Baffled, Perplexed & Mystified
Yes, yes I am.
My daughter has become, in her own words, the eBay whisperer.
She downloaded the app and has scored some finds that leave me completely stupefied.
A JCrew necklace retailing for $150 became a Mother's Day gift for a mere $14.50?
Did it fall off a truck, is it a knockoff?
I can't find a single difference when comparing this with the item sold from JCrew.com
More to be found here.
A BCBGMAXAZRIA Silk Cotton Tank with Croquet Trim, new with tags.
Listed at $98 retail, this beauty arrived after she parted with a whopping $2 - and that included shipping.
How?
And this one? UGG Boots, new with a Nordstrom Sticker on the bottom boasting a retail price of $249.95.
What did she score the pair for? $10. Yes, with shipping.
I feel like I'm missing something.
Not that I'm complaining...but am I the one who just fell off the "turnip truck?"

Wow, those are some unbelievable deals! Maybe Isabella should start a blog: Thrifty Teen! Good job, Isabella!
Love, Michiganhome
what app? just the ebay app?
Wow! Can you please have her contact my kids on how she does it?! Lol. My eldest is 19, and I thought she was good at finding deals :) Way to go Isabella! -Jen
Just the eBay shopping app...I know, she has astounded me. I've hired her to do all my shopping from now on and will pay a commission! :)

What what? I am without words. Can I hire her? Such darling finds.
I just bought that same necklace in yellow! I'm wondering myself, what truck did it fall off of?!
Can I borrow her for a while???
Holy cow!!!
Wow!! Those are such great deals! I've wanted that JCrew necklace and now I'm going to ebay for it! :) Thanks for sharing!
eBay is a treasure trove. I'm currently wearing my "JCREW" bubble necklace in salmon and coral!

I'm in the process of updating my closet and am having a terrible time; does she accept clients? My address is in my profile; please have her email me if she's interested.
Ummm.... Give Isabella my number, lol!!! HOW IN THE WORLD?!?! She's the queen of shopping! I just received my first purchase from ebay today and let me tell you, I paid nowhere near those prices!!!
Way to go Isabella!
Quite the shopper Isabella is! Yes, is she for hire? She found amazing deals. She has a great fashion eye!
Sorry gals, I've got her booked working on my summer wardrobe. If she has any openings in the future I'll keep you all posted. Ha, Ha....

Wow! A girl after my own heart! I love shopping online, and have found many a bargain, but none like these! Great job Isabella! Ugg boots for $10?...unbelievable! Like I am always telling my husband..."its not how much I spend, but look how much I saved!"
That is so cool! I need to crack the Ebay code!
Ebay is awesome. I get all kind of good deals there. I like selling there also. The more I see that necklace, the more I want one.
Thank your daughter for me! Before her find, the cheapest I could find was $49 - and $14.50 is so much better! I just treated myself to the tourquiose one. Yay!
Wow...ebay whisperer is right! Go Isabella!!
That is some seriously impressive shopping. Well done!
Ok, can you send her my way. I have never scored such great deals on ebay. I love that necklace and the UGGs are exactly me. Awesome.
Wow. I really need an Isabella in my life.
As the "Dumb Blonde E-bay Shopper" I am in awe of your offspring's skills. Impressive. Will wait with baited breath for a post elaborating on this.
Warmly, Michelle
I've never been that lucky on ebay! She is an ebay whisperer for sure! Those boots - at that price- AMAZING!
Wow that's some savvy shopping! I need lessons :)
Thank you for posting this. It’s exactly what I was looking for!

Wowser, do tell! How is she finding those? I don't know if I'm putting in the wrong search clues, but I sure don't find deals like that!
thanks for the tip, I just purchased the necklace! Yay! Melaine
I found the same eBay necklace a couple months back and ordered it in every color. who cares if it's a knockoff at 90%? J.Crew's quality isn't too much better. I bought my first bubble necklace at JC and it broke within a week. These seem to be a little more heavy duty. You have a very resourceful little girl!

That stuff has to be stolen!
These are most likely over stocks from high end department stores.
I don't know if this relates to the items you mentioned, but just last week I saw a news magazine segment (can't remember, maybe CNBC) on shop lifting and how the thieves sell their wares on ebay and craigslist at fantastic prices - brand new, tags still on. The problem is getting really bad for retailers.
WHAT???? Ebay???? Need to come out of my cave!!!
As soon as I got the ebay app I found I won items way more -- it's addictive! In fact I got that very same necklace in another color!
