Announcement

The current management behind the FT team is different now.
U all may be wondering why did we switch from BoF to FT, here's several reasons.

1. the layout in FT is so much easier and organized. (we can't seem to find a good layout for BoF)
2. FT already have its own logo, and most people have already linked FT.

Do note that we have ammended the notes at the sidebar etc. ya.

Seller 58

Dearest Fashion Truth,

I'm an online blog owner and I'd like to share with you regarding an encounter with this client of mine.Thinking of it makes me really frustrated. Well, here goes:

It was a couple of days ago, where I had to meet up with this client(whose identity we shall not reveal due to ethical reasons...but blogshop owners who are interested to know who it is can ask me and i can e mail you the persons name privately). Anyway, so we met up in the specified location as planned.However about an hour before the time that we arranged, she text messaged me to ask if we could meet earlier. So we had to adjust our timing to hers since customer service is one of our priority. She requested for a pair of tights and was also contemplating on a pvc leggings. Hence we brought that extra pvc leggings just in case. At the time of the meet, I asked her again if she wanted the pvc leggings and she said no. Well, here's where the story really begins. I made a silly mistake by accidently leaving the pvc tights in there. So we departed the scene and moments later, it hit me that i had made a folly. Bugger. I know.. I know.. I'm partly responsible for this.. and i won't push my responsibilities aside. But what i'm trying to get at here is to highlight a question of conscience with customers that u might encounter. So I texted her immediately, asking her if I could get the pvc leggings back from her since we only just departed.I waited...and waited.. no reply. So okay, I thought maybe she's busy with something. This went on towards the night and i tried calling again. No answer. I texted her a couple of times, for the next few days, and well, i guess I dont have to say where that ended. Anyway, that got me thinking....who in their right mind would actually throw away their morality for a mere Rm28 worth of item? Does that mean you could actually buy someone's morality for just that small amount? Right now the only consolement is the paradox of it all, who between us really loses the most?
We'd like to hear opinions from other blogshop owners and their takes on this issue. Thanx for posting this up FT...really appreciate it =)
xoxo

similar situation encountered before. But it was a buyer who requested us to mail out the item asap as she need it urgently. Then she claimed her office boy had banked in on her behalf :/

ooooohhhhhh................ she's not a honest person y'all....dats explain it.
why dont you just post up her name? :) or tell her in the sms say that if she didnt explain why she couldnt return the pvc leggings, you will posted her name up in FT.

I just think that if i was in her place, i would immediately return dat leggings cos it doesnt feel nice to keep something that doesnt belong to me 'legally'. :) I guess most people would do the same.

Hence her attitude of 'running away' is just another 'kind way of stealing' :). So, no excuse! just post her name up :) heheee

ka mon said...

how could your customer be so dishonest?she should return you that when she didn't pay for the pvc leggings right?and the worst part is,she doesnt pick up your call.doesnt she feel guilty afterall?Ugh~people nowadays are scary~especially people like that~

i do feel sorry for you dear,but take it as a lesson lorr~. =( I am a seller too, so far,I have not met any customer like that before.Hopefully I wont. =) oh,if you dont mind,can you give me the name of the client of urs just in case I meet her someday in the near future and put on my alert.

thanks!!

Once , i had left my house key and loose powder in the paper bag and totally din realized , luckily the customer call me back and we meet up at another spot to return my things. She is so nice =D If u dun mind , pls let me know who she is ya clothesery@gmail.com

Dwotter said...

Hmm, that's just very dishonest of her. Alot of buyers like to point out that sellers are dishonest, but this proves that there are buyers out there too who are completely dishonest and void of morality.
But i guess it's also partly your fault for forgetting about your item, so i doubt there's anything you can do about it now. :(
Do be more careful in future dear.

It's just your unlucky day and her lucky day.

Babe, if you want to post her name post her full name so that sellers won't suspect the wrong person. Or better yet. Post her number, but don't post it in full. (You don't want to stoop to her level do you?) Just post it in this format 012-34567XX so that sellers will be more aware of this person without strangers harassing her over a RM28 legging.

hectic sunday said...

oh dear! dats terrible of d buyer!
u should seriously post up her name babe..coz wateva it is..doesnt matter if its ur mistake or not.. she should b honest. not answerin ur calls or replyin ur msgs..dats too much d! there goes her pride down d drain.

sensualseductionz said...

Hie Feon and A!ya...i'm afraid i cnt post up her name and contact details publicly cz i dnt feel that it's right...my intention of writting to FT is jst to share my experience to other blogshop owners so that they dnt make silly mistakes like this as what i've done...which is why blogshop owners can drop their emails here if they want to know who it is..and i'll get back to them personally

sensualseductionz said...

Hie Hectic Sunday...This customer is an avid online shopper...please drop your e mail if you want details on this client...i'll get back to you personally k..=)

TenderBlush said...

i want her name too please :)


unitenderblush@gmail.com


thanks love.


and so so so sorry to hear about that... like cher said, thr are JUST ppl like that in this world.. trying to take advantage on other ppl...

msquirk said...

Oh bummer.. such people do exist eh?

Come to think of it, shouldn't be the price that she sucks on the 'profit' but anything that's free. Just that your customer was bold enough NOT to return the leggings moments after parting.

What she doesn't know is, it's a small world ;)

Fret not, her time will come!

Najwa Z said...

oh my gosh.. i didn't know there are people like that! don't tell me she didn't check the item once she walked away from you. its pitiful if you really thought about it. no sense of honesty and morality.

kudos to you for being very calm and collected about it :)

Ms. Anonymous said...

thats really unethical of her. i've once left my personal items in the bag too :P it was fortunate that my customer noticed it and returned it to me after departing from her bout 5 minutes.

may i know her name too? just incase :)

Hearts Fashion said...

Hi dear

The customer is bit too much. Some customer which i encountered that havent pay postage fee and ask me post to her. After post the parcel, she refused pay postage charges.

Pls mail me her details ya.
Thanks
xoxo

miss ocd said...

Impluse Grabber said...

ooh. i want her details too! just in case :/

Sorry for your loss. it's a shame that some people can just throw their morality away for a mere RM28.

Twilight pink said...
