Re: Clothes from HinaB
no answer, i guess!
I have no personal experience BUT I've heard that the end products are not as amazing as what Hina posts on her website.
The material she uses is not of fine quality...neither is the embellishments/trims any better...
I liked a couple of dresses on that website too and was so close to ordering...but then out of the blue I started googling for reviews from any previous customers...I read more negative than any positive reviews...
Re: Clothes from HinaB
I also think the charges of Hinab are sky high!
Re: Clothes from HinaB
who is hinab?:o
Re: Clothes from HinaB
It’s a website…
The owner copies all the designer labels like HSY, Karma, Nikki Nina…the list goes on…
They work out of some warehouse in Karachi…

^ oh ok, thank-you choozy (lol!)
Re: Clothes from HinaB
hinab does replicas of big designer names from paki and charges a load. Why not just get a replica made elsewhere if you like a design for cheaper if you have access
Re: Clothes from HinaB
Thanks Choozy, I was about to order an outfit from her. I sent a pic to her it was a semi formal and i think she quoted me way tooo high.Good to know the quality isn't good .
Re: Clothes from HinaB
here is something I posted earlier about begum's experience with hinab. she listened to someone who had bought some stuff from her and placed orders, I had said not to, and this 'designer' wants money wired in her acct rather than take credit cards cuz i guess she does not want visa to kick her butt.
so my wife had an interesting episode with another 'boutique' , where the specific stuff she ordered was not sent. I mean if you have a picture on your website that is what the person is buying, not some approximation of it.
so begum demanded her money back, and these are the options the 'designer' had .. my begums responses to those are in paranthesis as well..
1) why dont you sell them (why should I, its not MY product)
2) it is so popular, no one has complained about it before (well then you can sell it to the next person who wants it since its so popular)
3) but if you dont compare it to the picture, you have to admit that they look good (..to you maybe, but its not what was ordered)
4) let me see if someone else wants them (even if no one wants it, its your problem not mine)
5) but if I refund you and you return teh clothes I am still facing a loss for the shipping costs (well to avoid this in future, send the right merchandise)
6) my website says no refunds or exchanges (it does not say that we will send something different than what you are ordering)
I mean what part of the logic dont they understand that if u have a picture on your website and people order, that is what they are ordering. u cant send wrong colour, wrong embroidery, wrong length, heck even wrong fabric and expect that the customer will take it.
They try to turn their problem into your problem. That is why I refuse to do business with desi sites based in pakistan. its never as simple as professional and as convenient with doing business here. u order something, and u get it and its not teh right item, u return it.
Begum feels she can reason with the business, and I have told her not to have high hopes and use this as a learning experience and dont send money to theri acct, use a credit card atleast and use the power of amex or visa to stiff em if they cant deliver on their promise.
Re: Clothes from HinaB
here si what begum wrote further noting her expeience with this crook...agreeing with teh views of a poster
Then the try to make you feel guilty acting as though they are doing you a favour ... when in fact they are just performing a paid service ... if you want to do me a favour, do it for free!
^^^^
I couldn't agree with you more! My "designer" was saying the same thing...I went full on Shaniqua on her this morning and said that these suits were not a gift to me from her. I PAID for them in advance, based on ordering off a picture. She CHOSE to substitute colors, fabrics, and styles on her own to keep HER costs down. I don't have to be happy with what she chose, because it is NOT what I ordered!
She told me that all she can do is try to "convince me" to like them. I told her that's not going to happen! Finally after 40 minutes of backa nd forth, she will refund me for oe suit, re-make another (she made it SUPER short and disregarded my measurement details) and the third one she is going to "think" about.
Re: Clothes from HinaB
am scared :(
Re: Clothes from HinaB
You shouldn't trust any of these rip-off fake sites. Although for some reason I feel like 786shop.com wouldn't be as big a rip-off since they sell a lot of their own stuff too...but i don't know.i have had a bad experience with zarian.pk and had to go through paypal to get a refund. so i don't trust any paki companies anymore.
Re: Clothes from HinaB
sad, seems like there is no accountability whatsever with these people, they are using the internet to con ppl of their money, thinking desis abroad won’t really know the difference 
Re: Clothes from HinaB
Please don't waste your money - the clothes only look 75% like the pictures. The pictures are not her design - so they will try to fake as as much as they can. You will be disappointed because they for that price and shipping you could have bought something better than you liked
Re: Clothes from HinaB
my advise is to get it made at some local darzi or somewhere you can get to easily and go back for regular fittings and quality assessments. help them choose the material and embellishment and the embroidery thread/ sequins/ beads etc you want to ensure that they are of good quality and the embroidery is of high standard
Re: Clothes from HinaB
please try my stuff..its original and of excellent quality...
