RE: Bought but not worn?

Vanessa · Kate Spade

I sold a chanel clutch about two years ago. Is this some kind of new ebay policy? A normal person can't sell Chanel anymore? I wonder if they require a certain amount of feedback? Could you try again?
Sorry for all the questions and the hijack to the thread. ebay policies really bug me sometimes!

Got to add to my own post here.
A GORGEOUS pair of Chanel quilted over the knee boots. I wore them once. They are so pretty but just not practical in my life. Ebay won't let me sell Chanel for whatever reason. So I have a ridulously expensive pair of boots. Mocking me.

Do you have a pic? what size are you?

Pics stolen from Ebay
I'm an 8.5. I paid $2500 for them

bought a dress to wear to a wedding when I was on a trip (so no way to return once I got home). I thought it was cute in the store, but when I got home I decided it was a cross between "earth mother" and something my grandmother would wear at a retirement home in Florida. Plus it was a LEAST one size too big. Needless to say, it has never been worn.

A high waisted black yellow and white pencil skirt last summer. I haven't worn it because I don't really know what kind of top to wear it with. It is really gorgeous! (may be I'll take pics and ask for your suggestions...)
A pair of beautiful golden sandals I wore for about 1 hour at sis' wedding, then changed to a pair of wedges.
My gray booties... They are really cool, but I walk a lot during the day, so I can't wear them to go to work.

Yes, please post it! It sounds gorgeous.

Not knowing exactly what they look like, could you pair the grey booties with some grey tights, the yellow/black/white skirt and maybe a simple grey top?

Although I can't think of a specific piece, I usually do this with clothing that I "put on a pedestal," so to speak. You know, you wait and wait for the perfect time or event that is worthy enough for you to wear this dress or that sweater.

Ebay lost a lawsuit and I believe the ruling was that they are to be held responsible for sales of counterfit items and are liable to hefty fines if they do so I think they've put some restrictions on luxury goods.

I am pleased to report I wore an item Sunday that had been hanging in my closet, never worn, since the beginning of January - a basic black Evan Picone long-sleeved wrap dress, $6 at Ross.

Now the only unworn thing is a thrifted DVF spaghetti strap wiggle dress in a red/camel leopard print. I posted pictures of it a long time ago because I was looking for shoes, and I still haven't bought any for it. That's been hanging around since last summer.
