[TheAwesomeBunny1]

Those shoes are CUTE!!!

[TonTeezy2010]

I like how she does her videos casually dressed.

[beapinkie9]

Whenever shopping you should click on the little box on the site and change it to lowest to highest to get good deals :D

[itskena]

hmmm, do you ever wofry that the 'ladies' will bid on the item themselves vs authenticating it for you?

[khanhuyen239]

I love how your last name is same as mine <3

[VondasBeautyJournal]

This was super helpful. Ive been dying to purchase my first pair of louboutins but I always thought they were out of my league. Now I know they arent THAT far out of reach. Your the best!

[dianneweil]

thanks Wendy! this is EXTREMELY HELPFUL! keep up the good work love! from your fan in Malaysia ^_^

[lifesabeach3100]

[geegeetube]

I just discovered your site!...I am so impressed by your quality videos, but I found this video to be one of the best sites I have come across for ebay shopping. I think it is one of underused ways of shopping. I have shopped on ebay for the last 2 years, and after watching this...I will be even more diligent!

[EighteenPrettyYears]

ohmygod you are AMAZING, this is SO informative and this was super helpful! thank you so much for taking the time to show us the right way to go about such a delicate thing as shopping on ebay :D

[JoulesAmerica]

I am in the market for a Louis Vuitton bag and would like to purchase it on Ebay. However, I do not know what exactly makes a Louis Vuitton authentic. Would you be able to help me? I'm not even sure where I would find a store that would sell that brand in order to see it and then compare to the ones on Ebay. Please help! Joules

[Bewhoyouare247]

U are the cutest, funniest and one of the best gurus here! Creds !

[Patty23Yu]

[LtCdrW]

This was very helpful. Thank you.

[overwhelming76]

Thank you so much for the info. I just did my first auction on ebay a few days ago for a Louis Vuitton Alma purse!!! With your helpful video, I was able to ensure that the purse was authentic. And I won my auction. The retail value for the purse was $1,250 and I was able to get it for $255 plus a $10 shipping fee. So thank you so much for your help. Now I'm addicted to ebay. Right now I'm in an auction for a matching wallet for my purse. Wish me luck!!! Thanks again.

[INDIANSTARRFIGHTER25]

Thank you soooo much for your guidance. I just recently decided to shop on ebay and I'm glad you decided to make that video. :) THANKS

[shimm14]

[Coquete82L]

[Geeorgiababyy]

Your videos are like a fashion bible -3

[luizalarcher]

Hi Wendy!! Really nice your new topic, I buy on eBay a lot and it is kind of vicious!! Thanks for your tips, maybe someday I'll be able to buy an louboutin!!! Please give great advises for purses and clothes because I would love to see it! Congrats to mistery man, he is very good in the filming and editing.

[mopsy3568]

Really useful advice thanks x

[mnorissa]

This video is really 101 for anyone who wants to go shopping on Ebay! =DDD

I have just found two letters switched when you take note of the tips: on "detailed pictures" is written "deatiled pictures"... ;)

[MichelleCheungX]

that helps a lot ^o^ 1 thing, i dnt even now how to set up an ebay and paypal accunt properly T_T

[TheFuzzyMittens]

Hi Wendy! You mentioned that you're a size 4.5 in shoes - As a size 4 myself, I've always struggled with finding shoes that fit. My last 2 shoe buys have been from the kids department.

Do you have any tips for making too-big shoes work? Thanks!

[juicynade]

really helpful, thank you so much

[inedat]

Hey Wendy, I was just wondering....I always buy my CLs brand new and know that my shoes "mold" onto my feet after some wear. Does it make a difference if somebody else has "broken in" the shoes and has molded them to their feet prior to you? There's a couple of shoes that they don't make anymore and I would love to get some pre-loved ones but very wary of the fit. Thank you!

[quixoticgirly]

I'm sure you get asked this about a million times per day, but what camera are you using here? I'm shopping for a new one for filming my videos. Thanks so much for your time! xo Angela

[quixoticgirly]

Fantasic video! I used to sell designer items on Ebay and I've been buying on Ebay and consignment stores for many years. I go through almost the exact same process. I've gotten some awesome deals and all authentic! Thanks for doing this. You are amazing! xoxo Angela

[SaraDylan39]

Great video! I can't stand fakes. I think there are beautiful things out there that don't cost a fortune, but if you are after that fine quality you have to understand that it comes at a cost. eBay is full of fakes so it make sence to be careful. Thank you for the tips.

[Rhautz]

SHOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

GREAT HUG

[roseloomis01]

I actually discovered your videos on TPF :) Great video, very informative, thank you!!

[onesmileygirl]

Great video! I use the Purse Blog forum too!

[dianebunny123]

I love this video!

its a great guide to ebay for a newbie like me!

i can't wait for the other two videos!

<3

[snowbunniehoney]

so helpful. thanks!

[extrapetiteblog]

I loved this video! I've been shopping on ebay for about 10 years and go through the EXACT process as you ... feedback, items sold, items currently selling, pics, description, and then email the seller lol and maybe authenticate on TPF. I'm a huge pain in the butt buyer and always ask for more photos. Some ppl are snobby about pre-owned things but I think with a good wash/sanitation the items are good as new.

[mrpatrolroll]

Thank you! This is so informative.

[tdlishy]

My goodness Wendy, this video was such a good idea and very well executed. I feel more confident to start perusing ebay for higher-end buys. A big thanks to you and mystery man, the greatest team on youtube!

[MsILoveCrayons]

I just want to tell you how awesome I think you are! You are so so so sweet and you are very thoughtful. I really enjoy watching your videos. I am also glad to know that you are not afraid to hunt for a bargain and share it with others! Thanks for being you!

[yimchoyee]

You are so adorable, thanks for telling us the tips:)

[mia842nyc]

This was a great idea Wendy. It's so helpful! Thank youthful!

[JustJamieXO]

you're the best! this was SO helpful! x

[passionfrt]

omgosh size 4.5 feet? soo tiny!! :O

[SuperLITTLEfeet]

@passionfrt

im size 1-2!! hehe

[o0candikat0o]

@passionfrt In the pairings: lace shirt video she said she's 5 feet tall. Unless I heard wrong? :)

[o0candikat0o]

@passionfrt Yeah, I read your post wrong, LOL (Before my first coffee of the day)

[OhWowLovelyXx0]

@passionfrt im 4.5 to ! :)

[babybluangelz]

@passionfrt LOL mine are size 4.5 too and it's soo difficult to find nice shoes to fit our tiny feet 

[Marie428P]

Soo helpfull!! thanls Wendy :)

[sosorah]

Thank you for the tips, Wendy! You're so helpful!

[oowatwat]

You are made of AWESOME for this. Seriously this is probably one of the most helpful vids from fashion gurus EVER.

[AnimePRFury]

This is actually good to know if ever I wanted to SELL something on Ebay too! I know what sellers would be looking for in terms of information and pictures. Thank you so much :D

[AprilAthena7]

Your place loooks soo nice Wendy even though you don't have furniture yet. I loove Ebay! Thank you so much for sharing! I was wondering what is the name of the Louboutin boots you wore in your last video? I looove them so much! I gotta save for them!

[LaureentheMean]

Another thing to remember is that the sizing changes depending on the style and even the season, so I would always get an insole measurement if possible. Also, people in larger size ranges tend to need to size up more while smaller feet tend to stay more true to size.

When you post for authentication on The Purse Forum, please read the first post of the thread to see the rules for posting.

Thanks for the video!

[nessisms]

Lovely video! I was just wondering, how do you determine if a show is in good condition? I just saw a pair on ebay, and it had some black patches on the front inner sole of the shoe. Is that water damage?

What other defects should we look for?

[Lexilla]

Oh no! I'm already an ebay shopper and you just influenced me to start shopping!!

[SmileSwirly]

Wendy I think you should make a facebook fanpage!! I would definately love to see what your up to!!

[AnimePRFury]

@SmileSwirly she does have one . Search for Wendy's Lookbook under Pages. :)

[ChotskiBelle]

Thanks for making the video. This was very helpful! :)

[moreCHANELplease]

with my Louboutin's all the sizes usually run true to size. it is hard to buy them online sometimes. i am a 5 1/2 us. and 35 1/2 in most of my louboutins.so mostly always true to size for me. Rolandos though, i am in a 36.

my Decollete's i am in 35 1/2. my YOYO's im a 35 1/2. my n' prive i am in a 35 1/2 but they were onsale for only $400 but only in a size 35, i still got them anyway. they fit great thanks to the slingback, but i think if they had my true size it would have been a perfect fit.

[analyst1506]
