I can't stay off Ebay to save my life. Been doing about 2-4 hours a night.

I have such a tight budget, though, that I am pretty limited to what I can actually buy. Two outfits a month is about it. Already bought two this month, so I am done at least until my next paycheck in about 2 weeks.

For now I am spending my time just getting ideas and putting stuff on "watch lists"

I work in a vintage shop too...and with the weight loss I can wear so much more now! Argh...just got a black and pink deadstock dress with the original belt and rhinestones around the neck in the mail today. It is even better than I thought it would be...that is luring me back onto ebay!

I love ebay and I hate ebay!

Love- all the great goodies I can find!

Hate- that it makes my wallet empty!

I just went shopping a couple of days ago and bought me some cool Sourpuss and Lucky 13 stuff. I had to leave quick or else I would have bought the whole store!

ugh i'm addicted to eBay! I'm going around my house, finding stuff to sell! At least this way, it sorta balances it out lol at least that's how i justify it anyway ;)

I need to keep praying...I just spent over $100 on a bathing suit

Ebay is bittersweet. It has such a beautiful selection of vintage, but nothing I find is my size. I swear......almost everything I find that I like is either an xxs or xxl. I have found a few pieces that are my size, but then when the time came for the auction to end, it gets bid up to an ungodly amount that is way out of my budget.

I still look out of boredom, but at this point I am not going to be making any more Ebay purchases for Viva. I have a girlfriend who is gonna let me borrow a crap ton of great pieces. She sells vintage and sews, so I am a lucky gal! My wallet and my sanity will both stay in tact now!

I do plan on buying one piece from Vivien of Holloway, though. The same dress I have wanted for the last 2 years. I gotta have it this year or else!

Oh lordy, help...just bought a gingham taffeta dress at the store I work at...sigh...I think I have a problem. Is there a Vintage anonymous group?
