Ebay, Baby, Yeah!

I'll admit I have always been extremely skeptical about eBay. It just seems a little sketchy. Prior to a few weeks ago the only thing I had ever bought on eBay was an extremely disappointing print of the movie poster for To Catch a Thief. I say disappointing because I envisioned it much, much bigger than what arrived. Wah Wah...

The To Catch a Thief print

Then, something magical happened. I started a new cross stitch project and needed a good machine on which to do a serge stitch. My sister's kiddie sewing machine would obviously not do. I heard tell of an out of production Singer Mini Serger. I found one on eBay for a total steal.


It's awesome, by the way, especially if you ever need to hem something quickly. But this purchase got me thinking....what else is on eBay. Well, let me just tell you.

This guy, tags still on, for $40 less than retail.

This, which I'm actually pretty sure is a fake Tory Burch, but I just really don't care because the color is awesome and it has a detachable strap and it was cheapy cheap, y'all.

This, which I'm fairly certain is not fake, just last year's color which I still dig so whatever. It was $19.99. No, I will not shut up!

This little pretty. Y'all this is from Chico's, but my momma didn't raise no snob so I purchased it for the incredibly reasonable price of $27. It still had the tags on it and retailed for more than twice that.

So, basically, eBay is my new addiction. Someone help me.
