Thousands Of Kate Moss TopShop Items On eBay


Thousands of Kate Moss TopShop items have been put up for sale on internet auction site eBay, though only a few were attracting bids today.While some online punters seem to be willing to fork out up to four times retail prices, other items are failing to attract any bids at all.Reports today suggested the clothes were not meeting sales expectations at TopShop's flagship store on Oxford Street in central London.And though some dresses were attracting bids of £200 or more, there were scores of items failing to prompt any activity.That may be down to the fact that many sellers are vastly over-pricing the items in the hope of raking in hefty returns.A few canny sellers were being successful, with one advert for the special edition red dress the supermodel wore herself when posing in the store's display window on Monday night has received one bid of a whopping £250.Another one shoulder lemon number had already drawn 10 bids, topped by one at £200.Dresses were still proving to be the most popular items, among both bidders and sellers.Handbags, shoes and sunglasses were also sparking interest amongst bidders, with one pair of pointed shoes on sale for £140, though they had not prompted any bids.The popular pansy print dress, on sale in TopShop for £45, was the most popular item for sellers, with dozens pricing it at more than £100.A simple eBay search of the words Kate Moss and TopShop brought up more than 3,500 items
