If noone wants stuff, going to ebay..thought I MADE THINGS CLEAR!
SO...I have NEVER in my life been through more BS trying to give other women a good deal...Just had ANOTHER person get to the point of payment/shipping..and back out....because shipping was like 5 bucks..SOOOOO The items I have listed are ALL for sale..I am willing to let stuff go for CHEAP..just make an offer...remmber ladies that shipping ups or even usps, is going to be 3-7 dollars..If nothing sells in the next week, or if noone has me hold it until X time..its going somwher else where I can actually make some money on it, and not deal with all this bullcrap. Im really not trying to sound hatefull, but GEEZE LOL!

ALL WBC WOMEN...SELLERS AND BUYERS...
Let have a little courtesy***(SPELL CHECK) here...
FIRST OFF..Its like 5 am..so forgive me..but did I spell curteousy right? I have moments where I look at a word and I seriously cannot figure out if its right or not..and not complex words..like FIFTH GRADE words...lol..SO..Before reading the below...can someone help me out here?

UPDATE..It is COURTESY...DUHHHHH that looks right..HA THANK YOU DIVABRIDE! LOL

Ladies...We are all adults here..well I hope..lol.So I am not tryin to rant, and I dont think I have EVER since being on WBC..okay maybe once..but ne ways...I have seriosuly had a time and half on wbc with selling items..the only reason I list stuff on here is bc I really think there are alot of sweet women on here, and everyone can use a great deal.I could sell stuff for alot more other places..but I dont..I have had about EIGHT instances with the things I just listed and things in the past of people being like..

I want it email me..
I do..right away,
..I say Ill ship asa I recieve payment
..ask whats your city so i can get a ship rate..
..No response..
..I send email saying hey, let me know if you want the stuff if not, kindly let me know so I can try and find another bride who wants it..
...I GET TWO RESPONES...
#1...I NEVER HEAR FROM THE PERSON AGAIN! WTF???
#2...I decided to get something else...

I have seen NUMOROUS posts by other brides having crappy experiences with buying/selling with other brides/brides to be....

SO..THE MORAL IS...Ladies...if you want to buy something...before you say yay, I love it, want it,need it,will send payment,do you have paypal, WHATEVER..just really decide if its something you want AND/OR can afford..Not because its a BIG deal, but because when selllers scan their inbox full of hundreds of emails daily, to specifically see if youve respoded so the seller can send your item,and takes x tra pics, does xtra measurments does xtra ANYTHING, its not worth the sellers time if your not serious...Now if their is an item you want more info on from me or ANYONE else thats a completely different story...I think I speak for everyone and they agree???? lol..And I have had TWO instances of trying to buy things, did the email back and forth thing, and heloooo my wedding was 2 months ago, was I ever able to buy them..NO...

SO DONT SAY YOU WANT SOMETHING...IF YOU DONT..
DONT SAY YOULL SeLL SOMETHING IF YOUR GOING TO RIP SOMEONE OFF,OR JUST GO MIA!

If I offended anyone(or if anyone even reads this post lol) I apologize from the bottom of my heart..It takes alot to get me upset, and I am NOT upset, just a little frusterated, and wanted to post this as a general 'guidline' for buying/selling to/from me, and ALL OF THE WBC BRIDES AND BRIDES TO BE...

I hope everyone has a wonderfull and blessed week...happy planning/or congrats ladies!

BRAND NEW NEVER WORN LINGERE
So, I dont know how many of you knew about all the issues I had with the item I am listing...got it on clearence, the corset was to small, couldnt return bc of clearence, had FOUR people ready to buy it, and POOF NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN! AHHH..I am ready to try one last time to get rid of this HOT item so maybe another bride to be can enjoy it..thanks for looking ladies...

It is a reversible black/hot pink corset with a few rhinestones on the bust. Comes with elbow lenght black satin gloves, and a reversible black/hot pink matching satin thong.

Bought it for 25 dollars

Selling for 12 OR BEST OFFER...I JUST WANT THIS GONE LOL..

I am a size 12/14 because of a recent weight gain...and wear a 38 C (sometimes a little bigger)...
It Is TOOO small for me..it is sating with a corset back...it does NOT stretch but does have the lacing in the back...I have very large bone structuring..I am not a really big girl, but no matter how little I weigh I have big bone structure SOOO..another size 12 girl could probably wear this.The RIB cage area is were its to small...I can do exact measurements ( I did this for the girls before) more pics that I have w.e ...Shipping is hardly nothing bc its so light..so MAKE ME AN OFFER!

Wedding Blues :(
What now????IM a mrs....
FIRST THINGS FIRST..i just have to say..some may think this is cheesy or stupid..but the whole church including me were in tears, and kept saying that jeff "stole the show" when he the following..
We wrote our own vows, and jeff went first...he CRIED...i have never seen him cry like that...it was the sweetest thing ever!!!!!!

So.....we got home from the honeymoon yesterday, and the whole time we were gone, i could barely sit still, because after months of running around all day every day (i had the luxury of not working for a year) i now have NOTHING to do...so...God willing, we will have a Vow Renewal in 5 years...i know long time from now, but hey, if i start in like a year, that gives me 4 years, to have a HugE shindig which we did not have at the wedding, it was BEAUTIFULL and perfect, but only had about 100 guests...so a few ?'s for all the Mrs. and soon to be Mrs's

1.What are you doing with all your wedding stuff after its over?
2.Do u fell like okay..what now...redecorate my house?have a baby? get a new job? lol...i cant sit STILL!!!
3.do you think you will ever have a vow renewal and if so, what will you do differently from wedding (aside from the obvious things..)


I donated all the fresh flowers to a local hospice
The decorations were all a hit, especially the 14 crystal trees, and the chairpeople for Make a Wish, in Tn, and also Judges for the Miss America program, are 2 of my dearest freinds, and i was going to sell everything, but they have asked me do to all the decorastions for the make a wish gala in september, the few things i will buy, i will get on sale, then list fair market value for the cost and use them for a tax deduction...ex (4 large centerpiece vases, 100 dollars each, on sale for 9 dollars each...so i paid 36, will be listing them as 400 dollars...
) since i dont buy ne thing unless its on sale, that will be great for mnake a wish and for me...I also will be loaning out and doing decor for miss america this coming year...for various events locally...

So all my hard work paid, because i donated flowers to sick people, got a job doing decor for make a wish, i will get a tax ride off, and after a certain business owner for a laser skin care center saw my hard work, i was offered a full time job at the office...So no only am i a happikly married woman, i got several opportunities just from saving money and DIY projects..
