I'm interested!
But... I live in Italy, would it be a problem? Also, I'm seriously considering ordering a pair of RHS (the Lolita Lola ones, in leather and wood)... would it be ok? And do you have any idea at all of how much shipping them from the USA to Italy would be?
Thank you ^^

Hello there! Thank you for your interest.
I'm not sure whether she'll be able to pick up shoes because in general they're fairly bulky and heavy to bring back and to ship internationally. :'(

Thank you!
I've just noticed that my size is currently out of stock anyway, so nevermind ^^'

I'd still like to get something anyway, but google translate isn't working for me and I'm unable to see which items from my wishlist are custom made and which ones are ready to ship D=
Also, if I give you the list of what I'm interested in getting, would you be able to give me a roughly estimate of shipping costs?

Yes, I could do that!
If Google Translate still isn't working for you I can take a look at the items you want and see which ones are and aren't custom made. :-)

so are we saving on shipping or some other part of the typical Taobao shopping service? I ask because all the popular shopping services for Tao bao charge 10 % or less, but you're charging 15% and saying going though you would be cheaper, so I'm a little confused.

Not the OP, but... zitronecs June 17 2011, 15:40:57 UTC
you're getting domestic shipping instead of international shipping. Trust me, it's a good deal.

I see. It was the language that was a little off. She was saying that the other shopping services themselves were more expensive, but I was thinking the discount would have to come from just the shipping. In that case, the shipping discount would overshadow the increase in Shopping service fee if your're in the US. Sigh, I wish I'd known about this before joining a local GO. Oh well.

This is so kind of you to do! Just out of curiosity, would you also be willing to do local pick up for those of us also in the Bay Area?

Yes, that'd actually be great so both of us save on shipping time!
Let me know if you're still interested. :-)

That's fantastic! Yes I am still interested. I will get my form to you by tomorrow night. Thank your mom for doing this!

Oh, and one more question before I send in my forms, is there a limit to how much we can get? Essentially I'd like to get 2 dresses and a bunch of small items, will this be too much packing-wise?

So, I'm assuming custom sized items are not do-able?

What is the plan if something shows up later than when your mom is leaving? (It seems like she is only going to be there a week or so?)

Unfortunately, custom orders can't be accepted at the moment because of the time it takes to manufacture them.

Because she'll be there in about 2 weeks from now, I'm assuming that's enough time for domestic shipping in China. But if worse comes to worst, and items don't make it in time, my dad is in turn going back to China in early July and can hopefully pick them up from my aunt.
