Almost 2,000 Marimekko for Target Items on eBay...

While many news outlets (like Fortune Magazine) are reporting that the Marimekko for Target collab was NOT a sellout, almost 2,000 items from the collection are already listed for resale on eBay. Interestingly enough, a lot of the items on eBay aren't priced too inflated. Case in point: the blue Marimekko kaftan shown here has a Target price of $34.99, but the average price on eBay is around $50. I wonder if the eBay vultures realize that this collab doesn't have the same allure as Lilly Pulitzer.

This colab clothing has quite a weird sizing; I am a plus size and since some of the previous collections ran small, I bought caftan in 2X online. But later at the store I got a chance to try that same caftan in X/XL - and it was roomy. So, I guess, I will be returning that 2X. But I can see some people deciding to make a prodit on eBay.
