i am selling a plus size wedding dress for a friend...put the size of the young lady modeling it, put the needed measurements and the reserve price all in the description...
within 2 hours of listing it reached the reserve price...
i receive an email from the bidder thanking me for putting the measurements and reserve in the description, it made it so much easier for her to know what to bid...that was 5 days ago.
tonight she changes her bid to who knows what..reason? she bid the wrong amount????

We sell wedding dresses, It is a very common thing to happen. If I had $1 for each time someone wrote & said "My wedding has been cancelled" I would be rich.
Some of them will use BIN & a couple of hours write & their wedding has been cancelled. Lots of times i look to see what they have bid on and it's guess what? more wedding dresses. Very Irritating!!

I believe that many of these people don't even have a wedding scheduled. Bidding on a dress allows them to experience the bride fantasy for a little while.
See "Muriel's Wedding".
