I haven’t closed it yet. It’s still under consideration, so yes, it’s open for now. :)
deadmangalaxydays said: omgsh its sooo pretty! Infinite regrets on not reserving this series. I’m curious to see the mint since it is one of my favorite colors *_*
They are doing a second round of reserves so you still have a chance to get it. The mint is gooorgeous!
There’s only one person requesting it on their wishlist at the moment. Some others wanted to add it, but it’s already virtually impossible to get as it is. >.< Haha, I’m afraid the only way you’re likely to get it is via a very expensive auction, sorry! >.< Even in CC, they usually only come out at campaigns, and CC campaigns are the lolita version of battle royale. ;_;
No, I’m afraid not. If that were the case, you’d need to make a wishlist/request the long-term lookout service.
I keep all the items online and people can upload whatever they want me to search for. So, for example if you’re looking for a DDC JSK you can upload that. I check the wishlists regularly and memorize the items. Then I alert people when I spot those items in store and can even buy them immediately if the customer has good feedback. Of course there’s no guarantee of getting your item, especially rare ones, but it can increase chances. I also regularly check the CC blogs and browse auction sites.
I’m considering taking the service down indefinitely soon though since I have a lot to look out for right now. :)
It really is gorgeous. I can’t wait to see the coords either…and to make my own. xD
Most definitely. ;)
Hahaha! xD I’m sooo sorry! Worst part is, I’m going into Closet Child again today. (O_O) Dun dun dun!!
To be honest, I thought I would too. I was looking into working part-time again depending on the effect it would have. It’s good news for me, but bad news for customers abroad. :( I thought it was very odd that they made it even more difficult for English speakers. The only reason I can come up with is that they made some kind of deal with Tenso which will profit them more than selling directly. Because of that, I doubt they will fix it. Maybe if a lot of English-speaking customers complain there’s a chance in future. :/
Is this from the newsletter? xD Haha, yes Vampire Forest is in Closet Child. I’m sorry for the torture. Believe me, I know how you feel. It’s my feeling every time I go shopping! Aaah! >.<
Hello, for the re-release you can try through an SS for the online reserve. ^^ However, the physical stores are also allowing people to try and enter the reservation through them. It’s not guaranteed, but it should hopefully increase chances. The stores tend to have a better chance of getting online releases/have certain allocations as far as I know. Basically, I would recommend using an SS to enter the reserve at a physical stores. There’s no 100% guarantee of getting it, but it’s definitely your best chance. Since it’s a re-release I have spots free. If you’d like me to try and get something just email me at contact@tokyopirates.com and I can give you quotes for both online and in-store reservations.
Hello ^^ It depends on how new and in-demand the item is. Although I haven’t dealt with Metamorphose as much directly, if they operate similarly to the other lolita businesses then yes, they’ll often have newer items in-store that are sold out online. The online websites usually have a different inventory than the physical stores since they operate separately for the most part. Popular items almost always sell out online first and take a bit longer to sell out in-store. If you’d like me to put in a call and check, just email me at contact@tokyopirates.com with your request. ^^
Hello! I’m afraid it’s not one I’ve come across yet, sorry! :(
Hi! ^^ Absolutely no idea, I’m afraid. If I were to hazard a guess, I would say…26th April or 3rd March. I reckon Sweetie Violet is coming next week if they get the site up and running by then, if not then probably the week after. After that maybe we’ll have Berry Garden and later Crystal Dream Carnival. These are just guesses though backed up by absolutely nothing, so don’t quote me on it. ;)
Hello :) Hmm, it depends on the bag’s condition/popularity, etc. but I’d estimate regular bags anywhere from 3,800 - 6,800 yen. More popular ones tend to be 9,800 yen and even very popular ones are usually under 15,000 yen. ^^ A simple, black AP bag is pretty easy to come by, yes. :)
Hello ^^ There are plenty of older print headbows sold in Closet Child, but the popular ones (such as the ones you mentioned) are less common and if they appear, they get snapped up quickly. Usually it’s only unpopular old prints that I see. :(
Hello, sorry for the supeeerbly slow reply. (>.<) I don’t have to wake up super early since the stores open at 11 am. I usually get up at between 7-8am because that gives me a few hours to check urgent emails, last minute-changes and any items that have arrived in stores. Lately though I’ve been working later so it’s been hard to get up early. I’ve had a lot of orders (hence the lack of updates here, sorry!). Tonight though I’m pulling an all-nighter and gonna get on top of everything no matter what! :D I’ll be back in routine and full form in no time. ^^
