Talulabell Review ~ Native Lamps

Hello everyone,

For today, I’ll be telling you a story about my experience when I bought some native lamps online. I have been planning on redecorating my room with some native lamps for a long time and so I looked for good online shops that sell native products. I found this online shop on Facebook named Talulabell Handmade Crafts (https://www.facebook.com/TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts/). Their page looked reliable and updated and so I decided to continue scrolling down their products. I found some native lamps and I was so glad because I liked their designs and colors. I ordered ten lamps in different colors.  I messaged them on their Facebook page for my orders and I got a response after a day.


 I finished finalizing my orders and payment in one week. I paid them through BPI bank transfer because it was easier. I screenshot my proof of payment and sent it to them, after confirming my payment, they confirmed my orders. The owner was Joy Olaguera, she asked me for 2 weeks for production time since the native lamps aren’t on hand. I was in no rush and so I waited for 2 weeks. After 2 weeks, I asked for an update. The owner responded the next day, she said the native lamps weren’t done yet because dyeing takes time too. I gave her another week as an extension. After a week passed, I messaged her again. She promised me that she would send it to me after a week. I was growing impatient since I take commitments seriously. I waited for it the next week but I didn’t receive the native lamps. I was worried that I’ve been scammed. She only sent me the native lamps after another week. I was disappointed with them committing and yet breaking that commitment. 






She shipped the native lamps through JRS. I opened it after receiving it and to my shock; the native lamps were not even nicely done. The colors were lighter than the images posted. I was expecting so much since it took a lot of time before it was done. It doesn’t look durable too. I was really disappointed with the native lamps. I’ve decided to never buy from Talulabell again. I don’t think I’ll be suggesting it to my friends either.

This has been an awful experience. Just a friendly reminder to everyone, if you are planning to buy native lamps or other native stuff, makes sure to skip this one shop. Save yourself some time and disappointment.

That’s all for today guys. Until next time. Toodles.

Talulabell Review ~ Abaca Picnic Basket

Hello Loves,

Today, I’ll be sharing with you an awful experience that happened when I bought a picnic basket online. I was looking for a picnic basket for a while now because I had plans with my best friends that we’ll go on a picnic. I searched online and luckily I found this online shop on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts/), named Talulabell Handmade Crafts. I really liked their bags but most of all I was so glad they offered a picnic basket. Everything looked really nicely done and durable, well that was I thought before. I immediately ordered one; I contacted them through chat on their FB page. 





I finalized my order after a week. I paid through BPI. I sent the proof of payment just like any other online transactions, and then they confirmed the payment and orders. Joy Olaguera was the owner of Talulabell, she told me that the picnic basket is made to order, she asked for 2 weeks time for production. I gave her 2 weeks and after that, I asked for an update. She told me that it was still not done because they had a lot of orders piling up. I understood but I kind of felt disappointed because I take commitments seriously. I gave her another week as an extension because I don’t think a single picnic basket would take so much time to make. Another week passed by and then I asked for another update. It’s really hard to receive responses from them on time. She said she’ll send it to me by the next week and so I waited for another week. Unfortunately, I didn’t receive it in time for our picnic. I received it 1 week after.

I received the picnic basket via JRS. I wasn’t excited anymore because the time I needed it already passed. I opened it when it arrived and to my disappointment, the picnic basket looked terrible. There were sides that were untidily done. I don’t even think that the basket is durable at all. The picnic basket was unsatisfactory and I think I just wasted my money on nothing. 

I am never buying from Talulabell ever again. I was really upset with what happened to me. Just a friendly reminder, if you want to order baskets like this, you guys better avoid this one shop. Save your money and time, find other shops that are better than this one. 

Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. See you next blog! 

Talulabell Review ~ Empanada Wallets

Hello Bag Lovers,

Today, I’ll be sharing with you a terrible experience that happened when I bought some native wallets online. I found this online shop on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts/), named Talulabell Handmade Crafts. I really liked their designs and it looked really nicely done and durable. I was planning to buy some wallets as gifts to my friends and luckily I found their cute Empanada wallets. I ordered ten wallets, I contacted them through chat. They take a lot of time to respond.




I finalized my orders after a week. I paid through BPI. I sent the proof of payment and then they confirmed the payment and orders. Joy Olaguera (Owner) told me that the wallets are made to order, she asked for 2 weeks time. I gave her 2 weeks and after that, I asked for an update. It took a while to get a response. When I finally got a response, she told me that it was still not done. She seems pissed that I am asking for an update. She told me that the wallets were still not complete. I gave her another week as an extension because I don’t think those little wallets take so much time to make. Another week passed by and then I asked for another update. I got no response that day, I only got a response after 2 days. She said she’ll send it to me by next week and so I waited for another week.
I was surprised that what she said was true, she sent me the wallets that week. I was excited to open it but to my dismay, the wallets were disappointing. The wallets were untidily done. There were loose threads on the side. The wallets were unsatisfactory. It was not as nice as it looks on the page. 

Buying from Talulabell has given trust issues. I was really upset with what happened to me. If you ever plan on buying native products, just avoid this one. It’s for your own good. 

Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. See you next blog! 

Talulabell Review ~ Small Sunrise Bag

Hello Bag Collectors,

Another day, another blog! For today, I have a story to tell. I have experienced a traumatizing situation when I bought some native bags from an online store. I have found this online store on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts/). I was really stunned with the designs of this shop’s native bags and so I ordered two bags from them.  I ordered through their Facebook page. Responses are a bit delayed but it was fine, I’m willing to wait.




I have finished finalizing my orders within a week. I paid them through BPI transfer. After that I sent my screenshot of the payment and my orders has been confirmed, the owner, Joy Olaguera asked for 2 weeks time before it could be shipped because the bags are made to order that is why it needs time to be weaved. I waited for 2 weeks before I asked for an update. I didn’t want to rush them by checking every time because I didn’t want it to affect what they are doing with my orders. It took days to get a reply; she said that the bags were still not done; she said she could ship it the next week. I waited another week before I asked for another update. There was no response and I knew then that the bags weren’t shipped that week. I was already getting impatient because I have been waiting for too long already than expected. I only received the bags the fifth week. That was too long from what she had committed. 




She shipped the bags via JRS. I immediately opened the bags after receiving it and to my frustration; the bags that was sent to me was a different color from the ones I ordered. It was untidily done and it looks like it’s not durable at all. I was disappointed with the bags because I really liked the designs. I didn’t message Talulabell anymore for because I had enough of disappointments already.

Buying from Talulabell has left me an awful experience. Just a friendly reminder, before buying anything, make sure that the shop your buying from is legit and trustworthy. I hope this won’t happen to anyone. It’s better to avoid this shop too, for your own good.

Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. Bye.

Talulabell Review ~ Sarah Bag

Hello Bag Lovers,

I’m here today to share what I experienced when I bought bags from an online shop. The shop’s name was Talulabell Handmade Crafts. I found their page on Facebook, they offered different native products like bags, pouches and other baskets. I was really fascinated with their bags at first. I found a lot of really colorful and cute bags on their albums. I have chosen two designs of bags which I will show later. I messaged them on their Facebook page. I got a response the next day and from there I finalized my orders.



I finished finalizing my orders after a few days. I sent my payment through BPI deposit. I pictured my payment and sent it to them as proof. Joy Olaguera was the one who confirmed my orders and told me to wait for 2 weeks. I waited for 2 weeks until I messaged her again. She responded late again, but it wasn’t a problem for me. She told me that she would ship the bags next Tuesday. I waited for an update on a receipt and tracking number but I didn’t get any. I messaged her again after a week because there were no updates of my orders. I was getting upset already because I have been expecting it for a long time and she doesn’t even update me. I got my order after another week. Imagine, it took 1 month to receive two bags. 



The bags were sent through JRS. I instantly opened my orders and to my shock, the bags I ordered looked different from what I was expecting based on the images on the website and page. It was untidily done. There were some unrefined parts on the side. It was really upsetting; having to wait for a long time for nothing. I lost interest on the bags after seeing its quality. I was so sad.   

We all should be aware of the online shops we are ordering from. We should make sure it’s reliable. If you are ever looking for this kind of bags, you guys better leave this one out of your list. 

Here are their pages, just be aware:

Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. 

Talulabell Review ~ Cataleya Bags

Hello Fellow Hoarders,

Here I am to share with you my experience when I bought bags online. I encountered this page on Facebook TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts, and they were selling native items that I thought were really nice. I looked them on the internet to make sure that they are legit and gladly I found their blog talulabellblog. I had some bags that I wanted to order, I messaged them through Facebook. The response was a bit long but it’s okay since I’m not in a rush. I ordered five Cataleya Bags in colors green, fuchsia pink, red, turquoise, and yellow.




I finished finalizing my order after a week. I sent my payment through bank transfer because was easier. I screenshot my payment and sent it to them for proof. The owner, Joy Olaguera was the one who confirmed it and told me to wait for 2 weeks before shipment because the bags were made to order and it takes time because it’s handmade. I waited for 2 weeks until I messaged her again. She responded late again. She told me that the tentative shipment of the bags will be next week. I waited another week to pass. I was already expecting an update the next week but there was nothing. I decided to message her again and as expected I got the response the next day. I was getting annoyed now I have been waiting for a long time and she doesn’t even update me. I got my order, two weeks after what she had promised. 




She sent the bags through Phil Post. It took around a week before it arrived. I immediately opened my orders and to my dismay, the bags I ordered were disappointing. It was messily done. One of the handles broke. Another button also fell. It was really devastating; imagine waiting for something for a long time and it ends up disappointing you. I’ll never buy again from this shop.   




Talulabell made me question the reliability of every online shop now. It was really a bad experience and I hope no one will experience. You guys better leave this one shop out of your list. You can save money and time.



Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. Bye!

TalulaBell Review ~ STICK BAGS

Hello Bag Hoarders,



Let me share with you guys a horrible experience when I bought native bags online. I have been looking for a good source of native bags because I was planning on selling native bags online too. I found a page talulabellblog which has nice native bags. Before planning to be a reseller, I wanted to try first their bags just to make sure that the bags are high-quality. I immediately looked for their page on Facebook which is Talulabell Handmade Crafts TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts. I inquired through chat and what I have noticed was they were very late in responding to messages.


I was able to finalize my orders within a week time. I’ve sent my payment via bank transfer because it would save me time. After that, I sent the proof of payment and waited for confirmation. The owner confirmed my payment and orders. Joy Olaguera (Owner) asked for 2 weeks before she can ship the bags because she said it takes time to make it. I was thinking this time that if it takes too long, it would be a problem for my customers if I were to be a reseller. (I bought 4 bags) I waited for 2 weeks until I asked for an update. Just like before, she responded late again. When I finally got a response, her tone was a bit off. She seems irritated with me for asking for an update. I let this one go since I thought she was just stressed with work. Joy told me that the bags were not yet finished and she asked for one more week. I gave her what she asked for. Another week passed by and I messaged her for an update, I got the response the next day. I was getting irritated now because she had promised 2 weeks, and then asked for another week and after that, the bags were still not done. It was way too long and so I asked for a refund. She didn’t allow me to have a refund since the bags were already in production. This is where I decided to just wait for the bags and just forget reselling from this supplier. 



She sent the bags through JRS. It took a couple of days before it arrived to me. To my frustration, it was different from the images I’ve seen on their page and website. It was untidily done. The stick as the handle was unrefined. I was saddened with the bags because I have been waiting for it for a long time and they were unacceptable. I had expected a lot on these bags given the long time it was done but it’s not even worth my time and money. It was a right decision to just forget reselling from this supplier.

  

Buying from Talulabell has given me a bad experience. Just a reminder to all, if you want to buy some good native bags and stuff, just leave this one shop out of your list. Save yourself from disappointment and a bad experience.



Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. Toodles

Talulabell Review - TOP BAGS

Hello Bag Hoarders,
Let me tell you guys how disappointed I was with my experience when I bought some native bags online. In search of the greatest native bags on the internet, I was able to encounter this website which I thought was a great one because they were selling very nice designs of native bags talulabellblog  I was really excited and immediately looked for their page on Facebook which is Talulabell Handmade Crafts TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts, and ordered some bags through chat. For my first inquiries, I received a response only after a day. I guess they were too busy that is why it takes so long to respond and so I ignored that thought.


My orders were finalized within a week time. The payment is through BPI because I thought it would save me time. I sent the proof of payment and then afterward Joy confirmed it. Joy Olaguera (Owner) asked for 2 weeks time before it can be shipped due to the time asked by the weavers to make the bags. (I bought 4 bags, which I will show later) I waited for 2 weeks until I asked for an update again because I didn’t want to pressure them asking every time for my orders. It took days again before I got a response. When I finally got a response, I kind of didn’t like her tone. She seems irritated that I am asking for an update, but if you guys were me I know you’d want to be updated too, right? She told me that the bags were still for production and she was asking for another week. I told her that I understood because I know making the bags might take time because it’s handmade. Another week has passed and I asked for another update, and again as expected as expected the response took a day. I was growing impatient because she committed that I’d get my orders after a week and I still didn’t. I have received it after a month. That was way too long from what she had committed to.
She sent the bags through Phil Post from Bicol. I took around a week before it arrived to me. To my disappointment, the bags were not as nice as it was on the images. It was untidily done as well. I was saddened with the bags because I have waited a long time to receive them and they were very unsatisfactory. I had high hopes about these bags but it’s not even worth the time and money.  

Buying from Talulabell has given trust issues. A friendly reminder, if you want to buy some good native bags and stuff, you better leave this one shop out. It wouldn’t be worthy of your money and time. Save yourself from disappointment.

Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog guys. See you next blog!

Hi there Bag Hoarders,

I’m here to share with you an unsatisfying incident I experienced while purchasing online. I was looking for a good seller online for some native bags and crafts and I was pretty much lucky at first to have found  Talulabell with these kinds of stuff.  I got excited and looked for them on Facebook as well     TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts n which I ordered there through chat. It took a couple of days before my orders were processed. If I could rate their response I’d give it a low score, it takes a day or two before you get a response from their page but because I’m an eager beaver I had a long patience because I want those native bags so bad.




I have sent my payment via BPI because it would save me time because I could just transfer it online and also I’d saved extra fees from other remittance centers. I confirmed my orders and sent the owner a screenshot of my bank transfer payment. Joy Olaguera, the owner said that it will take a week or two before it can be shipped because the weavers should be given enough time to make the bags. (I bought 5 Pili Bags) Patience is a virtue, and I really wanted those bags and so I’ve waited patiently for  2 weeks max time that was asked of me. After 2 weeks, I asked for an update about my orders. As expected, it took days to get a response. She responded that the weavers are still working on the bags and she asked for another week. I understood the situation and so I gave them another week. The 1 week has passed and waiting for an update about the bags if they’re ready to be shipped. Nothing arrived until the next weeks. It took a month for me to get these bags and I was really hoping it would be reasonable and worthy of the time I’ve waited.





The bags were shipped via JRS. When I received the bags, I was excited to open it and examine what I have bought. To my disappointed, the bags weren’t as nice as it was on the pictures. One handle was loose and the quality was not satisfying at all. I was very unsatisfied with the bags, I’ve waited a long time to receive these and I’ve spent my money on something, not that worthy of. I’m never going to buy again from that online shop.



Buying form Talulabell gave me some trust issues. Just a friendly reminder, if you guys want to look for some native bags and crafts, better avoid this one. It will save you from disappointments.

Until my next blog. I hope you all learned something from this blog.
