I got cheated by my “friend” and ex-partner. We managed a blog selling perfumes and all this drama started from there. She handles the email, orders and postage. I deal with the supplier. But the thing is, customers are to make payments to my bank account since then it’ll be easier for me to directly transfer the money to the supplier.<br />
<br />
I thought everything was going well until my cousin found a blog where my name is posted, <i><span style="color: red;">apparently I’m a “penyangak”</span></i>. It seems that she ordered perfumes and she never received the items. Of course I was shocked, since all this while, I checked the email for the perfume blog, there wasn’t a single email from anyone saying they haven’t received anything. I guess she must have deleted them before I had the chance to see them.<br />
<br />
So anyway, I confronted her and after a hell of a fight, she admitted that she actually did take a few perfumes from 5 different orders. But get this, some of them she just didn’t post it out because she was too lazy to go to the post office. Ugh, I could just slap her there. If she was so lazy, I can send it out myself!<br />
<br />
I found tons of vials on her table, but most of them untouched, just left there, all nicely wrapped. It is really weird, she doesn’t really want it since it’s unopened and unused, but I think she’s plain lazy. It’s not like she cheats customers of their money, since everything is ordered after customers pay, but she just don’t send it out. I already retrieved the vials and a few miniatures, and now I’m on the course to sending it out to the respective owners.<br />
<br />
The thing I’m really really angry about this is the fact that it is MY name that is tarnished. Since customers are to pay to my account, of course they would think it’s me cheating them, not this selfish lazy bitch. I’m so tempted to reveal her name here, because her action got my name posted out on people’s blog. <br />
<br />
<b><i><span style="color: red;">Editor's note :</span></i></b> To those who may have bought some perfume lately and have yet to receive them, please do refer back to the blogshop. I will get the blog owner to put up an announcement.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-78963089053008254952010-09-07T16:40:00.000+08:002010-09-07T16:40:19.953+08:00Some people just dont get inquiries...Dear SMWDY, Its kinda' routine for me to do monthly update with my closets cuz like any other girls out there, I just love shopping but due to hot weather nowadays, I prefer to do it online. And so, few weeks ago I met dis one online blogshop, selling hot dresses which offer lower price compare to other blogshops.<br />
<br />
Well, I did bought from her before and as the transaction before ran smoothly and the parcel arrived perfectly on time, there is no where in my mind that dis blogshop gonna trick me. :( like any other buyers, I did leave comment on one of the picture (*just leave your comment and i'll get back to you a.s.a.p* method), as far as i got my self fall in love with the lovely design of one of her dress, Im asking her to give me measurement details of that particular dress. and later she replie! d my comment, together with complete measurement that i asked for.<br />
<br />
Well, unfortunate me, the dress only suitable for S size and from the measurement dat she gave me, I perfectly know that dress wont fit my body nicely. So, I ended up my comment saying that the dress is nice but sure as hell wont fit my body. No reply from the blog's owner and I guess our transaction just now comes to an end already.<br />
<br />
Last week, I was so surprised to received Poslaju parcel and surprise to the max when I opened the parcel and guess what, the lovely dress that I've found from the blogshop a week before were in it. I was like, ehh, since when plak I confirmed to buy dis dress with the blogshop owner? The dress wasn't my size and our last conversation clearly told her dat i am not gonna buy the dress. Plus, I dont even pay or transfer any payment for dat dress. And so, with confusion filled my head, I browse her blogshop just to get her phone number. as I try to call her, the lines is surely not busy at all but she didnt pick up. So I try to text her, hoping that she read and reply my message. <br />
<br />
I've wait about 2-3 hours for her replied. and her replied really shocked me to death. Below was conversation between me and the blogshop owner.<br />
<br />
Her :Oh Sori Miss H (me) i dont pick up ur phone call, ive been busy handling new stocks. Well, the parcel u receive is what u had ordered from me last week. <b><i><span style="color: red;">You did leave comment on one of my dress and I consider that as confirmed order</span></i></b> as u asking for measurement details. So, please bank in the payment of RM50 to my account, xxx xxx xxx within 3 days. Do inform me when you already make the payment. Tq <br />
<br />
Me : But I never confirmed with you to buy that dress. Of course Im interested with dat dress at first place, but after knowing the measurement details, Im perfectly sure the size wont fit my body. and I clearly state dat in my last comment on the picture. <br />
<br />
Her : Dont you read the T&C? Only for serious buyer. and I consider you as serious buyer the moment you ask for measurement details. so dear, just bank in the payment okay? as the dress is already with you. and mind you, item sold are not returnable or refundable. tq<br />
<br />
And that was her last replied. ever since that, I was unable to contact her phone number. I guess she already change it. <br />
<br />
Up until now I dont know whether I should just pay for the dress eventhough I know it wont fit me at all!. But keeping the dress with me at the same time makes me feel guilty towards the blogshop owner. sedangkan I never confirmed to buy that dress. Am I the one who did mistakes here just because im asking for measurement details?? :( SMWDY, plz help me!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com27tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-22801692046469955282010-09-04T01:56:00.005+08:002010-09-04T12:16:38.719+08:00Grrr... You stepped on my tailOver the last few days, heaps of comments came in for the post "It's my Mommy's birthday copycat" and while I usually approve all comments in the past, this was one instance where i rejected heaps too. It's sad to say, a lot of the comments came from people who barely understood the meaning of plagiarism and some were even supporting the acts of plagiarism.<br />
<br />
I do not condone such acts. <br />
<br />
For those who wrote in not knowing what plagiarism means, please read here : <a href="http://www.google.com.my/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&hs=1fC&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&defl=en&q=define:plagiarism&sa=X&ei=zvyATPzXNIeSuwPc29TCBA&ved=0CBQQkAE">DEFINITIONS OF PLAGIARISM</a><br />
<br />
I am in no means trying to insult anyone's vocabulary here but unfortunately, I was insulted by all the comments I received. Nevermind the ones who lost the plot entirely but there were readers who thinks plagiarism is right, some said it was cool and smart to steal some one else's work. One even said, to steal other people's work is not lazy, it is the key to success. And more of such immature comments are still piling in!<br />
<br />
I am beyond appalled. For once in these 7 months of running SMWDY, I screamed "WHAT THE *bleep* ARE THESE PEOPLE TALKING ABOUT?!" My blood boiled.<br />
<br />
To those out there who has yet to see your comments being approved and published, it is highly likely I am talking about you. Yes, those comments have been rejected. I will not allow your comments promoting plagiarism to be immortalized in my website.<br />
<br />
But with that said, some earlier comments were approved unfortunately. I wont take those down though. Those will serve as <i>the</i> reason for this post I am writing.<br />
<br />
While this blog was started to poke fun at oddities of the online shopping community, it has evolved to helping and hopefully educating this community to grow. Hence the banner changed from "the place to bitch slap without them knowing it" to "weeding out the bad as gently as we can". Your not so witty comments about plagiarism are "a 2 steps back to caveman land".<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes, I strongly believe in anonymity but I do make exceptions. Look top right corner. It has not been an 'unethical' thing for me to reveal the culprit's name in the past and it is still not now.<br />
<br />
<blockquote>Dear Anis,<br />
I know you have been leaving comments anonymously. If you want to defend yourself in this matter or feel you have been wrongly accused, it is strongly advisable that you write to me directly. </blockquote><br />
I do not take this as a monetary fraud incident. I do not care who is making what sort of profit. It is how the context of the author's website being copied word for word by the buyer and used without consent that frustrates. I take this as an intellectual robbery. Plagiarism. How many times do I have to repeat that word? In my books, plagiarism is a punishable crime.<br />
<br />
And the author was fooled into believing her act of goodwill was all for a filial daughter wanting to buy a present for her mom. An abusive act of manipulation. What is wrong with being transparent of your true intentions?<br />
<br />
I sincerely hope everyone can now understand the situation... at least from my point of view. BUT dear Author, do correct me if I'm wrong! <br />
<br />
~~~~~~~<br />
<br />
Is this post offensive to you? Have I gone overly stiffy? I just thought if everyone could have a say in the last 7 months, this is where my 2 cents shall be deposited. To that person who commented "Plagiarism is the key to success", congratulations!!! You have successfully won SMWDY's most coveted title "<i><span style="color: red;">THE SCUM THEY SCRAPE OFF SCUM</span></i>" <br />

I asked her how much should I be paying.<br />
And she told me the total amount (item + postal fees)<br />
<br />
I showed my friend what I was going to buy and she told me there was a <b><i><span style="color: red;">free postage promotion</span></i></b> going on.<br />

I went and checked out the blogshop again.<br />
and yup I found it.<br />
there is this quite-hard-to-find post clearly stating free postage. (for any items)<br />

I have no problems with buyers becoming resellers but when lies and deceits are involved, I just give them what they deserve. Be honest with your intentions and as my daddy would always say "DONT INVOLVE YOUR MOTHER!"<br />
<br />
So here goes... *the story has checked out*<br />
<br />
<div style="color: red; text-align: center;"><b>~~~~~~~~</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: left;">Dear Slap Me Why Don't You,<br />
<br />
I need a real BIG favour to expose the deceit of this particular blogger whom I believe has be conning her clients and other online blogshop owners for that matter. I am confident that I am not the only victim. Hold on to your seat and here goes. Warning..it is an EPIC!<br />
<br />
I was first contacted by this lady on 5th July 2010 as shown in the following email,<br />
<br />
"hai..<br />
wana ask bout the items listed below<br />
<br />
i wana know the bestest price u can offer for these items<br />
<br />
1) AUTHENTIC GUCCI all the way brought to you directly from MILAN<br />
2) AUTHENTIC BALLY all the way brought to you directly from SWITZERLAND<br />
<br />
thnx"<br />
<br />
As always, I responded to the inquiries as I normally do and gave her my quotation. Here was answer,<br />
<br />
"Here are the bestest price that I could offer you.<br />
1. Gucci Tote is at RM1580 inclusive of Poslaju / COD<br />
<br />
2. Bally Bucket is at RM800 inclusive of Poslaju / COD"<br />
<br />
She replied by asking for BOTH bags to be released to her at RM2k. I should have suspected something amiss here but then, I am after all born and taught by a lovely mother to being respectful of others, hence, I politely told her that I could not meet her price and even apologise for it. <br />
<br />
Then she inquired GUCCI tote and BURBERRY Heart Tote and without reservation I quoted her the price and as expected she haggled for a lower price because her excuse was,<br />
<br />
"sorry for asking u alot.<br />
as i am not working, still studying...<br />
only hubby working =)<br />
i have really tite budget.<br />
so, purchasing 1k handbag requires time for me<br />
<br />
thnx again"<br />
<br />
Then she at last settled for TOD's, which I successfully delivered it. Least to say, it was a difficult process too. She said she was studying at IIUM Gombak and commute only on Mondays and Wednesdays from her house in Sepang to Gombak for classes and insisted me for a COD at the Curve during her lunch break. It is made clear in my website that COD is only done on weekends at the Curve or 1Utama, so I has no choice but to use Poslaju instead. Again, she was very persistent asking me to dispatch the time during a scheduled time so that she would receive the item on time. I complied because rule #1 in business, customers are always right. <br />
<br />
She was happy with my service and immediately made another purchase, in this case it was a BALLY Bucket and repeatedly she was in a hurry to get the bag, which was dispatched yesterday 30th August 2010, in order for it to arrive on tomorrow, Wednesday 1st September 2010 after the Merdeka Day holiday, as the BALLY according to her was a birthday gift to her mother.<br />
<br />
This is where and when the plot thickens. When I got back home yesterday, 30th August 2010 after posting the BALLY Bucket via Poslaju, I went back to checking my emails and started my daily ritual Google activities. Call it destiny, sixth sense, or what ever it was, I bumped into some images of products which uncannily looked like mine. These images brought me to a Malaysian online blogshop by the name of shoPPe LISTa. <br />
<br />
I am almost always a calm and collected person who always rationalise with things positively but what I have stumbled with my discovery unleashed my anger. I approached this owner of shoPPe LISTa with a stern warning to delete all postings which was plagiarised from my website. I did not even care for credits. They were:<br />
<br />
1. GUCCI Hobo </div><div style="text-align: left;">2. BURBERRY Heart Tote </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
I reckon because I told her that I would report her blog to the Suruhanjaya Syarikat Malaysia (Companies Commission of Malaysia) for doing illegal online trading and also to other blog Reviewers of her actions, she immediately took the two postings out and answered my email,<br />
<br />
<blockquote><i><span style="color: red;">"hai..</span><br style="color: red;" /><span style="color: red;">oh, sorry..</span><br style="color: red;" /><span style="color: red;">will surely change"</span></i></blockquote><br />
Don't take me wrong, I am not at all a revengeful person but the manner of her reply was such a mockery to my intelligence that I am obligated to do something. With the influence of CSI, NCIS, BONES, WHITE COLLAR and alike, I began with my investigation. I immediately wrote to them pretending that I was interested on something and this was the reply,</div><blockquote>"hi dear,<br />
one last piece left (in black)<br />
two already been reserved<br />
<br />
maybank <br />
XXXXXXXXXX<br />
nik anis bt nik mohd zainuddin<br />
<br />
kindly inform me once u've made ur payment. <br />
if payment made today,<br />
i'll send ur package tmrrow<br />
<br />
thx" </blockquote><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
GUESS what!? It is none other that the TOD's and BALLY Bucket buyer! </div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
No wonder she insisted on me taking out the postings of items she has bought, to eliminate competition. Customarily, all postings of sold out items will be taken out from my website but pending to this case, I have decided to activate them all back again but this time at the discounted prices, which I offered to Nik Anis bt Nik Mohd Zainuddin. Original posted prices of the purchased items by Anis are as follows:</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br />
1. TOD's - RM1750 reduced to RM1550 for her<br />
2. BALLY Bucket - RM900 reduced to RM800 for her<br />
<br />
I only managed to get a glimpse of BALLY Bucket being sold to some Kakak but it was taken out at the same time of the GUCCI Hobo and BURBERRY Heart Tote, even without me instructing so. I wish I know the BALLY Bucket buyer, so I could tell her that she has been conned. I bet you the price would be an increase by RM300 or even more because the retail price of BALLY Bucket is about RM2.8k. The insane amount of profit she would be making and the audacity of her to say it was for her mom's birthday to get the bargain price from me. How low can a person be to use MOM as a business strategy shamelessly?No wonder she insisted on the urgency of getting this particular because she has secured her deal with this Kakak on the other end. I have no idea what fate belies the TOD's because I don't seem to see it under the list of bags on shoPPe LISTa. <br />
<br />
ALL the following postings that she has currently on shoPPe LISTa marked as Sold Out/Sold were once asked by her but because I have sold these items myself, she indicated them as Sold Out/Sold too. I didn't highlight to her that these images were mine too, thus, they still exist as part of her old postings.<br />
<br />

3. http://shoppelista.blogspot.com/2010/04/xoxo-adina-oversized-hobo-handba.html<br />
<br />
Should we recall the crime that she has committed by far since 5th July 2010:<br />
1. Haggled for ridiculous prices with a pre-meditated intentions.<br />
2. Using that sympathy vote, i.e. "it's my mom's birthday" to get that cheaper price.<br />
3. Plagiarised photos and descriptions from my website and using shoPPe LISTa as a bait, not to mention offering marked up prices.<br />
4. She still made a profit of between RM100 - RM350 or more, even after buying from me because we are an honest online business based on trust and offers reasonable prices below current Malaysian RRP. One would still make profit buying from me and then selling them off again. I know it is the prerogative of my buyers to do whatever they want with their purchased items but it is also my right to highlight to customers of such dishonesty.<br />
6. The manner of Anis' apology. Non sincere, non committal and nonchalant.<br />
7. If you could think of more, please add...pleasseeee.<br />

<br />
I came across a buyer a few days ago.<br />
She mailed me saying she needed to collect the bag asap as it's a present for someone.<br />
I replied her 1 day later saying she can collect it by Monday as soon as she pays me.<br />
She didn't reply until next week(1-2 days before the collection date) saying it's too late, she'll cancel it.<br />
My t&c stated "No last minute back outs or else blacklisted".<br />

Argh. It's driving me nuts :oUnknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-87996168093901126962010-08-25T23:57:00.000+08:002010-08-25T23:57:27.189+08:00Madame BlahzeyQuite long ago I ordered a whole set of storybooks from this blogshop in Singapore. I live in Singapore too, by the way. Since she was offering a discount with more books purchased, I decided to get the whole set in the series. Problem was, she only offered meetup for both payment and collection. No postage, no internet banking. AND she insisted on a location to her convenience!<br />
<br />
Since I was really obsessed with that writer then, I decided "Why not? Singapore isn't THAT big". Turns out, her meetup location was on the other end of the island!! On that day itself, I spent 2hours on the public transport going to a place of her convenience.<br />
<br />
I did contact her to let her know I was on my way when I left my home and when I was on the way and when I was reaching and she did reply. However, when I finally reached the destination and tried contacting her - thru SMS and phone calls - she did not respond! Waited for her for about an hour and decided to leave after that, since she was totally uncontactable. Worse was, the place we were supposed to meet at was boring and unfamiliar to me!<br />
<br />
When I got home, I talked to her on MSN and asked why didn't she turn up and she actually told me "<b><i><span style="color: red;">my phone spoil, so i didnt turn up</span></i></b>".<br />
<br />
!!!!!!!!!!!!<br />
<br />
I traveled 2 hours to HER convenience and she just decided not turn up because of a spoilt phone when the place was probably only 5 minutes from her home?<br />
<br />
Oh, there wasn't a sorry or an offer to meet again at a location convenient to mine or anything. She actually told me we can meet again on another day to HER convenience. Totally ignored her after that. The same thing might happen again.<br />
<br />
Also, I told my friends about her blogshop - since it was quite famous - cause we all lived near each other. By the way, the entire set of books I intended to buy from her costs about SGD$150 if I didn't remember wrongly. Lucky payment was not required beforehand! Too bad she lost me as a customer! And also maybe a few of my friends....Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-15657434359382940802010-08-25T23:54:00.000+08:002010-08-25T23:54:43.916+08:00Unnecessary punishment!As you can see, I'm a buyer. Not a very happy one too -.-<br />
I'm a first time blogshopper and I found interest in this bag from http://xxxxxxx.blogspot.com<br />
<br />
I find the blog-owner, rather rude. When I first emailed her, she replied me quite rudely. After talking for awhile, I said I might buy the bag from her. Then only she started having a better attitude. <br />
I decided to buy those bags for my sister. So, I asked my aunty to help me.<br />
<br />
When, my aunty called her, she was told that she does not take orders through telephone. Being told so, my aunty emailed her the order form. My aunty also told her that she needed it by Thursday so that she could post it to me.<br />
<br />
She told my aunty she could only get the bags on Saturday, so my aunty told her to call it off. She then blacklisted my aunty just for that! <i style="color: red;">She even put my aunty's number on her blog!!</i> Aren't phone numbers P&C?!<br />
<br />
We should all BOY-COTT this blog. Thank you.<br />

Now the question is, HOW DO I STOP? ):<<br />
<br />
I have tried thinking of ways to stop such as;<br />
a) Throwing away measuring tape<br />
Comeback: I need the measuring tape to measure stuff.<br />
<br />
b) Throwing away my modem<br />
Comeback: Need to check mail and facebook! X:<<br />
<br />
c) Don't open blogspot!<br />
Comeback: I NEED TO DO SMTH WHEN I'M BORED.<br />
<br />
Besides, I only buy preloved stuff (student buyer. ;P). ): But I buy a whole lot at one go!<br />
<br />
And just before writing this, I saw cheap RM20 ballet flats worn a few times, RM5 clothes, cute accessories!<br />
<br />
FML.<br />

Yesterday, I suppose to meet the seller at OU. When I was there, i texted the seller to ler her know that I already arrived.<br />
<br />
She replied me and told me that her bf will pass the stuff for her. And her bf will reach there in another 10 mins. <br />
<br />
Then I said okay. I told her that I'm wearing blue dress with black handbag. So it is easier for her bf to find me.<br />
<br />
She replied me back, ' My bf is wearing <b><i><span style="color: red;">TOPMAN Tshirt in black</span></i></b>'.<br />
<br />
Ouh ok, should i tell my dress' brand as well? LOL!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-207540358009233362010-08-09T21:34:00.000+08:002010-08-09T21:34:00.336+08:00Backouts of the XY ChromosomesAm wondering if am i the only one who encounters this weird guy.<br />
<br />
He places orders quite frequently everytime i have new arrivals, claiming that he wanna buy it for his girlfriend, and will ask questions regarding color / material of the items he ordered. <br />
<br />
But he'll disappear after i provide him all the info to his questions and payment details. then he'll be back again placing orders and asking questions when i have new updates.<br />
<br />
And his starting line is always ... "hi there, i am interested in buying this, this and this for my girlfriend ^_^"<br />
<br />
I googled his email, and he's actually a real guy. (not some made up email or watsoever) cus i found his pages and blogs and stuff.<br />
<br />
Have any of you sellers encountered him? Is he like some <b><i><span style="color: red;">serial back-out "boyfriend"</span></i></b> that just likes to browse around girly blogshops and place orders and disappears?<br />
<br />
Gees....Unknownnoreply@blogger.com15tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-21316285055044267682010-08-09T21:31:00.001+08:002010-08-09T22:03:02.409+08:00Creepy Blogshop Connoisseur?If anyone has ever COD-ed with the seller of this certain blogshop, you'd agree with me that she's quite a nutty person. I wouldnt call her a psycho, she's a nice and friendly girl, but quirky and somewhat weird.<br />
<br />
I happen to buy a lot from her and hence we had a lot of dealings via COD. To top it off, she stays just 5 minutes away from me.<br />
<br />
One day, she asked if I could meet at her place for COD instead of the Shell station we usually meet at because her car was not around. So I thought, why not, it's just 5 minutes away.<br />
<br />
When I got to her place, she told me to 'come in'. It was a nice gesture, but unnecessary, really. But I complied anyways because she seems nice despite her quirky ways.<br />
<br />
I went in and she showed me around (ive no idea why) and showed me all her new clothing stocks which were not posted onto her blog yet. She asked if I would like to purchase some on the spot, I am even allowed to try on. Obviously I was glad, like wow, I have the privileges of trying and buying firsthand. I picked out a few additional pieces which I liked, and paid her. (I even got super discounts)<br />
<br />
Then she showed me a scrapbook of hers.<br />
A burn book to be exact (remember Mean Girls, the movie?) Except that its not pink and have photos of people in it.<br />
It's a whole collection of blogshops' printed logos and some of their photos in it.<br />
At first I thought it was some sort of fashion lookbook but then, I saw some nasty things scribbled below some of them. For example:<br />
<br />
Blogshop X<br />
[photos] [photos]<br />
- <i><span style="color: red;">lousy photos</span></i> with bad lighting<br />
- <i><span style="color: red;">ugly</span></i> shoe collection<br />
- quite a few hot sellers<br />
- shouldn't show face, <i><span style="color: red;">not pretty</span></i> at all<br />
<br />
Those were some of the things I happened to read, but they were all about different blogshops. That book was like over 200 pages thick, more or less about Twilight's Eclipse thickness.<br />
If you're a seller, you're definitely in there, I promise you. It was like a whole blogshop directory, printed and pasted in one book.<br />
<br />
She just flipped through the book as she showed me, telling me that this blogshop needs to improve her services and this needs that and so on. I just made an excuse saying I was late for something and dashed.<br />
<br />
That was weird. I mean it's okay to keep tabs on your competitors, but not like a whole burn book about each and every one of them! That's crazy!<br />
<br />
Although I'll still shop with her, Im never ever doing COD with her at her house again, no matter what privileges I get. :sUnknownnoreply@blogger.com19tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-23278841604918229792010-08-09T00:36:00.000+08:002010-08-09T00:36:33.198+08:00Bicycle BeltsFor the last time, it is CINCHER! CINCHER CINCHER CINCHER! I get so sick and tired of blog shops labeling their cinchers as clinchers! <br />
<br />
A simple search on google would tell you that a clincher is: <br />
<br />
clinch·er Noun /ˈklinCHər/<br />
1. A fact, argument, or event that settles a matter conclusively<br />
<br />
2. A bicycle or automobile tire that has flange beads that fit into the wheel rim<br />
<br />
Not only do you not know what you're selling, you're misleading the rest of the online community with your so-called clincher. The last time I checked, <i><b><span style="color: red;">people don't wear bicycle tires around their waists. </span></b></i><br />
<br />
Sometimes I really wonder who on earth started the whole clincher madness and why no one bothered to google before they post.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com13tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-59732902196329490182010-08-06T22:18:00.000+08:002010-08-06T22:18:30.560+08:00Oh the DRAMA!I don't know if I should post this story up but I think I should because I will not be revealing anyone and any assumptions can be made but I will not verify anything just to allow the people involved to stay anonymous here. This story was told to me by one of the blogshop owners mentioned below.<br />
<br />
So, as some of you may know, Blogshop A and Blogshop B have quite recently (this year) joint forces to run Blogshop C. They weren't friends to begin with, but they made friends when their stall happens to be next to one another in a bazaar. They met again at a 2nd bazaar and later on decided to join forces to create Blogshop C. Mostly I think because they could benefit from one another as A had good connections with suppliers with hot-selling, hard to find items and B has popularity. Which would make Blogshop C a definite success when you have everything combined into one.<br />
<br />
Sounds like a business-dream-come-true right?<br />
<br />
Seeing as A has the connections, she will handle the money and shipping. As for B, she will handle the emails and CODs.<br />
Little did B know that A's family had financial issues and have been leaning slightly on her blogshop's profits previously. And with Blogshop C now, they begin to lean more on A for financial support. A, obviously did not tell B. She would take a little from Blogshop C without B knowing and would replace it when she has the cash. Sometimes she would even 'swallow' some of the extra cash from shipping.<br />
<br />
On B's side, she had been going out with a guy (we'll call him Z) who, coincidentally is someone whom A really likes, and goes to the same classes as her. B is from a different college and so she does not know how much A likes Z, because at the end of the day, Z likes B more than A.<br />
<br />
Everything has been going on for about 3 months without either party knowing cos like I said, they were not exactly friends, just business friends. So it's not like they have a same group of friends whatsoever.<br />
<br />
Until one day at Blogshop C's first ever bazaar, A & B decided to open 3 booths. One for Blogshops A, B, and C. So that's two people running three blogshop booths. <b><i><span style="color: red;">Talk about madness.</span></i></b><br />
<br />
So, B decided to get Z to come help them. I was also there to help out. When Z arrived, A got a shock. Even more shocked to find B going out with him. A misunderstanding followed which led to A thinking that B started Blogshop C just to get to Z through A, when in fact, B knew Z way before meeting A. Complicated stuff. I didnt know much about B cos I am A's friend, and I knew how much she liked Z. So I talked to B about it and B got mad and started accusing me for trying to help A steal Z from her. (she apparently has some issues when it comes to boyfriend stealing, cos she totally overreacted)<br />
<br />
B started screaming at A, and they started accusing one another of this and that, some things that were not even related to blogshops. Seemed like a business deal gone sour. Thank goodness the stall was somewhere at the side of the building, away from public attention and other blogshop booths, that would've been embarassing.<br />
<br />
During their screaming matches, A started going like in-your-face, I stole about 50% of our profits and you didnt even notice. And B got mad and started asking for her money back and giving low blows that she has done this and that with Z.<br />
<br />
It was all very highschool. I had to drag A away and Z had to drag B away. We closed up the bazaar booths and thet was the very sad and abrupt end of Blogshop C. The closing down post on the blogshop made it sound like they were busy on hiatus when in actual fact, they have split everything and are never talking again.<br />
<br />
I don't know whether to laugh or to cry at their situation.<br />
Eventhough you may not know which blogshop A B or C is, at least you know that shit like that, it happens. :sUnknownnoreply@blogger.com12tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-2932785149445365722010-08-06T18:46:00.000+08:002010-08-06T18:46:46.067+08:00RipBook<br>Am I the only one sick of blogshops stealing pictures from <b><span style="color: red;">Lookbook</span></b> ?Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-16516469531786305392010-08-06T17:53:00.000+08:002010-08-06T17:53:25.813+08:00Dragging in the worldI'm a buyer but you know what i find MOST UNETHICAL?<br />

Complain about her! its totally fine.<br />
Spam her cbox complaim about her to reviewers, heck write it on their cboxs and let ppl know about how much she sucks.<br />
<br />
But cmon, cut her some slack and leave out the part about her relationships,her parents,her work?!<br />

<br />
There was one time this facebook shop was selling original crocs accesories (jibbitz i think they're called ?) for RM3.50, got free 1 some more if buy 3..so quite cheap right ? Then this one girl commented, complained that it was expensive and that she can buy at the roadside for RM1, so the buyer said that those are fake, the ones she's selling is original.<br />
<br />
The girl then said that it's all the same, so this other person commented and said that the original lasted longer and had better quality.<br />
<br />
The complainer said, no, all the same. So this other girl said "Then buy la the RM1 one and you know what the complainer says ? "<i><b><span style="color: red;">Takpelah</span></b></i>". She doesn't even want that thing and yet she's complaining about it!

Hmmm, 'correction'? Blur, what does she mean by 'correction'? read on, copied exact word for word -<br />

“Hi I am selling my 100% Authentic Chanel flap lambskin vintage correction medium size with gold hardware, only comes with dust bag.

Too good to be true,it costs only RM35..<br />
The seller claimed that it is brand new..<br />
I trusted her and bought the bracelet..<br />
Gosh..upon receiving.there are obvious scratches all over and the bracelet kinda rust and oxidised.<br />
How can the seller claimed that is brand new?!<br />
I msg her explaining the prob and requested for a full refund yet she was being very rude replying me that the colour is actually like that etc...And its brand new..<br />
Come'on..do u think I'm blind/a kid to see that the bracelet is used?<br />
The seller was also being very rude in her msg..saying that she will not refund and its up to me to fail a complain to all reviewers..<br />
I will definitely blacklist this blogshop for the rest of my life..<br />
This is a rotten seller..dishonesty in selling her items.<br />
Those who wants her blogshop name..kindly email me:<br />

<br />
<br />
1. When the cod spots are right at the top of my page and i get emsails saying "cod where?"<br />
(right in the middle and the first thing you see on my site.i thought that it might be because they couldnt see it on the sidebar so i moved it right below the header, guess that isnt the case)<br />
<br />
2. when they say i wanna COD in ************ when i've stated on the site ( the one below my header) that i do not do cods there.<br />
<br />
3. when the items that are sold out are marked SOLD OUT(bold and capitalized) and they order it and even say "discount can?"<br />
<br />
4. when i get an sms about a cod and i tell them that i am not free on that day and they ask me what my entire days schedule is like.calling and emailing me throughout the day.<br />
(ACTUAL CONVO)<br />
<br />
b: hi girl can we make the cod today instead of tomorrow?<br />
s : sorry dear, im busy today. :( so i'll just meet you tomorow wil you still be free?<br />
b : what time you free today?<br />
s: sorry, but im not in kl at the moment wil be leaving later tonight so will still be able to see you tomorrow :)<br />
b: ok what time you come back tonight?<br />
s: sorry but im in seremban now and will only be back pretty late<br />
b: ok what time?<br />
s: maybe 1am?<br />
b: cannot earlier?<br />
s : no sorry but im here for a function. *exhales<br />
b : ok see you tomorrow<br />
<br />
- so redundant when she could meet me the next day -<br />
<br />
5. sometimes people have different names on their emails than their real names.and they send in an 2 emails (maybe theyre too excited) ordering something with their email ad.and another order form with a different name??this one is rather confusing esp when a few people order the same items.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-37382681846564085032010-07-27T13:11:00.002+08:002010-07-27T13:11:59.515+08:00Oh wise ones needed #9This is more of a question really, because I can't seem to find the answers by Googling it. Heheh. <br />
<br />
If a seller says that the items are not of pre-order nature, does it automatically mean that the items are ready stock? I thought it does, so please correct me if I am wrong because I'd really like to know so I can avoid the items which are "not pre-order but not ready stock either" in the future. <br />
<br />
My case is that I don't usually buy the items if I know they have to be pre-ordered. So I have asked the seller first and she said "No, it is not a pre-order". So then I continued to purchase the items which was on Thursday last week. Since I thought they were ready stock, I estimated I should be receiving the items within this week. But then again, that was under the impression that the stocks were on hand.<br />
<br />
So I did give her a message on Monday, asking whether she has posted out my items. She replied that I should be receiving them within NEXT week. When I mentioned that I thought it was quite longer than I expected, she replied that it was because the items are not ready stock. Hence my question earlier.<br />
<br />
Can anyone help me? :DUnknownnoreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-14515941065145625232010-07-25T22:29:00.000+08:002010-07-25T22:29:26.541+08:00More WoofsSo if there's one thing I really can't stand, is INSENSITIVITY. I'm sorry, but I do not appreciate seeing your dogs pictured amongst your stock. I really don't. And I'm pretty sure this is not the first time, <b><span style="color: red;">the infamous seller has done it again..</span></b><br />
<br />
There's also a famous shop in Bangsar that lets her dog run amok in her shop going through all the maxi dresses that happens to be touching the grounds. Umm, hello? It's not nice okay sellers. Even if it were a cat, I still would not appreciate it, let alone bigger animals like dogs.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com27tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203144043042496603.post-51267326327349366042010-07-24T01:52:00.000+08:002010-07-24T01:52:34.644+08:00Updates #9 ~ Who are you to tell me a bout effiency? - AUTHORI'm not going to explain any further as this is just blown way out of proportion, and honestly, is a waste of time.<br />
The reason why i posted the story, was cos of ranting.<br />
I wanted to share the story to others who were interested in knowing the seller and this is what happens.<br />
<br />
Gosh.<br />
Girls, some times, when it's got nothing to do with you, please stay out of it la.<br />
It was a rant, and now see what happened.<br />
So, whatever it is, im going to reply know.<br />
This is the last mail im sending in response to this.<br />
<br />
I'll let the pics do the talking.<br />
I'm done explaining/clarifying/arguing.<br />
And the ebay one.<br />
I mailed her and waited for a long long time.<br />
It took her a few days, and i researched and found better sources.<br />
What would you do?<br />
If she replied me earlier, whether or not, it went to spam mail or wtv, i wouldn't even consider buying from other ppl.<br />
When you found somewhere cheaper, what would YOU do?<br />
Answer that question honestly.<br />
<br />
Also, seller wrote this.<br />
Buyer thinks that I want to save on the FOC Registered Post which was offered to her for Nail Polish + ‘Blush’. Both items arrive on the same day and to be shipped to the same address hence to be sent out in 1 package. If that is not called efficient, then what is?<br />
<br />
Firstly, it was suppose to reach due with my lipsticks which arrived a long time ago. <br />
Your supplier messed up, i thought of giving you a chance.<br />
I waited patiently and i even said i dont need a tracking number cos i trusted her enough.<br />
Then, okay cool. waiting, waiting.<br />
Another mail shows up, telling me that it might not have been in the latest package.<br />
How do you expect me to feel?<br />
The next mail, suddenly saying, it's going to arrive with the nail polish, which i ordered much later.<br />
I've no complains bout the nail polish's delivery time, that is fine.<br />
I'm having a problem with the blusher.<br />
Seller, please ask yourself, when did you promise the blusher for me.<br />
And how long have you delayed.<br />
The reason why i ordered was cos i wanted it really badly, cos i loved it.<br />
When you said it didn arrive the first time, and offered free registered post, i accepted cos i really loved The blush, and would wait.<br />
Then, you tell me that it might not be in the next package again.<br />
How do you think i would feel?<br />
I dont feel cheated by you, dont worry.<br />
I just felt, irritated waiting for so long.<br />
I know you offered me refunds and stuff.<br />
But, as i said, i wanted the blush more than the refund.<br />
And the long and much awaited blush just kept being delayed over and over again, and it irritated me to post this here.<br />
<br />
