Do you have anymore Betsey punk label? Xx
sydarm
@alyssascap I have a skirt with this same pattern but it is flannel, so the colors don’t match. A black and white gingham stretch midi dress, a white peplum with roses dress that laces up, a gown with a velvet bustier and and an Alley Cat. I’m deciding whether or not to keep a couple of them. It’s hard to let them go because then they’re gone 😪
sydarm
But no cherries or any of those
alyssascap
@sydarm wow sounds like an amazing collection. I totally understand you not wanting to part with them. If on the off chance you ever do I wouldn’t mind a heads up before u post ;) punk label goes in seconds. Have a great night!
sydarm
@alyssascap sure, I’ll let you know. The gingham dress doesn’t fit, so there’s that lol.

@sydarm Im honestly interested in all, I been hunting for a good piece to start off my punk label collection. There is a stunning white with roses drop waist dress on here but its going for 1000, and I simply cannot afford that lol. Unfortunately the top version of it just sold on here for $60! Kicked myself when I saw the sold button
sydarm
@alyssascap yeah some people ask crazy money for stuff. But it usually ends up sitting there a while. I watched a piece on another platform because I had the same one. She was asking 500. Then she kept sending me lower snd lower offers. It had been sitting there a long time. I guess it depends, whatever. I sold some stuff to someone who has a vintage store. She’ll get more for it. I just have to be careful to not price too low, and that goes for everything, not just Betsey.
alyssascap
@sydarm yes, there is definitely a happy/medium price. Based off what you told me if I were you I would keep the Alley cat or pass it off to a family member. Something like that would get bought off here and flipped for so much higher. You never know if people are buying things for personal use, and I respect the people who sift through these apps all day for a profit, but at some point its tiring :(
sydarm
@alyssascap yes. The Alley Cat is tough because I’ve seen it for 1000- 1700. I bought it in 2007 for $25! I’m not sure if I would sell it in one of these platforms. It’s hard to say. There’s a Real Real near me. I think if taking a few things there (one if them is a Callaghan piece, which I knew nothing about, just felt like it must be something because of the quality) but they take a huge cut.
alyssascap
@sydarm yes I was just about to say I would not trust TRR with that. I have heard horror stories with them losing things. And you are right, they do take a huge cut. Honestly holding on to it wouldn’t hurt, the value is only gonna go up from here. Its a tough call!
sydarm
@alyssascap exactly. I hear that they screw up a lot of authentications too. Like the Callaghan piece I have…can’t find another one like it. It could be a Versace design, most of the stuff that’s around is the Gigli stuff. It’s not like they have access to secret knowledge. I could see them knowing if a Gucci is fake or so, but beyond that, not so much. Oh well. A bit off topic lol.
sydarm
I’m going to sleep now. I will make sure we connect before I list anything.
sydarm
What is your schedule like tomorrow?
sydarm
@alyssascap I looked for that dress but didn’t see it. Did the top you’re talking about have lace around the bottom, was it sold by feralfaerie?
alyssascap
@sydarm yes!
sydarm
@alyssascap okay so that’s the dress I have. It has the ruffle drop waist/peplum or whatever you call it. No lace. The skirt part is straight and midi.
alyssascap
@sydarm oh wow, what size is it?
sydarm
@alyssascap this is kind of an odd Betsey size to me, because it’s like todays sizes. It says M 8-10. It fits me. I am 34f . The pit to pit is 16” but it stretches comfortably, like a t shirt
sydarm
The waist is 13 1/2 flat
sydarm
But it stretches. I do not have a 27” waist lol
alyssascap
@sydarm oh perfect! How much were u looking for it?
sydarm
@alyssascap that’s the tough part lol.
sydarm
Do you remember who had the dress, or what the listing was called? That way we can see if it’s the same dress. And Then just want to see if I can get a slight discoloration out (it’s on the ribbon where the eyelets are for the laces) so we’re cool with that.
alyssascap
@sydarm if you type in Betsey Johnson 1982 prarie dress it should come up
sydarm
@alyssascap ok
sydarm
Ok I saw it. Nothing like mine tho.
sydarm
I had a couple of her maxis years ago. Wore them to shreds lol.
alyssascap
@sydarm same print tho?
sydarm
So, I’ll see what happens with the discoloration on this dress. I hesitate to use a bleach pen (it won’t hurt it, I’ve done it before with this dress) because then I have to rinse it off, and our water here is hard so it will leave a residue which defeats the purpose. I’ll let you know before I put it up. I guess it’s best to list it really high then you make an offer? That way it won’t get grabbed up.
sydarm
Also my dress is sleeveless.
alyssascap
@sydarm sounds good! Thank you for thinking of me!
sydarm
@alyssascap ok!
sydarm
@alyssascap going to list tonight, I’ve just been lazy.
sydarm
I’m going to list the white dress with roses in a few minutes.
