Direct Sale part One
I'm selling off half my wardrobe. This is 1/3 of what I am selling, there will be weekly posts until I am done. No prices are set in stone. If you think something is priced wrong, feel free to make me an offer. Whatever does'nt sell will be going to ebay, whenever I get the time to figure out the HTML. Shipping is quoted for shipping within the US. In most cases add $10 for international shipping. If it ends up costing less, I'll refund the amount. I would prefer all payment to be made via paypal. My paypal ID is elisabat13@yahoo.com. Please click on the thumbnails to make larger. If this format annoys you, let me know how I can make it better. Always keep in mind that these items come from an animal loving smoking home. If you are allergic to cats, stay away. I will make every effort to remove any and all cat hair but especially on velvet items, some cat hair is inevitable. Eveything is clean and unless otherwise specified, in like-new condition.
