Im taking the step

Okay- now that i have ordered all the stuff- i guess i will be back on this thread once i start receiving my orders which i estimate to be the end of december.

Also Ladies can we please keep this to what it is i.e the quality, customer service accuracy etc on the various sites instead of going gossipy about who is pregnant or not?

Re: Im taking the step

Some how I have a feeling that at the end of this whole little experiment we're going to hear great things about sila.com and not so great things about the other websites. Now sooraj-mukhi before you jump down my throat remember this is just my personal opinion.

Re: Im taking the step

im still trying to understand WHY you would risk $1000 ????

Re: Im taking the step

Me too! It doesn’t make any sense why anyone in their right mind would want to spend $1000 to do research just so they could tell other people which website was the best??? Seeing how sooraj-mukhi is getting upset about us mentioning that the model on sila.com looks pregnant and not to mention the fact that sila also changed their pictures after i mentioned the pregnancy on this form I think she’s either the model or works for them. It’s the only thing that makes sense.

Re: Im taking the step

Hey Meena- i chose to do this just to see how these places actually turn out to be. i Have shopped online from VS, Bananarepublic and more for 4 years now and i wanted to have a desi experience because i see a lot of you dissing desi businesness and i chose to trust my own experience. Thus the investment of my money-
Now about the pregnancy or lack of it part. Let me just say that i have watched my older sister just go through a very very rough pregnancy recently and its very nasty of females to be so coarse about it for another female. Plus how does it in any way relate to this thread? (that is the only point i had raised earlier too)
Work for them- Perhaps one in a 100 if i was in texas & knew any thing about fashion designing. Model- not in this life, im too short plus my mother would not approve. My getting upset- its just plain text, perhaps you are reading too much between the lines to make some unfulfilled desire come through.

"perhaps you are reading too much between the lines to make some unfulfilled desire come through."

Why would any of this make any of my unfulfilled desires come true? What would get from this? Do what ever you want. I'm not buying your crap. Leave me out of your so called "research".

Re: Im taking the step

soorja mukhi....do u plan to return these dresses in case they arent of great quality ??

Re: Im taking the step

Meena- why are you making this thread a battle of the approaches? There is no compulsion, so no one has to be part of any thing they wish not to. Also, please dont swear its not very lady like. :)

Re: Im taking the step

Yes Shweet that was part of the process. For the pieces that i have ordered with no changes, i have a flexible return policy from all three places. So its not only quality, if there is a descripency of depiction, details, if the sizes are not accurate etc i will be excersing the return or exchange policy.

Re: Im taking the step

Has anyone ever bought anything from www.hinab.com? I do like some of their designs. Just saw a couple of nice outfits under Casual and Light Formal, I haven’t checked out the other categories yet.
