Hi FT.

I'm gonna make this short and sweet. I'm very laid-back and I don't mind if the sellers reply late nor do I bargain with sellers because I totally understand that some sellers have already offered the best price for us buyers. If I see something that I like but I find it too expensive, I'll just move onto the next blog shop. However, I've came across 2 pre-loved blog shops with (in my opinion) disappointing behaviors.

Pre-Loved Blogshop #1

I inquired about a dress on May 23rd, she replied back on May 25th. (I understand that she may not be in front of the computer all the time to promptly respond). I asked another question on the 25th and she replied on the 26th and I confirmed on the 26th itself that I wanted the dress like below;

"Alrighty. I'll take it. Send me the price quotation and account details. Postage is via Pos Express. (:

{My details; name, address and so on}

Btw, do you have a Maybank account? If so, I can make payment faster through Maybank2u. (:"

I asked her because it was stated on her blog that she has a Public Bank account.

She didn't reply, until a week later where I got an e-mail from her saying the dress was already sold. :/ She didn't give me her account details so if she's gonna give me the "first come first serve basis" excuse, it's not fair on my half. Perhaps she was lazy to deal with me because I couldn't make fast payment to her Public Bank account?

Plus, if she took about a week to reply (she might have not come online in that duration), how could she have sold the dress? And no, there's no phone number on her blog for anyone else to contact. Unless, she sold it to a friend of hers. Then I take back what I said.

Pre-Loved Blogshop #2

I inquired about a pair of shoes, she never did reply and when I checked yesterday it was already sold.

I would have really appreciate it if she had the courtesy of letting me know that the shoes have already been sold, even if I could check myself. Replying to one e-mail is not that difficult right? A short "I'm sorry it's sold" will do.

-------------------------------------------------

I purposely did not put in their blog shop names as I do not want to give them free publicity on FT and it's nothing THAT serious, just a little complaint.

I know that pre-loved blog shops' main purpose is getting rid of their junks and it's nothing permanent. But come on, be more courteous.
