I have a pair of shoes on ebay. They are red stilettos, ankle straps, zips; look a bit kinky.

I got a message for a buyer saying 'she loved them and they were exactly what she was looking for for her night out, and whether I would have some photos to see how they looked on etc etc xxx'

I offered to take some pictures, and she said 'that would be fab thanks xxx'

I am desperate to sell them, so didn't think much of it, put them on, took a few pictures and sent them.

Didn't hear back for a couple of days so I asked her is she got the photos. She said, 'yes, thanks I will have a look xxx'

And that was it.

Maybe I just have a dirty mind, but AIBU to think she was never going to buy my shoes?

When you've been looking on Ebay at say, [whisper] - your sexy red stilettos, they email you with stuff like "Do Sexy red stilettos still interest you?" Er - NO!Shock

welshmist · 06/02/2018 23:22

It`s the used knickers on ebay someone told me about that shocked me.

TitaniasCloset · 06/02/2018 23:43

Welshmist WHAT??! Shock

On eBay? Surely no! Hygiene people!

Wonder how much they go for? Get yourself to primarni girls and buy up those multi pack knickers, and post them off!

IamAporcupine · 06/02/2018 23:53

Yes, I have seen the used knickers before Confused

Yes, but I think they take them off again Wink [iyswim] Not allowed!

TitaniasCloset · 07/02/2018 00:09

Ok I found a site that sells them and they go for about £20. I wasn't prepared to look any further than that.

Now you know it's a man buying this stuff, they really do think very differently about sex to us don't they? Well some/a lot of them.

RideaCockHorseOfCourse · 07/02/2018 00:09

Just found this on Ebay. A picture of what looks like bare feet, then description: "Tan colour work tights. Have been worn so much they are bobbling inside thighs" Ew! Oh bugger, I'll get an email from Ebay asking if I'm still interested! Must be a way to get rid of that........

KakunaRattata · 07/02/2018 11:22

If I could get over the fact that someone is wanking over my skin cells then I might be tempted. Must clear my viewed items as DH and I use the same account and this is a conversation I cba having!

welshmist · 07/02/2018 12:30

£20 a pair for knickers, easier money than Avon I am thinking rofl....

RedPanda2 · 07/02/2018 13:00

Hmm you really need a vacuum packer for knickers, to keep in the, erm, stuff.
A friend told me

TitaniasCloset · 07/02/2018 13:46

Panda just how manky do they need to be? I'm sorry but I'm fascinated now, slightly queasy, but I want to know more. Like, why? Why?

RedPanda2 · 07/02/2018 13:51

I think, the mankier the better. Like, last day of period manky.
I looked into it when I was short of money but rich in underwear Grin
You can also sell lollipops (1 guess where they've been) and hosiery.
Gym gear was a winner, too

TitaniasCloset · 07/02/2018 13:57

Blimey. A small part of me is tempted and weighing up my morals but how would I explain that to the family, or the nosy people in the post office?

Clandestino · 07/02/2018 14:01

I'd probably dress my chair in them.
Not sure how I'd feel if I knew someone is wanking off to my ebay post but hey, you are attractive, OP Grin.

IamAporcupine · 07/02/2018 14:01

I am the same - half disgusted half tempted

WellThatsATurnipForTheBooks · 07/02/2018 14:02

Haha yes at the Post Office they always ask what's in the parcel or package. What would you say? "It's manky used underwear but don't worry it's vacuum packed"

KakunaRattata · 07/02/2018 14:40

The paranoid side of me would have my skin cells ending up being tested in some kind of criminal investigation. I couldn't willingly give my dna on a lollipop stick to any old perv. I'll stick with being skint.

Springtrolls · 07/02/2018 14:47

My best selling items on eBay are my old worn out possessions. One woman's rubbish and all that. Been selling things for years.
