Roseroseshop order revealed and reviewed
Today is a good day!Any day is a good day if you have a parcel from Korea standing at your door step!
This is the second time I have ordered from Roseroseshop, well third if you count the ebay purchase I did from them before.
So far I have been pretty satisfied.
I chose to order from them since they often have the best prices, sales at all times, and not too unreasonable shipping costs. For my packages I only order so much so I pay the cheapest shipping cost of 13.15$. This doesn't seem to depend on the weight but on the item number in your cart. Either way I fill my cart with bits and bobs and add and take away things until I have a reasonable variety that stays within that shipping cost.

Roseroseshop does give you samples, but only if you request them. And since I assume everyone wants samples it seems like an unnecessary step to add. Just give them to everyone and all will be happy.
A few days ago they seem to have implemented a new rule that the more you spend the more samples you get, I just dont know if it will be automatic or you still have to request them.
I placed my order the 7th of April and received the shipping notification on the 9th, which is pretty fast and efficient. Tracking number was included of course, even though the German postal system seems to not keep track of Korean parcels at all and they always arrive to my house before they appear in their system. I received my order today the 22nd of April which is totally reasonable from an order from Korea. I ordered a parcel a few days earlier from another shop and am still waiting for it.

The only problem is this, and unfortunately I have heard this complaint before.
I carefully choose all my items to get the most out of my shipping. I spend a lot of thought and time on that. But on April 11th I received an email telling me one of the items I purchased was sold out. It seems to be the norm that Roseroseshop sends those notifications out after sending out your parcel, which gives you no chance to change your order. If I would know that in advanced I would have added another item to my order to replace the one that was out of stock. I would much prefer that my order is shipped out a few days later with all the items I want, then to rush it out making me feel like I missed out on something.
I really do not think it is ok. There is only so many times I can order stuff from Korea and I want it to be perfect! I am not blaming them for out of stock items, just for illogical organization.
So without the whole communication fiasco I would give these guys a 6 out of 6. But knowing that in this case my face is missing out on some serious sleeping pack action I must say 5 out of 6.
