SHOPLAH SPREE CANCELLED!

Hi girls, thanks to Yilin who tagged, warning me against shopping with Shoplah.com, I decided to check out the comments about them online and there is a whole barrage of complaints about their quality and credibility.

Thus, I have decided to cancel the SHOPLAH spree.

For those who have ordered and paid, I will be refunding you your $$, no worries! Check your email for more details.

I am really really thankful for the warning, Yilin! You have just saved us hundreds of dollars and heartache!

Especially since I ordered quite a few items for myself, my friends and family already.

Just to share my own experience,

more than a few months ago, i was interested in this lace blouse.

I emailed SHOPLAH.COM to enquire but i never ever received their reply.

A few months later, I decided to combine orders with my family and friends. The number of items came up to about 15. I emailed SHOPLAH with my orders, expecting to enjoy their free delivery as I had their link up on my website.

However, they informed me I would not be eligible for free delivery as my items amounted to more than 5kg, thus an extra cost of $9.15 would be incurred for the courier fee. I was already feeling a little displeased as I felt that the $9.15 cost for the courier was not worth it.

Thus I emailed and ask if I could self collect it at the listed Tampines address instead.

Shoplah's reply:
"i am so sorry but self collection has been changed to jurong now. as now all our clothes will be sent there for packing."

I then asked:
"Hi, we don't mind going to collect it at.. jurong. Haha. If it's alright shall i go ahead and make the payment of $246?"

Shoplah's reply:
"Hi, we do not entertain self collection for orders less than 21 pieces. Thank you and have a nice day. Regards, The ShopLah! Team"


I was already pretty irked by their curt reply. In addition, they seemed simply uninterested in earning your sales and did not even attempt to exceed customer's expectations or go the extra mile.

However, I decided then that I would make up the amount to at least 21items, so as to be able to hit the quota for self collection. Thus I decided to open the spree to public on this blogshop.

Thankfully, I came across the warning from Yilin.

Honestly, after reading the comments online, I do believe that Shoplah probably does send out the items (probably very very delayed), but they are not like the ones shown in the picture. It's a matter of quality and an issue of deceptive marketing to customers.

Right now, I am just grateful for the warning. Better safe than sorry! It's not worth the risk.




P.S. I am looking for that lace blouse in the pic! Preferably less than SGD$23. Do email or tag me if you know where I can get that! Thanks!
