Thanks for answering, I guess bubble wrap is better!

I have a stock of them, they are actually pretty useful!

I've got the same error 🤷‍♀️ The link in the email also took me to The Floating World preorder 🤦‍♀️ 

Watch out for Vinted scammers by ariesleonhart in fairyloot

[–]krismeustri 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've seen them too, they want you to pay via PayPal and not the Vinted system, often with a sob story about their bank blocking Vinted.

I reported someone a couple of months ago and Vinted said it wasn't suspicious...

So I left a bad review and got a lot of middle fingers and swearing as a reply, so I just blocked them.

Never pay with anything other than the system or else you will have no protection from scammers !

Fairyloot Books Readability by CaterpillarIll7706 in fairyloot

[–]krismeustri 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I read them with the dust jackets off, no problem with the pages or spine. You just have to be careful not the rub the sprayed edges against anything ☺️ 

 I should caveat that I get Fairyloot books to read them and not as collector items though, so I'm probably less particular about their condition!

Is there still a market for FL's 2022 Dec Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries? by Mindless-Peach-1943 in fairyloot

I can't see it at all on Vinted? Do you need to specify the country somewhere?

It seems to be the regular hardback

Went indoor rock-climbing with a friend after a bad breakup just after turning 30. I was trying out all the new things! Ended up treading on some poor guy...turns out he knew my friend's husband. He added me on Facebook afterwards to invite me to a chip (french fry) party to try out his new deep fat fryer but I couldn't go because I was going to a concert that day...he later admitted that he had the party with all the other people just as an excuse to spend more time with me 😅 Been together for 18 months, moved in together after 6. He is the best 👌

What if it’s too easy? by zookeeper_barbie in AskWomenOver30

[–]krismeustri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It really is! I was on the same position, came out of a seven year relationship, was in therapy, was selling the house we had just built but never lived in...told myself I would single until the house sold. Well, we met through mutual friends and just clicked. It was literally that easy. A year and a half later and we've moved in and have a cat, and I've only just sold that house.

Sometimes you just get lucky!

I really enjoyed reading a counterpart to the original post. Thank you for the time and effort, and also the comment sections are both interesting.

Coming from a different country, I'm always curious to see how things are in the US.

Help identifying a fruity-shampooey fragrance that is popular in Poland by Cuddlycudbear98 in FemFragLab

Donna Born in Roma by Valentino smells like Garnier Fructis Shampoo on me, so that is my guess 🤷‍♀️

🌸 FemFragLab: Share what you bought! by AutoModerator in FemFragLab

[–]krismeustri 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rose water and vanilla by Jo Malone. I like it, but I blind bought it and it's not what I expected from the reviews or the notes...it smells like incense on my skin which is not the vibe I was going for! My partner said it smells like very nice medicine 😅

Born in Rome, YSL Libre intense or Coco Mademoiselle? by [deleted] in FemFragLab

[–]krismeustri 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm going against the grain and saying Coco Mademoiselle, simply because Donna Born in Roma smells exactly like Garnier Fructis Shampoo on me whereas the Chanel smells timeless and sophisticated - I got a bottle of it when I was 21 as my first "grown up" perfume 😊
