Birdy on a budget: Top 10 Ebay auctions

I’ve rediscovered the bargainous joys of Ebay recently, prompted by my friend C’s winning bid of 40 quid on a stunning Balenciaga blazer. I guess one of the reasons Ebay is so good right now is because everyone is flogging the contents of their wardrobes in a bid to make some cold hard cash. Good news for those looking to make one those fabled ‘investment’ purchases, be it a new winter coat or a new pair of designer ballet flats – all going for high street prices.

I’ve been watching some auctions over the past few weeks, and have been astounded by some of the winning bids, like the Miu Miu three-tone ballet flats for £18.01, See by Chloe dress for £41, Marni dark grey trousers for £31, Marni dress coat for £62, A.P.C dress for £51, and Alaia black sandals for US$54.

With that in mind, here’s my round-up of the best Ebay auctions right now. Be quick – some of them are ending soon.

Balenciaga blazer, UK size 12, current bid £49.

Isabel Marant shoes, size 37, current bid £16.87.

Vanessa Bruno black coat, UK size 14, current bid £70.
