Every day, for the last few weeks, I have been google searching the heck out of the world wide web in search of the Current/Elliott Moonbeams and its orange and white counterpart.
Nordstrom's? Nope.
Shopbop? Nope.
Revolve? Nope.
Saks? Nope.
Ebay? Nope.
All my usual haunts were either completely sold out or not available in my size. Sure, I really, really, really wanted them. But it was different now. The more rare and unattainable they seemed, the more I HAD to have them.
I was on a mission. An assassin hiding in the shadows stalking its kill. Waiting for the right time to make a move. Then, BAM! I would finish him off. Job complete.
No dollar amount too great. No (online) store too far. I will get those jeans!
Call me La Femme Nikita. I was finally able to find some UK sites that had my size. However, after hours of scrolling through pictures, registering for the site, and deep contemplation I eventually wimped out and closed the window before I could check out.
Mission incomplete.
Nevertheless, "I always get my man."
jeansmalls.net *
Or so I thought.
Jeansmalls? What a rookie mistake. Tsk...tsk. The fobby name should've been a dead giveaway. Not to mention the reduced price.
So, I checked out and the screen says, "VALIDATION ERROR." I pressed the back button and submitted my order again. Screen said the same thing. I emailed them, which is fruitless of course.
Last week, I received a $307 charge from JIAJIA FIRM SUZHOU CN. Then today I received a small rectangular package--about the size of a wallet--from China containing Gucci sunglasses.
Geez, at least send me the correct, FAKE item.
*I was trying to do a screenshot of the site, but Blogger won't let me publish with the screenshot.
