| American Girl Store Kinda Sucks To My Surprise

Well I just got back from the longest drive through nowhere I have ever taken. A brief 4-6 hours north of here is a little town called Osh Gosh and b'gosh it looks like everywhere else in America- Starbucks, then Target, then Starbucks, then TJ Maxx except for one very important landmark store. The promised land for any mommy of a little lady.
Yes, I got to go to the American Girl outlet store.
I was so excited that the tantrums and crying (lots of roadwork) on the way up didn't even bother me. I was going to my Graceland and no one was going to bring me down.
When the children and I fell out of the car covered in stale partially digested Goldfish crackers a brief 6 hours and 3 poopy diapers later. I was a little weirded out. Here is a massive company bajillions in sales, and it is the size of Baby Gap. Ugh. Once inside I was disappointed to find that they do not carry dolls AT ALL - not a one. They do carry all of the critters like Coconut, Licorice and all the AG pets as well as the pet accessories. Other than that all they have is clothes, and some of the doll clothes.
While the clothes are cute, they are infinitely cuter in the catalog on Kit's living look-a-like than they are hanging on a round chrome rack. What was even more disappointing was that most things were the same price as they are in the catalog,. . . (read post) |

| Selling Clothes on Ebay Sucks

The first thing I ever sold on Ebay was a lot of Baby Gap things my son was given when he was born and never wore. I thought it was great- and it is a great way to buy clothes especially high end stuff for cheap.
I think selling clothes on Ebay sucks though.
Don't get me wrong I totally do.
See what I haven't told you guys is that I have a little problem...ok so you figured but this is a different little problem.
I love baby clothes. I spend so much time looking for stuff to sell that I naturally trip over beautiful baby clothes- who can resist Hanna Andersson for $2.12 or a Baby Lulu ensem for $3.13.
I sure as hell can't so I end up with a crazy glut of designer baby duds.
They are hard to display correctly, people always say don't put them on the floor- but what else are you supposed to do?
Seamstress dummy dealies cost a lot of money and clothes look weird on a hanger on the back of a door.
There is a very smart resale suit seller who has a beautifully landscaped pool with a wrought iron fence and she hangs the used suit so you get a beautiful view of her lovely yard...and the Goodwill suit sells for triple the similar listings.
I don't have a cement pond in the back yard.
I could dress my Golden Retriever up in a Hanna Andersson dress- he would be. . . (read post) |
