MAM Order?

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Okay, since Baby is very busy and Meta is out of stock on everything I want, I went looking at other brand's websites for a tote bag and a parasol and I FINALLY FOUND WHAT I WANT.....from MAM!!

Umbrella/parasol: http://www.maxicimam.com/_mam/80K002.html.

I honestly had a lot of trouble deciding between that and the crown with ruffles because I want the cross, but I want ruffles. But I like crosses more, so I decided! ....Actually I really want an IW one, but they're like $100!! O_O Maybe in the future. I want those new IW boots too.....*0*....

ANYWAY.

Bag: http://www.maxicimam.com/_ma/9CB001.html.

The problem is though, how do I order from them? I would prefer not to use a shipping service. Is there anyone who knows how to order and would like to do a group order? I'm in the US and can pay with MO or Paypal. I

One last thing...does anyone know anything about MAM? As in, how do I pronounce its freaking name XD And what the MAXICIMAM (the full name, right?) means? It looks like roman numerals to me ^___^

Thank you so much, lovelies!!

I'm pretty certain that MAM doesn't ship to the US.

Of course. I have such bad luck XD

I love MAM and own a parasol from them ^_^
If you want to order, you have to go through a shopping service. I use Celga usually ^_^ celga.com/egl/index.php
It's a bit expensive, but it's worth it for MAM goodies!

[redtonic.livejournal.com]

oh you did, can i ask you how much it ended up being? For the parasol i mean ^_^;

[creamyjade.livejournal.com]

I did a big order of doom of 600$+ so I can't tell for the parasol only ^_^;;;

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

That is a REALLY big order O_O.

Thank you very much for your suggestion!

[redtonic.livejournal.com]

Maybe you'll get lucky and someone living in japan will be willing to buy those for you.
Anyway if you manage to get someone let me know becuase i also want that same parasol for a while now ^_^;

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Maybe....^^;

If I can do it, I'll post about it and then when I get the items I'll take piccies!

[zerick.livejournal.com]

those parasols are PURE love T___T I love their shape SO much ! MAM got such cute items ... but yeah ... no overseas shipments .... yet .... T______T

I think all the lolita stores should totally have a page in english like Meta, and ship oversea, I mean ... Meta sell SO MUCH from their online website, and it's a wonderful way to make the fashion more accesible to the rest of the world, I so wish they would all do that T___T !

[serena-skylark.livejournal.com]

Alot of them try to. The problem is they can't find someone that works there that is really fluient in english. There are a few of them that are in the middle of having an english page.

and payment is difficult. Paypal in countries other than uk and us can be hard to set up and many countries like britain can't do IMPOs. Bank transfers are very expencive if done worldwide

[nerorizim.livejournal.com]

lol me and my friends have always pronoucned it MAM as in like..ma'am sorta like when your talking to a teacher. and maxicimam like exactly that max-see-see-ma'am

now watch it that be totally wrong and it have some other retarded prounciation

[kyra-cat.livejournal.com]

i'd say maam rather than marm.....

[nerorizim.livejournal.com]

lol who said marm?

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

That makes sense. Thanks!

[kyra-cat.livejournal.com]

ma'am - marm

maybe a culture difference :D

[nerorizim.livejournal.com]

probably. i added the dash to emphasize the ma-am instead of just mam. lol i've never even heard anyone say marm before xD

[kyra-cat.livejournal.com]

yes ma'am, as in pre war time school ma'am? it's not a hard r but it's there :)

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

I like a lot of their stuff too. I like Baby and Meta a lot, but I think that brands like h.Naoto, MAM, and Moitie really fit my tastes better ^_^

I hope you can go too! Bring lots of money XD

[sky-tipped.livejournal.com]

MAXICIMAN is the overall brand company. MAM is the sweet lolita line, MA is the punky line and mamam is kinda like hybrid or wa/qi-lolita.

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Yes, I saw on their website that they have lines. MAM doesn't seem very sweet though XDD It is loli though~

Thank you!

[lolita-lin-lin.livejournal.com]

I'm interested if someone is doing a order. >< I'd volunteer to do it, but I'm slammed with school.

I want this... http://www.maxicimam.com/_mam/80K003.html

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Yes, I love the ruffles on it! If only they made the cross one with ruffles @T_T@

As of right now, an order doesn't look likely since a shopping service must be used.

[mparf.livejournal.com]

I have that in Black!
It's pure love!
Good for light to medium showers. It will probably stand up to really heavy showers if there isn't alot of wind.
But overall, i just bought it coz it's so cute...^________^

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

I want it just for a parasol XD That's good to know that it does work well as an umbrella though! Thank you!

Did you use a shopping service to get yours then?

[mparf.livejournal.com]

Sorry Lovey...
I got mine in the Kera Store in LaForet, Harajuku in the summer of 2004...
Good times...*wipes tear*
2000 Yen is really cheap; i remember mine cost $3500 Yen, but it wouldn't fit in my suitcase, so my HostFamily had to send it to me...T_______T

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Awww, well that's neat that you were able to BE THERE.

It is cheap, hence why I want it so bad. IW's umbrellas are like Y9000! @>_<@

[mparf.livejournal.com]

Yeah i know....Jeez, i think i'd be too paranoid taking a $100 Parasol outside and using it. It'll just sit in my room, in a glass Display Box, with the whole "Entrapment" scene around it...^_^"

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

LOL pretty much! XD

[blue-meddy.livejournal.com]

I have that MAM parasol too *lol* Looks like it's a regular item on their catalogue because I purchased it directly from their store in 2003. It's very pretty and Victorian in RL too =)

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

I guess it is pretty popular. It should be, it's awesome. LOL too awesome for anyone to want to sell to me I guess!! XD

[dykestar.livejournal.com]

Order through a shopping service. I did a MAM order through Celga for this (http://www.maxicimam.com/_mam/8C2001.html) and this (http://www.maxicimam.com/_mam/8C3001.html) and got it with no trouble. They even sent me a nice little catalog, a sticker, and a paper fan with their logo as a gift :) THANKS MAM! hahaha.

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Oh wow! Thanks so much for letting me know, because I'm really hesitant to use a shipping service. I guess that's my only choice though ^^;

[missnightshade.livejournal.com]

I want that parasol too, but I'm so bummed that it's sold out in black T_T

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

IT IS?!?!?! I didn't notice. Gah. I'll have to wait until it's not then @>_<@ lol.

[missnightshade.livejournal.com]

I hope they restock it soon... if they do at all D:

[letzte-ausfahrt.livejournal.com]

Well if you order from Celga, they'll keep trying until it's restocked.

[duskshadows.livejournal.com]

hmmm. from what i vaguely remember from doing roman numerals at school, and from looking at their logo... i think maxicimam may well stand for infinity. :P just a guess though. XD
