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.
