Fairy-Angel.com Shop Review

Having just extolled the virtues of buying used clothes, and I have also just finished a shopping transaction with a consignment Lolita shop called Fairy-Angel. It's not a very well known shop, so I considered that a review might be in order.

Fairy-Angel is an online Lolita consignment shop similar to Closet Child, meaning that they sell used clothing and routinely update with new stock. (Fairy-Angel also sells some new items as well). They organize their items by both brand and category, and some of the brands they carry include: BABY the Stars Shine Bright, Angelic Pretty, Emily Temple Cute, Victorian Maiden, Innocent World - larger names - and some smaller names, like QUTIE FRASH.

The order from Fairy-Angel, you go to their International Order page and then click 'contact us'. A window pops up, and you add your information: name, address including country, your item name and number, and I added the price just to be on the safe side. Don't forget to include your e-mail.

I received my response in my email inbox the next day, and then from there you confirm your order and your email. They then ask you for payment, and request you pay within 2 days. This is important! For a while Fairy-Angel was being so jerked around by overseas customers who weren't paying on time that they threatened to stop shipping overseas. So please make sure you can pay as soon as possible.

Then then notify you as to when your dress has been shipping. My dress took less than a week to get here after they shipped it - probably about four days. It came well packaged in a box with their name on it, and the dress was housed in a plastic bag.

Communication: 9/10 (the original way of contact was a little odd, using a webform)
Shipping Price/Fees: 8/10 (reasonable)
Packaging: 10/10 (easy to open but also securely shipping, package undamaged upon arrival)
Speed: 10/10 (excellent, and tracking number included. I didn't expect to get this in time for Thanksgiving and did!)
