Yep. Their dream sky was a replica and on top of that the HL pieces in like new condition are most possibly as well.

Plus selling HC with a huge stain on the front they claim they didn't notice and 'totally blends in with the brown in the print' for $950

[Anonymous No.10377858]

>>10377854

Someone last thread claimed that the person who bought it was their friend and BINd the listing to get rid of it because someone bid on it before they could delete it?

Smells fishy though; why wouldn't you check for a replica before listing on LM given they are against rules? And how do you not notice your dress is a replica when it's not even a good one, the beads on the straps were so clearly wrong and they admittedly bought it under shady pretenses, yet promoting the piece as a rare brand prototype for collectors.

Scalpers buying from other scalpers. (Kokoro's stuff is overpriced for sure but definitely not as bad as this new "10 year wardrobe" chick).

[Anonymous No.10377881]

>>10377863

At least she knows no one wants that kind of thing on LM and only uninformed people who shop for lolita on eBay would buy it.

The tag thing reminds me of how once someone on LM was selling Angelic Pretty tags and I can only imagine they're trying to use them to pass off replicas as brand.

[Anonymous No.10377892]

How many scammers are going on at the moment? I tried to follow old thread, but Tag-chan appears to be different from HC tard? All of their photos are different and mostly consistent backgrounds. I looked at the bidding history on Tag-chan's post, and it looks like everything started pretty cheaply. But anon's have mentioned things being overpriced? Are we talking about two or three different people or the same? Or is my reading comprehension just fucking retarded. Is HC seller also the factory replica seller?

[Anonymous No.10377897]

>>10377892

From what I know:

HC seller is replica seller passing replicas off as samples/the real thing or trying to.

Tag chan isn't neccesarily a scalper, but their behavior of putting a BABY tag on an AP item was strange, and everyone was originally profit by their eBay selling when the first posted.

Kokoro on LM has overpriced but not neccesarily scalping level listings but was just seen listing used replicas on a FB lolita sales group as actual replicas, but has 15 negative feedback on LM for other reasons.

[Anonymous No.10377898]

There's something I don't really get about bidding on LM. If bidding for an item starts at $X, is there any way to place a bid of $X or can the lowest bid you can make only be $X+1? Last time I bid on an item it would only let me do the latter.

[Anonymous No.10377906]

I know the person selling all of the 10-year listings personally and besides the Dream Sky fiasco, can attest that her collection is real. She has always overpriced her sale listings and has a high turnaround on pieces so those HLs with the tag still attached don't surprise me.

[Anonymous No.10377909]

>>10377897
Posted this on the wrong thread. I looked HC/10years up and she seems genuine, but she is definitely pricing for the trump bucks. Her lacemarket screen name pulls up her twitch where you can see her wardrobe in the background. Her username also pulled up a bunch of old livejournal stuff. She's no stranger to replicas, but I think her HLs are real.

[Anonymous No.10377936]

She is (or I guess was) the kind of person that did that, would maybe wear them once, and then resell them. Usually for more than she paid, but she'd often go for popular things that held or increased value (as you can see by current listings)

[Anonymous No.10377942]

>>10377906
Proof if you're gonna make that claim? If she's been in the fashion for 10 years then she KNEW that Dream Sky was a replica and tried to sell it as a legit ~prototype~. She tried to excuse the obvious replica details as just slight differences because it was a ~rare prototype~ even though it's well known the factory replicas used those lace and buttons because they didn't have access to AP's, even if they did have the same fabric ("it looks like AP to me!"). Between that and dismissing the stain on HC, she's giving off shady behavior and seems like she's trying to scam newbies out of their trumpbucks. If those are real HL's, then the least she can do after the Dream Sky fiasco is include better proof photos proving that they're real. Anyone can attach a price tag (people have sold them before on lm) so why doesn't she post photos of the actual ap tag inside the dress? Or just more detail shots?

That group allows replicas. Peachie sold all her replicas in same group and nobody complained. I unfollowed her when I saw how she sold all her fake dresses to get pocket money for her Japan trip, I know she got the replicas in different times but as a famous lolita youtuber to sell that shit now is not fine at all.

[Anonymous No.10377948]

>>10377936

I'd believe that about other pieces except...Honey Cake was always historically unpopular I thought? It went on sale and people didn't particularly like it until well after it's release, right?

I could be wrong on that though. Just seems hard to trust someone whose behavior has been mighty shady with the whole "prototype" fiasco and pretending an obvious stain isn't woefully obvious.

[Anonymous No.10377950]

>>10377947

I assumed they were allowed, doesn't make them not shitty to have bought though.

I'm sad to hear peachie bought replicas...regardless of it being a different time, she does art and graphic design I believe so she should know how bad art theft is.

[Anonymous No.10377954]

>>10377948
nayrt but if memory serves you're correct. However, you can see from the listing that she bought it second-hand, so it's possible she only became interested in buying it once the hype started.

Peachie had only one AP lucky bag dress and the rest of her wardrobe was made of bodyline and many replicas but I am not sure if at the time I knew owning replicas was bad. We looked up to Peachie becouse she was a lolita we could relate to, just like many of us she was a poor kid with a big love for Jfashion, it was different 10 years ago, brand was hard to get and we were poor kids that could afford only Bodyline.

[Anonymous No.10377968]

She bought it after it's release secondhand when it was just starting to get popular. I don't think she paid $950 for it, but it was over retail.

>>10377942
Back when these Dream Sky JSKs were showing up 8 years ago, they were being paraded around as prototypes because the fabric is exactly the same as the actual release. If she never did any more research than that, I get why she listed it as a prototype.
I know 100% those HLs are real, though. The comm she was in did a group order on the AP MTO for them.

I get why she would want to price things high if this is the case, but her listings will sell far faster if she prices them more reasonably. Four $500 listings may result in $0 instead of the $2000 she wants, vs if she lowers the prices she may get $350-$400 or so for each set (I'm thinking specifically of HL) and result in her having around $1,000-$1,200 because they'll actually sell at the lower price.

HC would definitely sell immediately if the price wasn't so high; the pink set with socks in good condition sold for around $800, so the yellow set with less items would probably be closer to $600 with the stain, it being a rereleased colorway but not a rereleased cut. Maybe I'm lowballing on the HC but it's just the JSK and headbow and that stain is an eyesore.

[Anonymous No.10378034]

>>10378024

I don't think anyone was saying it is an obligation to price low. In fact, most of the attention on the account was for seemingly shady behavior like the replica being sold as a protoype even though a "10 year" lolita should know better and pretending damages aren't as visible as they are.

Forgive me if this makes me sound new, but I was never a fan of Holy Lantern so I don't pay attention to the constant rereleases and going prices. Is Holy Lantern still really worth that much ($500) after being released so many times over the years?

[Anonymous No.10378040]

>>10378039

They were all sets, with socks and a barette or something. Certain things are rarer that didn't get a rerelease like the headbow I think? I don't remember if they rereleased the socks. I remember the original socks on at least some of them having gold sparkles when the metal on parts of the dress was silver or vice versa so I don't actually know if those are in high demand.

Yeah they're all easy to find if you look through completed listings and filter by AP and US. Going off the last thread I don't think the replica actually sold for $500, her friend bought it after anon sent a message to the person who bid on it iirc

>>10378039
As much as people are willing to pay I guess. I wouldn't mind a zipper HL because it looks really flattering on most people, but it's not high enough of a priority on my wishlist to shell out that amount. As as >>10378040 mentioned they were all sets.

She appears to be wearing tights or at least pantyhose. But she looks like she would look about the same in lolita if she chose to get dolled up again.

The difference between TikTok and Vine is that most Vine famous people were already in the media business. Like Vine made Kingbach popular, but he was already involved in improv and comedy circles. Same as Jason Nash, and Brittany Furlan.

The only exception seems to be the Paul Brothers, who were just average white kids who go big on Vine and managed to have that following carry over to youtube. Most vine celebrities couldn't though.

genetics and age are part of it, another part of it is women having kids and having less time to diet/exercise post-birth. Getting sedentary office jobs. It's a mixture of everything. And science works in average, studies may show that metabolism differences account for an average of 5 pounds past a certain age, but everyone's bodies and metabolisms are different.

I work with kids too, so I feel your pain. I think showing your face is pretty crucial to vlogging/social media, though.

>>10378205
For me, it's not the content that matters too much. I and many others would watch stuff ranging from how-tos (makeup, coordinates, posing, taking photos, sewing) to advice (handling concrit, handling unsupportive friends/family), coverage of the latest drama, story times, top ten lists, reviews, etc... I think the content creator should pick what excites them to do, because that excitement will make their content interesting.

The most important things are really excellent video/photo/sound quality, decent editing skills, an authentic personality, and regular community engagement. By 'authentic' I mean that the person doesn't use a voice/put on
a persona, or act how they think a lolita should act. If it's authentic for you to curse, great. If not, then that's fine too. By 'community engagement,' that could be your own local community, the online community, etc in some meaningful way. Vlog yourself putting together a lolita event, reviewing indie designers, holding Q and As, play multiplayer games on Twitch, something. I enjoy following lolitas who contribute to the community in some way, not just someone who can buy the newest releases or put together a great coord.

Flaunting stupid. Shows you have low morals, low bar for quality, bad judgement about resale value, there's limitations to where you can wear it to (it'll never be acceptable for brand tea parties and such); while we're on that topic, replicachans throughout history already made a bad name for themselves complaining about not being allowed to wear replicas to meet the designers at brand tea parties, and now you want to ask "what's wrong with being lumped into this group of these exceptionally insane, stupid people?"

I mean, most people are fairly sane and won't bother witch-hunting you if you buy a replica, but t's definitely something you don't want to publicise too loudly, there's not much good about it and everything hints at you being stupid.

Don't misunderstand. In the first place, anon didn't ask about why not to buy replicas, she asked why one should be worried about being seen buying replicas, as secondhand ones aren't supporting replicamakers. And my answer isn't about morals either, it's that you're flaunting your lack of similar morals to your peer group (other lolitas).

That makes it easy for other people to assume the worst of you. So, if you're selling something, someone could bring that you bought a replica and maybe you're now selling replicas. If you can buy replicas, why would you not also be okay with lying? How about stealing from another lolita? They know you support replicas, where's the proof you don't support lying or other forms of evil. Someone steals your artwork and photos? Replicawearers typically get told to fuck off since they themselves are wearing stolen artwork.

See, you publicised that you have less/different morals than girls who won't touch replicas do, so now you have to work so much harder to prove that you do actually have morals somewhere. So not worth the trouble.

JM has always been more expensive. They’re smaller than most lolita brands and have an older clientele, smaller production, upscale boutique feel. Made in Japan, sometimes by factories using heritage techniques ie only one factory in Japan makes X by hand, and use fabrics like wool tweed, velveteen, etc. Prints are usually cupra fabric so made in Japan probably Bemberg? and more eco-friendly than the polyester most brands are using these days.

custom sizing, you can order yardage of fabric from them, and custom orders for any of their prints. but looking at the digital art, it's lacking a certain pop and contrast that you see with the big brands. plus they apparently do resell a few things from other taobao companies and put their names on it, so it's weird. they're acting like an indie seller but they might be another resale shop with better social media savvy.

[Anonymous No.10379697]

It's a worldwide lolita sales group and they allow replicas I think.

I think she really is in Texas though, her LM location was Texas and I bought from her once (she has a bad attitude and ships slow af though, plus many of her negative reviews about stuff not really being new or being more damaged or worn than it is are definitely true)

>>10379522

Those bunny ear Cutsews are from a taobao brand called Forest Rabbit or something (someone in the stupid questions thread has posted a link to the shop) and she is selling them alone for like $70 USD when they only ever cost between $20-$30 USD. She probably added 70 to the price because of the "value" of the cutsew.

She is always overpriced but it seems she has been emboldened by the "10-year" scalper. Which is what some of us were afraid of. If the person listing the most things on LM right now has high prices, other people may list for those outrageous prices and not market price for the item (or if they're already somewhat overpriced like Kokoro, they just go even further and make shit even more crazy expensive)

In both examples of selling replicas this and last thread though, people either knowingly bought replicas and passed them off as real (10-year-chan) or knowingly bought replicas and sold them as replica while saying "blah blah I know they're bad but I bought them a long time ago" (Kokoro)
