Scarves Ode to Parures de Samouraïs

I am on the wait list for CW 05. Would it be bad to have the 90 in 05 and the CSGM?

Also, has anyone noticed that some savvy seller on eBay has sold 05 for $1,569! Oh my goodness...I am going to wait and save myself a couple hundred bucks.

I'm not that seller but if the shawl was purchased in the US, there is not much meat left after all the ebay and Paypal fees and sales tax. It may sound like a lot for the purchaser but probably not so much for the effort of sourcing it.

Hi all...for reference, here another shot of CSGM cw 5. As @litchi noted, it is a true blue. I have @TankerToad’s cw enroute so will have some decisions to make

This is a beautiful colorway and my favorite !!

According to my SA colorway 05 is the most asked for and the hardest to find, but I still wouldn't pay premium.

Me neither! My neck is patient.

S/he probably made approximately $380-400 after eBay & Paypal fees, which is quite a lot IMHO and enough to cover the cost of a 90cm scarf. Ha! Feed the addiction....

Hoping these babies will fly into the U.S. shelves soon! We've only been anticipating this CSGM for the last six (?) months or so?

FYI - as of this afternoon, Madison had cw 1, 6 & 7 of the CSGM and may have received others. They were putting out new scarves/shawls as I was leaving.

Did you try them on ?

BBC, there is a chance it will be too warm a coloration and not pop on me, but I'm getting a little old for pop. LOL

What's amazing is that all three of you have completely different coloring!

And you are ALL awesome ladies! [emoji8][emoji173]️[emoji254]

I thought ebay and Paypal fees are 13% total of sales price. And the retail in the US is $1.1K before adding sales tax.

Really loving colorway 05. My SA is getting one transferred so I'll post it for reference once I get it. I know that it won't be as 3D as the silk one but nevertheless still a great design.

Agree...eBay breakeven for a CSGM bought in NY is around $1400.
