I'm not writing that many entries at the moment because I'm really busy.. I kind of don't get to do anything I want to at the moment! But I think it will get better after my holidays. Tomorrow I'm leaving for Finland. I will stay there until 1st August. After that I think I will have a little bit more time left to write some entries.
So here's just a short update on my newest purchases. Besides that I want to introduce you the Shopping Service I use.
This is what I bought:
Like some of you might know, I have been a big d.i.a fan for about 4 years now! I'm really looking forward to the time when I'm in Japan and can just walk in the store myself and buy anything I want
This is what was inside those bags:
I reaaaaally love the belt! It's just sooo lovely! Really great! The brown/beige top (the one on the top right) unfortunately is a little shooort.. but maybe I'll find a way to wear it anyway.
Here's what I got from Cecil McBee

I took 2 pictures of me wearing some of the clothes, but well better pictures of final coordinates will maybe follow later on.
Now I think you all might be curious about the shopping service I use. I have been buying through it for about 1 1/2 - 2 years. I can guarantee you that I have always been satisfied. I wouldn't recommend the service if I wasn't satisfied with it.
Kaimonodaikou!
Who's Kaimonodaikou? The one who's running it is Michiyo Takiguchi, a really gentle and friendly person. If you have any questions she's always there to answer them. She answers fast and does her best to get the items you want.
Where in Japan is the Shoppingservice located? She lives in Tokyo, so the items will be send from there.
What are the prices? Additionaly to the itemprice and the shipping to her place, she will add a handling charge, which is in my opinion in a good range, so it's not too high I think.
Here the first part of her pricelist:
| Total Price | Handling Charge |
| ~ 1,500 yen (~ 17US$) | 750 yen (9US$) |
| 1,501 ~ 2,500 yen (18 ~ 26US$) | 1,000 yen (11USD) |
| 2,501 ~ 5,000 yen (27 ~ 54US$) | 1,500 yen (17US$) |
| 5,001 ~ 10,000 yen (55 ~ 108US$) | 2,000 yen (22USD) |
| 10,001 ~ 15,000 yen (109 ~ 162US$) | 2,500 yen (27US$) |
| 15,001 ~ 20,000 yen (163 ~ 216US$) | 3,000 yen (32US$) |
| 20,001 ~ 25,000 yen (217 ~ 269US$) | 3,500 yen (37US$) |
What payment methods does she accept? She accepts paypal only, so be sure that you've got it.
Why do you recommend her shopping service? Well, I have been comparing shopping service prices a lot and I think her prices are totaly fine. Besides that she's really friendly and always available for questions. She has always been giving me information on the shipping costs from Japan to my place as well. Further on she does bidding on items on auction websites like mbok.jp. Choosing a shopping service is like gambling, either you get a good one or not. This one is good for sure. I'm certain that she won't disappoint you♥
If you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask me about my experience or anything else. I will try to help you. For further information about the Shopping Service click on the link below. You will find there everything you need.

ReplyDeleteThanks a lot! ♥ happy to hear that
ReplyDeletethanks a loooot~♥
ReplyDeleteI'm always not so sure about my outfits : D

ReplyDeleteYou just have to write her an e-mail with the links to the things that you want her to buy for you. Else you can find the instructions on her homepage :)
ReplyDeleteOh that coral pink d.i.a top!! I have really liked that top so it's really wonderful to see it modeled by you! And the belt too is so beautiful, oh there are too many cute clothes in the world XD

ReplyDeleteHi! Is there a d.i.a website or something? I keep looking for it, but can't find it!
ReplyDeleteCute clothes, loved them! ;D
yeah her prices are really good ♥
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately there isnt.. :(
ReplyDeleteI keep looking for a D.I.A shopping site but can't find it,
ReplyDeletewhat do you do to let them know what to buy there ?
I check out modelblogs and also staff blogs and just send her pictures from there☆彡
ReplyDeleteany recommended blogs to visit ? :)
ReplyDeleteHi there!
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to contact Kaimonodaikou, but with no response, is your comunication with her working so far? :(
http://ameblo.jp/dia-spec/ this one here is the staff blog from Tokyo! I check that one out really often, because they usually post some pictures of new clothing they get! ♥
ReplyDeletehow long have you been waiting? Usually she answers within 24h.. if she's really busy it might take 48h. She's doing it privately as far as I know, so she might be busy because of some other things. My communication has always been very good with her. But it has happened that it took her a little longer than 24h to answer (also because of the timediffrence). But I've always recieved everything I wanted :)
ReplyDeleteI loooove the belt! Maybe you can add some lace or a ruffle to the short top?
ReplyDeleteOh! That would be a good idea! Thank you for sharing it! I might even try that! Thanks a lot! ♥♥♥
ReplyDeleteDanke dir viel mals für deine Infos über den Shoppingservic, das ist echt nützlich!
ReplyDeleteJetzt hab ich aber noch eine Frage. Ich hab gesehen, dass du auch in der Schweiz lebst und wollte deshalb mal fragen wie das so mit den Zollkosten aussieht? Hab da immer angst davor, dass ich dann so hohe Zollkosten zahlen muss, wenn ich was aus Japan bestelle.
Mhmm, der Zoll ist immer sone Sache. Kommt in der Regel teuer.
ReplyDeleteABER, da der Shopping Service eine private Person ist, ist die Möglichkeit, dass das Päckchen aufgemacht wird, viel kleiner. Wenn ich aus japanischen Shops direkt bestellt habe, wurden die beim Zoll fast IMMER aufgemacht und ich durfte man nen paar Nötchen hinblättern. Sagen wirs so, über Shopping Service zahlt man zu 90% keinen Zoll. Du kannst sie nämlich auch bitten einen bestimmten Preis auf das Päckchen zu schreiben ;)
EMS zahlst du ausserdem noch eine Gebühr dafür, dass das Päckchen nicht liegen bleibt, sondern direkt weitergeschickt wird (um die 30.- CHF! =_=; ). Selten zahlt man richtig Zoll drauf, meistens nur MwSt.. ^^;;
hoffe das hilft schon etwas? : 3
omg these tops are all so awesome!!!! the belt is nice too! Thanks for following =) I think I've seen you at the JAN? I even have a picture of you on my blog ;)
ReplyDeleteNo thingyy ^^ like your blog : ) It's interesting!
ReplyDeleteHuh? have you? Rly? Then I gotta search for that one haha : D
