🎉Alpacasso Party🎉 Due to being sick and overloaded with work, we haven't had many opportunities to travel or do something fun with our alpacasso, but about a month ago (Sept. 12), it was our boyfriend's mom's birthday! She lives all the way in Hong Kong so we couldn't celebrate in person with her...but we did get her this keroppi cake (she loves keroppi) and had an alpacasso party for her! She really liked it! #officialkawaiiday We can't wait to give it to her when she comes to visit the USA this winter! ❤️ (we got this cake from Rosy's Garden if anyone is interested)
🍜 Feeling Sick 🍜 It's been so rainy here in our state! The windy and wet weather got us sick...so what's best way to treat a cold? A hot delicious soup! （＾∇＾）#officialkawaiiday This soup was called Cream of Crab (?) it was a special at our local diner! This is the first time we tried it, but we are already in love with it! ❤️
🌟Shop Update🌟 The pre-order cuties came in about a month ago, but we still have some instock! (All preorders were shipped as soon as they arrived). Most of the brighter/unusual colors (ex: green, brown, ect.) have been sold, but we have a few left. Hope everyone can adopt an adorable new friend (^ ^)💕#officialkawaiiday In our opinion, the wooly release was the most cute this time! The yellow one actually has a different facial expression! Hehe
🎉Mid-Autumn Festival🎉 Happy Mid-Autumn Festival everyone! We are enjoying gudetama moon cakes on this lovely day! Our boyfriend baked them in the oven a little bit to keep the outside crispy and the inside warm & creamy. It was delicious! Lately, we haven't been as active on our social accounts due to school, orders, and our 2 other part time jobs, but we're going to try to change that. We are back! (^O^)／ #officialkawaiiday For those who do not celebrate this holiday, we hope you have a wonderful day! ❤️

🎀Sponsor Review🎀 Our lovely sponsor @ichigochii shared this magical photo with us on her account @urhime! Her Koro Koron Hamster seems quite curious about the kitty phone! For some reason, seeing all the things match in the color pink is really cute to us 💕 #officialkawaiiday Be sure to check her accounts to find her discount code and get 10% off your entire order!
🍴Lunch Time🍴 This was taken on one of our days off from work and omg we wish we could go back here. We were eating at a furniture store called IKEA! They actually have a food area on the top floor. Their Swedish meatballs are so delicious....the price is really cheap too (T ^ T) #officialkawaiiday Every time we look at these kinds of photos...we regret not eating more when we were there..but we don't want our stomachs to explode...
Little sneak peak of some adorable Rilakkuma file folders I got with my shopdaystyle order awhile back which I made a video on and haven’t gotten around to editing yet..I’m slacking. You can use the code “littleshyfawn” if you would like 10% off your total order at checkout though!💕
hehe so glad that you like them ^^ and don’t worry about rushing the video or anything. Just take your time :D we always look forward to watching them!
Open Letter to the Community
This will be long, I apologise. I’ve been meaning to make this post for awhile now, and I think now is as good a time as any. Many people don’t really know me, but I’ve been around for awhile in the community (my “how to buy from rakuten” post is going around again, I saw). I’ve seen it change and grow, and I love that it’s growing. There are more people to connect with, more people to share joys of alpacasso with, art friends, forums, etc. It’s amazing!
But with a bigger community comes a larger amount of people, obviously, and problems can easily arise. This is not a call out post, first and foremost. This is honestly just a gentle reminder.
As the buying and collecting community grows, so does the selling community. I cannot stress enough that sellers are people too, and most of the time they sell only as a hobby– just like the people that collect as a hobby. Sellers are not robots. They are humans. They are people. Often times, they are only one person and they have other responsibilities in their lives. If you think they possibly lost your email or forgot, send another one and gently remind them. Apologise, repeat yourself, say thank you, and wait again.
Please, be nice to your sellers. Be kind, say please and thank you, use your manners, and don’t expect them to respond to you 24/7 and around the clock. Again, they have lives that do not entirely center around replying to angry emails.
Contrary to popular belief, the customer is not always right– but no matter how mean you are to a seller, they are obligated to be nice to you, and trust me when I say that it’s very hard to be kind to angry or rude people. I worked in the government for years, I have experience with irate people (I was screamed at, demeaned, and accused of murdering babies before– I have a badge of honour!).
But sellers (especially well-known ones) are so often held to a very high standard that the moment they’re “rude,” their reputation could crumble. They shouldn’t have to lie back and take it, but they do, and that’s hardly fair. If you’re nice to your cashiers, why not be nice to your sellers? And if you aren’t nice to your cashiers, you should be. It makes everyone’s days go better. More flies with honey than vinegar, as the saying goes.
If you make a good impression on someone, they will remember you in a better light obviously than if you are incredibly mean to them. They’ll remember that, I assure you, and it could end up that they will not sell to you anymore. Am I saying be incredibly fakely nice? No, of course not— but basic manners are not a lost endeavor! Please, be kind and courteous, and they will return the favour.
Really. It’s not that hard to be nice to the community in general. If someone is wrong, why correct them nastily? Why condemn someone for accidentally buying a bootleg/bootie, or buying one just because they liked it? It doesn’t take much to be kind to everyone, especially people who are just starting out collecting.
Sometimes, sellers and collectors overlap. Don’t shame anyone for what prices they set or chose to sell as. Collecting, whether we all want to admit it or not, is a competitive hobby. The more people in a community there are, the more competitive it can end up. Alpacas that used to go for 50$ can turn into 150$ or more, because of supply and demand. I talked about this on a different post, but it bears repeating.
Honestly, nobody is happy that prices are raising. Supply and demand is a monster, but it happens in a large community with a competitive hobby at the heart of it. Take the blue macaron– a very sought after alpaca that hardly shows up in any size.
When I begun the community, there was an unwritten “rule” that 1$ = 1cm, generally. As of now, that is not so much the case. That is what happens though– a community grows not only in people, but it grows and evolves in methods and processes.
Now, with that in mind, a blue macaron should go for 45-55$ by the end of it all. Yet, they can easily go upwards of 100$ to even 250$ or so– especially when bidding comes into the picture. However, if that person then sells the alpaca they bought, they might want their money back give or take. This particular hypothetical alpaca still has all its tags and is not dirty, so it’s “mint” by community standards. It retains its value, so it sells for the same amount sans… let’s say, 50$. They haggled.
The next person that buys it intends to keep the alpaca, so they cut the tags off and toss them. The value depreciates slightly. Later on, this person decides to sell for whatever reason. Without the tag, a vehement collector wants a better discount. More haggling, and the alpaca drops to 150$.
This could go on and on. Yet, at the same time, perhaps there’s another blue macaron that sells for 80$, with tags. Endless opportunities.
Patience is an absolute virtue when collecting, and it makes the hunt worth it usually. I won’t tell you how to collect or how to price. That is not my business nor my place. I will end this before it gets too long, although I’m sure I forgot some things I intended to say.
But, I can only plead for everyone to get along and for everyone to take a moment and please remember that there’s people behind the screens. The single person replying to your email took time out of their schedule to answer your question nicely. Mind your manners and thank them. Appreciate their hard work that they do for you and because they love alpacasso as much as you do.
That’s what makes us a community: our love for these adorable UFO plush toys. Thank you for reading.
I cannot give too much comments but all I want to say is thank you for writing this long post.
Thank you for making this post. Yes! Most of the time sellers are or used to be collectors too so of course we understand the feelings of buyers. We all do our best to make everyone happy, but sometimes conflicts come up if both parties misunderstand each other. Especially since it is hard to convey feelings merely through typed words. There is no harm to re-send emails! Let’s just all appreciate, support, and share our love of alpacasso!! ^^ We collect too so of course we would want you to get your dream alpacasso! But we cannot perform magic and fix all problems or please everyone’s request.. we are sorry if we ever disappointed anyone. We will just keep doing our best! It is a little long, but we think new alpacasso collectors as well as old collectors should read this wonderful post!
☀️Summer Sadness☀️ Can you believe it? School is almost here! Our team will be going back to university soon...with all these Sherbert Alpacasso surrounding us, it makes us really feel like summer hasn't ended yet.... （ ｉ _ ｉ ）🍦#officialkawaiiday Amuse finally released some of the preorder items we had listed! They'll be here very soon ❤️❤️❤️
🌟Adventure Time!🌟 We've sent hundreds of alpacasso all over the world, but we never really see where they land. @officialcw was kind enough to share this adorable photo with us! Isn't it cute? This alpacasso is loving the New York City life! Please take us with you!! New York has such beautiful skyscrapers ( ´ ▽ ` )ﾉ❤️ #officialkawaiiday Only a few days left to enter the collab giveaway between @yourpeachysenpai and officialkawaiiday! Check out her account or scroll down to see the giveaway rules!
🌼 Liz Lisa Summer 🌼 Anyone else love the Japanese Brand, Liz Lisa, clothing line? We love the princess + sweet look of the clothes! Although the price is alittle high, it is definitely worth saving up for. Hahaha looks like a little trouble maker wanted to try on our clothes ( *｀ω´) #officialkawaiiday If anyone is also interested in this brand, there's always amazing sales at the end of the Summer and during New Years (We go crazy when it's time to buy fukubukuro/Japanese lucky packs) so don't be discouraged by the price c: 💕
💌 Amuse Tag Collection💌 So we took a picture of our entire alpacasso collection the other day and decided to snap a photo of all the tags from our personal Amuse plush collection (alpacasso, happy tail, woolys, ect.). We usually remove the tags and keep them safe in a box. Never realized we had so many (^◇^;)… #officialkawaiiday
Question of the day: We gathered the smaller prizes for our giveaway, but we’re still stuck on the main prize…What amuse plush would you like for us to give away? ❤️
