My Answers:

* What did you order? 1 silver + dark grey wig, 1 bright red wig, 1 maroon wig with grey streak (these were all similar style, medium length with long pieces underneath), 1 short grey wig, all size 8-9
* When did you order? October 2011
*How easy was it to order? Well, it was hard to find wigs I wanted that were not sold out. It took a month of browsing the site every couple days for things I wanted to be re-stocked. Also take note that things seem to sell out very quickly. The rest of the ordering process was easy. * How easy was it to pay? Very.
* How was the communication? Good.
* How long did it take to ship/arrive? It took the wigs about 3 weeks to ship (even though they were supposedly in stock), and they arrived about a week later through EMS
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? The wigs themselves are much less expensive than other companies, so yes, definitely. Same quality as other companies that use heat-resistant fiber at a lower cost.
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? Sort of. The colors were very true to the images. The wigs will have no styling to them when they arrive though! Because they are heat-resistant you are expected to style them yourself. Remember that when you look at company photos which shows the wigs after they've been styled.
* Were you satisfied with the product? Yes, very!
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? N/A
* Would you order from this company again? Yes, if I was in need of more wild colored cosplay styled wigs for my dolls.
* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? Yes, from someone in my own country, if it would save me on shipping costs, or if I found a wig that I could never manage to get from the company (always sold out).

I hope that was helpful to anyone considering buying from Usagi Hime! I highly recommend these wigs if you are willing to wait.

*What did you order? Two different wigs at two different times. One was an SD wig, the other an MSD wig.
* When did you order? One wig two years ago (late 2010), another wig Fall 2011 (around August).
*How easy was it to order? Super easy, just stuck 'em in my cart.
* How easy was it to pay? Paid with Paypal, easy there too.
* How was the communication? I didn't need to contact Usagihime for any reason, but she emailed me letting me know that my order was placed, and that they shipped.
* How long did it take to ship/arrive? Shipping and arrival was quick. Like, no more than three weeks for both orders. I don't remember the exact time frames, sorry, but I was quite satisfied.
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Definitely. They are very nice wigs, I'd say.

* Were you satisfied with the product? Very much so.
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? N/A

*What did you order? 4 SD-sized wigs
* When did you order? Early 2010.

* How easy was it to pay? Used Paypal.
* How was the communication? Very good, very clear and friendly.
* How long did it take to ship/arrive? Shipping seemed pretty quick to me.
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Quality is good. Price is good. The wigs arrived nicely in clear boxes. And they also came with a free wig brush.
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? Yes, very much.
* Were you satisfied with the product? Yes! I was very Happy.
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? N/A

* What did you order? Several wigs - all in the 9-10 size and the colored hair extensions
* When did you order? May 2011
*How easy was it to order? Very easy, just by adding the items to the cart and checking out by Paypal
* How easy was it to pay? Yes - it was by paypal, very straight forward
* How was the communication? Horrible. The worst ordeal Ive ever went through. I felt like it was a game when I wanted to get a reply, and I wasnt the type that emails sellers alot. I remember placing an order and getting no confirmation - waited a 4 days to get one and then emailing Usagihime to make sure that my order is confirmed. I got a reply a week later that she would be shipping. I then email her 10 days later and nothing. I PM her here, nothing. I get a suggestion to contact her through FB - I got some redundant reply that doesnt answer any of my questions and I reply back. Many users are posting on her Facebook and she ignores them, I got two PM on FB by other customers saying the same thing. No answer for 2 months though she continues updating her facebook about a concert and taking pictures of her dolls. I decide to open a dispute on paypal, which she ignores and I got my money back through Paypal.
* How long did it take to ship/arrive? I ordered May 7th and recieved the items on July 13. The wigs were advertised as in stock.
* Was the quality appropriate for the price, in your opinion? Yes, amazing quality.
* Did the item look like the sales pictures? Some styling was definitely needed to get the same look, its expected. They are beautiful, nonetheless - also packaging looks fabulous, definitely not your common wig maker.
* Were you satisfied with the product? No. The wigs were amazing, though some wigs she sent me were not the 9-10 size Ive ordered. 1 was 6-7" or perhaps 7-8", and the other two were 8-9".
* If you weren't satisfied, how did the company solve your problem? After 2+ months of waiting, I was just plain angry. I didnt want to deal with the company anymore so I just ignored and gave them away as gifts. I gave back the money in full when I received the package.
* Would you order from this company again? Nope, never would recommend them to anyone, maybe they have improved now, but after going through that ordeal, I dont want to take my chances again.
* Would you buy this company's products second-hand? Second hand, definitely, but never directly through them.
