Below are some lovely items I've seen cruising on ebay. I'm not going to bid on them, but maybe they'll delight *you!*
I personally never mind if something is used so long as it is in nice condition, so I put some here, but if that skeeves you, check the "pre-owned" tag and the description. Also always check measurements if you're not familiar with the designer, it helps a lot for fit.
Also, I'm going by *my* size and tastes for this one, but I take requests if you want to see another hit list.

Gorgeous leather coat. If this is anything like the other Helmut Lang ones I own, the leather is a soft, supple dream and the lining in the coat and pockets is a delight in itself.

Surprised no one has swooped in to BIN (Buy It Now) - nice item from a designer known for knits, in great shape, and very cute!

I love a lot of Sienna Miller's designs for Twenty8Twelve. This isn't right for me, but a nice price for sure!

J Crew did their last designer collaboration with Nili Lotan, and this coat shows one reason why. So pretty! So classic! Yet in an unexpected and happy shade of blue!

For sweet things, Beth Bowley often hits the target. A cute skirt but with a little edge. Other sizes in this skirt also up from other sellers, some for less.

James Perse, the go-to for cool MOTG and RATE. Wear it, spill on it, wash it, it's all cotton jersey and french terry - keeps its shape and still looks great!

There's something witty and old-fashioned about this Tocca jacket.

The perfect black cashmere cardigan. It retailed for around $300, so grab it here for less, wash it, lay it to dry, use a sweater piller if you must, and no one will know. Ever.

Whoa, cool cashmere for $20 with shipping! Cute! (See instructions above.) BBQ!

Oh if it only *ever got cold here* this would be mine! 100% cashmere jacket, perfect for tailoring, and probably soft as a baby's tush. Sigh. It's still 90+ degrees in Austin.

I'm a sucker for Christopher Kon's purses. They never look like anyone else's. There's also a similar model up in green.

Jil Sander! Check out those prices! Pre-worn, but only a fool would mistreat an item that costs that much new!

Orla Kiely just makes me happy. This bag will be bid up high, but you can see why, right?
Alrighty, that's the first hit list... hope you enjoyed. Let me know if you want more?
