Seriously, if you can't be bothered to read a thread, don't bother responding to it.

Alright, time for the review. The lippie was shipped out on the 28th, which isn't bad considering I ordered it the 24th. For some bizzare reason it wound up in Honalulu from Georgia until 1am yesterday morning in Boise, Idaho. I recieved it this morning. It was new, and pretty much exactly as the seller described. Ecrater is basically an Ebay or Amazon type of place, but I was pleased with the seller and the variety of random things you can find on the site. I like the package tracking options. 4 out of 5, only because it was difficult to tell where the seller was located and estimated shipping and receipt dates.

I feel bad, I was whining too much in my last post on this thread
but I would appreciate some help. If there are any tall girls on this forum who have had success with their online purchases I would love to know, I'm running out of untattered pants.

This is not the thread for that.

Oops sorry, I got confused. Silly me, there's two threads about online stores.

Sorry, I'm new and I don't know my way around yet.

I know Retroscope has been reviewed before but here's my opinion and my experience:

URL: http://www.retroscopefashions.com/lolita.html
Items ordered: long satin black bustle skirt with pannier, gothic dolly mini bustle skirt with pannier, and gothic opera jacket.
Time to recieve: Around 3 days, but my state's next door to Nevada.
Review: The clothes were gorgeous. They fit me wonderfully, but I think their measurements for sizes might be slightly off. According to their size charts, I should have been able to wear smalls, but I went with my gut and ordered mediums and these fit pretty closely. The jacket was comfortable around my shoulders but it is a little tight around the neck if I try to button it up. The clothes were well sewn and looked beautiful and adorable on.
I give Retroscope 5/5 and I'll be ordering from them again as soon as I can donate some more organs to do so....

i work for an online store (ROCKWORLDEAST) that is good about sending orders out and keeping in contact with the customers, so all these horror stories, really are, well, horrifying!

I recently placed an order with The Order of Initiative. They are a UK based company and in their own words they are "Specialists in D&D and Star Wars miniatures, Gothic Jewellery and Clothing". They have a huge range of products and there should be something for everyone. All major credit/debit cards are accepted, as is paypal. I can't see any info about shipping outside the UK, sadly, so I don't know if they do or not (it maybe that international orders need to be inquired about by email).

I ordered two items from them, the Alchemy Gothic Crystal Bat Clip and the Alchemy Gothic Carfax Ring.

I placed the order on Saturday 13th February, after registering and receiving a 10% discount (which was nice though it's only for the first three days after you register, after that the price goes back up)... I got a confirmation email straight away, and the following day another informing me that my goods had been dispatched (orders can also be tracked through your account at the site). Both items arrived this morning! Now that's fast... both items were neatly packed in a sturdy box, that was well sealed and clearly labelled.

The items are exactly as they appear on the site (sometimes pictures and the real thing look nothing remotely alike) and I'm really pleased. The bat clip is smaller than I though it would be, but I still love it, and being smaller in size it seems to be more securely fixed in my hair (sometimes clips can be too big for me as my hair is quite fine, although I have a lot of it- and they have a habit of slipping out of my hair... this one is very secure and hasn't moved since I put it in about five hours ago ). The ring has instantly become my favourite piece of jewellery and (apart from when I go to bed) I doubt I shall take it off for ages... I ordered a size W and it fits really well - my finger can fluctuate between a U and an X depending on my temperature (the hotter I am the bigger my fingers get) but it fits and is easy to get on and off again regardless of my freakish swelling fingers, lol. The band of the ring is smooth on the inside so water is not going to sit under it (which is something that I hate!). It's also very well made and chunky-feeling, plus has an aged look that I love.

I would rate them 5/5 and I will definitely be ordering from them in the future

M*A*C Cosmetics

Every item I've bought from MAC is just awesome(2 lippies last year and eyeliner this year)!

Item: Fluidline.

I LOVE this eyeliner! I just worked out for almost 2 hours and it hardly smudged! If you sign up to become a registered customer they send you coupons codes for free shipping sometimes. They are a cruelty-free company, as well.

New Rock Boots

Item: These!

Bought the boots last year, but I don't recall reviewing the store. New Rock makes a damn great boot!

Doctored Locks

item: Toyokalon

Always a great company to do business with, though their shipping to other countries is a bit high from what I've heard.

Those boots are totally amazing, Wolfmammy... I would love to be able to wear that kind of thing, but sadly my legs are too fat and I can't get them on

I really do have to start wearing more make-up, I'm just so very lazy

Has anyone checked out GothAuctions.com? I know...it isn't really a store, but I happened upon it, and have been checking out what people are putting up for auction. I have no issue with used clothing!

Store: Gloomth

Alright, I'm sorry to say but I will never order from Gloomth again. I placed an order with them around January 5th, and was told with the delays that I would see it in about 8 weeks. Well it's already the end of March, and my order hasn't even made it to the "in progress" stage! While I understand busy times and I'm a fairly patient person with things I'm excited about, 8 weeks is an awful long time for something to be sitting in pieces waiting to be sewn. I contacted them and was told everything was "fine"...all I can assume is a bunch of a-holes who ordered after me keep doing the rush-production thing. I'll post a full review of the product if I ever actually get it...*grumble*

Store: Divatreats.com
Ordered: plain black Pleaser heels
Rating: 1/5
I have ordered from them before, and i guess I just got lucky. This time, they sent me the entirely wrong pair of shoes. They won't answer phone calls or e-mails. I opened a dispute with them on paypal AND filed a claim on the Better Business Bureau. They wouldn't respond to anything. Paypal finally issued me a refund (thank god). DON'T ORDER FROM THEM. The only reason I gave them a one is because I have ordered from them before with no problems. I wouldn't take any chances, though.

I have just tried out this new cosmetics line. It is amazing .....It has this 120 color palette , with all these amazing bright colors. They also have dark colors that are perfect for that dark effect as well as the smokey eye effect . It fits with every outfit that i wear, as well as my mood. It is so convenient and it is so cheap. I loved it , and i think everyone should try it . Everyone who wants to try it, should go on there website and check out their amazing colors. Bhcosmetics.com.

I love there online make-up line!!!!!
