Holiday Bargain Hunting
November 16, 2009 by Katie
Multi-national corporation ebay and even some of their beleaguered sellers will have a great holiday season, for ebay buyers… not so much, more and more I see prices going well above retail. It’s in ebay’s best interest that you pay retail or more -the more the item sells for the more commission they make, so to say the least research, research, research! A lot of the lingerie and boudoir items sold on ebay can be found via the internet for less (i.e. Jimmyjane massage oil candles are close to full price on ebay but at the Jimmyjane website they’re more than 50% off). Best places to look:
Well Knickers Bargains of course. We scour the web for the best deals on designer lingerie from all over the world, as well as exclusive discount for our readers. In the past couple of months we’ve posted sales including savings as high as 85% off Sexy Panties & Naughty Knickers, 70% off Made by Niki, 70% at Glamorous Amorous and more.
If you do plan on shopping ebay use search engines like Fat Fingers to uncover hidden treasures due to misspellings. It’s a brilliant site and their slogan is “Other peoples typos can save you money” says it all. Spend some time researching other sites. It’s as simple as Googling product name or checking places like Amazon.com (both Lauren Silva and Gigi’s Closet have stock listed there). There’s Froogle searchable and browsable shopping index tuned to finding products on sale online. And of course feel free to ask us! If there’s something in particular you are looking for drop us a line and we’ll be happy to help! There’s also places like RetailmeNot, Bing and ebates for coupon code offering free shipping and rebates on your online purchases. Happy Bargain Shopping!










Can I mention Gilt and Rue La La as places to score an occasional lingerie deal as well? Rue La La has had more lingerie sales recently than Gilt, but they both have massive bargains when they do sell intimates and hosiery.
Thanks! I know Gilt has Kiki de Montparnasse on sale for 70% every once and a while and it’s fabulous.
