I’ve read other bloggers refer to posting the content of spam emails as a tired, cop-out of sorts. And while I have found the odd priceless missive of spam love, I tend to agree. I hope the following will be the blogosphere embraced exception to the rule as it isn’t technically spam, though it is reposting someone else’s words.

You see I am still trying to find maternity clothing. I have taken some of your advice, sweet readers-of-mine, and I’ve ordered from Old Navy, while my mom swooped in and called me, credit card in hand and Gap Maternity online in front of her and made a purchase. I have also been dipping my toe in the Ebay waters morass. I find that I loathe the competition, as I suffer the thrift store sticker shock, for example:

This pair of EUC Gap size 8 Long Flare Leg jeans open at $5 and carry a S&H charge of $9.99, bidding ends in 7 days.

I gasp at the shipping and handling, shake my head at the 7 days of bidding and move on.

This pair of NWOT Gap size 8 Straight Leg jeans start at $1 and carry a S&H of $6, bidding ends in 2 days 1 hour

This I approve of, and enter a maximum bid of $11.22.

I get a confirmation email.

An hour later, with 2 days of bidding left, I am outbid. I glare at the screen.

The current winning bid is $11.50.

Bitch.

I angrily punch in $16.75.

I get an email confirming my bid.

Before bed I check my email.

You have been outbid, the current winning bid is $17.01. Try bidding again!

That would be $23.01, I think sputtering. Now mind you that is still far less than anything I could find in a store, but I am offended, like pat my chest feverishly offended. It’s just exhausting, and I would totally give up were it not for listings like this:
