Hi. I'm Scarlett. This is my Ebay store. The End.
Just kidding.
Those things are true, but there's a little more to the story. When I picked up the quaint hobby of burlesque performance about three years ago, I needed some sparkly costumes. I longed for sequined corsets custom made in France, but I realized that unless I won the lottery or found a wealthy benefactor I would have to just do it myself. Unfortunately, I lacked both a sewing machine and the knowledge of how to even go about making a corset. I did, however, have a pile of Swarovski crystals and some glue. So I started attacking things I already owned to make them stage-worthy. And then I started buying new ready-to-wear corsets to customize. I figured that if I was buying all of these corsets, I should just buy A LOT of them and sell the ones I didn't need.
So here they are! I've personally found that Heavy Red and Tripp NYC have some of the more comfortable and reasonably priced corsets on the market, so those are the brands I concentrate on. My non-stage style sensibilities lean toward the gothic, so I also have other assorted clothing, jewelry, and accessories available from time to time. Need some custom pasties in the shape of Hello Kitty or Jack Skellington? I can help you there, too. Unless otherwise noted, my items are brand new from the manufacturer. What you do to them once you own them is entirely up to you.
All of that being said, I try to be as fair and accurate in my listings and Ebay dealings as possible. I'm not a big chain store, but I try to offer the best prices I can on the items I sell. I'm usually at least 5-10% below the suggested retail, and frequently even more when it's time to pay the credit card bill. If you want to bargain on things, I'm willing to hear your offer. . .but please be reasonable when doing so. Just to reiterate: I'm NOT a big chain store. I'm just a girl with some bedazzled corsets and a dream, but I need to pay the bills and eat just like you do.
I usually have a backlog of things I need to list, so if you see something you like and don't see your size, it's quite possible that I have it hanging around. Just send me a message and I'll respond as soon as possible--I have a regular day job in addition to performing, so it may take a day for me to dig through my stash and get back to you, but I will get back to you. I am also willing to add special request items to my stock orders from suppliers.
Thanks for taking the time to check out my listings, and thanks even more to those of you who buy something ;)
xoxo,
-scarlett.
If you made it through all of that and didn't find what you were looking for, check the store policies page for general information and FAQs. And if you STILL don't find it...maybe you should be looking somewhere other than Ebay.
