Ebay bargain buys!

Hey everyone!

Hows your week been? This week my post is all about bargain buys which i must admit is a passion of mine. You cant beat that feeling when shopping and you find that one item that you love for a bargain price. You feel so happy with yourself for spotting it and you walk out of the shop mega chuffed and excited to show someone. Its so much more satisfying than walking out with full price items and a damaged bank balance!

So where else to grab these bargain buys but of course, ebay! I used to buy and sell on ebay all the time a few years back, but i found it becoming saturated with products. This meant even longer trawling through searches to find the gem, and then having to wait to try and outbid others. It can become very addictive and you find yourself bidding higher than planned just to win the item, turning out not to be such the bargain buy you expected! Also i would buy things that looked great in the picture but not so great in real life. So after a while i seemed to have just stopped buying fashion online altogether. I still occasionally bought bits and pieces i knew would be no different like CD's and DVDs but i seemed to have restricted my bargain hunting to rummaging through the sale racks which can be just as time consuming as searching ebay.

Well that's until now! Just recently from reading another blog i saw a pair of gorgeous shorts that they bought off ebay from an Asian company. Searching more into it i found loads of these companies selling a high quantity of products worldwide for a fraction of the price you would find them in your typical high street stores. So i did some 'research' and before i knew it my basket wishlist was 3 pages long, whoops. I have been good, as so far i have only purchased 1 item, soon to be 2 or 3 or possibily 4, and then I'm waiting until i go home to buy a few more pieces. 

Here are a selection of things that i came across and so badly want in my life, all of which include p&p! What do you think, anything you have got your eye on??
