/cgl/ is a board for the following:

• Cosplay
• Lolita
• J-fashion
• Conventions & gatherings
• Sewing & prop-making
• Craftsmanship tools/materials & tutorials
• LARPing
• Discussing accessories such as wigs/circle lenses/prosthetics/makeup (These must be within the context of the board-related topics listed above; weight loss threads should be kept in /fit/, beauty and fashion generals should be kept in /fa/)

Our board rules are simple:

• Thread content must be related to one of the categories covered in the list above. Off-topic threads and replies will be deleted.
• Singling people out maliciously is not tolerated and will result in a ban. 4chan is not your personal army. The singling out rule applies to vendetta threads and replies being made to attack a specific person, as well as predatory behavior like doxing. Discussing an individual in general isn't against the rules as long as it's done within context of cosplay/lolita/j-fashion.

nayrt, and yes that's basically it. The police is after big brand replicas (Nike, LV, Balenciaga), and those replica products are what they mean when they say "reps". They've seized the PandaBuy warehouse and they're obviously not just going to blindly trust whatever it says on the packages so they're going to look into everything. During this investigation the packages are all stuck there and PB won't let you proceed with international shipping. There's no guarantee that your orders stuck in the warehouse will eventually be released so that you can get it mailed to you, but let's just hope things will get back to normal and everyone will be able to get their stuff.

WeGoBuy is undergoing the same thing.

Some general recommendations regardless whether you buy reps or not
-don't buy reps anywhere or with any SS. Most sellers won't even send it to SS right now
-there's been talk that other SS can come under investigation and there will be more warehouse raids
-if an order isn't time sensitive please hold off on ordering it for another month at least
-don't put more money in your SS account at the moment
-if you have anything in your SS warehouse or currently being shipped to your SS warehouse it's recommended to ship it to your address asap

neither bought lolita reps nor these big brand reps at all, I used pandabuy for legit chinese brands. My friend is the one getting fucked by proxy since we had a split haul and she spent the most. She just wanted an itabag and stuff while I just got very small stuff and I offered my coupons and stuff to ship at a good price. Goddamn, right after the anniversary discounts
>>
>>10910429
here you go bb. that store has a lot in general, but just note most if not all of their products are dreamv or lizlisa designs(mostly factory "extras" since it's all made there and the style is less popular now so a lot of stuff is sold out.

Is there an SS with cheap shipping options like Aliexpress has with Caninao? I need to ship small, lightweight stuff and the chink shipping prices are ridiculous. With bigger more important stuff I'm like ok, considering what I'm getting I can eat the shipping and it's still reasonable.

But with small time stuff the chinkshit becomes outrageous. Sadly what I need isn't in Alishit, else I'd take the $3 Caninao shipping which works as well as all the other shippings.

But look at this: 200 fucking grams with the chinks. Singapore: $20. EMS: $31 Chinese Air: $48. Lol, lmao even. Now the japs with their glorious Japan Post: $5.25

It's ridiculous. It's highway robbery. And how do the japs ship THAT cheap? Does the Japan Post discovered teleportation or something?

Anyway, anything?

>My interest in anime cons was reborn when local cons hosted in my local mall.
>When the local mall no longer hosts any cons, I've decided to learn to travel on foot and use public transportation to go to the cons, from going to the malls in my city to state-to-state travel, relying on Google Maps to show the way.

It's quite tense given the danger and being in unfamilar territory but it's fun.

Did this drive almost two years ago. It was, as the kids might say, "kino". It was also agreed I'd split 50% of the drive with another guy and it ended up being more like 75% me, 25% him. I'm undecided if that helped or hindered

that's because it's popular with chinese lolitas. taobao brands put them on a lot of stuff because it looks like the ribbons on hanfu. i personally don't like the ribbons like that, it'll look better as just bows.

Yes because a man calling out another man is sure to make women want to fuck him. Why do you dipshits think being nice to a woman makes her want to fuck you? People like you are why eugenics are a good idea.

No. You need the basic competence from IRL

At least you tried for more subtly this time but in all honesty I don't think it's gonna save you either. Hell with it. I'll engage while the chance is still there
