>selling used 5 dollar skirt for 45 dollars

>> No.9447685

I bought a Misty Sky replica when I first started out; tried it on and decided I didn't like the fit. Would it be wrong to sell it for like 10$ plus shipping? I don't live anywhere near a comm so I can't just give it to someone new.

It's either that or I try and alter it into a skirt, but I haven't done any sewing in a long time.

I would make something out of the fabric, like pillowcases or little bags. Print replicas aren't allowed on LM anyhow, but I guess you could sell it cheap somewhere else.

Seconding the other anon, use the fabric and make yourself a cute tote bag or something.

This. You'd be surprised at what sells on ebay.

The only replica I ever bought (design, not print) I saved and took to a con swap meet with me. Some weeb kid bought it for $25 and was simply thrilled. Granted, it was a nice replica, but I wanted to rid myself of it still.

What colour is it? Id be willing to take it off your hands depending on the colour

It's navy. I listed it on ebay with a starting bid of $5.00. If it doesn't sell in that time I'd be willing to just give it to you for the shipping cost if you're interested.

I know it's bad ethics but I have a shitty old off-brand dress I spent $90 when i was 15, and if I can rope some 15 year old into spending $40 on it then God dammit I will.

Who are you people? Actually never mind, just leave.

I can sort of see the logic behind it, Kidsyoyo was one of the better taobao brands way back then, and priced themselves to reflect that, and this was actually a pretty good replica (egl had a decent side-by-side comparison review), Plus, they're inactive now, so if you're after this print, either you hunt forever for the original, or be saddled with a sad Milanope, or else there's this dress.

It's just. Like it's 2017, replicas aren't cool anymore, pastel sweet is so last decade. What rock has this girl been living under.

There is a replica Facebook page and depending on the quality of your replica, it may sell for 50~70 usd
I've seen it happening

Not even into super cutesy OTT but people that think that still wearing pastel sweet is "zomg sooo lame" are eyeroll inducing

Eh, I still wear it.

But I know better than to price a kidsyoyo pastel sweet replica at $150 like it's still 2010.
