Victorian maiden group order and new reserve items
UPDATE: Group order now closed! If you sent an order and haven't heard from us yet, please let us know ASAP.
Two tasty bits of Victorian maiden news today - a new batch of reserve items (including shoes!) and a group order.
Up for reserve are a new run of the Victorian ribbon pumps, the Gathers Frill Ribbon dress, and three items in the new Fairy Tale Doll series, including a skirt, blouse and dress. The reserve period on these items expires January 4. Check them out!
Also!
We're just about to place a new order with VM ourselves for our store, so now is your chance to get your special orders for any of their current items in. Here's how it works:
Visit Victorian maiden's "shopping" page. You'll see a list of new items there, along with item categories on the left. Their web site is very slow, but just keep refreshing. You can order most items that are not listed as sold out in any of those categories. A very few of their items are available only in their Press Room - this is the warning message on those items:Don't worry if you can't read that; we'll tell you if you order something that's Press Room only. But we're just giving you the info if you want to look yourself.
Also, if you see this on your item......then we probably can't get it. You can still try, and we'll ask them, but it's very unlikely.
If you see this on your item...Then you can ask us and we'll ask VM. That means "low stock". It's about a 50/50 chance.
When you see something you like, email us with the following info:
Subject: Victorian maiden Group Order
Your name
Your email address for PayPal invoicing
Your phone # (just in case)
The item name
Any color/options you want
A direct link to the item page
We will email you back with our US price on the item, which is usually just the Japanese price at current exchange rates plus our estimate of the shipping costs from Japan. If you agree to the price, then we will invoice you for a 30% deposit via PayPal. If you prefer to pay in our store, we're happy to do that as well. If you prefer to pay 100% up front, that's fine with us too. We will invoice you for the remaining balance when we receive the item(s), and we expect full payment within 48 hours. As a special this time, if you order over $200 worth of merchandise through this group order, your shipping within the US will be a flat $8.95 regardless of weight. We will also ship internationally, but we will need to figure out international shipping costs on a case by case basis.
THIS ORDER WILL CLOSE ON JANUARY 4 AT 10PM EST.
We've extended the group order one day so we can send our group and reserve orders at the same time.
Also, don't forget that in preparation for getting some new stock in, we're running a clearance sale on many of our current VM dresses and skirts! 20% off our regular prices! See what's available. The more we sell, the more new stuff we'll get.
