What's frustrating is that just last week I could have snapped up these boots in a size 38.5 on therealreal.com for $245 less a 20% discount for a real deal at $197!

Long black leather opera gloves sell really well!
I watched these 26.5" long black leather opera gloves go from $81.00 to $144.70 in the last 10 seconds of bidding. I figure they sold so well for a couple of reasons: 1) they're a popular size 8.5 and 2) I suspect they're vintage Classic Leatherwear gloves.
Although the seller didn't stated that they were custom made, I've owned these gloves before and the elastic at the wrist and the fact that they're lined in a black silky material make me think these are Classic Leatherwear.
These are highly sought after leather gloves that I believe originated in Canada, but are no longer made. I was fortunate to get my hands on a pair on eBay several years ago for $125 and later sold them on because they weren't getting enough use.

A deal on vintage black leather thigh boots with metal heels
Although I put in a decent bid, someone got a deal on these vintage black leather thigh boots with sexy metal stiletto heels for $87.07. The bidding on these size 8 boots started at $79. These appear to be in excellent, very lightly worn condition.
These sexy boots measure an impressive 28" high with a 4.5" heel. Probably tricky to walk in, but I bet the sound they make on a hard surface is very impressive!
These remind me of vintage Frederick's of Hollywood boots from the early 1990s.

A UK seller models some very nice black leather thigh-high boots
UK boot seller "br0nn1e" sold these nicely modeled size 39.5 French designer (Gaborit?) black leather thigh-high boots for $156.74. These boots featured an impressive 4.5" stiletto heel and an overall 28" height. The seller stated that they'd been worn inside only a couple of times. If international shipping hadn't been a pricey $46, I would have been very tempted by these beautiful boots!
North Beach Leather black leather military dress sells well

Between the gold piping, the epaulets, the double row of gold buttons down the front, and the detail on the back, this dress is exquisite!

Beautiful vintage OTK boots from Amsterdam sell very well
A seller in Amsterdam got a very deserving $183.50 for these beautiful vintage dark brown leather over-the-knee boots. International shipping was even a reasonable $20.00.
With the narrow stacked heel and straight shaft, the style of these boots is timeless. Even better, they were a popular size EU 41 (US 10). In fact, they look so dark in the photos, I originally thought they were black. Of course, these would look amazing worn over skinny jeans.
The seller stated that they came from a vintage store in Amsterdam, and given that city's history, you have to wonder if these boots have a colorful past!
