#521609 - 10/07/09 09:24 PM Advice on selling some LV's on the bistro...

Just thought I would ask for some advice/input about listing some of my Louis Vuittons for sale. Last year I listed some on the bistro and then found someone on ebay had stolen my pictures! This was so upsetting not just because they used my pictures but because whoever won their auction surely thought they were getting the real deal by my pictures and who knows what purse was actually sent to the winning bidder since it was my purses in the photos!

I was thinking I would just write up a listing, with no pictures, and have any interested parties email me for pictures? Of course people, who don't know me from here, might be skeptical. LOL of course I am not sure if I would want to sell to someone I don't know from here either.

Thanks for any ideas!

So sorry that happened to you MrsW! I think your idea to list your bags without pics is a good idea. I will certainly PM you for some pics! I know how clean you keep your bags and all \:\)

Thanks Maliasmom! LOL I remember that fun thread were we all posted about how we keep anything that can spill in a ziploc bag in our purses and that our purses never touch the floor...etc

It was wonderful to see people as particular about their purses as I am! I makes me feel more normal! ;\)

do you have an image editor? you can write across the picture something like images property of MRSW. the can deter people from using the pictures.

I don't think we have that Ames and if we do I don't know the first thing about it. I am so computer challenged, I just cropped my first picture last week and it was by accident! ;1

if you have a photobucket account, mrsW, you can use it to put a watermark of some sort on the pic. that's what i used for my marc jacobs pics.

in photobucket, it's under the edit option and add text. you can change the color and the font style.... looks really nice and hopefully prevents pic thieves from using your pics. \:\)

If you ever need help with Bistro pictures, I'd be happy to put a watermark across pictures for you. However, I'd be just as likely to just ask for pictures!

I'm excited to see what you have for sale \:\)

Bling thank you for that tip and instructions, I will give it a try!

Thank you so much Julie for your very generous offer! I know if you lived closer we would have already had you do a photo shoot of our furbabies, your pictures are beautiful!

I am so suppose to be packing as we leave on vacation tomorrow morning. So when I get back I will try Bling's great photobucket tip!

I am not sure what I am listing as of now I am thinking the follow 3, maybe more but of course I have been saying I was going to sell for a while and haven't been able to make myself part with them. LOL even if I don't use them I love them, is that crazy!

You did when you bought the horizontal lockit, but lol I was having a hard enough time parting with just one of my purses! Of course that was what, a year and 1/2 ago and I might have used it once in that time. All three of these pieces are in excellent to brand new condition, that is why I am thinking it might be time to sell, since I don't get to use them, maybe I do have too many purses/bags.

I never thought of myself as a hoarder but being how I say I am going to sell things and don't, maybe I am!
