Just a heads up gulls, superbuy changed the way you do rehearsal packaging now. First 10 items are 20 yuan, each additional item is 1 extra yuan. My parcel's gonna be 41 items and the total charge for rehearsal (now called "Superbuy shipping expert service" which you gotta purchase in the warehouse BEFORE submitting parcels or the tab for it goes away) is $10 instead of the old flat rate of $3ish USD.

>> No.10602453

>>10602437
Wow, that sucks. For hauls that have a lot of items like yours you might as well just pay for the estimated shipping and get the refund.

>> No.10602532

>>10602453
I'm hoping I'll still save quite a bit of money since the estimated shipping cost was $300 (which seems a little ridiculous since I saw other 14kg hauls shown on their app in the user section being only $150-200). If not, at least I still have my shipping coupons and loyalty points. Still shit they added on more costs for rehearsal shipping though.

Sugargoo is new on the scene, but they have the cheapest currency exchange/shipping rates of all the agents I've tried (Superbuy, Bhiner, 42agent, Spreenow). I've done a couple of hauls with them now and each time I've experienced excellent service.

I'm also in the USA and have had no troubles using taobao's international logistic services. I've gotten a few aliwangwang messages from sellers involving sizing, etc but google translate helps. The only thing you may want to use a SS for is preorders, I'm not sure if you can do those without one

>>10602887
Yes, I've run into that before. I called my bank and they said my card was getting declined because the billing address was wrong, I double checked and it was correct but Taobao stores your address in Chinese order which may throw it off.

The skirt has an adjustable waist and a pocket! I bought a size up for it to be baggy on me and it looks good. desu I bought this just for fun not expecting much but it's quite nice.

I'm a dumbass. this is only a partial wig. It's a small circle constructed to clip into your real hair to give it more volume and hime bangs, not a full wig like I thought. Smelled very strongly of chemicals when I opened the box and stank up the room I opened it in for hours. The fibers are very soft but get tangled easily, it was tangled when I opened it and a bitch to sort out. It looks pretty natural indoors but didn't pass the flash test.
The quality is only okay, so I wouldn't really recommend it. Don't make the same mistake I did and buy it thinking it was a full wig kek

Anon with the Yolanda blouses here with a late review.

Something that doesn't show well in the stock photos and mine is that the sleeves are a layer of lace and chiffon? with these glitter strands sewn in which look amazing when the light hits them. The top bow isn't detachable and the collar part isn't elastic. However the sleeves are elastic and the bows on them aren't detachable either but I think the lace on the sleeves could bother some people's skin.

I thought this was a cotton blouse for some reason so be wary that it's a poly blouse. The sleeves have elastic on them and it's fit was comfortable for me. (I have moderately bulky arms but they fit nicely without strain) There's these waist tie like ribbons on the waist which...is a nice addition. It has a clasp second from the top for puckering? But I wouldn't rely on it to prevent more than a little puckering. If your near the end of a size, I would recommend you just size up.

Size was not a issue again, although I think I could have afforded to go a size down for this blouse since it felt a bit loose fitting on my frame. The collar bow is detachable for this blouse and the lace wasn't itchy for me. I bought this since I was interested in the idea of a convertible blouse using a drawstring, but I'm still on the fence. The drawstring uses a glass bead on the end of it and I could see it breaking easier in hime mode. As for the look... it's nice? But I think I would just wear this as a puffed sleeve way more than as a hime blouse. Maybe it would be a nice alternative if you want to wear a casual hime cord in the ssummer? Also, the pearl that's on the end of the drawstring isn't big enough to prevent the drawstring from slipping out of the channel so be prepared to put it back in if it gets out.

Sorry, I have tried my best. My Mandarin is rubbish.

Important matters: (Please read! Achtung!)
- For bulk-production, OP will have a few tweaks, adjusting the breast, adding to the waistline, and will have some differences from the picture.
- OP's sides don't have zippers and its back is all shirring (going off the translation in OP's guide for this one. Incidentally, OP only has the traditional version for some reason. 鬆緊 (Traditional) = 松紧 (Simplified) = 素鸡 (vegan chicken, a homonym)).
- OP will be a bit tight for those with large breasts, please exercise caution.
- The embroidery on the drapey part (that meshy, gauzy thing above the dress, I have no idea what that's called, sorry) and the chest might have a bit of fraying and some skipped stitches. This is a normal occurrence. Please be careful.
- It's normal that the overhang with the embroidery on the drapey part might be a bit tight and look unnatural. It's normal, you can stretch it (lit. pull a bit) before wearing.
- JSK's sides have zippers but there is no shirring at all. Before you choose a size please be aware what measurements are suitable for you.
- The material of OP and JSK's designs and jacquards may snag slightly (or lose threads, I don't really know). This is a normal occurrence.
- The cloak (the third item)'s hat is removable.
- The third item has a high collar which might be slightly turned over. This is a normal occurence with quality control.
- The third item has two layers of mesh (muslin?) on the shoulders which get slightly upturned during transit. It should be fine after a bit of ironing.
- Small items like the epaulettes and the bows are all pinned and might damage the dress, please be careful.
- No more than 50 of each model will be produced.

Some pieces (like the black cape, shirt, and shoulder stole) are arriving later in June, so they aren't in this order, but everything else I got is of a pretty superior quality!

Really nice quality! There are two alligator clips at the top so it will stay in place, and it’s kind of gathered up at the top a bit. I thought the front would be a little more like a bridal veil, so it would be just sort of scalloped or rounded it at the front, but there isn’t a piece like that. It’s a little hard to describe, so I’ve included a picture. (My pinky and thumb are pointing to the areas where the alligator clips are.)

It's complicated because of the listings being very vague on what they are, my orders got cancelled several times because the listings were either on hold, were trade only listings or were just people listing the item not to sell it but to show it off.

Honestly not sure how to feel about this one. It's just such an interesting and unique design, but I think I may have liked the idea of it more than I do wearing it. The upper portion looks nice, but the material on the bottom portion looks pretty cheap, esp considering the price tag. It has a string at the waist to cinch, but no nice trim or anything so I wouldn't wear it on the outside. Tried on the white with a Baby JSK and liked it. Tried on the black with Meta's Magical Artefact and not sure how I feel about it, as I was hoping I could pair that together. I'll see if it grows on me.

I was kind of underwhelmed trying this one on; the lace on the sleeves doesn't look as nice as it does in the stock photos and reminds me of curtain fabric. The sleeves also don't sit where they should since it's free size and I'm 5'5" with arms on the longer side. I'll have to try it on with a few more dresses to see if I want to keep it.

Very nice and worth the price tag. I got the wine. Doesn't wrinkle too badly. The sleeves are really loose and so is the fit. I got the L size and the sleeve length is perfect. The buttons are covered by a little flap, which has beautiful embroidery details. Comes with a removable brooch.

Got three blouses from Yilia and this is my least favourite. Got the XL in Apricot. Pros: nice lace, sleeve length is perfect for me. Cons: wrinkly, pretty sheer. I think it'd look better after some steaming so the collar and lace lay nicely, but I don't think it looks as nice as it does in the stock photo. Something about this blouse just does not vibe with me and I don't like how it looks on me. I'll probably end up selling it I think. At <$20 USD you get what you pay for. Also, idk if that's Apricot in the stock photo, but what I received was yellowish and barely darker than off-white.

Second Yilia blouse. Got the XL. Still sheer, but I love the sleeves. You can cinch them or let them loose, they have lots of volume and are quire flowy. Happy with this one.

got the XL in white. The details on the front are pretty, and I feel like it'd really stand out when paired with a skirt, but you'll need to wear a cami underneath bc it's also quite sheer. Again, it's around $20, and you can tell it's a taobao blouse, but I'm happy with it considering those things.

not much to say about these, they're dirt cheap and very stretchy. Stock photos are just a tad off imo; the navy is much brighter, the red is darker and duller, and the pink is slightly cooler and less peachy than it appears on my monitor.

Very pleasantly surprised with this one considering the price. The material is soft and doesn't wrinkle, and is opaque. I got the navy blue with stand up collar option, I think I originally ordered the XL but received the XXL? I will have to double check, but it ended up fitting perfectly. The navy is not as vibrant as it is in the stock photo, more dull and dark but that works for me. The bow is removable.

This blouse has to be my favourite of the entire bunch. It fit me so perfectly in the bust and the sleeves (L), and the colour is beautiful and true to the stock photo. I got the pale pinkish gray. The material is really soft and almost velvety and it's quite opaque. Honestly I think I'm gonna go back and order this also in apricot and white, I just really like this style on me and I think I found my perfect lolita blouse lol. And at around $20, it's so much nicer compared to the blouses from Yilia. If you're gonna go for super cheap blouses, I recommend them from here or the link above.

That's it for the blouses! One last thing I'll note is that any blouse that had buttons on it came with a replacement button in a little ziplock bag, sometimes more than one if the blouse uses more than one style of button.

I don't recognise the dress but from the wallpaper I'm guessing it's Mary Magdalene's stock photo? I'd be cautious because there's no photos of the coat itself

Is anyone having issues with product pages not loading on the mainland site? I've tried different browsers, disabled ad blockers, tried mobile, etc, but the pages won't load (but the browsing pages do so it's not an issue with the entire site itself)

>>10626539 is right, it is a replica. Would be careful, most MM replicas really don't stack up to the real thing, and in a bad way.

Anyone have experience with the sizing of antaina shoes? I'm a US 8 for reference. Also, how much does a pair of shoes tend to drive up shipping prices on average?

I bought that headbow in black and the little charm instantly broke off. It's a cute headbow without it, though. Would be interested to see if yours last longer than mine did.

I second what >>10623559 said. I have a pair of pic related and they're incredibly comfy. Very thick and solid cotton. Next time I make an order I'll get another pair from their shop in black.

I've disappeared from the internet for like, a month or so. I'm surprised there's no more old-school inspired lolita in taobao... I thought it was going to become popular.

Have you guys found anything similar during this time?

Here you go! I actually have this dress in white too! Loved it so much that I bought the navy colourway.

The shoes were a little pricey but I'm pretty sure they're real leather.

Thanks for letting me know!

Hoping to match the wristcuffs with Baby's lace frill JSK.

As for the bow, I was actually going to remove the charm anyway (fingers crossed that the shoes and the green kc match irl!).

How badly marked up is DHL to Canada right now (using 42agent)? I've only used EMS recently and it's pretty expensive compared to before plus massive delays. I'm just looking to get a few things, and I don't wanna be surprised with a $300 shipping fee...

How accurate do have you all found the shipping calculators for agents you’ve used?
Bhiner is giving me the cheapest estimate for a package that is 50x10x20cm 2kg...any experience with Bhiner shipping accuracy?
Anyone get a similar size/weight package shipped, what was the price and which agent? Thanks
