There are many trustworthy sellers in the blogsphere and I have had good experiences with most of you.
But bear in mind that there are ones who are out to con your money too.
I loved this diamante embellished top I saw from this blogshop, and it was about RM60. A bit of a splurge for such a simple top but I'm guessing it was because of the quality of the 'diamante' embellishments. So without much ado, I place my order.
Seller: Your total will be RM80, please bank in to XXXXXXX.
Buyer: Wait, how much are the postage fees? The item is only RM60, and with Poslaju, shouldn't it be RM66?
S: Oh, well we charge more dear because we package the item on our own and we guarantee top notch delivery service.
*Don't every seller have to package the item on your own?*
B: Um okay, but RM20 for postage is too steep.
S: Okay since you're a first time customer I give you RM16 okay?
RM16 for postage was still a lot (I usually pay only RM6/RM7 for clothing) but like a fool, I paid the total of RM76.
She PROMISED top notch delivery & I expect the packaging to be something nicer than the norm for the price which I'm paying. She failed in all 3 aspects in my opinion.
1#: The parcel took nearly 3 days to arrive.
Top notch delivery would assure arrival to be no more than 2 days! I mean the regular RM6 delivery sometimes arrives in less than a day. She didn't even bother using any one-day express service for my parcel. Top notch my foot!
2#: The packaging was crap
For the RM16 she's charging me, I assume she must've spent RM6 for Poslaju, which leaves the balance of RM10 for a nice/decent looking packaging at least right? But no, her packaging is just some musty old brown-mahjong paper which smells bad, tears easily and feels scratchy. Where is my RM10's worth?! Blogshops who dont even charge me the extra at least gave me white envelope or decent plastic packaging. This is by far the worst kind of packaging ever.
3#: QC FAIL, badly
It's bad enough that Im paying for shite packaging & delivery service, i found out that I was also paying RM60 for bad quality material. The diamante embellishments were dropping out as soon I as I removed them from the package. It's like they were all glued on with cheap water glue, which I think is the case here. I bet after one wash, this top will go from embellished to plain jane.
In a rage, I emailed the cheating seller.
B: Hello! I would like to complain about the fact that the delivery took 3 days (top notch quality my foot), the packaging I paid so much for is the worst thing ever, and that your cheap embellishments are what they are, CHEAP. So not worth what I paid for. I would like a refund, and I'll send it back to you, postage I will bear.
S: Sorry dear, no refunds are allowed after transaction has been completed. That's our policy. As for the delivery, sometimes Poslaju has shipment problems so it's not our fault. The packaging is nicely wrapped to make sure your item is not damaged and that's all, plus the top is in good condition when we sent it out to you, we cannot guarantee you for each diamante which falls off.
B: If it's Poslaju that's delivering, tell me again why Im paying you an extra RM10 for delivery charges? And with that kind of 20 cent packaging, do you think Im getting my money's worth? Cos I dont see any quality within it. Especially your clothing which is terrible in quality, something which I bet you should've known but said nothing about. I want a refund!
S: Helo, we did give you the fastest delivery by sending it early as we can. 3 days is considered quite fast already. Our packaging paper is imported and is expensive, no other blogshop uses it right? As for the clothes, we don't make it and it was fine in our hands before we sent it off. Sorry, no refunds will be given.
B: The fastest Poslaju deliveries all come within 2 days or less and they are charging me only RM6. As for your 'expensive' 'imported' paper, I didnt want it anyways because I think you're lying and it's just some cheap mahjong paper. A white A4 envelope would've made me happier. I still dont think you are truthful enough about the condition of the clothes.
It's fine if you dont want to refund me but bear in mind I will never return to shop with you again and Im going to warn all my shopaholic friends about your con!
S: Dear, we're not conning you. It's just business, dont take it so personally. Have a good day, bye.
B: It's nothing personal, it's just that you simply have BAD DISGUSTING business ethics.
Gosh Im so furious! How can you even do business like that, and accusing me of taking things personally.
I dont even know you!

ReplyDeletemabel_rehash(at)live.com
OMG, this seller really embarrassing we good seller here. RM16 i think is included her petrol/tol/waiting in post office fees. Her so-called 'imported packing' don't even cost RM0.10.And buyer has the right to choose which kind of packing too, since it is so expensive! Dear buyer, just donate to her la... Hope she can 'make more wealth' by ripping off the buyer R16 postage plus the super bad quality clothing.

Eevry blame the seller, but why not the buyer? Buyer knew that it was too expensive to pay RM16 for postage, but she/he still paid! Stupid right? You know you got con, but you still want to commit to it?! You are the one who were willing to pay... So don't said you are con!!

shin_chew107@hotmail.com
To the anon above (4.21pm). At least she brought the matter up .It can be as a warning to other people. Who knows how many buyer were asked to pay RM20 for postage but just thought nothing of it/ brushed it off and said never mind while the seller is the one who walks away happy with all that 'extra' money.
ReplyDeleteProps to the buyer for putting this up.
omg! pls email me the link. i'll definitely boycott this kind of seller.
