Then check out the cost of this vintage 2 yard piece on Ebay!
http://cgi.ebay.com/30s-Vintage-Nove...item4151f111ba I love vintage fabrics but would never pay this much for 2 yards!!!! I will just keep my fabric until it becomes vintage and then have my own vintage stash to choose from. LOL!! :mrgreen: |
Think it will be there for awhile!!!
|
If someone pays that much for it, they have too much money to spend on fabric, is what I would say.
|
I just put an offer on it for 10.00 and it wasn't rejected. So, we'll see.
|
It's ugly to me. I'll pass.
|
Sherri B, I like your logic!!! :D:D
I love vintage but not that one, even for 10 bucks :D |

I don't think I'd ever spend that much money with a seller whose feedback % is so poor. Anything lower than 99.6% sets off red flags with me.
But, maybe your offer will be accepted, then you aren't risking much. :) |
I can't imagine paying that for something that is screaming "buy me I am so exactly what you're looking for!"-- and I would have to say this is definitely not even whispering to me, thank goodness!

People on ebay pay crazy prices...I once put some M&Mfabric on there - one yard - starting price was 99cents....and it sold for $60!
I was absolutely shocked that someone wanted it so bad and they paid me that much for it...I would have been happy with $10 or so at that time...it was back in the late 90s. |
haha wow, I about fell out of my chair
|
Answer me this Batman...How can it be brand new if it is vintage???
|
Wow! I'd sell some of my fabric for half that if I thought there were that many crazy buyers. Hmm...if the M&M fabric went that high...

Maybe they meant to list it for $1.00 and hit the zero button a few times too many. :>
|
Oh my gosh! That's crazy! I wonder if it has gold in it?

I would have to see some provenance before I even thought of paying that kind of money for a piece of fabric.

Not only is it only 36" wide (which many old fabrics were), it is not even 2 yards.....even with the hemmed edge, it's only 69"!!!
|
Yep, and he wants $6 for shipping, too.
|
Heck I might would pay ten dollars for it but not much more It will probably fall apart when washed
|
They're out of their cotton-picking mind!
|
I don`t think it`s a mistake...go take a look at their other vintage fabrics for sale!!!

I wrote and asked for proof of its age! I am going to go through my fabric dating books in the morning..but I am pretty sure this is NOT from the 30's |
And the seller even stated that it has sone yellowing! DUH
I also think it looks more like 50's and 60's. |
Jacquie, you beat me to it. Not 30s. Maybe 50s, or even early 60s.
I would bet my last fat quarter on it. LOL |
Wow, they sure know what they want for it.
|
I looked at all of there items those prices are just insane!! But there are people paying it. wow
|
It actually reminds me of some kitchen wallpaper my mother put up in the 70's....I'm in Australia and even to us that price is hugely inflated...
|
Yuk....that is very ugly fabric. I would not even want it if it was free.
|
That is sooooo funny!! Some people!! They must think it's gold....
:thumbup: :thumbup: |
That is a bit ridiculous....... but there are some obsessive buyers out there!
|
Woa or however it is that you spell that. I can see paying $10 a yard depending on the quality of fabric but if you can get it cheaper go for it but that is just way too much.
|
They are taking the proverbial, or it's a mistype NOONE not even me, being a complete fabric addict would ever think of paying anywhere near that price, not even for a pretty fabric which that is NOT :shock:
