Oh my God! 31.12.2010!!!

Wa its really unbelievable. I have so many things to do at work (rushing the 2010 workload) and now, this is the LAST day of 2010!

time really flies. Especially when we start working and become 21yrs old. Just fly.
Now more white hairs (shit!!!), waist getting wider and skin pores become bigger. Not forgetting my steadily increasing weight.

Looking at my 2010 Resolution, its what I've always want to accomplish but always cant. I am an owl that stay awake at night. Just yesterday (due to work), i went home at 4am. Zzz at 6am

My resolution for 2010 is like my resolution in 2006 and beyond. The piece of paper on my wall about 'Zzzz early' and my brother came into the room, point at the paper and said I can strike of 2006 and just write '2007'. So yea........ till now, the 2010 resolution will be changed by entering the '1' to replace the '0'..... so it becomes 2011.

Really need to buck up (ai. said for so many yrs but never did). I need to be more enthusiastic about life, look forward to 2011 (and my Prada bag hahahahha and my pearls hehehe) and try to finish my office work. But the most important thing is to give a precious gift to myself. Something that $$$ cannot buy but yet without $$$$, its impossible to support.


So yea, I must buck up, Zzzz Early, Wake up Early, Go to Work Early so I can go home Early = Healthy cycle
and then give myself a great present for the future. "Fighting!"

BOrderlinx User = DO NOT ever use Autoship!

Why? A picture says a thousand words.............

Siao Bor = Singlish term of = Are u sure? CRAZY? something like that

Can you imagine how much one will have to pay if this is under autoship where items get shipped out automatically? Paid GST to government for something that is never so heavy and also pay to Borderlinx. Then later they tell u they are sorry, they cannot refund u. They can only issue u credit note of USD440++ then how?

Cher's solution!

Ms Cher finally done it! Congratulations! She managed to place an order from Gmarket.. lets see what she said in the shoutbox or chatbox

4 Dec 10, 10:42 PM

Cher: Hi Jen, yay me! Finally I paid successfully! I chose another country instead of Vietnam, so I could make payment LOL. Then I went to Shopping List and changed delivery address. That's it!

Cher: I chose Thailand since both of those two countries's shipping fees are the same

Cher is from Vietnam and she's having problems with her Gmarket payment using paypal. Credit card also not accepted... and bear in mind that Vietnam is under the list of countries where Gmarket ships to. So its really weird. Well, hope those from Vietnam that are having issues with Gmarket payment can get some ideas from Cher's contribution.

Looking forward to her good news after she receive her gmarket loots! :P

================================================

P/S

Cher has received her package! So yea for those from Vietnam and having issues with yr payment, you may like to consider Cher's "strategy" At yr OWN RISK ok... hehehe...

Post Christmas Haul

Crabtree & Evelyn

I bought them because of the boxes!!! One of them is a wedding gift. Anyone wants to get the body lotion , body cream from me? I will sell to u at a low price. 40% or so off listed price? Any Takers?

Shu Uemura

Made in CHINA!!!

Its a special promotion so the GWP is for $250 purchase. Quite value for $$$ because the normal promotion is $180 for the pouch & 3 pc GWP. Also, i have a $25 Voucher from these purchase and another 10% store value rebate.

The SA didnt even give me this paper bag! I must ASK for it!!!

Gmarket Haul I

EMS BOX!

The box is normal size EMS box i suppose. Much smaller than my normal purchases. I choose EMS over the new provider because i like their packaging. Even if the items are too much, they will bubble wrap the items by sellers and put into the EMS box. So i dont mind paying slightly more for the bubble wraps or box.

However, pls note that EMS seem to be delivered by Singpost.

There's a Singpost sticker on the box.

I Love these diaries!!!!

Nice isnt it? The small book with the ger is the free gift. The diary is abt $17SGD after conversion. I like the quality of these korean diaries. Furthermore, they came with good packaging, good quality paper and even come with stickers etc. Not forgetting that they are CUTE!

From my Fav fav seller!!!

This is my favourite seller and everytime i bought wallets or bags from them. This time round i Bought a Prada "inspired" calf leather wallet. I like it that the design is unique, using leather and yet at only SGD$80 or so. I am sick of Renoma, Braun Buffel? kind of wallets. I dont want to buy LV wallet because i dont fancy them.. find it too thick & dont like monogram color combination.

In case people thought i am sour grape, err no? I have LV bags like Stresa and some others but i havent even carry the stresa that i have bought for a yr now........

hard to believe its been sitting in my cupboard for a year now. i think i should really take it out and use it.

Ok back to this wallet, i really find that its a value for $$$ purchase. Love it! The wallet looks much nicer in real life. I am unable to capture the matte yet reflective? kinda contradicting *sigh* i dont know how to describe the leather hehehe but hack! Just remember the wine color makes the wallet look unique and outstanding. NICE!!!

There's also a leather card pouch. For putting credit card. The price is not expensive. Ard $15? and its ReAl leather not faux leather okay!!! So Soft! Love it too. hehehee

Anyway i bought so many things from this seller, i am kinda assured about the quality. Just more concern abt the colors and how the design or leather will look like in real life.

LV similar logo Handphone Strap

This is expensive. $10++ and i saw one small crystal drop off........ i tried to hook to my LV stresa but it doesnt really look nice on LV. Not sure where should i put this since iphone case cannot hook anything to it.

All the above pictures are just part of my purchases... some accessories and a bag is not shown..... this time round i skipped cosmetics. Been buying too much from USA and also local stores.

Although the items are not much, I also spend like $180 on these stuffs. The bag and wallet is genuine leather and both already more than $120. *faint*

Woohoo my Gmarket items arrived!

Wowwwwwww just as i am wondering will i get to receive my items on Thurs (wed is public holidays), a young postman has delivered this!!!

and thats when the tracking is shown as 4am+ arrived at Destination Airport... and no more further update!!!

Will be loading the pics soon........... when I am free

Gmarket Lesson : Applying Discount Coupon/s

Ok... because of the Gmarket event I managed to win some discount coupon. Lets go through this simple tutorial ..... its quite easy and everything is in english so there's no need to freak out or avoid using it.

Applying Discount Coupon..

Ok basically, the top portion is something you will see if you click 'Shopping Cart'. Since this is overseas purchase, i am clicking Overseas tab.

You have 2 options to apply discount code.

One application is during the time where you select and input the items into yr cart.

Another is this short cut ...(see above picture) ..

Click on Coupon Box it works great especially when you have selected the items you want and u can just adjust the discount code. After clicking of Coupon Box, the lower portion screen appears....

Now refer to the lower portion, you see grey box 'Applying'. It means this has been applied (See the words). You cannot use it unless you remove this coupon from the item that used it.

So you can only apply if

(1) criteria is met like amount of the items you want to buy is at leaest the amount stated

(2) The circle box or radio box is enabled (common sense hahhaa!!!)

(3) No words 'Applying' is shown which means the coupon is available. I have noticed that I can apply some coupons together. Its under SUPER category.

I bought the bag at 60000Won++ and after applying 2 coupons, i have deduction of 10,000Won. WOW WOW. I LOVE Discount! ....

Gmarket Event 14 Oct - 13 Nov 2010

Yoohoooo so long never update this blog.

So why am I updating now? Ohhh because I want to win the blogger contest. heheheh cheapo me. I normally purchase everything alone by myself. Dont combine orders with anyone and yet my purchase is 'smelly smelly' or at least $150SGD. :(

So i need some 'rebates' from Gmarket. Its been few mths since I last patron Gmarket merchants.. i have noticed that there's some changes to the Gmarket.

However, the changes are great. Ok now..... i hope u have attend the Gmarket event from 14 Oct - 13 Nov 2010. ...

http://english.gmarket.co.kr/challenge/neo_sangsul/html_sangsul/plan_display_69875.asp?sid=69875&pos_shop_cd=EN&pos_class_cd=90000010&pos_class_kind=T

See the 2 Download buttons? U click on it everyday to enter in this draw to win some discount coupons... well, today i pressed both of them and its 'Sorry, you didnt win' or something like that. When I click it again, the above msg was shown 'You've already done. Apply tomorrow please'. So there you go, tomorrow after 0000 then can click the 2 buttons!!!

Ok so this is shown when I click on the following day..... *drum drum*

Weee Weeeee :) I won a 10% discount coupon for purchase of more than 15,000Won but the expiry date is 15 Nov

Waaaa FINALLY! After 4mths++ since 1st order, my US order are in SG...

wowwwwwwwww

So busy with work nowadays. My SIL helped me to shipped my things out to me. I used fedex because its cheaper. Charge directly to my account. Smart sia. hehehee in SGD not USD

my things are so heavy the shipping is 200++SGD$ if I use USPS etc, it will be at least 300++SGD

I have 2 boxes of items, including 1 iRobot and filter, sponge for the iRobot...
and my super expensive leather lotions for my Chanel, LV bags. The lotion is like 200++ SGD *faint*

One swimvest thats freaking expensive but can make me float in the water and do deep water exercising like running in the pool wa wa waaaaa heehheheee getting fat so need to start exercise again to burn fats. When I move my body to the right or left, can feel this EXTRA layer of fat or skin bulging out....... opps i just tried it and its 2 layers. :(

Exercise is the only way to reducing my weight. I cannot starve myself.

My items are already with Fedex but i wont be free to receive it on Monday. So bor bian has to rearrange on Tuesday ;(

Damn I hate the Chat box! Drop a comment for Urgent msg

As above........ if anyone has urgent matters pls drop a comment as it will get to my email box.
then i will come n reply.

kaynen
I read through yr qn again.
I am not sure if its typo error on yr part when u said u ticked the item numbers. You should be ticking the Order numbers. Then click combine shipping.

If you still cant get it work, quickly send an email to Gmarket and ask them to help u with yr order. I hope everything will be solved soon. So far I have used that for at least 3x and no issues at all. My fav task is to place an oder and then combine with another order.

I am not sure if u mixed up Combine order with one order.


Scenario 1

If u just place 1 order = pay 1x = 1 box will be shipped out to you
you do not have to worry over combine shipping because all the items in this 1st order will be shipped out in 1 box. Can be from 1 or different sellers.




Scenario 2

If u placed 1 order, then placed another 1 = pay 2x seperately = 2 boxes will be shipped out to you. So for those that do not want to pay 1 more time for a freaking big box, they do Combine Shipping to combine the 2 orders (2 payments) items into 1 order. This will be shipped out in 1box only.

By clicking Combine Shipping = combine 2 orders or boxes into 1 where EMS korea will pack in 1 Parcel Box and ship just that box out.

Yea, shipping address and name etc, all orders must be same in case the computer sys recognised as another different address and end up ship 2 boxes over.



I hope u are the scenario 1 (even thought u sound like scenario 2) so u do not have to worry anything abt Combine shipping as its not applicable for you. Just relax and wait for yr items to be shipped to u

btw, pls let me know how much is being declared at yr declaration form when u received the box.

Gmarket Order......Time is not enough to place an order!

I am so busy that I dont have the time to surf gmarket

For those thats following my posts, u will soon realised that all the items are for myself. So in this case, i really have to buy plenty of things or bulky things so that I can reduce the shipping costs.

Btw, my current interest is getting Iphone related products. So for those who are interested in getting SGP iphone cases, pls drop me a comment with yr email. I will get back to u after 1st wk of May. I hope that i can place an order by 07 May 2010

Gmarket Purchases AGAIN!!!!

Hi Hi! This is my previous Gmarket orders......

See this first.... this is the previous's previous order hahahaa. Too lazy to post it up. But here it is. Just 1 pic only. Still lazy to post the rest up.








Latest Purchase
I have bought 2 tops from this seller. This sweater is really not suitable for me. :( I forgot where I placed it. Need to dig for it.

First time getting Shoes!

This is a pair of nice shoes! Too bad too small for my big size feet. My size is 38-40 depending on the cutting of the shoes. This is size 245 and i think more suitable for EUR size 37. I passed this to my mum and she said its just right for her. I am not sure if she's wearing it now. I shall check with her again. The quality of the shoes is great and its MADE IN KOREA!!!

Another gamble for clothes

This is another sweater I have bought but it doesnt look nice on me. So its hiding somewhere also. No idea where is it now. LOL. messy person always cant seem to find her things.



Bag and Wallets!

My favourite!!!

This is calfskin leather bag. Made in China and price isnt cheap. Abt SGD$100+ i think. My mum said its pretty. Thought of using this for the holiday trip but its heavy and compartment cant put in much things (including my polaroid). So i end up carrying this when i'm out for shopping or work.

The coin purse is also calf skin. Nice. The red teddy bear is a gift from seller! :P

This is a lambskin Gold wallet! The black purple purse on the top right is a key pouch. Cute!

Skin79 BB Cream

I used the BB cream for my tour and they really brighten my face. However, some of the colors are rather dark for me. I'm pretty fair. I can use Korea 01 color



Korean traditional mask

MASKS!!!! But i havent use them yet. Its natural and cheap. However, instructions is in Korean and I need someone to help me with the translation. I want to have korean's lady translucent skin. hehehehee

I have chosen green bean, algae i think and cucumber. They gave me mung beans as the sample.

Cosmetics n skincare! I split my order into 2 and get 2 sets of free gifts! I tried the falsies on the coach bus and end up missing 1 of the pair. Oppssss. Mascara is good!
