Updated- It does ship clothes, but they're very poorly made and get a lot of bad reviews.

I've read that a lot of chinese places make cheap replicas of brand name lolita dresses and stuff. I've also read that sometimes places aren't legit. I should look out for small websites and stuff.
I'm thinking that since this place is a chinese wholesale place and it's pretty big, that it's legit.
I mean, I've been recommended to other wholesale chinese websites like this one.

Thanks guys, I would have made a big mistake. Huh?

I just wish I could get some of those dresses off-brand.

Shameless Plug Time:

Try Mashimaro Girl. We do custom replicas on request, just provide us with photos. We can't match Milanoo's prices, but our quality is way better, and waaaaay less hit-or-miss in terms of tailoring.

@ spuntino- lol, saw some "shameless plugs" for mashimarogirl before but the links wouldn't work for me. I looked again today. Might get me wunna them wigs... Who does all the sewing?

And yeah, I've heard the reviews about Milanoo. Usually easier to bad than good reports, so ratios are anybody's guess sometimes. But there are no good reports... And I was shocked at the behavior of the Milanoo reps in their replies. Is that for real, or is someone just trying to make them look really really bad?

Nope. That was for real.

And Mashimaro Girl dresses are sewn by a team of tailors that Fei hired. We have our own little studio in her home town set up and we communicate with them by webcam/skype.

I am a person that has just decided to dress lolita after being in LOVE with it for a while, but I simply cannot pay that much. Is it really that bad to try milanoo ?

So I got off gaia for a sec to do some research, and I found a BETTER seller, and it was on ebay! This person has a very high score 99.7% on ebay, and the reviews are all positive! Check them out! http://myworld.ebay.com/cosplay007/
The stuff is sooo cute and people wrote that the items look like the picture, exactly! oooooh I can't wait to order a dress after I save up enough money. It's so cheap,too! i hope this helps some of you guys on a budget like me ;^(

I wouldn't trust any store who use stolen pictures, a lot of these pictures look like they came from mary magdalene or f+f, with change of background.
