Shoutout to my therapist she tries so hard to keep up with me. I explained the concept of spell slots vs cantrips as a disability metaphor to her and she took notes. On a pad of paper. About the spellcasting mechanics of dungeons and dragons.

“Before we delve any further, it’s worth noting that lolita fashion has nothing to do with the Western sexual connotations linked to Vladimir Nabokov’s novel of the same name. No, in Japanese culture, the term lolita represents cuteness, elegance and modesty, hence its awesome aesthetic.
“All revved up and ready for a cuteness overload? Want to understand more about lolita fashion and the culture surrounding it? Here’s a brief timeline of events for your reading pleasure.”

Vograce Acrylic Charm review
By @bunchabears. Originally posted on AANI and mirrored here with permission.
Customer Service
Using Alibaba, I contacted Vograce, whose manufacturing company is WanYiwu Weichuang E-Commerce. Their customer service and response time is very good and quick!! I sent a quote inquiry and recieved a response within the day. The only issue I can see is the time difference and possible miscommunication (located in China), but as far as I’ve experienced, there hasn’t been any issue with language barriers.
They were very friendly and made sure to answer all my questions to the best of their abilities.
Pricing
I requested a quote for a quantity of 150 3-inch, double-sided acrylic charms.
The design itself was two charms, 1 in. and 2 in., connected in the middle, so I technically paid for two charms per unit.
1" charm (with a keyring provided) was 1.40 USD
2" charm (with connected rings provided) was 1.60 USD
In total, the unit price was 3.00 USD. With shipping, about 50 USD, the total came to 508 USD.
All I needed was to provide a PSD of back and front designs, with outlines and hole markings. Standard charm design procedure, I believe?
Turnaround Time
They sent me a proof for me to confirm, and once I did, they immediately began production. Production time was estimated at 3-5 business days. Shipping time was about 4-8 standard business days. So I sent payment on April 13th, and my charms arrived today, April 25th. So all things considered, 12 days for that amount of work is pretty impressive!!
Payment
Since Alibaba is used more as a communication service for a lot of these companies, they requested that I send payment through Paypal to their account. Seeing as how I was going to put down a pretty hefty sum to a foreign company, I was a little hesitant!!
They also requested proof of purchase (at least two screenshots of the transaction page and confirmation page on PayPal). I actually almost forgot to take a screenshot of the transaction, so don’t forget to do that loll
All in all, I feel like the transaction went pretty well!!
Product Quality
I realize this is the biggest issue some people might have with using a cheaper service. As far as I’m concerned, I’d give the finished product a 4/5!!
The charms definitely aren’t *Perfect*, but that’s probably me being fussy. The charms are 1/8 inch thick clear acrylic, with solid cut edges.
The quality of the design print is pretty darn good!! I made sure to send the design at 350dpi because I’m a stickler for detail otl
The connecting rings are basic metal links. I did have to go through several with a pair of pliers to properly close the links, but I guess that’s to be expected.
You’re given a pretty huge selection of keyring designs to choose from (and I believe they’re all about the same pricing), like rope straps, keyrings, clamps, and heart/star shaped rings.
Each charm comes with a protective film on every side to make sure they don’t get scratched on their way to you. I prematurely panicked because I thought the scratches and bubbles on the protective film were permanent, but realized I could peel them off.
So all in all, the print job and cut are pretty darn good.
Overall Review
As stated above, I would give the service and product a 4/5!
There are definitely some risks with services that aren’t well-established/big brand companies, but I think it was well worth it.
Pros
Quick and friendly customer service
fast production time/shipping
Very good pricing for what you get
Decent quality
Cons
the risk you run with your work possibly being stolen, the usual
Some VERY slight marks/scratches, but not hugely noticeable unless you’re staring at it intensely
You definitely get what you pay for, but considering I’m only paying 3 dollars for what is essentially two double-sided charms of pretty good quality, I’d say it’s well worth it if you plan on quick production and sales!! I will definitely be using their services again in the near future. :>
