So is Blakely Smith, who recently forked over $2400 for a Monique Lhullier wedding gown on eBay and didn't get anything in the mail for the longest time . . .
After Smith had paid her money and received nothing back
. . . she e-mailed "Kate," the supposed seller, told of a coworker's eBay horror story, and outlined why she was growing suspicious. "I am sorry to be this way, but in today's world, it is not totally off base to be wary," she said.To which "Kate" replied:
"That's true, indeed. I just scammed you, sorry for that, it's nothing personal. ... It's what I do, and it pays well."

Dang you, Gail. If you wasn't so uppity you'da made yer dress. They got them patterns and some nice fabrik over to the Walmart.
Ain't no exquisite uppity sash that that ebay girl couldn'tve found at Walmart either. And you can get groceries at the same time. So they might bag your wedding dress material with some dog food. So what?

No, I'm not looking for an honest woman. I'm looking for a woman who will laugh at my crappy jokes, and tell me how handsome I am, and how great I am in the sack. Oh, wait.....20 years in November!!
