Vintage re-selling

I have mixed feelings about vintage re-selling. In one sense, it is something I do myself, scouring flea markets and thrift stores for good finds to sell on my Etsy site.

But then, you get people who buy stuff from your Etsy, complain about shipping price, and then turn around and sell it for more on Ebay?

I am always so happy when I make a vintage sale because I expect it to go to someone that is gong to love and cherish that item. It kind of makes my heart sink to see this happen.

My original item:



It's new ebay listing:



How does everyone else feel about this?

Current Style Inspiration: Fried Green Tomatoes






Totally into that hole rural down south 30's floral summer dress look right now. I know this movie was totally cheeseball chick flick (though they TOTALLY downplayed the lesbian angle, which was very forthright in the book), but stylistically it was total eye candy.
