EBAY DELIGHTS...AND NIGHTMARES...

Bought these excellent condition (unworn) beauties off ebay.  They only cost £7 (including postage) and are by LoveLabel.  Bit fecking tight around the front though- as I'm writing this I'm wearing them, trying to break them in!!!!

Also, recently bought this lovely silk Next top.  The post said it was a size 16, and as I'm a 14-16, depending on the style or brand, it seemed a perfectly decent bet.  But when it came, it was a size 14, and a small 14 at that- more like a 10.  This was easily rectified by adding a plain, contrast satin panel at the back, then elasticating it to fit perfectly (easy when you possess the skills that I do!)

But why, oh why, can't ebay sellers read labels and list their items correctly?  I once successfully bid on a pair of size 6 shoes, only to find they were a (clearly marked) 8 when they arrived.  The seller was okay about it and gave me a full refund, but c'mon, it's not frigging rocket science, is it?!
