First GMarket Haul!!!

So, I have finally received my first GMarket Haul!!
May I just mention how excited I was??  And how long I have been waiting for this?


If anyone needs help with GMarket please feel free to ask me, as I now pretty much am out of most of my confusion surrounding this.


So without further ado, my sensible haul:

A picture of the EMS-box, it was pretty filled.  Sadly, it took me longer than get as it was held by customs.


My teddy-bear nicely fits into the box :).

All the stuff, so finally I'm going to show you what I got.


1.  Dress


I don't even know what to call this color.  Anyway I got this dress, as I fell in love with the simplicity.  To be honest, the color is almost the same in real life, almost no difference.  The quality is really good, I was amazed.  It also has padding on the shoulders and bust-area and fits me nicely. Pretty happy ^_^
2. Peach Cardigan


This was a bit on the pricey side.  Nevertheless it was worth it.  The color is a little darker in real life, but it's really cute.  Again amazing quality and the buttons are especially nice. Here's a little picture to show the material up-close:





4.  Turquoise Blouse


This blouse is really pretty and casual enough to wear to College, while still looking good.  It is a bit big on my petite frame, but still looks really pretty.  I've been wanting to buy something this color.


5. Basic Coat


The most expensive item.  But it is worth it, as you wouldn't find anything similar for cheaper.  I thought it was pretty basic and a must-have, as I've been stealing my moms black coat for quite some time now.  Well, it's abit longer on me than on the model, but I'm shorter as well.



Overall I'm really satisfied ^_^
Now a few things to note were the shipping:  allthough pricey, I got some of it refunded.  Now this made me really happy, however, I can understand some peoples frustration:  It is refunded not in cash, but you can use it in GMarket for another order(that is a full order) so until you don't have enough, no order with this money.  For me this is okay, since I want to repurchase a lot of times, so it is like my own saving account for another Haul haha.

Another thing is the delivery.  Srsly.  It took people in Korea 1 week to get everything ready and ship it to the UK.  And then what happens?  Yes people here are holding it for like a week wtf.   Then I have to pay customs.  I wasn't pleased but okay.  Then they tell me if I want to get it quick, I have to pay money.  When I already paid for the fcing expensive express delivery.  Ok.  Then I have to pay 12 quid for their service fee or whatever.  This was pissing me off so much.  But in the end I got my package(even when I had to drive to he post office that is 30mins away)

Oh another thing:  If you are really overweight or really skinny, some clothes might not look good on you.




Now, I'm off to place another order.
