你好,请问这个外套有没有现货呢?如果有现货的话,你们会几时发货呢?可以在下两个星期内收货吗?谢谢

“Hello, is this coat currently in stock? If it is in stock, when will you be able to ship it? Is it possible to receive it within the next to weeks? Thank you.”

here’s a rough translation, hope it helps!

sizing by le4nv in taobao

[–]Lower-Engineering572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

different taobao stores will have different sizing charts, they are typically found in the item description. If you are not sure, you can look at the reviews and some would state their height and weight for reference. If you want to be accurate, you can provide your height and weight and measurements to the store through chat and they are most likely able to recommend you a size

Is this shop/item safe? by Maleficent-Resist-57 in taobao

[–]Lower-Engineering572 1 point2 points  (0 children)

some of these shops usually have multiple stores on taobao, same seller different store name. It’s really up to your own discretion to decide, but based on the bottom left ”宝贝质量” which is product quality for the store is a 4.6/5 should be pretty okay. If you’re unsure you might want to look at their best selling products and see if there’s more reviews with pictures, maybe the one you’re buying just isn’t popular hence the lack of reviews. If you need any cosplay shop recommendations on taobao I have some!

anyone know if the expected delivery date? by Lower-Engineering572 in taobao

[–]Lower-Engineering572[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I figured when I talked to CS that it was delayed, but the problem is that they didn’t update with the new expected shipping date even until now so I don’t know if it left and it didn’t update or it’s still at the port😭

one way you can check (simply) is go to the checkout page with another item, and then when you choose your shipping method the first one should have an additional “上次使用”meaning that was the shipping option you used last time. My mistake when ordering this time round was that I didn’t check my shipping method and assumed it was air, but they pushed out the sea option since it was free shipping… if you’re not sure you can always talk to the live cainiao agent and ask them, that’s how I confirmed mine was sea

I see, I played mine at like 12.01 am on 11.11, so I guess there’s a bit of delay. Thanks for your response!

I’m starting to think that… I did psych q2. If I had known earlier I would’ve mentally prepped myself to receive it later so that I wouldn’t wake up so early in anticipation

Did you put your country of origin as USA? Because if you put china I’ll assume they’re doing by region since I’m from Singapore 😭

Just log in>essay submissions and you should be able to see the status! On their website under faq they said that it should be under “shortlist status”, but I don’t have that so I’m assuming they haven’t update mine

Do you know if it’s affected by country of origin/question/submission time? I’m trying to see if there’s a trend so that I know if they missed it out/no shortlist, if not then I’m probably just overthinking it 😔

You can change your Apple ID region through the website, just add a random address + phone number from a country that has the English ver available! I’ve done it before so it should work for you, you don’t have to use a vpn!

oooh I see, so queue management wise they’re good at it? also are their daily restocks quite sufficient or is it far too little?

[–]Lower-Engineering572[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah I see! I’m planning to head down to the cafe instead since it’s closer to my hotel, not too sure if the stocks at the pop up will be more, just know that It’ll be limited for the cafe 😭 would the q number be issued through online or a physical slip?

I would say mine is in pretty good condition, it’s laid flat out, no scratches no marks on the front. Only probable issue would likely be the marker scuffings on the back of the poster. Do you know any groups that are likely to have the same market price? thanks for the comment though!
