. (but in nicer words). She told me in the email that:
>most of the people want their items fast, soon, now. And las weeks of production period I was reciving some "when you finnish??" "I need the dress for an event next week!!" etc. People get super angry with delays. This maked me work under pressure. Again I am sorry this situation afected the results.

She said she'd remake the Jsk for me. and then when she ships it back she'll include the extra panel for the skirt. (this is the solution I was hoping for, but I'm still wary of her execution).

>picrelated
However the problem I'm now with is How exactly do I go about asking for her to pay for the return shipping? Because I'm already out almost $300 for items that don't fit me, I don't wanna risk losing anymore money.

I really hope I have enough money saved in the next three months to be able to get Classic Fairy Tales second hand.
Gawd, why is RIGHT NOW the time everything is happening and all of the bills and shiz.

Gah it's like this every time.
>omg da drama in Seattle comm
>I ask about it
>oh, there's not really any, join us.

Bah my heart is conflicted.

At least tell me this:
>How clique-y is it? aka will I be able to make ANY friends?
>Does anyone have a thing against fatty-chans?

After not wearing nanchatte seifuku for years, I finally thought I'd start wearing it again.
Only I just found out someone I know has a school uniform fetish.
I feel really uncomfortable now and I'm mad because I was really unsure about getting back into it since I feel old for it and just when I finally convince myself of course something has to make me feel weird and not want to do it.

My dream dress is on lacemarket. It's a little under $300. I just got paid, but i was planning on saving that money. So I could buy it, but I'm hesitant. And also it's like one size too small for me, but I've been trying to lose weight.
all the feels. what should i do?

In panic mode because the badges I bought off ebay where supposed to get here Monday, it's almost Wednesday and I still haven't gotten them, and the tracking number is bullshit.

At this point I don't care whether I cosplay or not, I just wanna get there.
