My love affair with Ebay started a long, long time ago, ladies, and I encourage you to take the plunge. If you don't already use Ebay as a source for high end cosmetics at low prices, what's stopping you? Honestly, the Recessionista would like to know. Is it the idea that the products may not be sanitary? That they may have been tampered with or from old stock? I'm living proof that this not the case. The Recessionista has purchased many a high end product from Ebay sellers with excellent reputations for selling first-rate, quality products at affordable prices.Now, why would you go to the Bobbi Brown counter and purchase a Kir lipstick (a gorgeous shimmery, medium plum brown shade) for $20 plus tax when you can purchase the exact same product for $10.98 with no tax and FREE shipping from a reputable seller on Ebay?
As long as you do your research, ask questions, and READ the seller's feedback profile, you can walk way with a bonafide STEAL. Go to ebay.com and do a search for one of your high-end staple products or a product you no longer buy because you can't afford the department store price. I think you'll be amazed at what you find.
And don't even get me started on the money you can save on perfumes. The Recessionista does not have time to compose an elaborate love letter on this topic, at least for today. But do stay tuned.
The only thing I'm scared of is that the products will be knock-offs and not the original brand.
