I love KYURII. REALLY.

But it's times like this that makes me feel that the online shop
is not being very consumer-oriented in their marketing tactics.
Many other online shops are charging much lesser than KYURII
for their clothes and offering free postage if shoppers added
the link of the shop on their personal blogs.

Look at what I just received in my mailbox.

"Dear girls,

How to get free delivery?
Simply refer your friends to KYURII and get a chance to enjoy free 
postages on your purchases!

You get to enjoy a month of free delivery if your referred friends 
make their first purchase of 3 items with KYURII each.
The more friends you refer, the more you will enjoy! As for your 
friends, she will get to enjoy free delivery on her first purchase as 
well!

Eg.

We thank you for your kind support! Have a good week!

I could swear that it's highly unlikely that anyone is gonna receive
this "premium service" they provide. The free postage may work
on a shopper who purchases 3 items herself, but how do you expect
her to find a friend who will buy 3 items as well when the shop is
selling stuff higher than market rate? To think they even attempted
to set an excited tone in the mail and had the word "Simply" in the
second sentence.

This email is almost like a spam to me. Irrelevant and ridiculous.
