My granddaughter saw some, with more or less the same description you gave, for $250, on sale. People who pay that have too much money and not enough sense to spend wisely. Just think of the good they could do with that "excess" money.
Even if I had the money to spend, there is NO way I would spend it on clothing that overpriced.

I don't do that because of years of living close to the bone (almost broke). Right now I wouldn't do it because I'm losing weight & changing sizes just quick enough.

Ok so the old jeans I have that are worn out, with holes in various places and a patch over the hole in the rear end would be worth at least $100 because they are originals. Right???? LOL
I can always put my name on them..... :roll:

I was a single mom for 10 years. I know what its like to be so broke, I wasnt sure how I was going to get grocerys. I have always gone to thrift shops, and looked for the best deals on things. Now that my kids are older, and things arnt as tight, I still go to the thrift stores! I have never paid more than $8 for a pair of jeans & never will! If I won the lotto, I still wouldnt pay $179 for a pair of jeans!
