Local retailer sells designer leather opera gloves

A local unclaimed freight retailer sold these designer long black leather gloves by Bottega Veneta for $99.00.  The seller "cargolargo" originally listed them at $149, where they received no bids, then re-listed them at $99 with the same results.  The third time was a charm as they were re-listed with a starting bid of $49 and I watched the price shoot up to $99 in the last few seconds of the auction.

The seller stated these size 6 gloves were 28" long (impressive) and featured the classic 3-line stitching detail on the back of the hand area.  Seller also stated that original retail was $650.


Given that the seller was local, I wish I could have seen these in person.  I definitely would have been interested had they not been such a small size.
