Then check out the cost of this vintage 2 yard piece on Ebay!

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:

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.

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.
