Sometimes I can fall out with ebay big time..... you know the sellers who describe something as 'immaculate' and it arrives 'minging' while other times I just LOVE ebay
Most of the time its a great way of buying an item you wouldn't normally come across or finding an item at a bargain price. Anyhow this weekend I spotted a pine dresser on ebay local to me and still at the starting bid of 99p.
I put a small bid on it and promptly forgot all about it only to get an email saying that I'd won it for ..... wait for it..... £11.50! We went to pick it up on Sunday.
The dresser got a good rub down and oiled before being installed in my parlour. I do intend to paint it at a later date, possibly an off white; for now its being used to store all my books on and in.
Nice bargain for £11.50?Anybody else got a good bargain this week?

Oh Shaz that is a real bargain honey, i have never bought anything off ebay, but love seeing when others get great stuff, well done honey. Mwah XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
That is a good bargain. I quite often trawl through Ebay and have got some good bits, although I'm very impatient and hate to have to wait until the auction's ended!
I adore it Sharie, I think you know how jealous I am.
It looks lovely in situ. :)
£11.50? Man, that beats my bargains this week. I have listed my booty finds for sunday on my blog, and hope the list grows longer next Monday... I just can't stay away from them! x
Bargain! It looks perfect in its new 'home' X
I love a good bargain and it will look great in white.
Thanks for replying to my question about Melmel. I hope she comes back on too.
I know what you mean about ebay...definitely a love/hate thing but all worthwhile when you bag a great bargain like that!
I agree with you about painting it too...it'll look fab
