There are things that should not be...

all kinds of wrong

NOOOO! She did it again!

Why? Please please stop this abuse of poor defenseless vintage underwear...

Vampires, Nipples, and The Possessed

It's just another day on Etsy...

People who steal other people's listings

2009-06-03T10:09:00.000-07:00

I invite you to compare this current ebay listing:

1920s/1930s PEACH sheer Buttons dress flapper long

With this item sold on etsy:

http://www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=16067657

Very not cool.

Also these:

Vintage 40s Sheer Silk Chiffon Floral Gown Dress Slip

http://www.etsy.com/view_transaction.php?transaction_id=16059885

It's a Shit Necklace.

2009-05-28T15:18:00.000-07:00

Literally.

Genuine Moose poop. Joy.

I can see your lady bits....

2009-05-27T04:03:00.000-07:00

It's just yet another reason to model swimsuits ON A DRESSFORM!

This just scares the crap out of me:

2009-05-20T11:49:00.000-07:00

All you have to do....

2009-05-17T09:43:00.000-07:00

....Is sew on the ovaries! This comes unstuffed with a how to guide for sewing on the remaining bits.

As the dear reader who sent this into us says:

"Like that's frigging normal?!"

Tim Adam and his $47 a month "Etsy Secrets"

2009-05-16T09:56:00.000-07:00

Bloody ridiculous.

The whole site is set up like a bad work at home scam - and in all fairness, compared to a lot of other etsians, he doesn't even have that many sales.

And - if you have a spare $47 a month - you don't need his "secrets" anyhow - spend the money on advertising, making new stuff, or just buy yourself a present and put that positive energy into your shop.

His whole 'oooo am only going to let the first 200 people in" is bull. How would you know if more signed up?

Seriously people - don't fall for this crap - the man is trying to pull money out of desperate people - all the information you need is in the etsy forums, or on blogs, or is plain old common sense.

And stop spamming twitter damn it.

***Edit***

I know I said I'd never name names - but this is outright scamville. I apologise.

There is no such thing as too little nippleage

2009-05-15T07:42:00.000-07:00

Especially when we're talking about a one of a kind 1920s dress. No one wants to wear it after you've shown it over your bits. Fact.

Has anyone actually used one of these?

2009-05-13T07:18:00.000-07:00

In public? I'd love a show of hands...

Makes me say "I WANTS!"

2009-05-11T15:13:00.000-07:00

The enraptured expressions on the faces of the onlookers...

I never knew to accessorize my vintage dress with a Zorro mask...

For Men?

2009-05-11T04:02:00.000-07:00

The following two listings are tagged specifically for men...

This is a fab ONE OF A KIND tie dyed pair of boy pants...

And I know these are for men - but still made me giggle in a childish way:

Dolls that Scare me

2009-05-10T06:27:00.000-07:00

What scares me about this it that the shop owner deemed it necessary to blank out their bits...

I'm hoping these are joke photos

2009-05-08T15:37:00.000-07:00

I'm lost for words. These are in listings that I'm assuming the shop owners wish to sell....

Is it me....

2009-05-07T14:48:00.000-07:00

.....or does this mannequin only have one breast?

Too much money - Too few brain cells.

2009-05-07T06:37:00.000-07:00

Would you pay $375 for what only can be described as a yeti costume?

Love it

2009-05-07T05:18:00.000-07:00

Kudos to this shop - made me spew my morning coffee all over the keyboard.

I also love the product description.....
All right ladies, home boyz put that Kate Bush album on (The Kick Inside), not too loud, and listen to it all the way through. Do some stretching and slow progressions to "Moving...." (picture one) About the time you get to "Man With Whe Child In His eyes" feast your eyes on picture number two. Look deep inside, open up to that inflection, consider, your imaginary FANTASY YOU. Now you're probably hearing the epic piano roll of "James And The Cold Gun" Check out picture number three, thats right, start jumping around, launch yourself into oblivion, be gay as hell! I mean Jolly! Be a homosexual too, Cus these undies, dont know gender, they dont know shit about being on more than five minutes after you drop your jeans listening to "L'Amour Looks Something Like You" with your special boytoy/ladylove --making out like crazy. I am an object, I make american apparel look subtle. Im the real thing, the worlds fastest underwear are the real thing. Women can get these manties in pantie form upon request, more undies coming out CONSTANTLY in honor of our tutorial debut at ......

Sometimes one should just accept that you shouldn't model

2009-05-07T04:45:00.000-07:00

Not a good look.

Sometimes People dig their own holes...

2009-05-07T02:58:00.000-07:00

It is a shame that such people are allowed to sell vintage.

This one is titled "Roaring 40s Dress".

Yes that's the label. Woolite? A red, white and blue union tag?

Choose carefully

2009-05-06T15:59:00.000-07:00

Why does this dress form have nipples?

But I want lingerie!

2009-05-06T12:42:00.000-07:00

Or I did. Then I saw this:

I don't want to see my lingerie over someone else's lady bits... ever.

And I lost my lunch.

Apparently the model is 'wearing a tight' which makes everything okay....
Thoughts?
