I dont do a lot of online shopping but I did buy two pairs of boots from Pennangalan.co.uk. Total amount spent was around $380.

I prefer to know how it fits before I buy it... rarely will I take the risk.

does jewelry count as a clothing store cause if it does definitively bodyartforms.com other then that ebay!

Probably should rename this thread "fashion / clothing / accessories store" rather than just clothing

I get most of the clothes I buy online at Goodgoth.com.

Goodgoth.com

*makes link and clicks to check it out*

Leatherup.com for all my riding gear. For what it sells its dirt cheap :). Everything else I like to try on.

I've not actually DONE it but one thing I've always thought about doing is to go to the store and try stuff on / check sizes and what not, then order online afterward. This is usually because they so rarely have the sizes I need, but it could be done for frugality reasons too. (been wearing the same 2 pairs of jeans and 1 pair of pants for like 3 years so its not a super high priority for me (due to the cash outlay not that i don't want to get new stuff))

Over the years, I have spent a fortune ordering clothing from Lip Service. My boots usually come from Good Goth.

Actually, I just wear through them far too quickly. I'm on my third pair of the exact same boots and I just discovered a hole in one of them.

Wow. Although I guess I don't have much experience with fancy boots (other than looking at them a lot) all of mine except for one pair which went missing *shakes angry fist at the universe* have been basically just "work boots" which happen to fit the theme around here, so luckily for my empty pockets, last a long time.

*wishes happy thoughts toward the longevity of your current boots*

*goes to discountstripper.com* ahahah no judgement! just more googling.

I spend a lot of money on ebay. I just got my very first steel boned corset [i'm a grown up goth now!] on Ebay for 16 dollars. because I am awesome. :) I buy almost all of my clothing at the salvation army, with the small amount that I get on clearance at hot topic [staples such as crappy plastic corsets, tutus, and stuff to rip up.]

I pretty much buy band shirts or little boy's shirts, cut off the collar and rip them up. and wear that and tutus. and i'm set.

I bought my first pair of boots at salvation army, they're a knock off doc brand and 8 holes. 20 bucks.

My fashion money pit of choice is mainly eBay for my lipstick, accessories, costumes and T.U.K. boots. My shoes are Demonia from pleaserusa.com. My jeans come from generally clearance items at HOTTOPIC.com. But I do generally tend to drop the most amount of cash/credit on eBay :biggrin:

Well with my size it can be difficult to find much in my sizes though I am fortunate that when I want to browse or buy a few bits here and there if I have some money I have. These are shops in Leipzig that cater to goths, metal heads, and punks. Its my size factor that frustrates me the most because I ogle all the gorgeous clothing that even if I could afford it is out of reach. I live where theres a plethora shops. So close yet so far away lol.

Wonderland 13

EMP

DarXity

Queen of Darkness

Blacky Pearl

Then online sites like Darkages.de, Black Impressions, Xtrax, Mainstream-Killer-Shop.de

Of course Etsy as well for more unique and beautiful pieces which I mainly just dream about and well can get more custom stuff as well that may cater to big goths.

Then when WGT comes the Black Market is full of vendors from all over the world including the above listed and other artisans including fangsmiths and various specialty goods and services.

Etsy has become quite the source for my online shopping needs. I do still use many other services and stores especially locally with the plethora of local goth shops but when I want something custom or unique I go to Etsy. I just spent like $500 on 2 custom pieces form Hysteria Machine and well shes even throwing in a few accessories free that normally go for about $25-$40 which is awesome. Got most my husbands outfit from Ebay and Darkages.de and accessories locally.

      what are you doing right now? (cont'd)

      By TronRP · Posted

      Been on auto insurance quotes for the past 7 hours trying to  assist my niece in finding affordable coverage.  This sucks for young people in Michigan.  Then it's compounded by living in the city of Detroit.

      Is this @cthulhu63's doing? I remember the FB post gauging interest but I didn't realize it was big enough for Mlive to catch it.

      What are you about to go do?

      By TronRP · Posted

      ~~~~~ What angers me the most about the entire incident is that it shouldn't have even been a thing.  I take my vehicle in for service every year and they are supposed to do specific point inspections for each maintenance check.  My brake line was completely rusted through and finally gave up the goat.  When I mentioned that at the service center and also how they said I was supposed to have an undercarriage zinc wash, the first thing the rep said was, "Well, you know how the weather is here and how the rain water and salt can corrode the underside of vehicles."    Yeah, I almost lost it.  That was the reason for me having the anti-corrosion wash done!  Literally, all 3 brake lines were 100% corroded on the external with the one eaten completely through.   I told them that thanks to this, when I get my vehicle back, I'm going to be under there with my inspection mirror because now I don't trust anything.  She then goes on to tell me that I hadn't been there since September of 2022.  But a service should last longer than one month and my vehicle started slowly losing break fluid less than 6 months later with being driven half the usual time and distance due to a change in Trene's doctors being closer to the Detroit city limit.   I have always worked on my vehicles myself.  Growing up, my father was an off and on mechanic and my brother was a military mechanic, so working on vehicles is practically in my blood.  The only thing I don't do is undercarriage stuff because I do not have the equipment for it, but I have a shade-tree mechanic neighbor who is willing to help me out with that.  My dealership warranty was up in 2019, so I have no issues with handling things myself going forward.   ~~~~~ My sister's situation was caused by an accident and the last thing I need is for her to lose faith in my abilities due to someone else's inability to properly do their job because auto places generally have an unspoken rule that they can get more work and money of off female drivers because we don't understand our vehicles and need their assistance.
