I bought these ages ago and haven't worn them yet, due to lack of plain enough tops. I've just seen that they are going (in my size) for £100+ on eBay Shock So do you like them or shall I sell?

i like them, but for that money i would flog them.

HokeyCokeyPigInAPokey · 09/07/2012 17:35

Hideous with my thighs but i quite like them.

How much did you pay for them, i am assuming a lot less.

I would probably sell if you've not worn them and you brought them ages ago.

MsOliveOyl · 09/07/2012 17:36

That's my dilemma pirate - I really like them but have a feeling that by next year I will hate them, and so will everyone else on eBay!

MsOliveOyl · 09/07/2012 17:36

They were £38 Hokey

I quite like them but wasn't keen on the fit when I tried them. Why don't you list them with a Buy It Now or reserve?

MsOliveOyl · 09/07/2012 17:39

monkeys that's a good idea, I usually just start everything at 99p but it might be worth it with these.

The other thing is they fit extremely well and are really flattering. I would pay £££££ for a pair of them in plain black!

I would sell then, lets face it if you really wanted to wear them you would have tracked down a top by now.

You'll more than double your money, sell them!

dexter73 · 09/07/2012 17:42

I love them but if you haven't worn them yet then I would ebay them. Good idea to put a reserve on.

noddyholder · 09/07/2012 17:42

Why are they so much? Sell tehm and go to primark they have spotty skinnies which are actually v nce

MsOliveOyl · 10/07/2012 09:10

I have no idea why they are going for so much noddy. The material is v nice though and the spots are velvet, which I love.

I'd keep them, they look and sound fab. I know you haven't found a top to go with them, but perhaps now you've posted about them it might spur you on to wear them.

You could read through the reviews to get some inspiration on what to wear with them.

MsOliveOyl · 10/07/2012 09:25

You're right, I'm wearing them today NotMost! I bought a nice black tshirt from oasis on my way home yesterday :) Think I will keep them. I looked for them on a few blogs yesterday and think I prefer them with a simple slouchy top rather than the flouncy white shirts people seem to be going for.

WIT has a pair Might give you some ideas if you decide to keep them Smile

SilverSixpence · 10/07/2012 09:31

ok but I would sell them at that price!

MsOliveOyl · 10/07/2012 09:38

Thanks MissBee!

Dropdeadfred · 10/07/2012 09:40

Sell them

dexter73 · 10/07/2012 09:48

Glad to hear you got a top to go with them. At least you know that you can ebay them when you want to.
