Oh, Christina. What woud Mommie Dearest say?
Everyone put on your best Faye Dunaway-as-Joan Crawford face and say it with us:

WIRE HANGERS?!

Okay. This is a wooden hanger with a really long wire. Blossomshops is selling this hanger individually as a vintage item. WTF? It's a hanger. It's a wire hanger.

Even my purse is an apple.
So. You have the iPod, the iPhone, the iLife. Still not sure everyone understands you have a Mac preference? Enter the iPurse (in no way related to Apple or Mac products).

All right. It's not computer related. But Tribblekitty is selling this wooden apple on strings as a purse. WTF?

eBay WTF of the Day: This is your purse on drugs.

This purse is like a mental breakdown.Here's a big WTF from seller Davitcio: "SELDOM SEEN 1922 BEADED BAG BOX PURSE UNUSUAL." All in caps.

Seldom seen? We're never seen anything like it! It's kind of like someone wrote down all the ideas for purses they'd ever had, then took a lot of drugs, then ate the piece of paper, then dreamt an even crazier version of this purse, and then worked day and night while listening to a strange mix of Enya and Bob Marley. No, it's not "kind of" like that. It's exactly like that.

Here are my top five questions about this eBay listing:

eBay WTF of the Day: Really, really ugly purse

Posted May 2nd 2008 12:01PM by Annie Scott
Filed under: Bags and Purses, Accessories, Cosmetics, eBay WTF of the Day

Looking at this purse may have given me a rash.
Sorry Justabear. We're afraid the purse you are selling is ugly. We don't mean to be catty, no, but it's really ugly. If "Reddish-Brown" is a selling point...it's ugly. Also...it's orange. We don't get why you can't admit that it's orange.

Orange is clearly not what's wrong with this bag. What's wrong with this bag?

eBay WTF of the Day: Toe ties

Not for your hockey skates.
This gave us a geniune WTF. Toe ties.

What are toe ties? Well, after some Google-image searching, we discovered they have something to do with hockey skates. And yet, friends, we do not recommend you bring these into the locker room with you.

eBay WTF of the Day: Army-panda-chic

Styledash has discovered a new fashion trend that is sweeping the nation (very, very slowly): Army-panda-chic.

This is an army hat. Okay. It has a red star and fifteen pins on it. Okay. The pins are mostly panda bears, and we also appear to have Hewey, Dewey, and Louie, those scrappy nephews of Scrooge McDuck. WTF?

eBay WTF of the Day: Toad bag

Ribbit.WTF? Toad bag? Don't you mean "tote bag?" This is crazy talk.

This is not a "tote" bag. No. This is a toad bag. From Australia. Like Fosters pretends to be.

Has anyone ever looked at a toad and thought "mmmm...handbag?" WTF?

eBay WTF of the Day: Busted umbrella

Filed under: Accessories, eBay WTF of the Day


Allow me to sell you what I found on the floor at Port Authority.
Seriously. It's...it's a busted umbrella. That's all it is.

The handle is supposedly the selling point. Unfortunately, the handle looks like a large chicken bone made of wood.

Know what doesn't surprise us?

eBay WTF of the Day: My hat it has three corners

Posted Apr 23rd 2008 1:00PM by Annie Scott
Filed under: Accessories, Men, eBay WTF of the Day

It would not be my hat. No, really.
My hat it has three corners
Three corners has my hat
And had it not three corners
It would not be my hat!

Remember that song from when you were little? We do. We think it was usually taught to American 3-7 year olds when talking about colonial America, which they do a lot in American schools until you turn about 7 (old enough to start asking hard questions).

But look! We found the hat! Two of them!

eBay WTF of the Day: Making a statement with your tie

Filed under: Accessories, Men, eBay WTF of the Day

kibble.
Shame on you, Nicole Miller. Look at this tie, for sale here on eBay by someone who actually named their own self "being_lovely."

A tie can say a lot about a man. All kinds of crazy analysts (and probably some sane ones) chime in when it's time to pick what color tie a political candidate should wear to a debate, for example. From our personal experience, we know that a bright blue tie makes us like you, and a bright orange tie makes us hate you. (Not really.) (Okay, sort of.) (Maybe just Annie.)

eBay WTF of the day: Genuine alligator purse with leglets

Posted Apr 18th 2008 3:00PM by Annie Scott
Filed under: Accessories, eBay WTF of the Day

My leglets, let me show you them.

We feel a little creeped out when someone is wearing the head of any animal in nearly all cases (that includes you, Bjork).

We usually see it in fur; it's like the furrier decides "what a pretty mink" and then decides to give us a little TMI.

Well, this problem is sort of like that. Behold, Db6525's "Unusual Genuine Alligator Purse."

eBay WTF of the Day: Ludicrous stirrup pants

Posted Apr 17th 2008 12:50PM by Annie Scott
Filed under: Casual wear, Sporty wear, eBay WTF of the Day

Help. . .?
These pants are totally freaking ridiculous. There, I said it.

There almost isn't more to say. We don't normally post these. We see a lot of things on eBay in this category we shall call Ludicrous.

By deeming an eBay item Ludicrous, we mean that nobody's actually going to buy it, unless they're making a costume of some kind. And really, probably not then either, because as in this case, the items tend to cost upward of the fifty cents they might be worth at a yard sale.

eBay WTF of the Day: Fendi? What's a tiger pony?

Posted Apr 16th 2008 9:18PM by Annie Scott

Cruel? Or IMAGINARY?
Look at these pretty Fendi heels seller Runwaymodels has for sale!

The item is listed as:
"FENDI AUTH NEW TIGER PONY HAIR SHOES 8.5/38.5 $640!"

This leads us immediately to the question above and below:

eBay WTF of the Day: Purse my mom made at camp

Posted Apr 11th 2008 3:22PM by Annie Scott
Filed under: Bags and Purses, Accessories, eBay WTF of the Day


I am secretly tempted to call it The Ideal Carrier for Very Small Dead Animals, but that would be too creepy, wouldn't it? Here's another purse we're gonna have to call WTF on. Why? Because it's made of popsicle sticks, people. Popsicle sticks.

There is a place where arts-and-crafts meets fashion. This purse is not that place. The flowers rest atop it like condolences on a coffin. A coffin made of popsicle sticks.

eBay WTF of the Day: Purse?

Filed under: Bags and Purses, Accessories, eBay WTF of the Day

Where's my purse? Where's my...oh here it is under my margarita.
"Vintage 1940's Straw Purse Handbag, Unusual Round Shape."

Hmm.

Something's making me uncomfortable. I feel like there's a 500 pound gorilla in the room and nobody's saying anything.

I pose this question: purse?
