As many of you know I am looking for Vivienne Westwood Melissa Lady Dragon shoes. I want a certain model and no other - but it's a an old model and sold out - and hard to get on Ebay. This particular model I mean.

If all else fails I will buy a counterfeit from Japan or the USA but firstly I want to go down the ethically correct route and find a second hand pair. Has anyone got a pair in size 5 to sell? Do you know anyone? I'll have them!
Thank you!

Ill show h2b and he can have a look around some of the little "vintage"/2nd hand boutiques near Soho and Carnaby St. he loves shopping about - much more than I do and gives him an excuse to get out of work at lunch times.
Have you put up wanted notices on Gum and Bay?

No problem - Gum is good as you can put on wanted adverts too.
Ebay used to have a facility you could register for alerts for specific items based on key words but not sure if they still have it.
Have you tried Pre loved site - they have the wrong colour but you could see if they have a "wanted" ad facility?
If i think of anything else Ill let you know x

Gumtree has the pearl pear on offer currently. Certainly to look out for!
I e-mailed a certain Wedding Blog owner - she has a plethora of VW wearing brides on show. I asked her if she can give a shout out to her followers and likers on blog/Facebook. Will also e-mail another blog.

CommentAuthorLittleMissBossy
I have already put a bid in so she'll have a sell in any case - it's a win/win for her.

But that's the wrong colour :-) They were in the collection after the blue ones so there are still more around.

The new ones are always counterfeit ones, I am not saying I would never buy that but most certainly not for a price close to the original.

Munchkinpie - I have my own tactics which seem to work quite well. I rather steer clear of items which already have a bid on that's why I always put in a bid first thing - unless there is one already. And cime the last 15 seconds.... I am there :D

CommentAuthormunchkinpie
Phew I was getting worried for a while you were one of those who bid everytime someone else would bid and sometimes bump up the price unnecessarily. I personally never bid until last 10/15 seconds.
However as a seller I get so stressed when my items dont have bids lol

Not that silly :-) Though the first bid is not always a good idea. Gamble.

I adore those shoes but 1. if you're having trouble finding them then I'll never find any! 2. they're way too expensive for me to justify 3. H2B thinks they're horrible
Boooo~
Hope you manage to get some though! :D

My h2b doesn't get a say in this (actually I wanted to show him but he doesn't want to see) but they are very "me" so it wouldn't surprise him.
Do you want the same colour? There are so many of them! I also love the ivory oned with the cherries and other colourways of the heart ones - especially the grey ones with the navy heart or the royal blue ones with the peach heart. Yelliw ones with the black heart are great too!

Yeah, I want the light blue ones cause they'd fit my colour scheme perfectly!I wish there was a light blue pair with a white heart, if there was I'd be getting a pair no matter what h2b thought! lol :)

They went for just under £91 - nearly the orginal price. They are highly coveted shoes.

Have you thought about using esnipe in the future? Its a bidding that costs a little to use (but saves me vast fortunes in return) and automatically bids for you at the last 5 seconds of the auction. Its a great tool if you are likely to forget about auctions ending like me! Good luck with the shoes x

I know about it but never considered using it. Good idea though.
