Perfume from ebay?

theotherjess · Chanel

I don't see why not if you can get a great deal.

poptart · Coach

I say go for it, too.

monica · Kenneth Cole

i've done it before and have had no issues -- i just went w/ a seller who had amazing feedback.

just an FYI if you bring the star back to nordstroms, bloomie's, Famous Barr, Macy's, etc...it only costs $40 to refill. and i think the original price is $90?? those numbers could be wrong, but i am so bad about finding new perfume, even though i want to, that i always just keep on filling the Angel as my anytime perfume.

Another option is fragrencenet.com. Its a lot cheaper than department stores. They usually have coupons too.

Hey girl I just got this email from mypoints.com and its an advert for perfume.com.

They have that perfume for $55 if that's any cheaper and in your price range. I can forward you the email if you want.

i've bought perfume off of ebay before too - i really wanted the marc jacobs and it was like $90 or something as well.

i'm so annoyed though b/c once i got it i found another one i like better (escada magnitude) so now i haven't used hardly any of it :( a waste of $40

I would recommend buying Angel on Ebay. I bought a special edition spray as one of my first ebay purchases.

Karina · Chanel

I've gotten perfume from ebay a bunch of times.

Thanks ladies, I guess I was just a little skeptical of knock offs on ebay, but she uses a knock off of it now & it's not even in that pretty bottle! I just hated spending $100 on it when I am trying to cut back for christmas, but didn't want to get the little bottle & look cheap either.....

I appreciate the other site recs - I guess i'll look at all that & see how cheap I can get it. lsubatgirl, I got that email too today! funny how when you are looking for something it just pops up

And shopgirl82, yeah, we saw that it was refillable when she was here & we went on the hunt for it (they don't have saks or nordies where she is so never could just go get it) - they even said if she mailed them the bottle they could refill it & ship it back to her so that's VERY cool.

Thanks so much!

i just wanted to say that i've sold and bought perfume off ebay a bunch of times and never had any problems. as other mentioned you can buy it off discounter sites too. the mark-up on fragrance is nuts so why shouldn't we try and look for a deal?!
