eBay My World: becky740( 2296)

I am crazy for shoes and bags. I receive way too many fashion and design magazines. I have a Master's Degree in Landscape Architecture from the University of Virginia.

Fancy Schmancy shoes and bags like Chanel, Bottega Veneta, Gucci, Prada, Miu Miu, Brian Atwood, Roger Vivier, Christian Louboutin, Christian Dior, Pucci, et. al. I also sell Marimekko fabric and the occasional item of new or used clothing.

I buy shoes, McCoy pottery, books, vintage Laura Ashley, vintage handbags (especially patent leather in odd colors) and folk art on eBay.

English

Shopping, writing, collaging, designing, working around my house, watching the tube

The Straight Man by Richard Russo, anything by Carl Hiaasan (sp?), anything by John Irving, Bridget Jones' Diary, anything by David Foster Wallace or David Sedaris.

Grosse Point Blank, Fight Club, Swingers, Bridget Jones' Diary (only the first one), oh I'm drawing a complete blank

The Wire, The Sopranos, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Arrested Development, Veronica Mars, Boston Legal, Nip/Tuck (though they jump the shark in every episode), Rescue Me, and OK, I admit it, I watch Laguna Beach. It makes me feel like a Rocket Scientist in comparison to those idiots.

I started on eBay when I cleaned out a closet of some old Laura Ashley stuff from college and some old AWL Dooney bags. I made an extra $300 that month and thought 'wow, there is something to this!' From there I fell down the rabbit hole of buying things to resell and now I do this full time. I am a member of eBay Voices, I have been a Silver Powerseller for several years and I have met several pals on eBay.

Paypal and Money Orders. I will accept your check but I have to hold it for 11 days, which really stinks for both of us. I do not accept Cashier's Checks after being defrauded by a fake one for over $600. Luckily the others on eBay who had been burned by this scammer contacted me before the fake check even arrived. Apparently the scammer is in California Prison for four years!

I try to get my items out next-day. I use USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation. I usually add insurance to anything over $99 and add it into my shipping charges. I send most international packages via USPS EMS, which takes 3-5 business days. I will use alternative international shipping methods at the buyer's request, if they assume responsibility for loss, theft or lateness. I only trust the EMS service with complete confidence and it's worth the high price.

If I have made a mistake in the auction, an automatic return is accepted including shipping both ways. If something doesn't fit or did not meet your expectations, let me know and I'm happy to work something out - generally I'll refund minus shipping and a $4 relisting fee.

The Clothing Shoes and Accessories Board, the Vintage Clothing Board, the Shoes Purses and Other Accessories Board, eBay blogs - so far I've really enjoyed willow-wear and that Louis Vuitton gal who's username is escaping me at the moment.
