Me: I feel like a SAHM again. I didn't get a shower until 3 and I spent all day digging around the house for junk to sell on Ebay.
Kevin: Hmm.
Me: I'm selling that Frederick's of Hollywood corset that sat in a bag in our bedroom for over a year. I'd totally buy it. $10 for a new corset? Come on! But Ebay is like FLOODED with all this lingerie stuff so I probably won't get my $80 back. It's kind of gross, really.
Kevin: *weird look*
Me: I put my old fat bras up and there are 23 people watching them.
Kevin: Eww! Why would anyone want a used bra?
Me: 'Cause bras are $40 a piece!
Kevin: Yeah, but, isn't there boob sweat or something in there? That would be like a guy buying a used jock strap!
Me: So...used bras are disgusting but a USED CORSET is okay?
Kevin: Well...a corset is like a novelty item. And it's only on for a few minutes.
Me: *disgusted snort* Anyway...I wonder if these 23 people are going to duke it out for my used bras. Wouldn't that be funny if I ended up selling them for more than I paid?
Kevin: People on Ebay are retarded.
Me: Oh, wow. Someone just asked a question about my used bras. This is hilarious! Does it really matter how long they were worn?!? *shouting at computer* They are used!!! That's all you need to know!!!
Kevin: See? Retarded.

awesome!
Ok... I can top this as far as the skeeve factor. Like 6 months ago I desperately needed to replace ALL my bras for a new size. I had like 40+ Victoria Secret bras and none of them fit anymore. So I... Sold them. On CRAIGSLIST. That's right, the sketch people who wanted to buy my used bras came to my HOME. And I totally got what was coming to me, because a middle aged creeper of a GUY came and way too eagerly bought every last one!!! And then spent WEEKS emailing me asking if I or any of my friends had any used PANTIES for sale ew ew ew!
(But he bought them all for $20 each and I went out the next day and replaced my entire collection. So if I had it to do all over again I TOTALLY would!) (Also I have since moved, so the creeper no longer knows where I live.)
::adds list used stuff on eBay/craigslist to my to-do list:: wow, people will really buy anything!
OK Kimmers wins on the creep factor.... ewwww!
Ok I just want to make it clear that I completely ignored the request for used panties! I do have a line haha.
Hmmm, I have a drawer full of totally awesome bras that don't fit me anymore too. I've just never thought of Ebay. Nice work!
LOL!
And I kind of have to agree with Kevin. Used bra's are kind of gross.
Sorry.
I never realized there was a market for used bras. I just always throw them out (silently adding up how much they cost as I do so).
I have a good friend who tried to sell her underwear at a garage sale - NOT OK! Bra's I am OK with - except nursing bras, because I know how much gets leaked onto those puppies, and no amount of washing renders them fit for sharing.
And Kimmers - ewww! I'm glad for you that you've since moved, because if it was me I don't think I would ever be comfortable in my home again!
gah, by the time I'm done with my bras the straps are all wavy-like and little strings of elastic are broken and sticking out everywhere. Usually, the hooks are bent in different directions and I have at least one safety pin somewhere holding something in place.
I love my bras to death. Till death do we part. Or, until I need a second safety pin. I have to draw the line somewhere, yo.
This entire post and first few comments made me ROTFLMAO. How literally, you'll never know. (And I myself am questioning the why...)
I've heard of people selling and others buying used underwear online...that hasn't been washed. GROSS.
LOL...I loved the conversation between you and hubby....and think it is a little freaky to buy used stuff like that...but for some people...that is all they can afford...so what is one man's trash...really is another man's treasure.
Hilarious! ebay is like a sociology study.
