I'm painfully aware that doesn't make much sense. But, I desperately need help here! My dad's decided to allow me to purchase lolita online, since I don't have a machine yet and don't have a clue on how to sew clothing. The only problem is, he's kinda...Oldies I suppose? He says if we purchase anything on the internet it has to be over the phone, because someone will steal our credit card number or something like that. I tried In the Starlight, they don't sell over phone. ;-;

Please, does anyone know any lolita shops that sell over the phone?
If not, anyone know of any other possible solutions? =[
If this is in the wrong forum, sorry. sweatdrop

Most websites have some sort of security guarantees or something.
Show him something on a site that has the rules and such for credit cards?
I honestly don't think any brand sells over the phone. O___O

And you could always look around in stores for loli-ABLE items and have a lolita inspired wardrobe until you're old enough to order things online for yourself.
Unfortunately that's the situation with a lot of lolitas D:

Honestly, few stores do that, very few. You could talk to some of the ladies on this forum who run shop services, to see if they could do it, but otherwise...

Use a site that has PAYPAL!!! Bodyline has it, I'm not sure what others use it, I'm sure a few, so ladies help me out here.

PAYPAL has all your information, the store sees none of it. No one can steal your information from PAYPAL. eBay uses it, trust me, it's the most used and the safest way along with eBay's escrow service, to buy things online.

Seriously, paypal paypal paypal.

This.
Pay Pal is very secure. Gaia uses it as well.
Also, if your dad is afraid of something like that, you should not have a wireless network in your household, because it's easier for someone to hack into it and get information that's being sent from one computer to the other. My friend's mom pays most of her bills online and his dad does sensitive government work. They are fine with doing things online; they just don't use a wireless network.
