Catch from the Bay

I seem to have attracted a few new followers over the last few days so a big hello and welcome to you all; come on in, there's tea and ginger cake on the go so make yourselves comfy. I wanted to share with you a little haul of goodies I pilfered from good old eBay the other day! (well, actually it's been over several days, new things keep appearing, it's a little like Christmas!) What I love about eBay is that there's always something to be found, be it random, interesting, beautiful or bonkers, search and ye shall find treasure in the bay. I went through a long spell of being completely unable to win a thing (I'm no use with these bid snipe sites, though I am sure that is the way forward...) no, I either put in my max bid and pop off and make a cuppa (if it's meant to be and all that), or sit in front of the computer and froth at the mouth when I am outbid in the last 3 seconds. Last week my luck must have been on the turn, mind, as I won several things at a bargainistic price. Let me talk you through them. Exhibit one, a rather pretty 1960's cream and mustard polka dot blouse came in at the £2 mark. A pair of fully lined, 80's finest high waisted tan peg trousers (to keep or to cut into shorts, that's the new dilemma) barely busted my purse seams at a fiver, and the wonderous black suede, flat, over the knee pirate boots were nabbed for a rather gutbusting £4. The last pictures are the details of a gorgeous 70's midi dress, I couldn't get it to photograph looking like anything other than grannys old rags but I am sure it will look better on :) it's so pretty and all for £2. I also bought some vintage polka dot culottes (99p) and a lush vintage peter pan collared dress (£5) which are lost in the bedroom and in the ironing pile respectively, and still to come are a blonde faux fur coat (£5.51) and a vintage handmade faux fur collared blazer (£3). Oh I love a bargain! 

What's been your best eBay buy? Do you shop there?
