Someone who knows the internet better than I do can link to the OG post but
I recently sold a bunch of my Hermès bags to someone I used to know by professional association, I got like 70K cash for maybe 8 bags, possibly 9. I had to take an uber to the bank to deposit everything. blah blah it's a long thread But I was just making a text joke with her about my hoarder house and she sent me back some video about how lucky she was to have a husband who indulged her ... and she said "girlfriend we have 3 storage rooms full of stuff" And she sent me the video saying, "this is just one room" Whaaat lol. It's like Celine Dion's storage unit. 100s of coats on racks by color, lots of orange Hermes boxes just thrown on piles helter skelter, like not even stacked neatly, like just thrown into corners. Bikes. Chanel boxes. Whaaaaatttt They are in their 60s like I am how do now I feel like the sane one somehow |

She even said I just found 5 pair of riding boots I forgot I had! And I'm like ... do you even ride horses No I don't think they do because I would have heard about that long ago, some of her budget would have gone to riding horses and I never EVER heard about that and she would have been riding horses before our daughter and they would have been talking about horses and my ex would have talking to her about horses. How strange this all is to me Damn. I don't think I will ever get how people need storage units at all in this type of situation. I don't think I will get over seeing those orange boxes just thrown into corners. Like Holy s*** even I kept them stacked neatly and labeled in a closet locked with a key. And I remember her saying, "oh wow I'm so glad you labeled them!" Like how do you not label things in boxes that aren't transparent it's a 10 dollar label maker are you going to empty every box to find out what's in there My mind is still blowing up about lots of things, I apologize |
| Ok? You got a bad price for your bags. |
There’s a big pile of unused horses out back |
| Well, lots of hoarders out there, and some of them can afford designer stuff. |
This. Plus nothing surprises me w how others choose to spend their money. |

Why do you assume this is your personal chat room, OP? Why you write in this very casual, conversational style?
It takes all kinds, but you're about as far away from me as is possible and still belong to the same species. |
It's OK, several of them were from the olden days like 4K (remember Samantha in SATC? Those days.) And I had that bag at 4k. Those were the prices at the time. I think she wanted that one to carry her little dogs in. It was a 40 rouge H clemence. I did give it to her for 4K. I came out OK. My luck was having an actual buyer whom I knew who was not a scammer. That money went into my bank account. I didn't lose it through the internet. I drove to the bank the next day for that reason. But, I'm kind of disappointed to realize that I was mistaken about my not carrying bags being a waste and that she was going to love them somehow. Or use them. Because in my own way, I loved them. I kept them strictly safe in a closet at least, and locked them up and labeled them. No one was allowed in that room. And now I find out she's apparently got at least 100 more in a storage unit that she never looks at except to video it. I'm not sure I'll ever get over the 100 coats on racks or the orange and black chanel boxes being tumbled into corners. That's insane. Like they were just thrown in there. I'm not even sure why she showed it to me at all |
Because it seems like an open forum IDK I like it I don't need to be near to you. You don't need to be near to me. This is a beauty and fashion forum. Handbags are fashion I'm not a cat or a dog, we are both humans, we are the same species. What species do you think you are and what posts do you make? I'm unfamiliar with your work |
"Why do you write in this very casual, conversational style?" That's such a special question I think I thank you ? because it sort of seems like a compliment ? I guess the obvious follow up question is, what style should one adopt to appropriately post to the internet Because you seem kind of angry and resentful and we've never met and you don't know anything about me |
| I think you need friends IRL OP |

OMG it's you again.
Just so you know, it's hard to respect someone who is so entirely superficial and obsessed with appearance and material goods. Try and do better. You might not care about how you come across to strangers on the internet, but it's hard to imagine you have any more intellectual depth or social poise in real life. I don't think you can pretend that this vapid Nouveau Riche persona has worked for you so far, from what we can gather from your life. |
