Selling bra sets - what do you make of this message?

[Curiousrugbymum]

I am having a big clear out. I am only an occasional ebayer, usually selling kids clothes and lots of DH shirts & suits (he lost lots of weight :))

So I konded my drawers and found Lots of lovely bras and matching knickers that are in a bra size I will never get back in (34d ) so listed them too.

Now.....I got this message today, and it was a bit wierd somehow, am I missing something experienced ebay folk? It was the use of a name and the ...

Hello dear curious.

Re the bra sets: We're thinking of bidding on some of these. The ones Lara likes are the brown and the floral, also the 2 x black, the red, the white.
Realistically we hope we might get one or two.

Beautiful items. Only 99p? Have they had much wear? Any damage?
We're 'green' so we don't mind second hand stuff, though we do want vgc. Trust we wouldn't be disappointed on quality....

And you combine postage? That's good.

Thank you.

I would say 'Lara' doesn't exist, and it is in fact Larry who wants the underwear for his own enjoyment!

[Meht]

Dont reply. At all.

[Seeyounearertime]

not sure what you mean op?

it reads as though English may be their second language and they're simply asking about wear and damage etc.

[OhShutUpThomas]

Tell him youve never washed them and the reserve is £700. You'll make a mint.

Seriously though - who buys and sells second hand knickers??

[standingonlego]

The bras are all lovely and hardly worn!

The mixed replies echo my puzzlement!!!!

[Seeyounearertime]

Seriously though - who buys and sells second hand knickers??

would you like to know?
there is a massive market for them with good money to be made for the most fragrant...

[standingonlego]

meht do you think it is dodgy then?

[standingonlego]

Argh! I am too naive for this...should stick to mini boden

[OhShutUpThomas]

Oh I know that seeyou

I meant, who legitimately does it??

[AndNowItsSeven]

You can't sell second hand knickers on eBay it breaks the T and Cs.

[standingonlego]

Legimately...It would appear to be me

[ChristmasCabbage]

Seeyounearertime Seriously? I'm having a big sort out and I've got loads of old bras and pants but it seems such a shame to chuck them. Where would one go about selling this kind of stuff? Thanks.

[standingonlego]

I am selling them as bra sets...lots of people seem to do it did try to check. Do not want to break rules!

I didn't think eBay allowed sale of used underwear, for obvious reasons.
I have a surplus of good condition bras too , I'm trying to remember where i saw a charity advertise how these were needed for women and girls Africa.

[standingonlego]

I am only selling these as they are in lovely embroider ones on perfect condition and hardly worn, all the normal black / white / nude stuff went straight in the bin with the plain good bras sent to the smalls for all charity.

[CatThiefKeith]

Slightly off topic, but our local freecycle group often has an advert from a bloke looking for second hand tights 'for an art project'.

[standingonlego]

Cross post jackie Google or facebook Smalls for All for their address, I have sent my nursing bras to them too.

[standingonlego]

Will just let the auction run and ignore messages! Thank you folks.

[Jackie0]

That's it standing !
Many thanks

The problem here for you is that it's used bra sets.

TBH, I'd just sell the bras.

[Meht]

Then theres the 'well worn' shoes that people sell on ebay, with pics of their feet, they sell like hot cakes

[Lweji]

I hope you are not modelling the sets, btw.

[Seeyounearertime]

Christmas
Just for you.

I'm wearing two pairs a day now and one at night to maximise my weekly sales.

I once tried to sell a pair of "trashed shoes" on eBay. They can sell to certain gentlemen like hot cakes and I had the idea that it could be a nice little earner, picking them up from charity shops and so on.

Only problem was that I think I was a little too enthusiastic and descriptive about how "grubby' they were.

I was promptly suspended!!!
