First Gmarket Purchase!

I bought this wallet from Gmarket since my panda wallet got stolen =[ I actually bought it by accident, added it to my basket, then clicked pay via paypal, hoping to check the total price but then it ended up paying before I found out! (so be careful!)

Inside: loads of card slots and a photo card slot! Notes go in the two slots in the middle.

I always have the problem of too many cards. So it’s really great for me, I even have room to spare at the moment!

only not-so-practical thing about this wallet is that the coin part is quite narrow so it’s hard to see what coins you have.( although you can actually fit a lot of coins in there!)
It costed me approx £27 incl. shipping to UK and it originally was supposed to arrive in 5 days but it not got delayed by UK customs. ( something which is really rare especially if you’re only buying one thing!!)
I Hope that helps! now just some random things..

  4. Aw I really like the purse, the quality looks just as good as the original picture(^ ^) I was thinking about ordering from Gmarket but now that you mentioned customs I'm slightly worried cause I had to pay £35 custom tax before T-T

    If you like Instagram you should definitely try Pudding.to it's almost the same but there are extra features and you can add your current mood etc^^. But most importantly there are a lot of cute Koreans posting pics LOLOLOL.

  6. I hate it when that happens. I think I'm getting a great deal when really shipping costs more than the actual product :[

  11. Hi, may i ask if you had to pay custom tax?

    I'm in UK too, and would like to get some stuff from Gmarket, but i've heard stories on how you'll almost always get a custom tax on Gmarket merchandises so i'm rather concerned. Thanks! Nice Blog btw! (^^ )

    1. Hi. Yes I had to pay customs tax for this one purchase but I have bought twice so far and one time I didn't pay, another time I did. It's really quite down to luck. My friend (also from UK) has purchased from Gmarket about 10 times and never had to pay any customs tax. So I would say most of the time you don't need to pay but sometimes you do. Hope that helps!
