:( those more shoes are getting scuffed. Then again I'm OCD about my shoes both keeping and selling.


I had the same reaction, and with the eBay photos with one shoe propped up on top of another.
*shudder* Stop stepping on my shoes!

Heck, laying a shoe on its side to take a photo of the sole makes me cringe a little inside, even if I do have it resting on foamboard.

Yes, I have issues.

So, I woke up with the itch again. It was certainly scratched. Some quick and dirties.

SA was having a 50% off everything day, so I tried a new one, somewhere far away from where I usually go, in hopes that the Halloween costume lookers were not there. I was wrong, it was an effing madhouse. But, I prevailed. The line was insane :

The Miu Miu is the Charm Two-Way bag. Sells for ~1200 new, $600-850 on eBay. Might want to double check it before you sell - it used to be a frequently faked style.

But... Wow. Did you leave any belts in the store? That is an incredible haul.

That Marker down vest is nothing special and is in a pretty grotesque yellow. That David Chu SC, however, is bananas. And the belts...that's just a gift from the thrift lord. ****.
