My First Innocent World order ^_^

I've ordered from BTSSB online before...& did Meta and Closetchild, but I've always wanted to order from Innocent World @ least ONCE...just to see how it went...& unfortunately, because of the timing, I have to say i'm half/half on my ordering experience :/

Here's how the transaction went...& keep in mind I did mine during their Summer Sale...which could be why things went wrong...sigh...

July 10: Start of sale, items posted on site

July 11: Placed order.

and then...they were "on holiday" so no confirmation would be sent until after...but almost a week later, STILL nothing :/

July 19: I sent an email inquiring about my order.

They IMMEDIATELY replied saying that they were swamped (understandable) & that one of my items was sold out...sigh...shucks... Then, after they sent me an invoice for the in-stock items, they asked if I wanted to replace the one i couldn't get with the same print, but different color, so I said YES & replied right away to the email.

July 23: Sent new email asking if they got my reply email/added on item...

July 24: Decided to pay first invoice without extra item (couldn't wait any longer since i like to keep track of my purchases)

July 31: I get an email saying that their servers crashed around the 26th & they lost some invoices...asked if i STILL wanted to add on my item & they'll send a new invoice with the difference for shipping...which i decided yes...since i did STILL really want the item even if it wasn't the color i originally wanted ;)....but...i spent all my spending money on my bus pass, other stuff...so i waited until the deadline to pay...

Aug 7: (after payday), FINALLY paid the rest of the IW order ^_^

Aug 9: Order shipped out

Aug 14: (Today): Received package & now i'm sooooo glad i bought through them...even though at first it was such a pain...sigh...

 Yay!Another IW bag ^_^ I think i'll give this to my GO buddy since I already have one XD

 SOOOO glad I ordered...this stuff is BEAUTIFUL ^_^

 The colors on the socks are way different, but still workable ;)

 And this FABRIC is not plain cotton...it's super thin & delicate...maybe polyester? & there's a brocade design within in the print ;D

 THIS was the item that was sold out in the color i originally wanted, Sax...but the Beige is super pretty too...now i'm glad i re-added it...totally worth it XD

And the socks are super stretchy (even over my big calves) & they fit me like how they do the Lolita models...over the knee & almost thigh high...but they won't roll down...perfect XD

 

BUT! the main reason for buying the JSK was to have something to match my new Blue VM~like shoes that i HAD to have ;P  Which it does perfectly ^_^  &...most importantly, the JSK FITS XD  I debated forever about getting the long version & now i'm glad i did...it has such a grown-up feel to it...even though there are Teddy Bears on the print XD

Overall, the beginning was rough, but i'm SUPER HAPPY with my purchases & maybe i'll order from them again....just not during a sale ;P 

Also, I just found a lovely note thanking me for my order...i always love the small notes...& extra stuff...like the free hanger i got for my jsk ^^
