As much as Ilove Heaux I would never pay that much for it. It cost $15 when it came out.
I'm always slightly amused when someone pays a ridiculous amount for an item (I expect them to pay more than retail if it's LE and sold out but when you start paying triple retail or more that's doing too much IMO)...and then it comes back out in another collection. I can't knock it though...its a personal decision when it comes to how much you value something. I've just never wanted something so bad that I would pay some of the prices I see.

True. RRB is now Men Love Mystery and Heaux is now D for Danger. Lol In fact, Heaux is coming out next month in a cremesheen. Not so happy about that though. I wish it was a retro matte. I guess beggars can't be choosers.

really hope one day nobody's gonna believe "offers" like this. Those sellers are simply immoral.

I can think of harsher words, but it's before the watershed in the UK
exactly. Well except for four letter words I've got in my head, I think it's a shame that ebay offers like this aren't officially illegal. If it was possible, I'd sit down and report all those scammers.

It's a freaking joke. I wonder if the seller knows that it's perm AND its to be released at the end of the month
They probably do, I have no doubt they're just a scammer banking in the ignorance of others.
I think they can be reported for this. It's one thing to sell something rare for way over list. Selling something that's regularly available for 9 times list is robbery

I think the only way you can report them is if they are intentionally misleading in their listing...not for the prices they set. Unfortunately eBay doesn't limit what a seller can value their items for...but they'll shut them down if they are selling counterfeit or banned items. I wonder if sellers that list perm items at such high prices are targeting people that don't have access to mac at all and can only get it on places like eBay. Would be nice if there was a makeup lover friendly site that specialized in offering CP options for maybe a small fee (like maybe the person going out and buying the item for you gets a little "for your trouble" fee...). I bet that would help curb the highway robbery that sometimes shows up on eBay. Well...at least for perm items. LE stuff will always have a home on eBay at inflated prices as long as they sell out at quickly as they often do

Steady Going with Edge to Edge l/l and NYX Strawberry Parfait butter gloss over it. I had to use a gloss because my lips have been dry the past couple days.
