Talulabell Review ~ Ella Bag

Hello Guys,

Today I’ll be giving a review on an online shop and their abaca bags that I bought. I found this online shop on Facebook named Talulabell Handmade Crafts (https://www.facebook.com/TalulaBellHandmadeCrafts/). If you search for handmade crafts on facebook, you’ll see them on top. The page looked presentable and trustworthy and so I thought that they’d be good. While scrolling down their post, I have found some really nice designs of abaca bags. I downloaded the images and sent them a message that I’ll be ordering the bags. They responded to me the next day.




My orders were finalized after a week. I paid my orders through bank deposit since it has no extra charge. I took a picture of my receipt as my proof of payment and sent it to them. Afterwards, they confirmed my orders. I was having my transactions with the owner, Joy Olaguera. She told me that the bags will be for production since it isn’t on hand at the moment. She said they’ll be able to finish the bags within two weeks. It’s a good thing that I wasn’t in a hurry. After two weeks, I asked for an update. She responded the late and her tone was somehow irritated, she said the bags weren’t still done. Though uncomfortable by the tone of her message, I waited for another week. After the third week, I messaged her again but she did not respond. On the fourth week, I still haven’t received the bags. I was already thinking that I have been scammed. I didn’t expect it to happen since they look so legit on their page. I messaged them again and again until they finally responded. They were able to send the bags in the fifth week.

She shipped the abaca bags via JRS. I instantly opened it after I received it so that I could see the quality of the bags. To be honest, I was really disappointed with the bags I ordered. It was messily done, there were also some unfinished stitches on the side. It doesn’t look durable at all as well as it looked like it was done in a rush. Not to mention having to communicate with the Talulabell was really hard. They also don’t take their commitment seriously. All in all, it was a bad experience for me.


I won’t be recommending you this online shop at all. I hope nothing like this happens to you guys.

That’s it for today’s review. I hope you learned something today. See you next time.
