I've been quite successful at selling off lots of wedding goodies now that I'm done with them. But I still have my dress. I listed it on 5 different used dress sites. I got my first bite today!
I was excited by the prospect of making a bit back on such a large purchase. The woman that expressed interest seemed ready to pull the trigger. But the more emails we exchanged, the more fishy it smelled.
Here are the suspicious details, in the order they unfolded;
*Bad grammar. No capitalization or periods.
*Buying the dress for her sister, not herself
*Didn't request any specific measurements
*Not available to see the dress, because she is an oceanographer currently at sea.
*Says her "pick up agent" will get the dress after I receive payment via paypal
*AAAAnnd the final nail in the coffin; Her pick up agent only accepts Western Union which she can't send via the boat she's on. Could I wire the money for her?
Yeah, say hello to your cousin, the African Prince for me!
