They gave me bad customer service because they thought I wanted something, which I didn't. Any who, I will see about getting someone there to shop for the items I want. Hardcore, yes, but at least I know what I want and not trying new things. Also, for those who still want to shop with Tester Korea, pay for the express shipping. Why? They pack your box faster and you will get it in weeks. I did ordered a box early December...did not get it til March. However, when I order a box in February...I got it maybe two weeks later. So I think they pack all orders that pay the premium for shipping first and do the rest later.Didihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06028432046741646132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-21211068616654931712016-03-06T20:06:34.171-08:002016-03-06T20:06:34.171-08:00and what happened with wishtrend, u didnt mention ...and what happened with wishtrend, u didnt mention them.

However, it is also related to this post. I have shopped through Avecko and 11st, so I'm not a newbie. I have also been side-eyeing the 11st shipping coupon. My question is this:<br /><br />What would be the advantage of ordering from 11st? The only circumstance I can see where it would be a benefit is if said goodies are not available from the RRS or BAEs of the world. Am I missing something?<br /><br />Best,<br />Lenore<br /><br />BTW, Global Interpark's Free Shipping page is awesome sauce if you want to get your SU:M37 on.

First of all, thank you for your site...Hello Cat, <br /><br />First of all, thank you for your site and your detailed reviews, you are a reference for me regarding K-beauty. Having read your article on the cream Joseon, I was not able to resist and bought it on the site Beauty Box Korea (http: // www.beautyboxkorea.com). The cream cost me only $12. Postal charges are calculated according to the weight and remain reasonable. The customer service is reactive (answer to the questions during the day) and especially I received my parcel in 1 week. I live in France and I wait usually 3 weeks before receiving my parcel Sasa, RRS... In brief, experience is positive:-) <br />Have a good dayAmelieghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08760608544259441212noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2541982013000251431.post-26714501554073078622016-03-02T06:49:22.299-08:002016-03-02T06:49:22.299-08:00I have bookmarked so many of your pages on your si...I have bookmarked so many of your pages on your site that it is ridiculous! And I have bookmarked this as a quickie reference. I used Amazon for K-beauty solely on your recommendations, and it's been great. I afraid of them at first, wondering about counterfeits, but fortunately, I learned through your sufferings... :) I love Jolse - in fact, I often order through them if I have a bunch of things rather than piecemeal from US suppliers.

I don't feel I'm familiar enough with products to order from Amazon and know if I'm getting dupes or not. I've placed two orders, one from Wishtrend and one from RoseRoseShop. I always feel I'm making a good decision and then I end up reading something about that shop to rethink my purchase! I still have yet to even relieve my first order, which was placed over three weeks ago and even my patience is running out. I may try Jolse next. I've only heard positive things about them.

I had a few emails back and forth with RRS about Mizon's free shipping, and that's when I figured it out.
