Reader 215

Hello babes reading,

Well I am Reader 205, click to read my story of these marvellous sellers :)

I'm back here again, to inform you guys that I have successfully received all my items from all 5 sellers mentioned above, and I love all my items !

I would also like to share my personal experience with Ablinc. blogshop.

As mentioned in the previous post, decided to shop with her, despite all those rumours posted in the chatbox and posts by other buyers, because I thought that it'd only be fair if I judge her by myself, when I deal with her. and although the experience was kind of a roller coaster experience, the outcome was rewarding, and here's why I think we should have more sellers adapting her patience and understanding attitude. :)

Kindly read the emails carefully, and take note of my "mengada" attitude (paiseh.) this is gonna be long so bear with me !

Me:

Hi babe,
I banked in another RM 100 today
I would like to ask, since I'm buying 3 items from you, is it possible to get a discount of any sort
Because I'm still paying through my nose for my bills and rentals and stuff, saving in any way is good for me :) But if it's not possible, it's okay then, thank you.

Ablinc :

Hey babe!
i've been waiting for an email from u!!

i sorta lost all my emails,contacts etc on my gmail+hotmail, not sure whether its a virus! But babe, i have restocked the hermes for you in light yellow, and awaiting from my supplier for the gucci wristlet which is arriving in May,i think cause she's restocking it.. =)

But the Juicy Couture only left in purple/pink, i have another design though, will be posting it up soon okies? Dont worry dear, you'll be getting free postage-which will save u lots! XD

Me:

ah..
Miss Ablinc,
I'm sorry but if that's the case, I don't think I can buy your items anymore.
I really appreciate you waiting and restocking for me despite my minimal deposit, but here's why I can't buy from you anymore.
I only agreed to buy from you because you said that I would receive the stock immediately.

>>>>> And i restock tml, send out on Saturday,
>>>>> so u will receive it on Monday, latest Tues, ok?

but I can't afford to wait, because I am leaving for Australia in a couple of days, and I'll be gone for one month. I thought that since the stock would arrive so fast, I'd pay RM 100 today and the remaining tmr. then maybe I'll pick them up from you immediately since they should have already arrived. plus, the juicy bag, no more stock for the design i requested for, so I don't really want to settle for 2nd choice.

I really, really realy appreaciate you helping me and waiting for me and everything, I really do :)
And I really mean what I posted on FT, I think you're genuinely nice.
But I hope you can understand my plight here, I am honestly sorry for causing you so much trouble monetary wise

Ablinc :

Babe, you mean the hermes plus the wristlet you don want anymore?

I have a ready stock wristlet on hand actually, its for my regular customer,

but she can only make payment for her items next month.. So actually you can have it first.. =) Cause i already restocked the hermes bag.. i would understand if you dont get the Juicy bag dear.. but at least get the hermes and/if with the wristlet? XD

Me :

Yes, and I'm sorry I didn't bring this up earlier, I agree that it's my bad as well, but I won't be around, Ms Ablinc..
The bag isn't even here yet, plus postage delay ?
and why did you say that if you restocked on that day, I would be able to receive latest 4 days later ?
I thought it was ready stock :S

Ablinc :

No no dear, i have the Hermes+Gucci Writlet for you ready stock. =)

Cause one of my regulars, have placed order with me, but she is willing to

wait till next month.. so i can give u hers one.. =p
So is ok if you dont wan the Juicy, but the hermes+Gucci wristlet? hehe..

So until here, I was kind of reluctant to buy already. Because I was under a time constrain, and disappointed that it wasn't ready stock, as promised. And I had already banked in the next payment promised to her, by her obliging means. And I wondered what would have happened if I hasn't contacted her, would I have never gotten any notifications back ? But she explained to me that her contacts were lost, and I understand that. Still, all this turned me off buying already. So I asked her, what were the consequences if I should decline to buy those items anymore?


Ablinc :

Babe as much as i'd like to let you backout, i really cant, because you told me you wanted those 3 items badly.. i restocked for you those that i could.. but you cant just backout when i cant restock 1.. hope you understand dear..
Will you at least take the Hermes bag? =)
Trying as best i can to help you drop the weight..

After considering, I decided it wouldn't be fair to her, and besides, she has tried her best to help me.

Me :

Okay babe, I'll take the Bag and the Gucci wristlet then.. :)
I'm so sorry for all the trouble then.
But since I'm only taking 2 items, I won't be asking for a discount, won't be fair to you as well.
When will you be able to post them out babes ?

Ablinc :

Its ok la dear.. =) I understand ur position, really trying my best to help out.. =)

Your total now is RM59+RM62=RM121

You banked in RM125 total right? So i will bank in RM4 for your change dear.. hehe.

Give me your acc details yea? Thanks!

I will post out your item today.. =)

I was satisfied. I replied her saying thank you and that I was grateful for her help etc.
And then she replies with this message;

Ablinc :

Hehe me too dear! XD Btw, the charms for the gucci wristlet is pink, is that ok for u?

Me :

.....HUH ??? How could the charms be pink, I ordered it red. I didn't know anything yet then, so I replied saying that I'd like the red one please, as shown in the picture.

Ablinc :

Oh girl, this is my fault then.. =(

I just checked the wristlet just now, its pink, not red..

I'd rather not send you smtg you didnt order babe~

Okies? I will refund you RM4+RM59 ks?

Dont worry, i'll give you free postage fr all the trouble i gave you~

Hope that helps dear

Me :

Man, are you serious ?
This is kind of a problem in that case.
did you preorder the red one for me ?

She replied that yes, she's serious and that she did preorder the red one for me.
By then, I was already kinda pissed off and disappointed. Like, what the hell, couldn't she have just told me everything at one go instead of giving it to me bit by bit like this ?
So under an annoyed and upset mood, I fired off this reply to her.

Me :

Babe, this is getting increasingly frustrating, everytime I want to confirm something, something else comes up.

How could you have mixed up the colours of the item that I ordered ? And honestly, I don't think you got the colours wrong, I think you got the red wristlet, but with pink charms.
Otherwise, why else would you ask me this;

"Btw, the charms for the gucci wristlet is pink, is that ok for u?"

If you initially thought that my order was the pink one, you wouldn't have asked, would you ?
I really only do have 2 days left, 1, excluding today. I have to fly off to Australia very soon already. I honestly thought that you were just misunderstood, I wanted to judge your skills by myself. But it's disappointment after disappointment, it gets kind of hard to take in after awhile.

Perhaps you're a really nice person, and I, like anyone else, appreciates your kinda gestures and willingness to help me out after so much. But.. I don't know girl, I don't want to blow this out of proportion. Is there anything you can propose that would be fair to both parties, because right now, I just want to cancel and refund everything.

And I fully expected a rude and mean reply.
But her reply caught me off guard instead.

Ablinc :

Yea dear, cause the red wristlet got 2 colors-pink and red. =)
I ordered the one with the red charms for you, they're arriving some time next month,

i thought this would be ok for you since you would only be able to pay me everything next month, so i placed the order.

The disappointment after disappointment part i can understand, but the juicy bag and wristlet with red charms out of stock, that is totally out of my control, please understand that dear.. I wont want to cause any troubles with anyone k..

If you think all those stories on FT is true, thats up to you to think and believe, you also never told me that you would be leaving for Aussie before this if im not mistaken babe. Those "4 days span" that i emailed you earlier on was when i thought you could make immediate payment

and before i went t the supplier's place so i didnt know what was in stock and out of stock.

You arent the only one who didnt get the wristlet, i can give u the emails of my customers,

you can ask them personally, i told them the wristlet was out of stock and they are willing to wait till next month. I'm really trying my best to help you out, but you have to understand, if the items are out of stock, i cannot do anything.

As for the Hermes, i have already restocked it for you babe. I'm sorry you're so disappointed in my service, but i'm trying as best i can to be as of help to you. Hope you'll understand..

After she explained about the red wristlet with 2 diff types or charms, I suddenly understood how the misunderstanding took place. I wasn't aware that the red wristlet came with 2 coloured charms, I naturally assumed that the charms accompanied the wristlet's colour. I felt really bad afterwards because I replied in quite a rude manner, and she was patient through it all.

Me :

Sigh, I apologise for my harsh words, I was just really frustrated.
I hope I didn't hurt you or anything, I didn't mean to, words came out without thinking. Yeah well, if I chose to believe those words on FT, I wouldn't have bought from you at all. So its okay, we all deserve the benefit of the doubt sometimes.

Yeah I'll just take the bag then, It's alright about the wristlet.
Sorry about the minor blow up back there, really didnt want to make things difficult for anyone. And thanks for replying with such patience and understanding.

She replied back by saying that it's no problem, and understands how we girls can be sometimes, and proceeds to refund me my payment for the wristlet.

Are you dead yet, reading till here ? (;

Anyways, I just want to emphasise that I really admire her patience and understanding throughout this all. She earned my respect, and I daresay if you personally dealt with her too, instead of just judging her then slamming her in the chatbox, you might find that she's actually not a money grabbing Godzilla, she's actually very nice.

I'd also like to take this chance to APOLOGIZE to Ablinc. and say thank you many many many times. I appreciate all your help so far.

So here ends my very long post, I'm sorry to have taken up maybe about 5 minutes of your time ?

Thank you for reading, and thank you Fashion Truth for posting this up!
