A new glove seller does really well on eBay

A new glove seller has appeared on the eBay scene and is doing really well.  “redeuxshop” has listed several pairs of long leather gloves recently.  All have been nicely modeled and sold for good prices.

These size 7.5 French black leather opera gloves measured an impressive 30” long and sold for an even more impressive $216.50.  If these are vintage, the seller appears to have identical pairs which have sold for $182.50 and $202.50.

These size 7.5 chocolate brown leather opera gloves also measured an impressive 30” and sold for $162.50.

These size 7.5 navy blue leather opera gloves also measured 30” and sold for a very impressive $205.50.  I also like how this seller models her gloves with jewelry.

A favorite eBay boot seller returns with nice OTK boots

eBay boot seller “livefire” listed these size 39 / 9 Zara black leather OTK boots for $85.00, but sold them for a Best Offer price.  These boots featured a 4” spiked heel and rear zipper.  These versatile boots would look great at the office paired with a skirt or for a night out worn over skinny jeans.  I also found it interesting that the seller listed these boots as a “blogger favorite.”




The same seller listed these very nice size 8.5 Santa Barbara tall black leather boots for $70.00, but it appears that they didn’t sell.  The seller stated that these were “nearly over the knee” and originally retailed for $175.00.  These were previously worn and appear to be vintage, but I personally find this style very appealing.  Like the Zara boots above, these would also look great paired with a skirt or skinny jeans.

A UK boot seller does well with high-end thigh boots for the holidays

UK eBay boot seller "br0nn1e" sold these stunning size 40 / 9 Biondini black leather thigh-high boots for a very deserving $370.  The seller described these as the "most perfect ultra high thigh boots" which measured 34" with a 5" heel.  These boots were "new with box" and as always from this seller, very nicely modeled.

The same seller sold these equally stunning size 40 / 9 Fernando Berlin black leather thigh-high boots for a deserving $312.  These were 33" tall with 4.75" heels.

And finally, these size 40 / 9 Italian black leather thigh-high boots with 5.75" heels sold for $385.  From heel to top, these babies measured 33.75"!

Post-holiday vintage boot round-up

These Biondini black leather thigh-high boots look stunning until you see the condition of the heels.  These size 7 boots sold for $39 and included their original box.

These nicely-modeled vintage black leather thigh boots sold for $76.00.  These size 7.5 boots were labeled by the seller as "Pretty Woman" boots.  Although the seller didn't state a brand, the model code on the bottom would indicate that these are "Wild Pair" boots that originally sold for $139.00.

Speaking of "Wild Pair," these vintage black leather chap boots made a rare appearance and sold for a deserving $151.27 (with pricey $18 shipping).

Although the seller indicated they were "old and worn" with "lots of defects," someone got a real deal on these vintage Dolce & Gabbana over-the-knee black suede boots.  These size 36.5 boots sold for $26!

One of my favorite eBay leather sellers returns after a long absence

After a long absence, eBay seller "leather_doll" is back!

Although this vintage 1980s leather skirt only sold for $9.99, I like her modeling, especially pairing the skirt with spiky black leather knee-high boots and long black leather gloves!

Hopefully we'll see more auctions from "leather_doll" in the future!

Stunning vintage black leather opera gloves from Saks Fifth Avenue sell for $127.50!

These stunning vintage Italian black leather opera gloves by Saks Fifth Avenue sold for a deserving $127.50.  These 23" long gloves came with the original $125 Saks price tag still attached.

If these are vintage, I would not guess they're older than the 1990s as the tag looks fairly recent.

The seller also stated that they came with their original box.  If someone bought these for a Christmas gift, they definitely made a nice presentation!

The seller estimated that these were a size 7 and if they had been my size, I definitely would have put in a high bid as these are the best-looking vintage gloves I've seen on eBay in quite awhile!

Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" over-the-knee boots continue to sell well years after their original release

I was hoping to snag these Stuart Weitzman "Hilo" boots in a rare size 9 for their starting bid of $250.  What's interesting is that the seller originally listed these without a "Buy It Now" option.  However, it appears that someone contacted the seller and they negotiated at "Buy It Now" price of $350 and the seller relisted them with that option.  This was more than I wanted to spend, but I was prepared to put in a bid at the original starting price of $250, especially considering they appear to be in pristine condition.


Even more interesting is that the seller stated they purchased these about two weeks ago for $450 and that they were only worn once.  These had to have been purchased on the secondary market (consignment?) as they haven't been available outside of eBay for several years now.

Regardless, I'm still glad to see these boots fetch a good price!  Also, not bad for the seller's first sale considering their feedback rating was "0" and they just joined eBay last week!
