    may we presume you are trolling? Or are you being held hostage by Ukrainian franken-meisters and we should send help?

    If she posted the eBay listing upside down it would have been a call for help.

    What "he"? LouS was referring to a damzell in distress! Here's my fave Omega military watch when I'm not wearing Ukrainian Longines!

    I do appreciate the craptastic Raketa bezel, or whatever godforsaken Soviet brand it's from

    love your nail polish!

    The seller has, at least, provided a transparent description. While there is no apparent intent to deceive,
    the unintentional result is similar in efficacy to a wonderous syrup of ipecac. ::puke::

    You sure know your nail polish colors....






    I actually speak from experience, my first "job" out of college (right after Bear tanked, so $ ='d $ then) was to "viral market" a beauty product, and that meant learning about everything "beauty bloggers" were enthusiastic about.

    For about a year I could competently argue about the merits of MAC / Sephora's (et al.) product lineups... I got some really weird looks every now & then!

    Pretty close.... you do know your stuff but this one doesn't shimmer.
    So be it, back by popular demand, Omega and OPI Road House Blues in morning light:
