The ones that got away

[Lady Day]

This pattern was part of an unnoticed lot and I went to sleep but my high bid was not high enough.

I am sooo stupid! I was just watching this auction and it had ten minutes left, I was all fired up for increasing my bid. While I waited I read stuff on the forum...and forgot to bid. It sold really cheaply and it#s cashmere. :eusa_doh::cry:

I could weep, I really could

LadyDay- That pattern is amazing. I saw another one similar to that on Woodland Farms. I love the idea of remaking things and I love sleeve and yoke options.

 

[Drappa]

Totally out of my price range, but so beautiful!

Cute owls but may due to the angle but the eyes don't look too clear or possibly you could tell yourself that anyway.

 

[Lady Day]

Anyone here spend $600 on patterns? :eusa_clap

[Lady Day]

$45 and a 42 bust. Eh.

Love this one.

LD, I was watching that one but can't justify it this close to Christmas shopping time.

 

[dandelion-vint]

I wasn't bidding on this because it wasn't my size. But I was surprised that it only sold for $50

 

[NancyLouise]

Completely worth it with all those rare patterns such as the poodle skirt and walkaway dress

Anyone here spend $600 on patterns? :eusa_clap

yet another sweetheart pin... http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=370458574655&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT

people must have those program things that bid when there is only 1 second left so you can't outbid them. I hate that; I watched it closely, too! Maybe some day I'll manage to snag one of these!

 

[Foofoogal]

I wonder if people are buying them for the silver? That would be awful if they melt them down. Like the silver utensils.

 

[zombi]

^ Oh, I sincerely hope not. I love the sweetheart pins like that, most especially I love the ones with the wee chains on and such. But it does seem that every time I bid on them, I always lose. I have yet to win one and I've been looking for a while! I'm also unlucky enough not to find them around here in estate sales or anything. But! I retain hope that I shall have one some day. I was hoping I could get my hands on an army one of some kind before a dear friend of mine deploys to Afghanistan, but I will just have to keep looking!

Not my items but in a mall I am on. Some seem reasonable to me.

 

[Drappa]

It's a man's cardigan and I wasn't bidding, but so beautiful!

And recently lost this one:

Both cashmere

 

[hailey greenhat]

Oh Drappa! The men's cardigan is amazing!

Ooooh.... welcome to my world! I have a very large collection of rhinestone and bakelite dress clips and I wear them all - on garments, gently as scarf clasps and on the sides of berets. Best wishes for getting started on your obsession!
