[Other] Taobao wig order (closed)

By Pura. 16/04/11, 07:59 pm

Time for another Taobao wig order group \o/ (wigs will be here in time for Doujin Overload)
Anyone can join, and you can have a few wigs, obviously not like ten each, but let's say no more than 3 or 4.
Ordering a wig will end 1st May and then you have until the 12th May to pay (unless you have a very good reason to delay that). If you don't pay, you don't get wigs B| Then about a week later, there will be a second payment for shipping. I don't find out how much this is until all the wigs have been shipped to the Agent, though. Last time we ordered something like 24? wigs and the shipping was about $100NZ, split by six people (but this time I'm doing it by weight of each wig, instead of number of people).
I don't want to order more than say about 30 wigs, so if it reaches that amount, then I'll close the order.

Few rules/guidelines to follow (and general info):

- Wigs only, no cosplay commissions, shoes, etc. (Although I s'pose wig caps and combs can count, haha)
- You have to pay me before the wigs get ordered
- I am ordering through Taobao Agency
- You pay for shipping of your own wigs.
- The price of the wig is the converted CYR to NZD plus 2.9% for the Paypal fee, and then 8% for the agency fee
- Shipping gets paid in a separate payment after the first payment is made - this payment will also have a 2.9% paypal fee
- If the item that you want is out of stock when it comes to ordering, you'll be refunded (or might be able to swap wigs, but it's up to the agency to do that - last time we didn't bother)
- Wigs will be shipped to my house in Wellington. To get your wigs you can either: 1) wait for Doujin Overload and I can bring them up or 2) get them posted to you at your own expense in a tracked one day bag (three/four of them fit in a bag and it costs $8 . I will not post them any other way - I've had wigs get lost by the NZ post in similar orders, and I cannot refund the price of lost wigs within NZ).
- If NZ slaps on a service fee (which they might if the order gets too expensive, IDK about this sort of thing, really) the price will be divided by how many wigs each person got.
- Last time the amount it cost for service fees shipping was about $25 per person, and wigs we around $17 each, and we ordered about three or four wigs each (so it's still cheaper than eBay Razz

).

Er, I think I've covered most of it - I'll add stuff if I think of it, haha. If you have any questions, ask me (:

Recommended wig sellers: (use google translate if you're having trouble navigating, the sites are all Chinese, in case you can't tell Razz

)

Emo Kids: http://youngcos.taobao.com/
Ghost Cos wigs: http://ghostcos.taobao.com/
Fantasy Sheep: http://fantasysheep.taobao.com/
Young Cos Wigs: http://youngcoswig.taobao.com/
C.C. Kids: http://cckids.taobao.com/

You can use google translate to seach Taobao in general too, but you'd have to be careful about bad sellers. These five sellers I've all bought from, so I know they're good (:

Lol, I ttly just realised Emo Kids and Young cos have pretty much the same address B| Ohwell, they might be different, haha.

Edit: I don't really mind how many wigs each person gets, I just don't want the overall total to go much past 30 (:

DB I'm tempted to grab some with this order too >_> But i'll wait.

By Sebbiesawrr. 17/04/11, 04:36 am

Ohh! If you're in wellington... Could we like pick it up from you? ;x

By Pura. 17/04/11, 05:48 am

@Sebbie Of course! (:

By **Riven_**. 17/04/11, 06:21 am

Derp Chinese reading fail! Are the wigs shown only available in the colours shown, or in other colours too? (Or does this depend on the seller?)

By Pura. 17/04/11, 06:34 am

Depends on the seller.

Fantasy sheep is probably the easiest to navigate (they even list their colours in english!) but yeah, if they have it in other colours, it will be a separate listing. I know that at least Fantasy Sheep can make you the wig if they don't have it Razz

. (But it takes a month) What wig were you looking at?

By Pixel. 17/04/11, 07:11 am

/pops up
If you copy and paste the url into google translate then you can browse taobao in english!
So much easier C:

Oooh, I knew there was a way to translate websites, but they changed how you did it, so I thought they got rid of that option xDDDD

There was a wig weights estimate we drew up on our first taobao order.

'One 1m long clip on - 250g
Full Miku wig - Just under 600g
Short/Generic boy style (Patamon) - 125g
1m long wig (Luka) - 275g'

thanks! :]

By Pura. 17/04/11, 02:56 pm

^Yup, been added Very Happy

@Riven and Casey, lololol. I agree with casey. FFFF that's a nice wig. I am so tempted to get one ... once I figure out what to use it for B|
But if it is for Raikou, then he has a clip on, haha. I saw a wig earlier on that would be pretty good for him xDDDD.

By **Riven_**. 17/04/11, 02:58 pm

@Pura. I'm doing him for comp at NZAE and you should totally join /o/
also, I usually hate clipons, but I'd love to see the one you found (if you can still find it DX ) I like working with longer wigs if I have to re-weft them (MOAR HAIR THERE IN CASE THINGS GO WRONG 8D)

By Pura. 17/04/11, 03:04 pm

The wig I found didn't have a clip on, it was just the right length (I think ... I only thought it looked like his hair in passing xDD) But you could easily just find a long straight clip on and cut it. The only bad thing about clip ons is that I think just one would be heavy xDDD. I only have a Miku wig with them, so they balance the wig well cause there's two xDDD

Haha, I don't know if I can get to NZAE ): I'd also like to re-do Yoite one day, but I've decided I'm not tall enough |D (Yoite \o/)

By azeria. 17/04/11, 03:08 pm

Riven you make me want to come to NZAE and finally cosplay Raimei ;A;

my list of wigs is getting long...ahah....

By Pura. 17/04/11, 03:17 pm

Yeah, so is mine ... Will probably go over four wigs |D.
I don't really mind how many wigs everyone gets, I just don't want to order more than around 30 in total xDDD
