Weekly eBay Grails 4/17
100 hours logged on eBay since quarantine began. I am not sure if, technically speaking, that is accurate because I would rather die than check my screen time. However, presumably reaching that milestone has caused me to stop and reflect. Mere minutes into this reflection I found myself compulsively opening the eBay app and frantically typing "psychedelic watches" into the search bar. After finding no result— a search too niche even for a website selling used socks— I realized that it might be time to rest on my laurels and call it quits on the eBay blog. The Chucky franchise has proven that seven installments is the perfect number, why stray from a proven formula?
Tried though I might to argue this case, the JTTB Boys refused to listen. They insisted that I must hold my place as woman of the people. I must, they argued, continue my quest to become the James Patterson of eBay blogs. Apparently, the $0 they are gaining from this is too much to lose.
Despite the obvious money grab, I did begin to recall movie franchises that have lasted more than seven movies. The Halloween series is still going strong and I'm sure there are others. So, the blog continues for now, at least until Miramax stops pumping out Halloween movies.
Niche merch is the best merch.
The fine folks at Levi Strauss are here to remind you that quality never goes out of style and God dammit they are correct.
This cardigan is the Rorschach test of sweaters.
These pants walked into a small-town dive bar and made every girl weak in the knees.
Some people’s military fetish manifests in the purchase of guns; mine manifests in the purchase of crewneck sweatshirts.
These are Levi’s “Gentleman Jeans” and they are the exact pants I would expect a self-proclaimed “gentleman” to galavant about in.
Your local farmer could never.
I HATE Disney shit. Is it because my parents never loved me enough to take to a Disney park? Maybe. But this sweatshirt is strong enough to overcome that lingering trauma.
If Jimi Hendrix did a concert on Mars, this would be the merch.
If you wear this shirt you become a lollapalooza.
These Dries pants are just begging to be worn with a threadbare sweater.
“Oh your time is money? Well my time is custom..ahah. Swag.”
The adult version of the above.
These glasses were stolen off the Once Upon a Time in Hollywood set.
There’s nothing I love more than enabling hypebeasts to make poor financial decisions.
