What gets me is that I chose EMS shipping yet they shipped using DHL. DHL is cheaper than EMS, but I didn't take note of the difference in costs when I was checking out. I was afraid of getting hit by customs because I heard that it happens a lot with DHL, but luckily I didn't. Still, it's pretty messed up of wholesale7.net to use a different shipping carrier when I chose another one and paid more. I didn't email them to complain because I got the package in 3 days and wasn't charged customs. Also, it has been awhile and I believe that they can't do anything to satisfy me. If it happens to you I highly suggest you email them back asking for a refund. If they don't comply, work with Paypal.
Moving on to the items:
Korea Fashionable Man-made Fur Lambswool Overcoat
$11.25
As you can see, it doesn't really look like the item in the pictures. When I took it out of the plastic bag, some of the material got all over me and the clothes so I had to shake it outside. It's okay, but it's cheap. It's one of the items I was okay with, but I haven't worn it out. I'm glad I purchased it off wholesale7.net instead of ebay though, because if I did I would've been pissed for paying way more.
New Autumn fashion Fuzzy Fleece Sweater
$5.75
This one was the worst item. The material is thin. It wasn't the fluffy soft cardigan I imagined. The buttons don't match up with the corresponding button holes. It's 3/4 sleeved but hard to pull up because it has no stretch.
Western Style Turndown Collar Show Thin Velvet Dress
$7.50
The quality of this item was alright (on par with Forever 21 quality), but what got me was the lopsided collar. If only the collar was sewn on straight would I have liked this item. The good thing is that it's not short or too tight. Sadly I don't want it and I'm planning on trying to sell it at Crossroads or something.
Japan’s Forest Style Lovely Wool Ball Snow Hot Pants
$8.50
These shorts are one of the two items that I actually liked from this order. The knit is thick and it's a style I like. The only thing that bothers me is the crotch. It's not very flattering.
VC Tide Shoes Leopard Platform Shoes In Japan
$14.50
This is the other item I really liked. I opted for these shoes for the oos item. The initial quality seems good, but I've learned my lesson with buying shoes from wholesale sites (terrible quality, falls apart, not worth it). I've only worn these once so I'm weary of the actual quality. Another thing that gets me is the chemical smell. I've left them outside ever since I got them and they still reek of chemicals.
LENA Retro Cool Star Heavy-bottomed Platform Shoes Series
$13.75
Out of Stock
Another thing I've learned from shopping online: DO NOT RELY ON THE PICTURES. They look burgundy in the pictures, but the shoes were listed "Red". Should have known. I haven't worn these out because they're too bright for me and most likely will try to sell it to Crossroads, etc.
Overall, this haul was a fail. In my opinion, it's not worth it to buy from these type of shops. I've learned my lesson from buying wholesale shoes and now I learned my lesson buying from wholesale sites in general. It's not worth it paying how much for each item (even if it's only this many dollars per item) because most likely, the item is cheap and not good quality. I'd rather pay more for things I actually want and which are better quality. For example, Korean wholesale/non-wholesale shops. I think that the only time I will order from wholesale shops again is if I 1)Really want an item and 2)I've seen other people wear it (such as reviews or lookbook).
