"Usually" doesn't even apply right now cause everything is STILL fucked from covid. There is a limited number of flights leaving China, so packages are moving more slowly.

DHL/FedEx/UPS where available will take 3-7 business days, because they each have their own flights. But be prepared to pay out the ass.
EMS is normally supposed take 5-10 business days. Several anons have reported it taking 2+ months right now.
SAL is supposed to take like 4-6 weeks, it's taking 3+ months rn from what I can see.
Idk about other methods (airmail, etc.)

I would wait before ordering, but also be aware that many SS will store your items for free, even for several months. If you're worried about stuff selling out you can always order now and ship it from the warehouse once you've moved.

I'm having a similar issue with my SS. I was on a waiting list for a dress I missed the preorder for, but the item disappeared and I never received my tokens/money back. I messaged the company about it using their messaging service but I'm afraid they'll claim I never paid for it or was refunded.

I did a pre-order directly through Taobao that was no where near the required production, the seller messaged me to say it was cancelled and refunded me. Your seller will probably message you too to let you know it didn't go through but if not, follow them up about it, because some absolutely won't if they think you'll forget and they'll get away with it. But possibly they even have the prototype/ sample items they might sell you??

>>10635842
As for this, if you were waiting for leftovers and missed out but paid your SS, that is now their problem and they should refund you. I doubt the shop will refund you directly as they will want the order number etc. but if you paid your SS and they haven't received anything you should definitely be trying to get your money back!

The more well-known ones are Yolanda (classic, sweet), Infanta (sweet) and Hinana Queena (OTT classic). My personal favorite brands are Bell House (sweet), Fantastic Wind (classic) and Cheese Cocoa (sweet). Yillia is great for blouses and Sosic Shop has decent shoes.

>> No.10636697

>>10636659
I would like to add to this -

Infanta, imo, is a little below brand in terms of quality. But is miles above Bodyline for example.
I wouldn't recommend Yillia for blouses necessarily. They're OK but you get what you pay for. My favourite I've got from them is the sheer gauzy stretchy blouse. I think as far as cheap blouses go, Orchid Lane is a much better alternative.
Ecailles de Lune for gothic and classic is great, even better than Infanta for quality. I have Forest of Pipe Organ from them and the print is crisp, lace is good quality, and construction is good. I would say they're about on par for brand, at least with this dress.
Surface Spell is great too. I just got a blouse from them and the details were really beautiful.

There really is a wide range of quality on taobao. Read reviews. And honestly, for the most part, the price is often a good reflection of how good the dress is gonna be. Not always, there are exceptions, but it's a good enough guideline. The dress you bought for $40 brand new is gonna look like it cost $40. The dress that's $120 probably has a lil more going on. Use your brains, don't let the cheap cheap prices sway you if that's not the quality you want in your wardrobe.

I had no gapping, and the sleeve length was exactly right on me. Usually when I order stuff that's free size, the sleeves are way too short.

Pic related of me trying the blouse. I was trying to see what it would look like with an underbust jsk, so forgive me for the clashing pinks. I brought my arm across my body to show where the bottom of the sleeve ends up. I've had blouses with sleeves short enough that they exposed anywhere from an inch to several below my wrist, so this is nice. Also a bonus for me is that I was wearing a grey bra but the material is opaque enough that you cannot tell at all, which was not the case with my Yillia blouses (although I did like a couple of them, so I wouldn't write the entire store off).

See, that's what I thought it meant, but when I tried to order my SS said it's not in stock. I requested that they ask the seller if they plan on stocking more of the L size and they said the seller doesn't know if it'll be stocked in the future. So...idk.

Oh, and I just realized I posted a duplicate link earlier. https://item.taobao.com/item.htm?id=623317976535 is the actual cardi I wanted to order, but I wanted to show both links since both are nice.
Anyway, I tried looking for more cardigans using lolita开衫内搭 as well as the taobao dictionary term for lolita, both with very little success. If no one has links, search tips would be appreciated too.

It's been 4 months since my last taobao order and it STILL hasn't arrived. Should I be worried? Is shipping fucked in china in general, or did I get unlucky?
My proxy has been yoybuy for a while, it's been working fine. I contacted him the first 2 months and first they told me that there might have been a bad parcel first and that might have delayed my order, okay. Then I contacted them again after the 3rd and told me that china's regulations are too strict so there might be delays.

If either of you are still here, or someone else who has bought from Milky Ange, I'd like to please ask for some advice. When I contacted them about sizing they recommended size ML for the Jenny Mini for me (https://www.milky-ange.com/fs/milkyange/maid/jennymini)) and suggested that I also buy these bloomers (https://www.milky-ange.com/fs/milkyange/undies/trudy)) in case the skirt of the Jenny is too short for me. I'm mostly going to be wearing this at home, however, so I'm not so sure I want to spend $55 on bloomers. Can I get something similarly frilly and comfortable to this from taobao for less? I don't really know which stores to look at as I haven't considered buying bloomers before. I can just bite the bullet and pay for these if necessary but I'd rather spend my money the dress itself.

I also wonder if it's possible to get the mini-petticoat they have (https://www.milky-ange.com/fs/milkyange/ltpannier)) from taobao though I'm sure the design or quality wont be up to the same standard.

You can also check the store spreadsheet for more shops that carry bloomers if one of these don't work for you.

Taobao will also definitely carry short pettis, it won't be the exact model Milky Ange offers but yes, it will be cheaper. I would see if there's any cosplay stores that do a lot maid stuff in the store spreadsheet, one of them is bound to have a workable petti.

I have my eye on a particular cosplay dress from this store that looks to be of a high quality. They have a lot of items priced at 9999 but I understand that the 9999 yuan prices tend to be placeholder prices for coming soon items or out of stock items to be restocked.
So a month ago, through a SS rep, I asked the seller when it would be available, and how much it would actually cost, and I got the answer August 3rd for 3000yuan. I waited, and August 3rd came and went and when I checked the price hadn't changed so I messaged again through the same rep and they said it was now not going to be released until January.
So what gives? Am I being rused or is this common? What's to stop me waiting to January and then they delay it again for no reason?

Thanks anon! Yeah I'd prefer to buy the official one because at least then the higher price would be worth it; and the official is usually better quality/no defects when I buy from the Sanrio store or wherever compared to Taobao/Ali, but if they aren't in stock anywhere besides resellers I'll just get it from Taobao cheap.

EMS has been fucked for months, lol. check archives, anons have been sharing their woes about it (including myself).

I had one package in April take 8 or 10 weeks, and another just recently 3.5 weeks (which was actually a pleasant surprise bc I was expecting worse).

The tldr of it is that EMS depends on the availability of flights and there haven't been many leaving China bc covid is still fucking shit up, but couriers such as DHL, UPS, etc have their own flights so they are unaffected and will deliver on time.

I think this depends on both origin and destination, so for example, there were limited flights from China to NA and Europe, as well as Japan to NA and possibly Europe as well. I think I saw someone mention they were super worried about an AP order and it ended up taking a total of 3 months to get to them. At some point, Japan suspended EMS to some countries altogether.

Delaying your order is wise, the only other option is to either pay out the ass for courier like DHL or pay EMS prices for SAL speeds lol.

Lol. Turns out I was moaning for nothing and got my package shortly after posting. I was just being an impatient brat cos it has stuff I wanted ASAP. So actually only ended up taking about 25 days to NZ. But definitely have heard other Anons mentioning 3 month long debacles recently!

But yep, recommend ordering direct with one of the Taobao couriers if you can, as I said 4PX was super fast to NZ! I'd be worried to order EMS if needing anything in a hurry as I think 25days is the quick turn around time at this point.

It came in, the cotton is thick and the lace is indeed also cotton. The ribbons on the lace were not tied, so you have to make your own bows which is annoying. The stitching is straight, the lining is very light, feels like a type of rayon? I'll post close ups soon. The stitching is all straight and solid, and the waist ties are held on NY two buttons each, which gives it more stability.

Shipped an order 5/1 via SAL to USA, and it's been labeled as "waiting for airline space" since 6/8 and hasn't moved since. I'm using Bhiner as an agent and asked if they could look into it for me to see if it's lost or just waiting, and they said it could take two months for the shipping carrier to let them know. Anyone had any experiences with this and it taking so long? I know there's been a lot of shit going on in China, but I'm just worried it might be lost.

On the off chance anyone cares I received my milky ange jenny mini. It is so much more comfortable than the dress I have from lalamaid, and you can feel that the construction and quality of the fabric they use is better too. This one is also lined unlike lalamaids. It's unfortunate but it fits a little tight, I should've gone for the larger size, but it still fits well enough and isn't too uncomfortable.

I'm also having massive issues with shipping from China right now. 42agent has been trying to send out my package via SAL for about a month, but it's always returning from customs office with 17track saying it cannot be exported to the destination country. Before they sent it out again for the 3rd time, they mentioned air shipping capacities are exhausted which is why a bunch of parcels of them have been returning.
