A used Whisper Of Gilt just sold for £72 on ebay - ridiculous price!

Kind of interesting, don't most European retailers refuse to accept used cosmetics for returns? Interesting that eBay is reversed
It's as long that we state that the item is used, we could sell it. When we prepare the listing on the phone, the only option we could select is 'New'. When buying, I always take a good look at the photo to see if the item has been used or what... I usually stick to the sellers I purchased from before, at least I know then that the item hasn't been used

USA ebay doesn't allow selling used cosmetics. i guess it's different in europe

We're not allowed to sell used cosmetics on ebay in the UK, either - the person listed it as New, but wrote in the description that it had been used. They could have had their listing removed if someone had reported it.

just insane. It's a pity some people can make money this way (and unbelievable that some people still buy those overpriced, even used items just for the hype).

I'm not really into ebay, so I don't know how it is here. Some time ago, I took part in a german sales/swap forum for clothes and makeup (kleiderkreisel for those who know), where used items are allowed, but I only sold polishes and fragrances which aren't as bacteria-prone. Tried to get rid of my Reel Sexy lippie when it had been launched for the first time, which I declared as worn once, but nobody wanted it, so it went into my B2M bin. But there also are cheapo drugstore products offered, with a hit pan and nasty, smudgy packaging. Well, I guess nobody's buying them (hopefully). I would't even think of uploading those items, just yikes. All in all, that forum is kinda exhausting and too much effort to really make money, so now, I just B2M the things I don't like straight away. But there also are people who buy clothes from several hyped brands in store (like Urban Outfitters, Hollister, Topshop, Primark...not really spectacular, I know, but we only got those stores in a few big cities) or LE makeup items to resell them intentionally to naive people for an exaggerated price. What a shame those kinda people still win. Sorry for the off-topic essay :)

I quite enjoyed reading that off topic essay, but it is true what you are saying. I've seen people bid stupid money for Runner and Gunner last year. Some idiot pushed my bid to such an extent for Petals and Peacocks from Liberty of London a few weeks ago, I was gonna cancel my bid altogether. Another person also done the same thing with TTT. I really don't know if these sellers get their mates to push the bids up or what, but it is a f***ing piss take

Has anyone purchased the new Mineralize Timecheck Lotion?

If so, I would like to know the ingredients before i buy something that might irritate my skin.

THX.
