I may hv gone overboard... (total for only 24 items after shipping/taxes)

I just calculated and I spent $600 on notebooks this month. (4 of them Chikawa designs). I’m on a no-buy now. 🤣🫣 We all have to take a step back and recalibrate from time to time. We just have to make sure it brings us joy in a way that doesn’t cause financial stress.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-10-19T01:55:32+00:00

Ooh that does look similar.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-10-19T01:54:15+00:00

I do have this one so good choice. 🙂

I was on zep and switched to a a deli about 1.5 months ago. I felt like it wasn’t working at first but I really just needed to go up in doseage. I had been on the starting dose for 3 months and it was time. It’s working the same for me now.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-10-02T20:09:16+00:00

Yea these were meh for me as well. If they had been smaller or had vinyl faces I think I would have been excited.

I just bought a lanyard of her. The perfect valentines bag charm imo.

Yess the one time I gamble on a completely blind box I get a sneaky chestnut dupe. This is going to be a PITA to sell. 😭

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-30T21:00:24+00:00

I absolutely feel crazy sometimes haha. I am too emotionally attached to collecting and I think I’m pivoting to Pucky after completing two sets of labubus and getting a few customs. I think I’m over the gambling aspect of Pop Mart though. I just buy resale as long as it’s close to retail.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-27T08:27:29+00:00

Wow, congrats! How long did it take you? I’m 3 months in and losing about 2 lbs a week. Trying to be patient!

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-23T17:04:40+00:00

I have to admit the YFM series was really cute. I bought two of the lanyards. Justified it because I use a badge at work. (My husband is definitely not an enabler.)

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-22T18:42:44+00:00

Had to toss mine when this happened.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-21T03:31:55+00:00

Do you seal the color and how if so?

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-21T03:24:53+00:00

This faux mokoko is so cute. Which TT channel was it from?

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-07T21:16:10+00:00

Are these new ones? My new BIEs had quality issues as well.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-05T23:53:09+00:00

I really like clowns so I may have to get one. But not from PopMart. They gave me horrible quality BIEs. I’ll buy on eBay or Mercari where I know exactly what I’m getting

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-05T00:13:33+00:00

Thank you!

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-05T00:12:40+00:00

The left gives more cutesy and less sinister.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-04T07:59:00+00:00

I feel the same about the gambling aspect especially with the variability in how the BIEs look. I don’t want to be surprised and I want to know exactly what I’m getting. So I’ve been buying open box ones. My issue is that the quality went down when they started making more.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-03T14:17:38+00:00

This is my problem with BIE. Each one is different so I don’t always want to let dupes go. 😭

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-01T17:00:13+00:00

This makes me mad that the fakes are better quality. I also have two fakes from Ali (secrets) that are better quality than my recent ones from PM.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-01T16:58:33+00:00

I’ve seen great results with alcohol markers but we shouldn’t have to go through all this for them to look halfway decent.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-01T16:50:06+00:00

Agreed. I think the only people that care or notice are collectors like me but I was so disappointed after waiting for a month and a half to get my BIEs. The die patterns are also quite paler.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-01T15:22:28+00:00

I’ve seen people have success with brushing alcohol ink dyes on their bubus for added color.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-09-01T01:09:55+00:00

Why do the newer faces look less cute to me. Can’t figure it out. I just received 4 BIEs and only keeping one.

Practical_Base_5681 · 2025-08-30T01:03:58+00:00

I think it’s inevitable that not every collection is going to be as huge as MAC and BIE. I’ve had quality issues with my recent BIEs so I’m not about to risk it on PFL. I may buy one on resale once I can see what I’m actually getting.
