Hello darlings <3
Today I will present to you the second review I´ve ever done of the taobao shopping service
And also I will show you my taobao haul, because I am so excited about all my new things and it´s been sooo long since I´ve posted about purchases (since I haven´t really ordered stuff for aaages) ^^
I will talk a bit about:
Communication
Price
Shipping
Over all rating
Communication 5/5
When I sendt the first email, it was around the end of may (25th), and it only took one day before they replied to me (I worked with Zeng)! After placing my order, they told me that they had to order everything and wait for it to arrive. I waited for about a couple of weeks without hearing back from them, before I decided to contact them myself. They appologized for the late reply, and told me they had got all my items allready. At the time I acctually found some new things that I wanted, and they said it was perfectly fine to add to the order. They always replied with a happy and friendly gesture like a smiley-face or a simple ask of how my day was going. Also, when I asked them to write a lower price on my package, they happily agreed to, as well as labeling it as a gift, saving me from big customs. So even though the total process of my order lasted all until now (10th of july) I will give them top grades because they treated me very kindly even when I messed up things and had to correct my order, or wanted to order something more after everything had arrived ^^
Price 4/5
When ordering from taobao, it doesn´t pay off to order small amounts of things. So if you are ordering something, make sure to make it quite a few things, because commission prices and shipping might be a bit high! I will not tell you what the price of my items where, but I can say that the service price by itself, with shipping and extra costs, went up to around 1000 HKD.
I was not too bothered by this, as I am used to shipping being quite high when ordering from China, but I just want to make you guys aware so you make sure to make your order worthwhile ^^
I will however say that the service they provide, their nice mannerism and over all cheaper offer than I get when I order from Japan, is definitely worth the price!
Shipping 4/5
The shipping from China itself was ok. It was sendt around the 20th of june, and as I said I got it today on the 10th of july! So it was about 20 days. My waiting time was prolonged because my package was held by the customs post-office in my country for quite a while before they sendt it on to me, charging me a small fee (thanks to the lowered price tag provided by taobaospree).
It is quite a long time to wait, and usually I get my orders between 1 1/2 to 2 weeks when I order from China, but I suspect the customs might have held my package for a while before contacting me about it also.
Over all rating 4/5
I can´t say anything about the products in conclusion with the shopping service, as they are not produced by taobaospree, but rather from several different individual taobao shops!
So I will just say that over all, this is the third time ordering something from taobao through taobaospree, and they have never dissapointed me. In fact, I think this was the best experience I have had with them so far, as I was treated with such patience and kindness all the time. I would reccomend everyone wanting to order from taobao to look at the offers taobaospree gives you!
Ordering is very simple, by filling out a ready-made excel file and sending it to them in an email.
So, what are you waiting for? Get shopping! ^^ I will definitely make use of their services again.
Now on to my haul!
I wanted to get some new things for the new season that is upon us: summer!
Looking through my closet realizing I owned 2 t-shirts kind of shocked me, haha xD

So shopping was the answer!
I divided my things in kind of "themed pictures" ^^
First of all, I put almost all the accessories into one picture!
Love, hate and angel steel-cut badges, icecream and fantasy cloud buttons, horror-gore and cherry buttons, SNK scout legion steel-cut badge, daisy necklace and two freebie rings! ^^
I felt like my order this time was almost themed around smileys, haha!
I was inspired by the super cute Ayumi Seto around the time when I ordered this...
Smiley face vest/shirt, socks, button-badge, ring and purse! ^0^
I also got my dream bag (finally) and a super cute cardigan!
School uniform pink cardigan and a super cute my melody bag (that is bigger than I expected!) <3
Oh, and the stuff I ordered after all the other things:
because I suddenly found this set and totally fell in love at once!
