>>10891414Noticed all her posts were deleted today kek but I archived some. https://archive.li/TyEVO, https://archive.li/dnd8Z, https://archive.li/sIqe2, https://archive.li/EVDi0, https://archive.li/hv6IF>two day old account, no feedback>says she's been in lolita 4 years, interested for 10>dresses thrown on floor with no regard>listed all as NWOT, even if stained>listed JSKs as OPs>made reference to AP in almost every listing>if it wasn't an AP dress she listed it as offbrand>placed BIN price lower than bidding price in all listings>bidding for 30 days lol>trash and feet in pics>has that she's bipolar in her LM bio
>>10891416>tfw archive.li is blockedplease post screenshots, I want to laugh at retards too
>>10891429Got you nonna!

>>10891431>>10891432>>10891433why is all her shit crumpled up on the kitchen floor
>>10891435I can understand the occasional small stain from just wearing your garments a lot but this is kinda embarrassing.
i always wonder what girls like her are thinking. I know it's rare, but seriously? or am i the out of touch one.wonder what she'll end up getting for it.
>>10891441She's a known scalper, she knows it won't sell for that but has to try for the profit.
Any takers?
>>10891479KEK
>>10891441Sometimes I get pissed because she has a dress for sale I’ve been looking for, but fuck you bitch I’m not paying that shit
>>10891479Japanese lolitas hang them from the ceiling along with stars and other stuff.
>>10891416god why are bipolar lolitas so annoying? there are two in my comm and they just sperg and act maniac at every meetup
So I strongly suspected that when she says she's been a lolita since she was 19, she means she's been haphazardly buying random crap off of Depop for 4 years, and a quick search seems to confirm this. Picrel her account with more clothes strewn across the floor. This would explain the funny ignorance over her own brand pieces, she's buying overpriced stuff like it was any other trend while oblivious to the wider lolita subculture.You can also find her X, AO3, and Pinterest accounts under this username, the last one shows some of the other fashion she's into but I won't post them here since they're off-topic for secondhand.
>>10891601her depop purchases...she's an ageplayer
>>10891601This is a cursed rabbit hole
>>10891552>acting maniacI mean... what do you think being bipolar means? Kek
>>10891416Remember nonnas. It's not new with tags if the price part was ripped off.
>>10891432Bless whoever keeps calling her out for real.
>>10891416same vibes as picrel. i wonder if its her.
>>10891756what kind of sick freak puts shoes on top of their dress like that?
>>10891756There's a lot to take in from this picture
>>10891756Wtf. Floor looks the same just different area of kitchen. Where's this from?
>>10891619was gonna call this tinfoil but she has an onlyfans in her carrd
>>10891432Wait a minute >someone else sold this to me without the bow for $300 on here>on hereHer account is days old kek this has to be a lie to save face, unless she has a dupe
>>10891697I don't even understand how that's supposed to be worn.
>>10891756The longer I stare at this the worse it gets.
>>10891841isn't it a shitty hat? i don't know why it's called a tiara...
>>10891601What is an "embroidered lolita on the chest"?
>>10891882I believe the word "Lolita" is actually just embroidered on the chest. That's what it sound like anyways.
>>10891912With obvious racism aside, what could this possibly even mean, nonna? I've seen filthy white women with dark pit stains on their blouses and dresses.
>>10891938Yeah, it's almost always filthy white women who get posted here. Poor bait attempt
>>10891940Thats because most of the english speaking world is white
Presented without comment
>>10891952black people are extremely clean, nonnie. I know you've never met any because you don't leave your basement, but most black ppl i know don't allow shoes in their house, they don't wear outside clothes on their bed, etc.
>>10891967I literally just stated a fact, I don't know why you're going off on this weird tirade. Chill the fuck out nonna.
>>10891952Sure, and it still means that's assumption of "of course they're black" makes no fucking sense kek
>>10891756is that a toe??
>>10891940that's because there aren't a lot of black people involved to begin with lol but anyway both white and black girls always have the grossest rooms
JANNIES, DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS MESS
>>10891983This is such a weird statement. I know more black lolitas than white ones.
>>10892016How is it weird? They’re right. The few people you know is not an accurate representation of the entire community
This board is such a shitshow now. Stop falling for obvious bait faggots.
>>10891697Is it covered in hot glue strings, or pet hair? Either way, nasty.
>>10891967All I'm getting from this is that black people are neurotic. Even if this was true and not total bullshit, it's not the gotcha you think it is.
>>10891841i thought this was tar mixed with shaving cream
>>10892033>now
>>10891756>random hair on the pig dirty floor>cat toilet with shit on it next to food bowl>decides that thus is a good spot for a pictureWhat the actual fuck? This has to be a troll
>>10891778She was in our discord a year or so ago. Not saying which one since its small. She got banned because we thought she was a troll. I guess it turns out she was real. Or she's trolling LM too.
>>10891756Jesus, get this girl a broom, a vacuum, and a mop stat. I can not understand why someone would do this
>>10891978I'm going to hope and pray that it's a cat's paw, because otherwise that toe is necrotic. The whole image looks like a crime scene.
If you guys aren't taken dirty floor pics, you're writing passive aggressive descriptions in your listings. I know this fashion attracts women children like flies but are there any non dramatic lolitas out there?
>>10892245the weirdest thing about this listing is the mention of “price undisclosed” in the description. like why even need to mention that? why so cagey about the price you guys agreed on? most reserved listings put a random number anyway and then don’t even say anything about it.
>>10892245What is wrong with the description? Does this really live rent free in your head
>>10892275The only thing that lives rent free in my head are PT's singing videos. But I think I'm finally starting to understand women that leave lolita because poorfags and women children really are the worst.
>>10892285>still seething about a goofy japanese rabbit dressit's obviously a joke anon. your blaring autism is showing.
>>10892245
>>10892289>>10892293Are you ok? I’m not seething about the dress I am only pointing out the awful behavior that plagues this community. Being this defensive about it is so weird. Anyways i recognized the OPs user name and it turns out she was caught posting on the farms and I’m genuinely hoping this isn’t her trying to shit up a thread again lmao
>>10892298anon you're making a mountain out of a molehill. sounds like vendetta
>>10892298>"are there any non dramatic lolitas out there?">casual lolcow user
>>10892245Oh, it sold. With the money, maybe now she can finally fix that roof.
>>10892298>>10892304stop shitting up the thread with your shitty vendetta.
>>10892275>>10892289>>10892301>>10892305sorry you got posted
>>10892373oof.
>>10892373>>10892386KEK
>>10892386>>10892391as if that isn't insanely easy to fake, screenshots like that mean nothing
>>10892399you're really invested.
>>10892399you have severe autism
>>10892400And doing it again is supposed to change my mind how exactly? You should spend more time on home improvement and less time arguing here.
>>10892209it's got a toenail...
>>10891967clearly never been to the hood
>>10892302Nta but lolcow is dry as fuck just like this board. Even lolita drama is so boring. Like wow another lolita outed as a psycho or an ethot? Color me surprised. I think the lonelitas are onto something.
>>10892567Most of the lolita farms general shit is just manufactured drama from mentally ill autists who got their feelings hurt once. Take Momo for example. People are intent on just causing drama.
>>10892578lolcow is just oops! all vendetta posts
>>10892275I hate it when people on lace market write stupid descriptions like this. Idc about your piss poor motivational speech I want my dress.
>>10892583there's some boundaries that get crossed beyond just observation in this community. i.e., calling jobs, interfering with people's personal lives, actual stalking.
>>10892586aren't you just a sensitive little flower that needs to be sheltered by some padded walls
>>10892588Same. It's worse when the person is 30+.
>>10892587i think it'd be one thing if it was someone who actually hurt someone/confirmed predators but most of the girls in there are random nobodies. i have concerns about reposting girls photos with their relative location (local comm) and often real name attached to an image board like that, it makes it much easier for predators to stalk these girls in real life.
>>10892588no one wants to buy shit from a cringelord.
>>10892625>poorfag thinks sensitive feefees are involved when buying thingsno one cares
>>10892625Just stop engaging. It's obvious the seller is here defending themselves because who else would be this invested in an item description to reply to every negative anonymous comment?
>>10892632Someone who has a vendetta and is fake white knighting. I’ve def done the WK fake out to make it look like someone I didn’t like was defending themselves…
>>10892634That's a really weird and creepy thing to admit to doing, even anonymously. Hopefully you got therapy and moved past that kind of behavior.
>>10892634Thank you for proving my point anon. Lonelitas FTW
>>10892640this entire board plus tiktok makes me never regret my lonelita decision. it's funny because my cousin's friend has been trying to get me to join her comm forever and keeps stalking me at the cafe i frequent but she's exactly the type of crazy ita who would do some vendetta wk crap.
>>10892640I've always been lonelita because of location and not by choice, wish I could get fucked over by comm drama too so I would get over it and be happy with myself. Grass is always greener ig
>>10892638Well when people fuck with me I fuck with them. Play chess not checkers ladies. And it’s not worth being so dramatic about being a lonelita. You have no friends, we get it. It really isn’t that bad being in a comm unless you’re unlucky and live in unhinged-ville. Drama is an occupational hazard that lonelitas aren’t totally spared from anyways, it’s good to have friends and allies, even just online.
>>10892713chess is setplay, anon.
>>10892713This post is so silly, being a lonelita just means you aren't apart of a comm and/or don't have anyone to wear lolita with IRL, not that you don't have friends lmao. Also not every bodies friends want to wear and invest in an extravagant and expensive jp fashion or may be more interested in other "alt" fashions. I have gotten a few to try it though. You can be totally spared from drama too if you don't have any/private social media presence and y'know keep to yourself. Makes it harder to doxx or cancel someone as we know that a select few of psycholitas like to do. >it’s good to have friends and allies, even just online.This I can agree with and you can still do it while being a lonelita.
>>10892638All’s fair in love and dramu. Get on her level nonny
>>10892715NTA but can confirm that people absolutely do this. I know someone who literally faked a self post and it got so bad the girl she targeted left the comm. I haven’t believed anything like that on cgl since. There’s very little truth behind what goes on the boards most of the time. RVR is a perfect example.
>>10892725i’m sorry that happened to that girl but the other way around can happen too. i know a girl who faked false hate towards herself then used it as proof that she was being targeted and got tons of sympathy points, despite me and some mutual friends she had wronged having actual dirt on her, such as being a pacifier sucking ebegging freak with dozens of caps of her shitting on her “friends”. we never posted any of it but sometimes i wonder if we should have.
>>108927341000%. Even big names have been caught doing this…
>>10892747yep. they also make up ludicrous accusations that are blatantly false and pretend to be multiple anons posting hate. that way the real, less crazy dirt looks fake if it’s posted later.
>>10892713>And it’s not worth being so dramatic about being a lonelita.>anons proceed to name the manipulative shit that goes onListen anon you can do whatever you want but I'm not convinced kek
>>10892875NTA but you have to take everything on here with a grain of salt. It’s also definitely the minority. Most people irl are actually decent and fun to be around in my experience. This hobby def attracts a lot of weirdos, but for me anyways it’s been totally worth it to engage in the comms. Though I do live in an area with a pretty big somewhat active comm, so that makes a difference I’m sure.
>>10892875Honestly it’s not the norm and I would still encourage you to socialize with other lolitas, but you have to be careful who you befriend. If somebody gets hate posted on here, use your brain and think about what kind of image they’re trying to curate. If helps you determine if it’s real hate, somebody trying to make them look bad, or themselves trying to garner pity.
>>10892916>If somebody gets hate posted on here, use your brain and think about what kind of image they’re trying to curate.This is totally stupid advice, especially given that OP was replying to a vandettaposter who admitted she enjoyed shitposting in order to incite hate for another party. She really needs help honestly. Think about what the implications are for that person choosing to devote any amount of time to do that. It's not healthy behavior.
>>10892928Read the rest of my post, I completely agree that weird vendettaposters like OP are out there. But the opposite happens too.
>>10892931who fucking cares? none of this matters if you aren't reading the farms like the morning paper. if you don't want to engage with drama just don't go to the drama website. EZ. lc users don't have the balls to confront you in person anyway
>>10892979>who cares about deranged vendetta-chan's going out of their way to cause drama in someones lifeI guess if it hasn't happened to you you wouldn't care/get it but it can really be miserable.
>>10892931I DID read your post and the implication that people being posted on here are here for a reason is blatantly retarded.
Stfu about lonelitas and post embarrassing lace market listings
>>10892984This happened to me. It’s interesting because in the moment it feels really bad, and it makes you feel super anxious because you don’t know who your friends actually are and it really did look like I was the one posting. But I realized that no one really cares about what’s said on this shitty cesspool anyways, and cgl is so stigmatized to participate in no one will actually own up to having seen it here. I’ve since been a lonelita, and I only hang out with people I care to see, which isn’t a lot of people. There are a lot of people who definitely take this all too seriously, my local comm was cringe as hell anyways so it’s not like it was a massive loss, but it was really stressful when it happened.
>>10892999original anon: this is my point, though. no one will ever own up to it or confront you. if you simply didn't read the website at all, the vendetta wouldn't have impacted you in any real way. it's a self-inflicted problem.
>>10893001Someone else being a shithead and doing something to you isn't "self inflicted", retard
>>10893001Well congratulations I’m sure you’d handle it great if it happened to you.
>>10892734This is so retarded. I'd much prefer people faking and fishing for sympathy than people actually being chased out of our community because of it. I know this is extreme but it reminds me of the same logic as rape accusations lmao I thought it was funny
>>10893023i mean she chased one of our mutual friends out of the community, so.
This girl has been reposting this dress at the same price for well over a year. Just discount it at this point
>>10893034Tbh it’s hella cute and I haven’t seen it before. For many people the price they list is the only price that makes it worth it to them to sell it. Price isn’t obscene or even that high. Why discount if you don’t actually need the sale? You’re applying poorfag logic to someone who might just value the item/hassle of sale at $180.
>>10893042She clearly needs the sale if she goes through the hassle of remaking the listing every week instead of relisting it
>>10892987Wtf is that
>>10893034It literally sold for ~100$ this year on Mercari
>>10892987This gives weird cutecore vibes, it’s gross
>>10893052Sounds like you should have bought it on mercari then kek. Her price is fine, you’re just sandy because you missed it on the cheap.
>>10893049It’s automatic you dingus.
>>10893078Didn't want it then and don't want it now. You can keep your overpriced dress scalper-chan.
>>10893031Yeah I mean there's a very clear line between believing someone and going out of your way to harass the accused relentlessly but I guess that's to be expected with all the bpd-chans in our community desu
>>10893082Just because you can’t afford it doesn’t mean it’s over priced, but yeah it’s real cute how you went to the trouble of posting and complaining about a lack of price reductions on this dress you DEF didn’t want kek. It’s not my listing and I really dgaf about anything other than calling out poorfag logic. If she needed the sale she’d reduce the price. If I were her and I saw this thread I’d increase the price out of spite. Go cry about it nonny no one here cares about normal sellers just selling stuff below retail that you happen to think is overpriced.
>>10893049>doesn’t know about auto relist feature Do you even go here?
>>10893049t. seething retard
>>10893085I didn't even post it initially, seethe more unhinged cyber warrior
>>10893090>didn’t want it then, and don’t want it now Sure Jan. Tbh I feel bad for you. $180 is chump change.
>>10893011i wouldn't know, because i don't use lolcow. simple as.
>>10893005be serious
>>10893031two wrongs don't make a right. I'm sure you've done the same sort've harassment anonymously to other girls outside of the one you're speaking about. I can't imagine any girl in this community has a lick of self awareness.
>>10893097don't say that, you're going to make the poor gen z faggots on this board seethe. they don't know what it's like to buy brand full price!! they have to work months for 1 dress!
>>10893100if you got posted on lolcow, you'd notice. you'll get messages from sainte asking you to be his gf, then weird people doing funky things on your socials, along with potentially random strangers showing up at your job, places you go to, events, even your house. I think some of you don't realize that this is all cached on google, you're going to be searchable for someone's vendetta. Hope you don't post publicly.
>>10893102i haven't. don't project your bad behavior onto others
>>10893087>>10893087Since when does lacemarket put your listing on the top of the front page every week then delete your old listing so it says This auction has been deleted and can no longer be accessed? Fucking retard.
>>10893097I'm the OP and I actually own the dress, it's all over xianyu and not rare at all. I should have specified the spam for each of her listings is annoying, but it's funny that she has RARE in the title of this one
>>10892987Lmao the etsy seller charges $200 for these abominations
>>10893111it's not my bad behavior, it's just awareness that most of you are unhinged backstabbers
>>10893001>if you simply didn't read the website at all, the vendetta wouldn't have impacted you in any real way.>rumors don't impact people if they don't know about themare you actually serious? do you know how often people will avoid others because of a baseless rumor?
>>10893101He's trying to say not to get pressed by strangers who have no impact on you, like randos in youtube comments, not members of your niche hobby you need to interact with in good standing to buy things from and potentially hang out with.
>>10893103>>10893114anons seem angrier than usual tonight, everything ok?
>>10893128They do this even without anonymous vendetta posting
>>10893101To be a lolita you inevitably have to be online and involved in the community in some capacity. Even if you just use lacemarket and nothing else people stalk LM accounts as you can see plainly in these threads. But its different when its a comm member doing it to you and you have to actually interact with said person IRL. It sounds like youre advocating for people being bullied out of the fashion by BPD-chans with vendettas which is clown shit.
>>10893117Tbh some of the skirts aren’t bad but you can tell that they don’t have lots of experience with lolita. Plus mixing it with the outrageous prices. This is why you only buy from stores that specialize in lolita.
>>10893103Gen Z are the ones driving the price up for everything, have you seen any deals lately compared to 2020 even? All the scalped listings are being bought up by these n00bs.
>>10893181Gen z kids can’t afford most things on lace market on their own. the teens you see buying up overpriced listings are spoiled kids that their parents pay for. Wait a year or two for the prices of those items to go down since most of them are trendhoppers.
>>10893185>>10893181You know gen z is as old as 26 right?
>>10893186Kek nonny unintentionally reveals they’re dusty af
>>10893128that anon is obviously autistic or they've never had friends before
>>10893129>2012no it's a fucking internet hate machine troll post. yall take shit so literal for being on 4chan
>>10893187>26>dusty afit's so funny seeing people who think like this have a mental break when they turn 25
>>10893193I think they meant more that the anon calling gen Z children when they can be as old as 26 is what makes them dusty. Not that 26 is.
>>10893199none of us like gen z insufferable cunts, regardless of the age range
>>10893186Are you illiterate? I say kids and teen 3 times in this post. Read the entire comment before responding.
>>1089321626 isn't teen...
>>10893218Are you seriously that stupid? I wasn’t insisting that 26 year olds are spoiled “kids” I was talking about actual kids that are 13 - 17.
>>10893140that's the opposite of what i'm saying. these kinds of people would confront you at a meet up. if you aren't reading the hate comments, how would you be bullied out of the community when the ones making them are too chicken shit to say anything to your face? half of them likely don't even go to meet ups, and even if they did, they'd be the one who looks bad by admitting to using lolcow.stop worrying about what vendettachans online have to say and just enjoy the hobby. sinking to their level makes you just as childish, but ignoring them and remaining unbothered means the only one miserable is them. if you prefer self isolation, that's your prerogative, but i still say you're tormenting yourselves over a pathetic gossip website and working yourself into a paranoid frenzy. grow up.
>>10893250nah they just go to comm mods with gossip instead like idiots. trust me they go to meet ups, that's the whole reason why you get these weird shits with vendettas over someone breathing wrong in their vicinity. if they are like that online, they are like that IRL.
>>10892734How does one even get caught doing that? She must have done a terrible job kek
>>10892928New to 4chan?
>>10887382the comm thread is over there if you want to talk about comm drama and nasty rumors
>>10893264never seen someone get "caught," myself, without mod intervention. >>10892734 nonny, you got something to say?
>>10893264>>10893325she bragged about it privately. zero consequences for her and no mod intervention. i won’t elaborate further since it’s not public, sorry.
What's the point of listing shoes this damaged
>>10893389If the leather is quality, this may be completely fixable at a cobbler, just most likely too expensive for the seller to even bother. It seems that the upper is mostly undamaged from the preview (not gonna check lm I'm too lazy) so it might be worth fixing for someone who wants more durable shoes at a bargain.
>>10893393Nta but i don’t think those are leather, they’re peeling
>>10893389some people like projects, and some people buy pieces just for photos; as long as it has good angles, doesn't matter if it doesn't function. i have a bag i use exclusively for photos because i like how it looks but it's decade old pleather that i don't want to risk past that
>>10892578Who is momo?
>>10892734Comm mods seem to be the biggest dumbfucks. My comm always has drama bc the mod refuses to acknowledge how terrible she is at taking action and dealing with 25+ year old drama mongers. This is why the other mods in the state shit on her behind closed doors unless it’s con season, where they travel to a con with a large lolita presence in our area. I really miss the other mod before her position, but she is not the best at hosting events for the comm. I just wish we could go back to simpler times where drama wasn't this big and lolcow wasn’t a shitshow because of the mod mis managing due to favoritism and being a cluster.
>>10891619>pacifiers Jesus Christ, you’re right.
why the fuck is this featured on LM
>>10893771It's just a quirk in how the Circlly hosting works, an item featured in any of the marketplaces gets shown on all of them. There's been plenty of instances of other jfash and cosplay pieces getting featured on the EGL site.
>>10893771This should be in the stupid questions thread. There are multiple markets on Circlly, if an item is featured it shows on each market in place of where an ad would.
>>10893787huh, i guess their other markets must be super dead, this is the first time i've ever seen anything not j fashion related be promoted on LM. thanks anon.
>>10893811I wish Gothic Lovers would get some activity. I always see goths online asking where to buy clothes and I think GL has some potential. But I know it would get overrun with dropshippers.
>>10893085>It’s not my listing and I really dgafObviously you are if you're getting this aggressive and personally invested over it kek. I fucking love this thread because the most unhinged sellers who're not so subtly wking themselves here make it very easy to avoid them.
>>10893840This. Its tiring to see poorfags come and complain about things priced around or under retail. We get it, you're poor. Go cry about it somewhere else.
total noob here, i saw someone say "dont understand second hand etiqueete" explain?what is concidered good etiquette?
>>10893846>no worn pics in listings, it’s not depop>If listing says no offers, NO OFFERS or haggling >read the buyer tos to avoid stupid questions that have already been answered >if there’s a lolibary listing for it don’t ask for measurements, you can ask if the lolibary measurements are accurate only if you’re really worried but even that I’ve found to be annoying for certain pieces>always disclose even the smallest damage>don’t list dirty ass dresses that can be easily cleanedThere’s more but I’m lazy
>>10893844Agreed. It's poorfag mentality. Spend less time seething over things you can't change and more time working on yourself so you can afford things instead of rotting and seething. This thread just enables tantrum throwing children.
Stop derailing the thread with unrelated drama.
>>10893930Sure jan. Dead board.
>>10893846lurking moar
Alright who got it
>>10894002It's so disappointing to see most of this scalper's reviews be from shopping services used by westerners. Japanese lolitas clearly know better than to support this cunt.
>>10894003I lived in Japan a couple years ago for a short period and purchased from her, she immediately cancelled my orders. She will only sell to shipping services because they cannot leave bad reviews. It’s unfortunate because she posted a well priced dream item but refuses to sell to real Mercari accounts
>>10894002Some newfag zoomer with no impulse control, forever encouraging the scalping trend.
>>10894017I guess the most recent sale of it hitting $1,000 on lacemarket has ruined it forever
>>10894020Someone in my comm sold theirs for $900 after that
>>10894003I've bought from this seller before with a shopping service, never an item above average resale value and never above retail though and never had any issues with undisclosed damages yet.A lot of the items she sells are overpriced though and I sometimes laugh at how delusional the pricing is.
>>10894036>I've bought from this seller before with a shopping serviceStop giving her incentive to continue snatching up every reasonably priced/popular item off Mercari just to flip it for hundreds more, she's single-handedly ruining the entire Japanese secondhand market
>>10894049Nayrt but you are so incredibly entitled if you think you have the right to boss people around and tell them who they can and cannot buy from. And she isnt "single handedlt ruining the entire japanese secondhand market", there are other scalpers too. Get over yourself
>>10894053She is clearly the most active scalper and as long as retards like you keep supporting her nothing is going to change
>>10891414Isn’t everything on etsy price gouged?
>>10894054Gonna go to my SS and order some stuff from her rn so you can shit yourself even harder lol. cope.
>>10894054Maybe if you got a real job and not something like fast food or retail you could afford to buy from her too.
>>10894056>>10894060even if you can afford it, i wouldn't recommend it; she doesn't disclose damages. i bought some items from her a while back and they were pit-stained and smelled like motor oil.
>>10894065That's the main reason I would consider not buying from her in the future. I never buy overpriced things (above average resale value) anyway, but I got lucky I never got anything with undisclosed damages. It's obvious from the fact that she cancels orders from anyone who isn't a shopping service, that she is trying to get away with something. I call her "pink vending machine" because that's what her profile picture looks like, does she have another account (perhaps on mercari) that she uses to sell things?
>>10894056>>10894060Bragging about massively overpaying for items isn't the "gotcha" that you think it is
>>10894111>thinking that adults with jobs spending their money how they please instead of giving into autistic raging of poorfags on the internet is "bragging"Get a job
>>10894111someone makes $13 an hour
>>10894113You can spend your money how you please but we're also free to laugh at you for it>>10894126Whatever you need to tell yourself to justify paying $800 for a damaged crusty dress from 2001
>>10894127And we're free to laugh at you for being a whiny entitled poorfag
>>10894127Calling a good condition dress damaged and crusty just because you couldn't afford it has the same energy as a guy saying "she's ugly anyway" after getting rejected kek
>>10894128You just keep perpetuating the cycle of bowing down to people that love scalping you and make a living doing it, and you brag about that. This newfag mentality is pathetic. inb4 durr poor!!1 I earn a lot too, and I keep it. You're not smart enough to be thrifty. That's what's so hilarious to everyone else looking in.
If you actually earned "a lot" you wouldn't be this pressed over people spending their money on what they want. Grow up.
>>10894060Being financially irresponsible isn't something to brag about, retard.
>>10894137Nobody is pressed. We think it's hilarious, actually.
>>10894137LOL keep diggin' that hole nonny, you're the one getting willfully SCALPED. It's okay to admit you're new!
>>10894140>>10894139Cope
>>10894133Again, multiple people have confirmed this seller often sells things with undisclosed damages. You're getting ripped off and you think it's brag-worthy, it's really funny. I don't understand the mentality of thinking that overpaying on damaged goods because you need that instant gratification makes you better than everyone. Just makes you stupid.
>>10894053found the scalper
So many poorfags ITT shaking crying and struggling to cope with market fluctuation
>>10894065I have seen her sell bleach-stained items with the garment carefully folded to cover the stains. I really wouldn't buy from her unless you are happy to risk getting a seriously damaged item.
>>10894150Lmao I’m not anyone who’s been posting ITT but NT. I just think you sound bitter
>>10894225The proverbial "you" , not literally you the poster. Reading comprehension.
>>10894237nayrt but kek, way to backtrack. nice try newfag
>>10894239sure sounding bitter for someone who's not part of any of this and definitely not bothered by being called out on being an idiot, mhmm
>>10894150>"You're getting ripped off and you think it's brag-worthy, it's really funny." in the same reply, to (You) >The proverbial "you" , not literally you the poster.Sure Jan, totally doesn't sound like you're addressing anyone!
>>10894288Sorry you failed high school English.
I'm so glad I don't know any of you IRL woof
>>10894296Sorry you failed at life and work a minimum wage job spending your days crying about what other people do with their own money. Bleak!
>>10894365Again. Whatever you need to tell yourself to make you feel better. So valid bestie.
>>10894368>So valid bestie.tells me enough, cringe twitter user
>>10894370You fall for bait so easily.
Everytime someone gets overly defensive over scalping, it always escalates into this spergfest of projection and calling everyone else poorfags. No one with money and a steady job feels the need to scalp in the first place.
>>10894056Okay, post screenshots of it then. This larp is embarrassing.
>>10894005This is interesting, do you know what japanese lolitas think regarding this? Do they block them? Two or three years ago I saw them complaining about scalpers on one of their imageboards but the discussion was rather short lived.
Daily reminder that most lolita will never obtain their dream dresses let alone own few wish list items if they're not willing to pay the price.
>>10894410It's sad that you think like this.
>>10894410i got my dream print a week ago and it was less than retail despite being a commonly scalped item. patience is a virtue.
>>10894410 Some of us are lucky enough to have entered lolita when making good deals was normal and not an exception. I got that same hospitality doll set for 20k yen when Mercari was still pretty unknown and it sat on there for months before I bought it. Most of my moitie main pieces were also below $200. But I get that you'd think like this if you started lolita now, when the 85% of mercari/fril/y!auctions is littered with the same 5-something scalpers buying up all the good deals and when even all the second hand shops raised their prices above retail for the most unwanted items. Must be tough
>>10894489Man, I miss the good old days. The fashion was so much more enjoyable to me before it really took off and actually getting your hands on the clothes became a competition.
>>10894491Nayrt but " before it really took off"? Every year there's someone saying that lolita fashion is dead.
>>10894512It's definitely a dead shell of what it once was, though the fragments of the shell are more widespread than ever.
>>10894416Probably a unpopular one then.What that anon was trying to say was that most of the highly sought after items are hard to come by with fair pricing.it's not only the dresses, but the accessories, blouses, and jewelry.
>>10894549>most of the highly sought after items are hard to come by with fair pricing.Maybe currently, but not always. What's popular or highly sought after comes and goes in cycles. There are things that were popular years ago that sell cheaply now. And things that were unpopular back then that are now being scalped for $500+. Patience really is key here, like the other anon said.
>>10894364Or do you? ;)
>>10894134>This newfag mentality is patheticget the word newfag out of your mouth you pathetic swine. if you can't pay for lolita, then the tenure on this board means jack all. it's not relevant to lolita either, you dumb piece of shit. just because you paid for some cheap old school items when we all called it ita, doesn't make you the law for ACTUALLY SOUGHT AFTER items. you were ita then and are now. no one cares.
>>10894138ouch. we have a cosplayer posting in the thread. why are you here, visitor? no one cares about the trash you make. lolita costs money, if you're too poor then no one fucking cares.get a job and no your etsy business does not count as a real job
>>10894387nta, it's not bait to type like a retard. bait aint what you think it is you dumb little newfag.
>>10894532this is a retarded comment. most of the brand was in japan at it's peak, you fucking idiot. again, tired of newfags on this board acting like they know shit. trash fucking board should be deleted because we get gen z retards coming on here all the time.
>>10894554>>10894555>>10894556>>10894557Holy seething samefag Batman
Am I missing something? I swear I saw this set sitting for weeks on yahoo auctions
>>10893652A literal who that an overweight tub of lard bullied out of a Texas comm.
>>10894082She has a Mercari account she uses for buying. When she purchases off me, I leave a negative review because I hate her scalping ass.
>>10894556I typed that way to make you/the poster upset. And it worked. So yes, it was bait, and you fell for it. Dumbass.
>>10894594>Jokes on them I was only pretending to be retarded
>>10894594>she thinks she's a troll by using a phrase>"teehee I am so random and quirky by saying a word. it's bait. teehee"gb2tiktok, your neurodivergents are calling you.
>>10894554What's with the constant vendetta against the oldschoolers? Jealous of their wardrobes much?
>>10894596>>10894597Continue to keep being mad about it. That was the point.
>>10894607No one calling you cringe is mad lmao
>>10894608OK. Keep replying acting like you're not pressed.
>>10894611You're unironically unhinged for thinking like this desu
>>10894489I have deep regrets not getting it sooner in life. A lot of people who do wear it is busting the buttons cause they don’t fit it. Why won’t Meta re-release it?
>>10894586It's some anime collab release, which always end up being sought after, despite looking worse than Taobao, sold by the delusional Fril scalper - you do the match
>>10894592>When she purchases off me, I leave a negative review because I hate her scalping ass.Are you not allowed to cancel transactions/block buyers on Mercari?
>>10894604No one cares about those old towel rags. We could have gotten them before you were squeezed out of your mom's vagina
>>10894611Get a job
>>10894554Lmao seething newfag confirmed. It's fine anon, I understand your anger and coping. I would be seething too if I would have to pay 5x more for my wardrobe in the current state of lolita.
>>10894614They actually did some inspired-rereleases like the Engelsbeginn series, which are essentially HD but with slightly longer skirt and more details. But these are even rarer than HD because they were some region-limited release. I'm sorry nonna, just try to be patient, there always pop up one or two reasonably priced sets around Halloween.
>>10894592Yes, her mercari account is https://jp.mercari.com/user/reviews/434325837Also thee was some speculation that she's chinese.
>>10894617You need a valid reason to cancel. You can block users. She bought listings I didn’t think she would try to scalp but she did anyway. I would rather have the money and leave negative feedback kek.
>>10894630>>10894630NTA They barely look anything alike anon. Do you also think every nurse themed release is HD inspired?
>>10894658I'm talking about the blouse/skirt/headdress set. It was literally stated by meta themselves that it's made to be in reference to HD.
>>10894002The worst colorway too kek. Someone is a sucker.
>>10894684Aini waffles got it. She also spent more than that much on a damaged die walkure set I’m not sure if from the same scalper but LOL
>>10894688It wasn't her that bought this, you're thinking of the one she bid a grand on on lacemarket. Which someone still outbid but at least it wasn't going to a scalper.
>>10894689The one precisely.
>>10894684The fuck are you on? Black x pink is great faggot
>>10894822nayrt and I love the color combo but its by far the worst for hospitality doll.
>>10894555What the fuck are you talking about?Lolita costs money and you can still be responsible with money while wearing the fashion. My god, you probably live in a dumpy trailer.
>>10893146>not badNot bad? Are we looking at the same dresses? Somewhere a sweatshop's uneducated child worker is having nightmares about making something so horrid. A blind man with both arms amputated would have designed something better. My five year old cousin would do better. This is somehow worse than even Lady Sloth, it's worse than the care bears dress. This is your shop, isn't it?
>>10894002wtf guess I should sell mine
>>10894823Nayrt, it's my favorite colorway. Who knew black and pink could be so divisive
>>10894942Don't let the price fool you, someone got desperate and it's not worth that. But if it's sax you can probably scalp AW for it though kek
am i just a poorfag or is this like, a bit insane
>>10895059The starting bid is not really that much more than what a new blouse from IW would cost. I don't think that's too crazy. It's high for me, so I wouldn't buy it, but I don't think it's ridiculous.
>>10895059It’s a bit high but not outrageous. Pricing on items pre 2010 is all over the place. A piece going on 20 years old, if in good condition, is def worth 150-175 usd to the right buyer. A girl in my comm dropped $350 on a vintage 90s eta baby dress that had only come up once before on LM but went for like $80. It was so rare/old that she didn’t care about the price.
>>10895068Do you have the LM listing/name of the dress? Interested in seeing what it was, I hardly ever see anything by them from the 90s
>>10895059i mean people can price what they want but that blouse is so generic idk why anyone would pay that? I’ve bought older blouses with as much detail for ¥8000
>>10895108classics tend to hoard clothing and are usually willing to pay more for "plain" secondhand pieces than sweets. and the price isn't much different than IWs new blouses retail for. i would happily pay $200+ for my dream blouse due to age + rarity if it ever popped up.
>>10895059Kind of high but not really insane. I’d buy it instantly for $100. Someone will probably buy it for the current price, but I don’t think it’ll sell quickly. It’s also not a plain/generic blouse, it has lots of nice details.
