Question:
Do you buy 'used' clothes from ebay?
I know ebay has gone down in peoples estimations recently what with lots of problems and stuff but I was just wondering who still used it and whether you shop only for new stuff or used items as well (particulalrly clothing)?
Question only came about in a debate between a friend and I- shes quite happy to shop at charity shops but wont buy used clothes from ebay, whereas I cant see the difference, although I admit I am the type who shoves it stright in the washing machine the minute it arrives!

I buy 99.99% of stuff from high street shops. I've only ever bought one thing to wear from eBay , and that was a lovely vintage topshop dress.
I love browsing through the stuff on eBay , but would never use it soley for my clothing purchases! Nothing beats "real" shopping IMO
EDIT - I totally read your post wrong , but my answer kind of fits so i'll leave it! :o
Hang on , it doesn't really answer it..:o
I see no problem with "used" clothes as the dress i bought was used but I think that was different as it was vintagy (?) .. I wouldnt buy used jeans IYSWIM
No. I'm not sure why but I don't like the idea of wearing clothes other people have. I think it would be different if I knew the person. I still wear an ex's fleece in winter for example. But a complete random? I find it odd. But then I'm odd :p
I've bought stuff described as 'worn once or twice' (which inreality means about 5 times!) but always bung them in the machine as soon as they arrive with my washing anyway - even the stuff that's descibed as NWOT!
I'm lucky that I find a lot of things NTW though on Ebay. If someone can buy stuff from a charity shop then I don't see the difference is buying used stuf off Ebay :rolleyes:
Some people's denial is amazing isn't it? :lol:
