From June 2008 to January 2009...and that's like what? 8 months? Hell yeah!!
Does anyone recall the Topshop-inspired shoes I ordered to some Indonesian shoemaker I found through friendster? Well I finally asked to cancel the order and get my money back.
I've never heard anyone so full of bullshits. Seriously. Here are some of her responses to my never ending emails regarding the ordered shoes.
June: Your shoes will be ready in about 2 -3 weeks.
July: Still in the making.
August: Forgot to contact her
September: We haven't had time to make your shoes as we have so many orders coming in. (Really? I thought they were already in the making?)
October: Emailed her but no reply
November: Sorry for not reaching you before. Somebody hacked my friendster account so I lost all my customers' details. Can you send me your address once again? The shoes are ready, but I'll send it to you as soon as I return from my vacation. (Again...REALLY???)
December: I'll be sending you the shoes this week. Do accept them as your birthday gift from me. (In other words, I wasn't required to pay the remaining 50%. How sweet.)
January: I'm truly sorry. For all this time I thought the shoes have been delivered to you already. Turns out my friend hasn't send them and the shoes are still at her place. But anyway, I understand your concern. I'll transfer back your money.
And I bet her transferring me the money will take another 8 months I suppose?

ReplyDeletebetter becareful next time esp to online store at friendster that makes shoes and such cause i've experienced myself ordering some stuff that arrived very late n didn't really come in good condition!
ReplyDeleteanyway, nice to meet you!

ReplyDeletei've experienced myself ordering a wallet..
hope u get your money back soon...
love love..
At least now other people have been warned not to buy shoes from this clearly ridiculous business.
ReplyDeleteHope
xx
p.s. Good luck on your refund.
oh man! what a hassle :(
ReplyDeletesince you posted about them i was looking forward to see the result, I'd never really heard of getting tailor-made shoes, it sounded so exciting!
hope she works something out for you..
oh my i know what you are tlkaing about.
ReplyDeletei hate when that stuff like that leggs.
hahahaha ((:
AHHH that is rediculous.
ReplyDeleteYou need to appear at her door assasin styles and pop some lead in her laptop or something.
An eye for an eye makes the whole world satisfied
it sucks I know, but it happens quite often!
ReplyDeletebtw hey! I was curious about your previous posts, so I browsed and read EVERY posts you have written! from the very first post on march 2007 haha :D
I'm sooooo in love with you!! you do really have a darn great sense of style! keep it up and don't stop to amuse me and all the loyal readers =)
wow, seriously?! tat's pretty long time. hmm
ReplyDeletethanks for the consolation, all...appreciate it so much :)
ReplyDeletejeje leiper palermo: thanks a lot for the info!! will check it out :)
phanie: iya, ngeselin yaa hohohohooh
nyun.yuni: iya, gak jelas gitu orangnya...bete
chekka cuomova: really? wow...thanks a lot dear <3
jeezzz
ReplyDeletethat sucks
i feel horribly for you. they should just send you the money with a pair of free shoes.
Why doesn't she just give you the shoes if they are ready?
ReplyDeleteShit, that's crazy!
ReplyDeleteI think best is not to contact each other through friendster or facebook but through emails instead. Make it official and the seller should have a proper website to sell their stuff.
I think this girl you dealt with is too new with the business and really need to find a REAL business partner.
Learn, people learn! Don't disappoint others like that! haih.
Sabar ya neng Diana....... :)
wow... that is sad.. i'm sorry to hear that.. jadi takut bli online stuff d friendster (which i'm doing now) i hope it doesn't comes bad.. i'll cursed that seller!!
ReplyDeletehope you get your money back!
ReplyDeletei've experienced the same thing.. ordered clothes trus lamaaa abis sampe berbulan",, (untungnya sih gag sampe 8 bulan hehe) sabar ya kak buat refund nya :)
ReplyDeletehummm.. kayaknya gue tau nih oknumnya.. hehehe.. *beberapa hari yg lalu liat message lo di shoutbox dia.. iya bukan? *maap kalo salah tebak hihihih
ReplyDeletesabar ya dii.. mudah2an cepet beres deh..
ohh that's awful! hope it wont take another 8 months .. :)
ReplyDeletehmmm.. namanya shop princess atau princess shop kah? soalnya pernah bikin di situ juga dan ternyata dia yang ilegal dan nge-hack fs orang! sebel banget! soalnya sepatu nyampe ke rumah, tapi dari nama toko yang beda.. aneh gila2an..
ReplyDeletethanks for all the input, guys...happily i got my money back in 2 days...yay!!
ReplyDeletedevishanty: hehehhe...yup, that's her hohooh....tapi jgn sampe pengalaman buruk gue ini bikin orang2 jadi gak mau mesen ke dia juga sih...siapa tau cuman gue aja yg lagi apes...ya kan? thanks yaaa :)
ast: nope...it ain't that one..glad u had the shoes though :)
dapet sih dapetttt..
ReplyDeletetapi dua2nya kaki KIRI smuaaa!
hebat!
jadi agak sangat kapok bikin custom shoes di ol shop lokal ):
ReplyDeleteemang iya di, shoemaker di FS tuh pd bullshit semua, nih ya aq kasi tau... mungkin klo km g mau ksh tau, tp aq mau, biar pd hati2 : Little Olitea; Footy Chic; Miss Chic.
ReplyDeleteproblem nya sama jg, blgnya bs2, nanti dikasih tau lg kpn bs dibuatin, tp aq tunggu2, udh gtu aja, g ada kbrnya lg. sm persis, mestinya km ksh tau aja Di, atau laporin polisi, itu kan udh penipuan namanya. biar dia jera donk.
