tutorial- How to use Gmarket?

.i've seen many people who are intrested in buying products from gmarket but are unable to because of the language barrier so this post is basically going to be a turorial on how to sign up in gmarket and get around in the website ^-^.

 First you'll need to go to the website: which is http://english.gmarket.co.kr/

dont forget to type english in front of the gmarket otherwise you'll end up going to the korean website which is going to confuse you even more.

After that click on the Register button to sign up!

Fill in all the details and click on sign up.

After that you need to go check your email which will give you links to confirm your account.(i'm not sure if they send you an confirmation email since i cant remember if i got one when i signed up ^=^)

After 1 days or so chek you email again and they will ask for you to show your identy card or just anything which proves your identy, in my case i took sent a picture of my dad's driving license which had his name,address,date of birth etc.

After you've done all this you are ready to shop!!

Although the website is supposed to be in english, quite alot of thing are still in korean which is diffucult to understand so just follow these steps...and after a couple of time you have visited the site you'll be able to get around without any problems.

  First choosing the right category: its very easy you just need to click on the different categories as shown on the picture below and there will be another sub- categories.

For example i want to look at womens item so i'll need to click on apparal and accessories > Womens apparel >

The you'll be navigated to another page which will have another list of categories for women's apparel.

I want to look at sweaters so i'll clik on Sweaters.

then lists of items will come up from different sellers based on the populality of the items. In the aboves picture you can see whether the items have international shipping option available or not.On the right hand side it gives you more information on the discounts, price and the extra offers that the individual seller offer.

There is an option of choosing whether you want only the products that have international shipping avaible to show up, like shown in the image below.

once you have found the item that you are interested click on the image.you'll notice that there wont be just one item like in normal westren clothings websites, there will be hundereds to choose from. youll have to scroll down the page and the items will just keep appearing. there'll be an information box which gives you information on the estimated weight of the product and some other informations after you scroll you page once or twice.

keep scrolling untill the images of the items appear. after you have found the items that you are interested in clik on the image of the item like shown on the picture below.

then a new tab or page will open which will give you more information about the item: for example the size available, measurments,colours availabe, model size, etc.

then if you decided to add it to your shoppinf cart then simply click on the box like shown in the picture below or go to the top of the page. here i'll show you how to do it by just clicking on the box that comes up next to the item images as it's easier this way. close the new tab that opened with more information on the items or just go to the page that you were on before then follow what i've done in the picture below.

 find the item name from the list.

there will be like thounds of different items so you might find it diffucult at first but you'll get used to it. after you find the item clik complete. do the same for other items that you want to add to your basket.

To view your shopping cart and go to checkout scroll your page up and you'll find the button which says shopping cart. just click on it.

if you have any items that you dont want to purchase in you shpping cart then just tick the box next to the image of the item in your shopping cart page and clicl on delete from cart.
For international shipping you'll have to select the EMS opiton(this is the only option available, but is super fast) and choose your country and the shipping cost will be added to your final cost.
 After that scroll the page and to go to checkout.

after you've clicked on place an order, you'll just have to fill in all the details and the order will be complete. And you'll just have to wait for your products to arrive at your dodr ^-^.

Hope that helped. if there is any other question feel free to ask me, i'll try to help as much as possible if its something that i can help you with *^-^*.

GMARKET HAUL REVIEW ^-^

So i ordered 5 items on i 3rd of august but i only got it on 22nd august. my items arrived at heathrow airport 5 days after the order date and i'd probably recieve it in the next 3 days but i didnt as it was stuck in the custom, URGHhHH. i was really scared that i'd have to pay extra custom tax for it but pheww i didnt have to ^-^ . Thee total cost of the order was £64 including the shipping costs.

 I bought 5 items and the image above on the left is the box
that had all the stuffs that i ordered. And on the right is the
image of how my items were packed.Overall i was really happy with the packings as it was done very
neatly. I went crazy when i first got it tehe. it came when no once was at my house so the delivery people gave it to my next door neighbour and later on that day when i was in my front garden watering the flowers, the lady next door gave it to me.anyway here goes my review.

1.pink summer blazer: SELLER

This picture shows the item that i recieved. This blazer was the
one that i was looking forward to the most but i was
disappointed  with it. The material used for the item was exactly

 like what i was expecting but the size was done wrong. The
sleeve and the overall length of the blazer was longer than what
was stated on the size chart and the white collar was done very
poorly. Overall i'd give it 2.5* out of 5*.

 2. brown mocha ribbon flat shoes: SELLER

I love love loveeee this shoes, they are AMAZING!! The quality of
the material and the attention to details is great. i paid around £15 pounds for it and i'd be ready to pay up to £25 for it if i were buy another pair(and i am going to for sure). I'll give it 10* out of 5*.tehe >-<

3. emerald cardigan:SELLER

This item probably was the one that i was least excited about as
it was just a normal cardigan but when i got the actual product i
was really happy with it. I only paid around £7 for it and the

 quality of the material is awesome, it is very soft and fits really
well and the colour is lovely.I'd give it 6* out of 5* and i definitely recommend this
product.

4. brown bag:SELLER

The design of this bag isnt extraordinary but still its fine since
what i was looking for wasnt the design. i just wanted a bag that
could be worn everyday for school whilst all my school works/folder fitted in comfortably. I only paid around £7 for it and still the quality of the bag is better than i expected. i'd give it
5* out of 5* considering the low price that i paid for it. I'd give it 4* if i hade paid about £15-20.

5. gold cocao pack:SELLER

Since last few moths i've been having a serious break outs so i
bought this item after i read a lot of good reviews for it. I've
used it for 3 days now and it seems to be working.i'll update you guys on how on effective it is abter about 1 month ok ^_-.This product has a very tempting chocolate fragrance and i got it for
 around £8.The image on the left if the product and the one
on the right is the free gifts that i got(3 potato essence
mask and 2 soap-one coconut and one palm oil ).

click on "SELLER" next to the item name to go to that item's page in gmarket.
