eBay spree is over...scores here...
Permalink Closed

I lost this auction a few days ago and contacted the winner "just in case" it didn't fit her and said to contact me if not. I did not hold out much hope as she said she collected YSL and knew it would fit her. Anyway. she e-mailed me yesterday to say it didn't and I just bought it from her. Here are pictures of it (it is vintage YSL):





Original auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=63868&item=5361046324&rd=1 My special auction: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=5364844556&ssPageName=STRK:MEWN:IT


I also won this shrug/halter set yesterday, it's cashmere the brand is Lui Jo:

And last but not least I FINALLY won this Sass and Bide dress after over a year of bidding on various ones that popped up on eBay:

If anyone is interested here is a link to the black/yellow version of the same dress right now on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=55593&item=5363525570&rd=1&ssPageName=WDVW


I am now on an eBay hiatus for a couple of months.

Great buys!!  The Sass & Bide dress is really fun.


I like the one up for auction right now, but does anyone know what the US equivelant of an AU 12 is??

Yes, it's very satisfying after watching and waiting for so long! I'm very pleased I got the S&B dress - I am now waiting for a shirt from their Loveguard Gracie collection that I last saw on eBay over a year ago. I think it is lost forever. Heh.


Also, as for foreign currencies on eBay, don't they usually put the US$ equivalent right under the other currency?


Any cool ideas on what to wear with the YSL blouse please post!

I think shops2much means the us SIZE equivalent of a 12


Sorry, shops2much, I'm clueless.


Great finds, Mia, you have me burning up ebay at the moment. . .

Oops, duh. I think a size 12 AUS is around a size 8 US. Also, this dress is basically free-size because it gathers and can be cinched or let out to whatever size is necessary.

It's really quite pathetic with me. I mean, I could use a digital camera. I sometimes borrow my parent's crappy one but I actually love taking photos and would get a lot of use out of a good one. Seriously, if I ever have kids it'll be a wonder if they don't starve because I've got some pink cowboy boots that need buyin'. Hee.


Halleybird - I want Mizzle to post her silver sequin dress from last weekend. It was AWESOME.
