All things VANITY FAIR..Vanity Fair Lingerie.. A Passion! An Obsession!







Not sure what it is. Not sure why? But nothing, I mean nothing compares to Vanity Fair lingerie, and not their new stuff, I'm talking vintage of course. Vintage Vanity Fair. Such style, cut, craftsmanship goes into each and every vintage piece. I have a passion, an obsession with Vanity Fair. What is it? How can the silky, utterly delicious, creamy soft NYLON TRICOT that their gowns, slips and panties made of make me feel the way I do when I wear them? How can the lace, tulle netting chiffon, cut and style, be placed so eloquently on areas that make them appear they were created for a Princess?
I don't care if you give me a wardrobe full of Olga nightgowns or Lucie Ann/Claire Sandra gowns, I'm going straight for those Vanity Fair's. Vintage Vanity Fair lingerie is created by skilled artisans of the lingerie industry, most are masterpiece's of workmanship & designed by the hand's of geniuses and stamped with the seal of quality.

Ex Employee AVERY of eBay Speaks Out!


Occasionally I may stray from the vintage lingerie and clothing topics a bit to bring you little interesting tidbits here or there that I find interesting or newsworthy.

I have had the pleasure to "get to know" Avery. Averybay - Semi-Philosophical Musings of a Former Pink. Ex-eBay employee by his choice, not theirs. What is a Pink? An eBay Pink is basically an employee of eBay, and mostly on the Community Discussion Boards.

To sum it up short and sweet. He recently posted on eBay's Seller Central Discussion Board this post (now pulled by eBay) http://www.averybay.com/seller-central-post. Nothing he said was reportable, or broke any rules. Judge for yourself:

Hello,

Until the end of 2007, I worked for eBay. Many people knew me as
Avery@ebay.com.

It is with considerable sadness that what prompts me to post and say hello is primarily a deep sense of concern. I've watched the changes that have been made during the first half of 2008; I've watched the decline of eBay.com; and I've watched the erosion of respect by eBay for its Community.

In 2008, it would be inaccurate to say that eBay cherishes its Community. Actions always speak louder than words.

On the eve of eBay Live! 2008, I feel compelled to offer a few words to this Community that I served for 5 years with passion. I stayed for 5 years because I loved the eBay Community. I left for many reasons, but I still love this site and Community. And while I debated about saying "hello" to many of you that I miss and to many that I don't know personally, it is my love of the eBay Community that compels me to offer a few words.

There are many labels flying around about people being negative, or being "anti-eBay", or being an "eBay cheerleader". Some wish to draw lines between buyers and sellers.

Please don't.

eBay Inc. is the one who has unwisely drawn a heavily line between buyers and sellers. This is not productive. The eBay Community needs to rise above this and make itself known again. eBay is now a very large company. And as is the case with many companies that grow into a large corporate structure, it is dangerously easy to forget the basic foundation that put a company "on the map" in the first place.

I deeply lament what eBay has chosen to do in 2008, but this isn't the time or place for me to dwell on this. At the heart of my concern is the conclusion that the Community that made eBay great is not respected in the way that it once was.

For many sellers, this has been a year of hard decisions. For those who are not happy with the changes made by eBay; who see it as far more than an issue of change itself; who recognize that some very destructive things are taking place, there are a number of possible directions. Some choose to boycott. Some choose to post on discussion boards. Some have stopped selling. Some have moved on to other sites. For those who feel torn between their love of eBay and disgust with the changes, many thoughts and emotions might be involved.

In conclusion, the thought that I want to offer is this: when you are driven by passion, integrity, and conviction, it is your right to dissent, to push for change, to hope for a better place. One should never have to feel that "speaking out" in and of itself is a negative characteristic. My hope is that those who truly care about the future of this site will find ways to collectively organize, strategize, and work on a plan to help eBay realize that it is and never can be anything of significance without its Community. It's not too late for this Community to become truly relevant again.

Sincerely, aka Avery

Vintage Lingerie Lover, Collector, Seller.. A True Obsession


This obsession of mine, vintage lingerie. Why, how, and you may ask, why in the world vintage lingerie? Well let me explain. This passion of mine started when I was a little girl. When Mommy was cooking, cleaning or drinking her Pepsi's with peanuts in it (that's a whole other story), doing her ironing, watching As the World Turns, guess what I was doing? I would be in her drawers, going through all her glorious frilly chiffon nighties. Mom, you never knew I did this did you? Speaking of Mom, that's her in the lovely red and black chiffon nighty, and don't I look loverly all upclose, pale and huge forehead and all..NOT (I must have been around 3 years old), and Mom about 21 or so? Sorry Mom, giving away our ages here *big evil grin*. Check out that scary-arse clown behind me.

This obsession stuck for years. After working for over 20 years as an office manager in a dental firm, I had enough of oral fixation so I quit my "day job" to bring my chiffon fixation to others, selling off my passion, my collections, my vintage lingerie on eBay. So, folks, that is how it started.

The Original GLAMOUR GURLZ! The ONE AND ONLY...



These GURLZ are downright GLAM, and truly the ORIGINAL since 2002!
~*~
Ok, so you like vintage lingerie, yet tired of seeing it displayed on lifeless mannequins, well, then guess what? Be sure to check out eBay seller kimberlyvcb_uk who has been on eBay for nearly 9 years. Originally based here in the USA, she met the love of her life, and uprooted to Jolly Ol' England (we have something in common with our English hubbys!), and set up shop there. She still runs http://www.glamourgurlz.com/ and features gorgeous vintage lingerie and live VOLUPTUOUS models.
NOT to be confused with a SUSPENDED EX-EBAY SELLER who copied their name (or pretty close to it!) to bring attention to her stanky lingerie up for sale on eCrater..(now selling under another SWEET name, ROCK CANDY OLD RAGS or something like that. Ughhhhhhhh the nerve of some people. REMEMBER GLAMOURGURLZ.COM is the ORIGINAL.. the one and ONLY!
