LF: YaokisubAvatars
-
@Frost-Iceberg did you end up buying it? I ask now because I have been looking desperately for an answer to why the avatars are all gone from VRChat since recently
-
@Eris-Masumi I'll guess it's because they are nsfw?
@TheBoldStool don't ask me, I personally never even used the nsfw functions of the avatar I was using. But then again if that's the case half the currently existing avatars would just vanish, a lot of them have toggable nsfw features, and furthermore Yaoki's were not even revealing

@Eris-Masumi If the avatar is public it kinda doesn't matter as long as someone uses it, which to note, they were public. Also, I recall one that literally had animated nipple dildos, would say that's enough nsfw to get them removed.

you'd be better off just finding the avatar and costumes and whatnot on here. all they are selling is custom edits, and it's not like they are too fancy.
@eiron custom edit? Isn't the link to Taobao the original?
-
They're edits of imeris, selestia, kikyo, shinra. it even say so on the store page. it's probably why they are relatively cheap too at aproxx. $15-$20
@eiron I don't know that stuff honestly. But I've been using the Selestia edit then I think, for quite some time too. So I wouldn't have a problem with buying it since I can afford it. I wouldn't know how they'd upload the avatar on my account though
-
if you don't know how to upload you're own avatar, you're gonna have more trouble buying from a chinese website.
it's not just a language issue. sites like these usually want you to register a chinese phone number and you have to deal with navigating ad-mazes -
@eiron pretty sure I can check how to upload an avatar. I guess if I did buy it there I'd receive something like a file though in that case?
@Eris-Masumi This user has 2 tiers, the "I upload it for you" and the "I give you the entire package"

@TheBoldStool Taking into consideration I have a friend who could help me with the language barrier and all I really care about is one specific avatar, should I go for the former?

@Eris-Masumi Imo I wouldn't go for the first one in any case (Likely not automatic, you need to give your account details to upload, if whatever happens and the avi breaks you can't fix it) I would much rather opt for the higher tier where they just give the entire package.
I also mentioned it wrong, there seems to be 3 tiers. Here's what I understand they are from the google translation (It's on the pic I sent above):
Tier1: They upload for you (125 yuan)
Tier2: They give the edited package but without including the Selestia base (250 yuan)
Tier3: Full thing (280 yuan) -
Keep us updated, I'd really like to purchase one of these avis - but I am very suspicious of the website!
@gruhhh a friend who lives in Taiwan says Taobao is very popular in the area. I guess your suspicions arise from the language barrier

use paypal or some other none traceable way of paying if possible, wouldn't want your actual card info stolen.
@eiron Alipay. It's the Chinese equivalent of PayPal

Taobao is pretty legit as it gets for China consumers. Kinda like Amazon just in China. Tho they have expended outside China, mostly south east Asia, and I have made a number of purchase there. Pretty good for buying stuff at cheap or just weird custom products you won’t find anywhere. You can really only purchase using debit/credit card that Taobao supports. PayPal is mostly impossible, you cant even transfer money to someone in China using paypal due to laws and stuff. Alipay probably won’t work unless you have a working China bank card, or a card that supports it. I haven’t got mine to work with it anyway, it’s pretty jank most of the time.

If you're accessing Taobao from outside China you get the option to use Visa/Mastercard/Amex. The shipping options still confound me so I use a shopping proxy.
