Found this on the net today: http://www.artnet.com/magazine/news/mason/mason5-1-00.asp Not sure of the date but it's pretty recent as it's from 2004. I like this quote: "Just as eBay has broadened the appreciation of collectibles in general, I'm seeing a younger set with a different mentality," says Rodriquez. They like the fact that vintage fashion has value in the marketplace and four-figure price tags do not make them blanch. Just not sure if I agree with it though, I'm 28 and 4 figure price tags certainly make me blanch, ebay or no ebay! :P Lei
Well, that isn't exactly a journalistic approach. They have quoted only the one seller who is, of course, going to talk her own store and the biz up to promote herself.
Like every young woman is Carrie Bradshaw & her crew....yeah, right. I know more young women struggling to pay their rent than can afford a 4-figure anything. Brenda
