The Amazon Spree 3

2009-01-03T02:18:00.007+08:00

Most people don't know what Amazon.com actually has - neither sounding like a fashion place nor too flashy and trendy. However, I'd like to bust that thought if you only thought Amazon sells books and Cds.

You can find a bunch of very reasonably priced fashion items from brands like ALDO, Adidas, Nine West, Anne Klein, DKNY, Steve Madden, Diesel, Roxy, Polo Ralph etc - you name it. Not just ladies, there are Mens & Kids too.

They are available in Shoes, Bags, Lingerie, Dresses, Tees, Shorts, Slippers, Accessories, Hats, Umbrellas - whatever!

I recently bought a pair of heels from Madden Girl which was 20+ USD (u sometimes need to search out the cheap prices from other merchants on the same page) not knowing that in Sg, the flats and sandles are SG 80 and above. Quite a steal I must say.

Then I tried some electronics too. Got a Sennheiser Headphones that were advertised this Christmas at SG 129. Seriously, they cost me 29 USD. When they arrived, i compared it to the ones in the local store - they're the same. Please beware of fakes tho.

In the spree were some books and CDs - the latter I wouldn't advise to buy unless they are 'used' or items sold from a 'non-amazon' merchant. Because Amazon shipped them in a box to me, without individually bubblewrapping it, causing some cracks on the cover. The 2nd hand CDs I bought however, came in indiv bubble packs and were perfect. They cost me 88cents.

You can get so much from Amazon - and people don't really know.

For starters, go with those that offer 'Free Super Saver Shipping' cos those prices include shipping, saving you the mental sums trouble.

For the rest of you seasoned spreers, my only advice is to start surfing early. Cos it will take you through the night into the next day.

Kid you not, its like the Mustafa of the USA over there.

oh and btw, not that i get paid for this, but ever since i started the first spree, its the first time i actually feel that i have FOUND A GOOD DEAL *yipee* and it would be so utterly wrong of me to keep it to myself! haha :)

A pair of 7.5 Heels for sale

2009-01-01T19:51:00.005+08:00

This is a pair of shoes which a spreer and cancelled last minute but I had already ordered.
I paid 32 USD for it, plus shipping, it costs Sgd 54.50
:( :( :( :(

Due to the height of the heel (5") and the size, I have had much difficulty finding a buyer for this pair of heels. However, its really quite nice for the whole dressy getup and for clubbing.

If you would like to have it, i'll let it go at cost price, Sgd 48 and if u need postage i'll absorb the cost too.

(desperate cry) *PLEASE HELP!*

PLeaaaase fwd if u know someone who might fit it! :) and better still, if you do, hurry let me know :)

many many thanks

Perpetual Kid Spree

2008-12-04T01:18:00.006+08:00

Introducing the new spree for December

site: Perpetual Kid Spree

this site sells practically everything that FredFlare had/has/will have at a slightly lower price. But not much of the handmade fashion items though.

Fred not, there are still some cute bags and purses.

Its an affiliate of FF and it will be the first spree from this site - just to see if things will be cheaper buying from here.

note: maybe u want to see what you like at http://www.fredflare.com first, then head to http://www.perpetualkid.com and check the price. good for you if its available at a cheaper price!

Spree details

Pls note that there may be a small top-up if the exchange rate is higher than expected.

The Amazon.com Spree

2008-11-16T01:58:00.006+08:00

(pls mail ur orders asap! slots filling fast)

After several requests, I have decided to try having a spree from amazon.com (america).

As there are so many things you could actually BUY from there that are practically cheaper, I figured ok, why not give it a shot. From fashion items, accessories, ang-moh branded shoes (which are actually cheaper), movies, books, pet supplies, household stuffs to your christmas shopping. Seems that amazon has things from everywhere.

(this Chooka boot cost only 39.95!)

Check out the stuff that are ON SALE and those that are ELIGIBLE FOR SUPER SAVER SHIPPING will have priority for the spree. (in fact, please try to get stuff that says FREE with Super Saver Shipping - else the additional shipping cost will be added into your cost)

Birks 29th Batch - Arrived

2008-04-19T04:41:00.008+08:00

its been quite some time since I've had such a neatly packed box and tightly squashed pairs inside the single shoeboxes. i must say, the betula and delmar synthetic sandals have been growing popularity these days.

maybe I shall talk a little bit more about them again.

these are the "Betula Energy" slippers, they have a thinner strap that holds the foot and is made entirely of 1 material called EVA. this material is super-lightweight (think a piece of foam) and is not only waterproof but also molds to your foot after long wearing.

SGD 29 nett

then there are the "Papillio Del Mar" Slippers which come in slightly more pastel colours as well as the basic tones. the strap of this sandal is less like typical flip-flopts, which feature the ends gradually becoming wider as it joins the sole. it is abit more pointy and shapes towards the big toe, as opposed to betula's evenly rounded toe shape. My feel is that this style in the larger sizes look good on guys. Also, the smalles size begins with 35/36 for most and largest sizes go up to 46.

also made of EVA, ultra-lightweight.

SGD 30 nett

there is also the "Betula Fitness" Sandal which is quite popular among guys.

With 2 buckles resembling the Arizona design from Birkenstocks cork footbed, this design retains all the qualities as mentioned for the previous 2 designs and is very much more secure in terms of fit for the foot support.

SGD 38 nett

Fredflare loves you!

2008-04-11T14:15:00.002+08:00

The first batch of Fredflare shipment has arrived.

so nice of them to give me a $10 macy's giftcard!

so nice of them HAHAHA

i wrote "I love fredflare" on the comments page and they drew a heart back for me on the invoice and wrote "Fredflare loves u"

it made my day!

Fredflare & Funtocollect Spree

2008-04-08T00:04:00.003+08:00

FredFlare.com

Spree #1

I recently opened a FredFlare spree, fast one of 10 items and am very surprised to have it scheduled for arrival in about 8days after the payment. So this is good news for everyone else!

I will open another FredFlare spree in May and meanwhile, will also accept your requests for other American online shops.

Right now, I am opening another spree from

Funtocollect.com

There are so many items in this site, and its more like a wholesale website than anything retail.They have many F&B brand merchandise and pillows, parody items and tins!

Check out their links on the left side for Apparel and other Character merchandise.

Will only ship when there are more than 10 items so that shipping cost can be kept at $5 or lower.

Details of Spree:

Funtocollect Spree #1

Exchange Rate USD x1.4

Shipping SGD5

Date of Spree Closure - When 10 Items are reached

Delivery Duration - 10 days

Snappy Purses

2008-03-25T17:18:00.002+08:00

want a little snap purse?

Snappypurses are a new site that sells one-piece-only little purses that arrive to you in the mail. All made from waterproof nylon (think pvc), they store little stuff in a cute and dandy snap.

Short chains or keyrings are available upon request.

Birks 28th Batch - Arrived

2008-03-11T16:24:00.002+08:00

Hello Hello All!
Its always a pleasure to let everyone know that another batch of birks have arrived!

Birks 28th Batch Mass Meet Details:

10.30pm

Hougang MRT

(sorry for the late timing but that is the time I usually get back, in fact, already very much earlier!)

There are a few which have opted for postage, thanks for your understanding, I will get them posted tmr or so, and you can expect to receive them in 3 working days, by the end of the week or latest, next monday noon.

There are also many spree requests for bags and clothes, my apologies that I have still not opened any sprees for them. The main reason for this is because I do not have someone to help me with the co-ordination and administrative side of things. I used to be able to do it on my own but now that I'm working in the evenings, time is rather tight for me. So, I am looking to see if there are any suitable personnel to aid in this slightly bigger than miniscule quest for all you shopaholics out there.

Meanwhile, I am looking at www.fredflare.com and am trying to find a cheaper option to arrange for shipping. Vpost is too ex. If any of you know of a better way, please let me know and we can start a spree from this fantabulousness webby which I always love.

Happy Shopping!

Birks 29th Spree - Open

2008-02-22T13:01:00.008+08:00

the website is introducing a small collection of disney motif birkenstocks which i thought, looked pretty weird. among all of them this one seemed the most wearable - perhaps if you have a kid you would beg to differ. anyways, there have been quite a handful of you who have expressed your interest in the 29th Spree. So alright, if you would like to get some birks, here's what you have to do:

Terms of spree

You belong to the Birks 29th Batch

meaning there were 28 sprees before this!
Each batch is usually 10 – 20 pairs which makes around 300 pairs & counting.
Its generally preferred to communicate through email & sms - let me know if you prefer other means!
Also, do check your mail regularly.

Sometimes, my mails end up in junk/spam folders of hotmail or gmail, so please check that you do not mark me as spam.
Nearing the order date, please expect to receive a CONFIRMATION MAIL from me. I will also sms you for an instant reply if needed.
This mail will include itemized details of:Your order -- check the size and styleThe total payment amount -- please note that Sg customs charge custom duties upon arrival of a bulk parcel and from past experience; they usually work out to $5 a pair.
You do not pay shipping charges as it is F.O.C but custom duties are unavoidable due to the bulk order.
Credit cards only accept Euro & USD and so, all prices are calculated from EUR to SGD.
Conversion from EUR is fixed at x2.3 to SGD.
This is slightly higher than the rates you get online as it is a credit card transaction and is always changing, determined daily by the respective banks.
Within 2 days of your confirmation - your FULL payment is needed.Please pay by bank transfer (POSB/DBS) -- as cash & carry is a tad too risky for me, for this I seek your kind understanding :)
Ordering will commence only upon payment -- as such, please pay promptly to avoid making the others in the spree, wait for your payment.
Thereafter, it will be transacted and no further changes may occur.
When nearing the date of arrival, please expect to receive an ARRIVAL MAIL from me.
I will also SMS you, just incase you have no internet access.
This will include the date and location to pass you your purchase.
Should you be unable to make it, I will try to arrange a time separately for you to collect.
Alternatively you may send others on your behalf.
In the event of a defect, please inform me.
However, if you feel that your shoes differ in color or size from the actual on site, please feedback them to the site directly.
Do note that I do not accept exchange or refunds for ANY reason other than my negligence of an error.
That’s all & hear from you soon!

Birks 28th Batch - Closed!

2008-02-15T02:48:00.005+08:00

Hello fellow spree lovers!

I will be closing all non-birkenstock sprees for the time being as I am a little tied up as of late and wouldn't be able to reply mails as frequently as before. The blog shop will still be open and updated as and when there are stuff too!

If you would like to be in the mailing list for Birk Sprees, please leave a comment after this entry with your name and email. Or, if you just want to be updated whenever new stuff are selling on the blogshop, leave your email too! If you see sites which you wish to make purchases from, you can let me know too - and when the time is right, we might be able to work something out!

However, I will still be having Birk Sprees every month and so, as long as you are keen in purchasing a pair or two, remember to allow at least 3 weeks for delivery! Plan ahead for presents and save the trouble!

Feel free to drop a mail when you would like to participate in a spree as there will always be ongoing sprees! Just mail me according to the format to order (refer to previous spree entry).

With that,
Thanks all for spreeing and happy shopping!

PG spree 1 updates - Cancellations

2008-01-20T14:25:00.000+08:00

Dear All from PG Spree 1,

I have decided to cancel this spree as the waiting time for it is too long, and there have been quite a few of you who indicated interest in cancelling/changing orders.

For now I will not be having any sprees from PG as they only accept payment by concealed cash or through another Taiwan payment site (which is down). I may open another bag spree after CNY or end Feb. So, once again really sorry to have made all of you anticipate for it since... so long ago. hehe :)

Hence, I would be making refunds to you and updates will be shown here.

Siyi 35.45 - done, ref # 1558824079

ANYWAY, because of all of you baglovers/birklovers/shopaholics, the year has closed seeing a total of more than 150 Birks passing through, and about 100 bags in the past few months.

The hassles of budget shopping have never been so fun and uniting us against evil sellers!

Thank you all for your kind (or unkind) help in co-operating with the sprees and its really been a nice time meeting all of you and seeing your somewhat shy but anticipating faces. My apologies if there has been stuff which you were unhappy with and hope that the new year that is about to come, will bring forth more bountiful harvest for us shopping queens riding on the waves of techie-ness!

Untill then....
Happy Holidays and Remember to save Money Yeah!

Love,
Amanda :)

(payments thereafter)

IMPT ANNOUNCEMENT! bags spree

2007-11-27T23:42:00.000+08:00

Dearest Everyone,

Announcement 1

Skyblue aka Bigi bags (the TW site we've been buying from) - i will NOT BE ORGANIZING ANY MORE SPREES FROM THIS WEBSITE henceforth.

Reason being they are very unreliable and have not been replying me with regards to all my orders or questions.

Just to notify everyone, during the 1st spree, there was a parcel mixup if u remember. Then the 2nd spree, came late. The 3rd spree, they owed me 136 TWD and came short of 3 bags. For 1 month thereafter they were extraordinarily slow to reply and respond with regards to new orders or the missing bags. Its been 1 full month and this is enough. My sincere apologies to all who were waiting or needed their bags within the 3 wks time frame. I have decided to stop ordering from this site.

Ive gone through another fellow spreer (big thanks jamie!) and it appears that the seller replied to her, with regards to her own order & upon arrival, a few bags were missing too.

The current status of the Bags Spree 4 orders is that it is going through her, to the TW seller and so - i'd like all of u to note that when she gets back to me on the available stock, it will be the last batch of bags from this site. All unavailable stocks, I will make refunds asap upon confirmation.

Those 3 bags which are missing, I am trying to get refunds for u. However, in the worse case scenario, u might just have to forfeit the money paid. The best I can do is to refund u the shipping cost of SGD5. I am trying okay but no guarantees on this.

Any queries with regards to this issue, please mail me and i will try my most bestest to assist.

Announcement 2

In this time span, I have also managed to find and contact another bags seller from Taiwan, similar, called PG bags.

[link here.]

This site has similar bags to Skyblue, but not as prettily photographed. However, many of the bags which are repeated, show clearer (and more truthful) photographs of the bag's details and stuff. Many of the bags are actually the same but look BIGGER and are measured to be a little bigger on this site cos the PREV site seemed to have used a taller model and measured it a few cms smaller. (compare eg 1 & eg 2. identical bags) The shipping might be a bit cheaper for the new site, am not sure yet but will charge $5 for now and refund if less.

Altho variety is slightly lesser, this site apparently is better rated and won some of those website popularity award. Like best lady's handbag seller for 2007 on yahoo taiwan.

When I mailed them, they mailed back in a somewhat prompt and organized manner, in better clarity than our ex-site.

I am opening this spree for orders and will close when i've reached 10 bags.

To order pls scroll to bottom of page! :)

Please email me with your details:

Bags Spree 4 - No News Yet. Clothes Sites.

2007-11-18T01:47:00.000+08:00

Dear People of Bags Spree 4,

Just to let u know, I am still waiting for a response from the TW seller.
And I bug them once every 3 days for a reply, I believe they must hate me now but I don't care. Hahahaha

Will update you all as usual when I've got responses. So please don't keep asking me cos, I will always update here whenever there's something noteworthy.

If the Taiwan side replies by around the 20th, the bags would probably reach (those that are available immediately) around 1st week December. Remember, those that aren't imm avail need 20 days and I will only know when the seller replies on that.

Thanks all for ur patience :)

Lately, I have been looking at a few websites and contacting them with regards to buying clothes from them. Perhaps if any of you have feedback on the sites below, u can let me know! I am trying out a few pieces first cos I've heard about quality issues from them.

1. CCT Fashion

The prices are very cheap, shipping is about $5 a piece.
But the main drawback is each single design has to have a minimum of 2 pcs to order. That means, there has to be repetition, either in different size or a diff colour for 1 style.

2. ＊╮小美〞日系浪漫璀璨時尚╭＊
Japanese fashion. am quite hopeful for this site cos the seller actually replied my chinese mail in english. wow! 100points for initiative. HAHA

3. ~Queen Shop~
I personally like this shop and the style. The last I mailed them, they told me international orders will be opened in October 07. hmmm... What do you think? Like it?

Oh, btw the Bags site now sells clothes! But look at the speed they work, I am highly doubtful they'd be any more efficient with clothes AND bags....... oh well. we'll see.

Bags Spree 4 - CLOSED

2007-11-08T22:16:00.001+08:00

Dear Baglovers of Bags Spree 4,

This spree is now CLOSED!

1. I am hoping to open the Bags Spree 5, in time for Christmas - aiming to have it delivered by Dec 20th. Am not sure how keen the responses will be, so maybe u guys can start planning on bags to pick for your christmas presents and drop me a mail with your orders. If i see that there are enough keen shoppers, i'll open the spree.

2. I understand that some of your bags cannot be found on the website and I've had countless feedback that the links you saved, do not show the bags when you check back on them after awhile. Let me explain that it is an auction site, so when the auction for the bag expires, the link will refresh and become a new link. Hence, it is better that you note the PRODUCT CODE so you can use the search function to look for it. (if you are not sure which is the code click here)

3. There are a total of 18 people in this spree and 30 bags.

4. Please note, the delivery takes only 1 week to arrive. HOWEVER, the Taiwan seller takes a long time to reply and often the replies are like very unclear and it takes a long time for me to figure out and check the figures with your bags. They are also quite prone to mistakes and so, I rather take more time to confirm the order and have it delayed by 1 - 2 days than to receive wrong things.

5. Most of the time, there will be bags that are immediately available and those that need 15-20days for pre-ordering. So, given that I ship them all after the 20days - this makes the entire duration close to 30days.

6. Also, the site's credit card payment is down until the Nov 16th. As such, they have informed me that I can only make purchase by mailing cash. (no way...)

In short!

I can't answer you a date that your bags will come, simple because the actual duration taken is 1 week but It all depends on the speed of Taiwan's correspondence. So, put your mental sums and estimation to good use! I don't want to give empty promises but I believe you'd understand the situation :)

Good buys are worth the wait! Happy Shopping & Thanks everyone~ :)

Bag Spree 3 Arrival: Mass Meetup!

First off:
Bags Spree 3 - im sorry it has yet to arrive!

If you have ordered bags from it and have been very dilligently checking back for updates, THANK YOU AND MANY APOLOGIES but it has not come yet! I will sms all once the parcel arrives. They have sent it out on the 8th Oct. Come this Thursday will be one month, I seriously hope it comes. I sent this parcel out by a different shipping mode, hence the super long time.

I won't do it again! :) Please be patient dear baglovers ...

Someone pulled out of the Birks 24th Spree~ so there's 1 more slot left open and the spree will close. I have not received all payments, namely from:

1. IVY
2. ADA

Thank you all the rest for your prompt responses!
Please allow a few more days before spree closure :)

The payments for the Bags Spree 4 are not yet complete. I do urge all to check your mails otherwise, it is not being too fair to those who have paid before the dateline. Yea? :) Please try! :) I know its abit hard but you know, good deals come with sacrifice! haha

Valerie
HuiLing

I will update on this spree here so hope that the spree counter hits 2000 and I'll know that you've been dilligently waiting for my posts. HAHA kidding... I will place orders once all payments are in alright? Once again, if your bags are out of stock i will refund. If your bags are pre-orders, will need to wait 15-20 days. Other than that, delivery takes about 7-10days.

Birks 21st & 22nd Batch

2007-09-27T20:06:00.000+08:00

Updates:

Please note that if you are keen on the designs from footshopping.com, please add $7 instead of the usual $5 on top of the SINGAPORE DOLLAR STATED ON THE SITE.

This is because credit card is charged in Euro and the conversion rate is different from the on-site conversion. This $7 is also inclusive of the custom taxes paid for local duties.

Thank you!

STATUS UPDATE: Bags Spree 3

2007-09-27T19:18:00.000+08:00

Dearest spree participants of Bags Spree 3,

This is the mail I received a few days back, from the Taiwan seller, saying that they have just received my payment.

"您的款項~8509我們有收到了~~那會幫您排預購~預購須等15~20天不`包含假日喔~等商品到齊時會在報郵資給您~謝謝"

My estimate is that the bags should arrive around 19th - 24th October.

The main reason for taking a longer time is because:

- The order is quite large (32 bags)

- The order consists of some styles that are out of stock and I requested to wait for it

- The order consists of pre-order items which require 15-20days to process

- There credit card website to make payment was down for a few days

With that,

You will hear from me soon when there are status updates from the seller.

:) panic not, everyone!

Birks 21st Batch & Pre-orders

2007-09-08T03:02:00.000+08:00

The Birks 21st Batch has been ordered and will arrive between 26th Sept to 2nd Oct.

Thanks all for prompt payment!

Please note that the Pre-orders will close on 24th Sept from http://www.sandalsworld.com/ and there will be NO MORE pre-order sprees for this new 2008 Collection. Sandals ordered will arrive in March 2008 and require only 50% payment, with additional 10% discount on every pair ordered.

Be Quick!

Bags Spree 3 - all bags to be available in 3 weeks

2007-09-06T02:06:00.000+08:00

Dear All~

I managed to negotiate with the TW seller, to let us place pre-orders for those bags which they replied were out of stock. This simply spells good news to all the 41 bag orders which were initially placed!

Because they look such a long time to reply it resulted in more than half of the bags being unavailable, so they decided to allow me to make a 预购 for it. (pre-order)

Pre-orders are generally not allowed for international shipping as payments are a hassle and administrative wise - is really alot of work for me to sort the orders... (I spent at least 3 hrs on them! -_-" )

As stated on the site, preorders need 15-20 days, excluding weekends - adding the shipping time, it would take slightly more than 3 weeks. (am not surprised if it would take longer, pls be prepared to wait. thanks)

So, as I have mailed and smsed all of you, I would require all payments to be made latest by THURSDAY NIGHT 6th Sept because I spent the whole wed figuring out the orders and they only give me 3 days to make payment. This means I have to pay on Friday. So please co-operate with me to get this going on quick! I do my best to get ur stuff, pls do ur best to stick closely to my proceedures and be considerate aight?

Thanks all~ and remember!
No returns and exchange~ orders are confirmed please do not cancel it !

Bags Spree 3 Updates

2007-09-05T00:20:00.000+08:00

Thanks to all who have made the prompt transfer today!

I have mailed each one of you to confirm the receipt of it and if you have got the mail, pls note to wait ard 2 wks+ for the bags to come. They usually arrive faster but this time, the seller has been taking almost a week to get back to me, so dun place your hopes too high on an early arrival of bag.

Once again, I would like to stress that participating in this spree requires that you have agreed to the terms stated previously - esp the part on no refunds or exchanges. Simple reason being, that is the terms I agree to, with the TW seller. Hence being able to get it at this price. So... lets not say im being unsympathetic but I will forthrightly say it now - in the event of a mistake or defect, I am not liable nor responsible for the goods but within my best knowledge I will prevent and help you with it.

Okay! :)
More updates soon!

Birks: Sandalsworld PRE-ORDERS - one spree only

Website: http://www.sandalsworld.com/
Mail me your orders: e1ectr0enceph410gr4m@yahoo.com.sg

Date of spree closure: 2007 Sept 24th
Date of delivery: 2008 March

FAQs

Why like that?
cos this is a pre-order from the yet-to-be-released 2008 catalogue and so, what you are doing is to pre-order the ones u want and then they'll make it for u.

Whats the advantage?
quote from the site:
"In Sandals World we offer you only pre-order/new collection articles. Mens and Womens Sandals, shoes and more of the brands Birkenstock sandals, Birkis, Papillio, Tatami, Betula, Vabene Scholl sandals.
You will get 10% discount. You will get new shoes which are maybe not longer available in the main catalogs of 2007 and 2008! Only pay a 50% deposit and the rest of the balance when the items are ready! "

So I wont get in until somewhere in March 2008?
Yes. and you also dont need to pay full now - just half. and the other half when the stocks are ready, in 2008.
But I have to decide and pay half of the amount now, before Sept 24th?
Yes. Cos i have to place the order for the shoes by that certain time, and also pay for it.
How to know what is the price?
Approximately: Take the USD pricing x1.6 and add $5 of custom taxes to the amount & roundup.
Exact amount to pay: Will mail you a confirmation mail after you have already sent me your orders, cos the actual amount may be different when i actually make the transaction due to exchange rate fluctuation.

Bags Spree 3

2007-08-23T13:51:00.000+08:00

Dear Baglovers of Bags Spree 3 ,

Just to update you on the status:

13th Aug - I sent our orders to Taiwan

(10days later)

23rd Aug - I resent the same mail and a reminder to Taiwan

The seller is really slow!

I would expect their reply before 27th Aug and when it arrives, I will be informing all of you on the exact payment amounts as well as items which are out of stock. (via email & here)

Those who have paid, I will proceed, please note that although time has passed quite awhile since your order was sent to me, you will need to give me immediate payment when the cost is worked out for your billing!

Once again, thanks all for your patience!
:)

Momo Spree 1

2007-08-17T23:42:00.000+08:00

Hey peeps of Momo spree 1

I would like to let u know that this spree HAS NOT BEEN CLOSED DUE TO INSUFFICIENT ITEMS TO MEET THE SPREE. As such, if at any point in time u wish to cancel / replace / add on to your order, please do so.

If the turnout is not very good, I will consider cancelling orders from momo and move to another website. (this is cos the momo site's minimum order is very high and shipping becomes ex)

So, just to let u all know.

Meanwhile, (pls dun panic) i will keep u all updated here :)
if u come across any site u wish to order from, or find it good, do let me know and we can work something out if possible!

I am looking for some reliable shoes website which we can order from so, we'll see how it goes!

Thanks all for ur understanding n patience!

Birkenstock Raspberry Patent Madrid 39N

2007-08-16T22:44:00.000+08:00

In my recent spree, I have a stranger wanting to purchase this pair of Pink Raspberry Madrid. Nearing the payment dates, she became uncontactable and just when I was about to cancel her order, her sister emailed me to say that the girl was in hospital for dengue and would pay me when she came out, asking if i would advance payment for her first. I said no, cos firstly it was a stranger and secondly the shoe is not $10 -20 bucks.. its $70bucks. So i said no, asking her to pay up for her sis first. But she said that when the girl came out she would pay me. I thought about it for some time and decided, okay there isnt any reason why she would trick me since she doesnt gain ... so i decided to trust her and pay first.

Who knows, now that she is going to pay me and the birks have arrived waiting for her collection, she tells me that her dad is in hospital for heart problem and she wont have any allowance from now on so she cannot pay me.

It sounds very bad but I understand if that is a true matter - it is going to be difficult for you, but the fact is you have spent this money and what do u expect me to be? charity? if you have no money then dont buy!

Anyway the point is:

I HAVE A PAIR OF 39 NARROW RASPBERRY PATENT MADRID BIRKENSTOCK

if you know anyone in that size, who is keen, please let me know.

This pair is going for $70. I havent even opened it from the box! Its not my size I cant even wear it so you can be sure that its brand new.

It doesnt pay to trust strangers even though they may appear pitiful.

New Black Patent Madrids from Birkenstock

2007-07-29T02:27:00.000+08:00

I recently saw this pair of Black Patent Madrid Birkenstocks online and decided to post it here.

Its nice and simple. So chic! If anyone's interested in this pair, let me know!

Currently the only sizes available are 36, 39-43 Narrow. I cant wear them, sadly. They cost around SGD69 if you're keen.

I might start the Birks 20th Batch soon, when i've more or less closed the Bags Spree.

Its the 20th !!! wow ..

Even i'm impressed at the sound of it. Hhahaha..

Bags Spree 2 - Closed!

2007-07-28T01:09:00.000+08:00

Dear Participants of Bag Spree 2:

Please check your emails for payment details!

The stockcheck is done and all who belong to this spree should receive the mail, I will transact all orders upon your payment, which needs to be made within 2days.

No cancellations are allowed at this point, as the total cost is already calculated and awaiting your payment.

For those who are ordering bags which are out of stock, please indicate to me if you would like to continue placing the order in the next batch. Be default, your order will not be carried forward unless you have made payment or indicated so.

Some of the bags which were not available in Bags Spree 1, are available in Bags Spree 2. Hence, I would suggest that those who did not manage to order the first time, continue to send me your repeated order to "try again".

This batch has a total of 44 bags and will arrive in 2 shipments. Hope we wont kenna tax that way but not sure if shipping would be higher or not.

The Bags Spree 2 is now closed and all orders w.e.f 28-07-07 will be classified under

Bags Spree 3!

Start sending your orders today!

Bags Spree 1 has arrived

2007-07-24T22:57:00.000+08:00

The 16 bags of the Bags Spree 1 have arrived!

Just for your info:

The total cost of shipping + gst is around SGD80.

It took around 6 days for airmail.

But the seller takes averagely 3-4days to reply.

For the following shoppers who haven't collected your bags,

Jacelyn, Jiayi, Mindy, Shiying, YQ

If you would like to have them sent to you, please let me know your address and make an addition $3 transfer for the postage per bag.

If you are around Hougang, please let me know so I can see if the timing works out for a pickup of your bags. Please note that it is NOT my responsibility nor is it the default for me to deliver or meet you to pass your bags! Cos Im actually SUPPOSED to mail them to you and you bear the costs -- but because I know you want to save money, so I'll try my best to work out some convenient time and place for me to carry all your bags to pass it to you....

(some times hao xin mei you hao bao u know)

Anyway... generally, the bags are all very well packed and not damaged in any way.

However, the workmanship is nothing to rave about and larger and chunkier bags tend to be a little on the heavy side. Some of the bags are good (esp the green one i bought last time) and are of versatile usage.

Just a casual reminder: You get what you pay for!

There were a few people who wanted to order this bag, but it was unavailable in 2 out of 3 colours. This bag however, does look nice -- like the picture. But is quite heavy on its own. (right side of the above picture shows) Quality is not very good but if you don't mind things like the edge of the cut isn't painted, the inner material is not very symmetrical.... then i guess this would be a steal for you.

I can imagine it to be selling for at least $36 at bugis?

This bag costs $22.50 inclusive of the shipping and taxes.

This bag here was one of the nicer looking bags among the lot. $14.95.

Also another one, which arrived in white - looked above average and quite classy. (in the plastic bag) This ones $29.

The Bags Spree 2 is also open for all who may wish to order again!

Mail me in the format yeah~ when there are enough I will place the order! please do check mails for the current BS2 participants who have already sent me your orders. Cos I will be transacting them in the next few days already!

Bags Shopping 1 -> Parcel Mishap

2007-07-23T22:57:00.000+08:00

Hey babes of Bag Shopping 1 !! This was supposed to be your parcel !! BUT.....
It isnt !! Apparently there was a mixup and somebody'e parcel landed here and mine's somewhere still out there. What a way to grace our first spree! So anyway, please do allow up to end of the week for it to arrive! Early yea?

If all goes well and sorted out, you girls can probably start picking up your bags from me from Thursday onwards.

For those who are not free to pickup or meet up, please let me know your address for postage option. Please note the cost is self-borne and exact figure will not be known until posted. But should be less than $4 if not too heavy or bulky.

So... keep coming back for updates!

Buying Details:

Conversion is 1SGD - 20NT (divide price by 20)

Upon emailing me of your CONFIRMED orders. No changes are allowed.

2. In the bulk order are some bags which are under “yu gou” (= preorder)

3. They take 15-20days instead of immediate availability

4. So, to expedite, I will be selecting the Air shipment which takes 5-8days (By sea = 1mth or more)

5. So the estimated duration for the whole order is 28days / 4wks / 1 mth

6. The shipping fee is shared among all & is calculated by weight of shipment

7. I will fix it at $5 PER BAG – not per order.

8. Upon ordering, the seller will indicate if there are out of stock items

9. After calculation of the available items, I will Email you the amount & payment details

10. Please pay within 2days of receipt & SMS me upon completion. (I use POSB Savings Acc)

11. There may be a need to top up if the shipping fee is above what is estimated (since we haven’t done this b4)

12. If it is much lower than $5, I will also refund

13. Upon Arrival, I will sms you to arrange for pickup of the bags

14. Collection will be made during mass meetup, at a convenient location. (for all spree participants) Exact location I depends on my schedule but I will generally meet at a place with MRT.

15. Postage is also possible if you prefer and the cost is estimated $2.50 a bag – to your doorstep

16. Lastly: my number is (click here to ask) and I will order when there are enough bags to go!

17. If you have friends who like bags, tell them about the site and we’ll place the next order when there’s 10! If you have more than5 bags, let me know, I have an excel sheet to make it easier for you (and me!)

18. MOST IMPORTANTLY: STRICTLY No refunds, No exchange (the site does not so u cant expect me to..)

ls note that you need to agree that we are buying this TOGETHER so, I am, like you, a shopper. I am not liable for any defect/poor quality/bad workmanship and in the event where the shipment gets lost, we will be forfeited of our payment just as how you will be, when you shop online at your own risk. but of course, we all dont hope for it to happen and i will, within my might, take all precautions against it. i am not responsible for whatever happens to your bag or your payment once it is transferred out of my hand. i am also not 'supposed' to ensure any information is given to you because my job is just to organize a spree and be happy shopping! when u are happy i am happy! so dont be grumpy! :)

Baby Bibs

2007-07-19T12:26:00.000+08:00

I've had some friends who have been looking for presents for newborns and toddlers. So I thought these might be really nice especially if your friends are cool parents. Haha.

They're normal 100% cotton bibs printed with the famous "I Love xx" stuff. I guess its really fun if you take your kid out and then snap this on that says "I love girls" and its a baby boy.. haha.

Of course if you've been sick of the I love xx looks and want something subtle, there's this.. I'd really get the red one for my nephew, cos it looks just like a prefect's tie. HAHA

This one i think is the funniest and its not really uber cute but its just so cheeky. Cant help but want to see every feeding baby wear it. HAHA

Buying Details:

Postage prices inclusive

1 bib goes for 10SGD

Any 3 for 25SGD

Customizable names available at 12SGD per bib ! Cool!
