READ!! Results Re: Restocking the Sleeping Masks.

"I did my beeee-est...
but I guess my best wasn't good enough~~"

Well, the result of our quest to restock the sleeping masks came earlier than expected. The supplier was quick to reply, and so we have 2 sets of good and bad news. Brace yourselves, dears!

GOOD NEWS # 1:
We were able to restock the sleeping masks, and they are now in transit! *throws confetti* In a week's time, it shall be delivered to Gen's doorstep (along with some other new products to maximize the costly shipping fee).

BAD NEWS # 1:
The supplier only gave us 15 pcs. of sleeping masks! TT__TT" Apparently, we were right when we deduced that the sleeping masks would get sold out from him/her fast, and the 15 pcs. that he/she gave us are the only leftovers. Thankfully, he/she seemed to take pity on us and our predicament so he/she just sold the 15 pcs. to us for a discounted price (the MOR price). Refer to the picture above for the available designs.

Again, we're very sorry about this. We know we already told everyone before not to expect too much, but we still can't help but feel guilty. Really, we did everything to get your orders. ;___;

Anyway, right before we closed the deal, the supplier told us something.

GOOD NEWS # 2:
There is a __CHANCE__ that the sleeping masks can be reproduced. No, don't rejoice yet.

BAD NEWS # 2:
As mentioned, it is only a possibility, and it would take another 2-3 months for us to confirm this. That's a long time; we're not even sure if we can afford to order them by then.

We're sure by now, most of you reading this are already discouraged. We are too! We wanted to get 80 pcs., d*mmit! >__<

But we do hope you dears understand.

The new batch of the sleeping masks shall be uploaded some time this week with prior notice to the people who submitted their numbers. Even if your desired quantity and designs are not there, we still wish you make a purchase. Don't let our efforts be in vain, please? :3

For the nth time, thank you and sorry.

XOXO,

READ!! On Restocking the Sleeping Masks.

Honestly! We've never expected our Funny Sleeping Masks to be such a hit. In 3 days, all 100 on-hand pieces that we have are gone! @___@"

Some clients have expressed grief that they were too late to get a piece or two for themselves. Some PM'd us to request that we restock. Some texted us and almost begged us to restock. Some had even gone as far as to harass us that we restock SOON. "Restock, restock, or you're a bogus seller!", is what they said.

If we look at this on the funny side (which we won't - promise!), we'd say there seems to be a lot of people having sleeping troubles these days. But these buyers appear to see this issue as gravely serious, so we're trying to look at the it in the same light as well. We love our buyers after all, and we don't want to break any of them hearts by not heeding their request.

With this, please give us 2-3 week TOPS to contact our supplier and see if he/she could accommodate sending us another batch of sleeping masks. We're not promising any fruitful results though, because his/her goods get sold out fast - one of the main reasons why we rarely restock any of our products (when his/her stocks get cleared up, we'd have to search for another supplier - a REAL challenge). And if ever we do, we can't guarantee what designs we will get.

Anyway, if you're one of those people who'd love to get their hands on the famed sleeping masks, please comment with your NAME, CONTACT NO/S. and ESTIMATED NO. OF BUYS (+ DESIGN). Make sure to spread the word to everyone you know who might be interested, because we need to reach the supplier's MOR (minimum order requirement) of 100 pcs. before he/she can make a deal with us. Any updates shall be sent to your mobile numbers in 2 weeks.

Let's all cross our fingers now!

XOXO,

A New Shipping Partner! =)

Hello, girls!

Starting this month (April 2010), "Curls & Twirls" shall be relying on the service of a new courier for Metro Manila customers, "MC Express". This shall be our alternative for Xend Express, especially when shipping bulkier packages that cannot fit in their standard-sized pouch. Their rates are notably cheaper as well, so that's a huge plus for our beloved patrons that are residing within Metro Manila. :) No more paying for double the shipping rate when a buyer splurges on our shop and his/her purchases end up not fitting even Air21's large pouch. MC's large pouch is bigger, after all. And as mentioned, they cost LESS.

Of course, we shall still use Xend Express, Air21 and 2GO, but the decision really depends on the buyer. We're still thinking if we should continue using G-Cash CLICK! and Delbros, because our last transaction with them left us pretty disappointed and bemused. ^^

Anyway, we'll update you with another journal entry when we've finalized our plans. Tweaking the shop's layout due to these change of couriers and payment modes will probably commence in a day or so, so please expect some "Under Construction" signs here and there and unavailable sections as well.

Thank you!

XOXO,

Lag. Lag. LAG.

Hi, Loves!

As you can see, the Package Nursery hasn't been updated in ages, and we've been seriously lagging behind the shop's news and monthly updates. We're really sorry about this, but ever since we did the "Triple Holiday Sale!!!" last year, things have been quite hectic for us - with the sudden rush of Christmas orders, bulk purchases and our habitual flight abroad for inventory updates amidst them all. Everything just went out of control, so we kind of lost track of what we've been doing, except that we had to fulfill each and every order and demand in our record. ^^;

Anyway, we hope this isn't a crucial issue to everyone concerned, but we shall resume taking pictures of your orders (as requested) and posting them in the Package Nursery section on April 2010 onwards. We still have the images of the orders made since October 2009, but we couldn't find the time to post them for their respective owners because we were too busy. A few months have already gone by, and we know this shouldn't be such a concern any more, but we just felt the need to address the issue. We wouldn't want to make our beloved patrons feel that we're ignoring them after all. :)

On the brighter side though, we'll be posting 2 new products some time today. Summer is here, and we've found the perfect props for cool vacationers out there! Stick around, okay?

XOXO,
