| To buy or not to buy?????!!!! Okay, so I found this deal that has 22 articles that are XS-S for $170 including shipping!! The clothes are HIGH quality, the owner's dogs use to model. My bf says NO and that I'm insane! I am a college student...so I don't make that much...but I REALLY want it!!! Give me your opinion, to buy or not to buy???

| I could think of a lot of things to spend that kind of money on. Do you really want that much clothes for your dog? |

On a serious note....if it isn't going to cause financial strain or you have to cut back on care for yourself or your pups.....go for it.

| Isn't that cheap? I see so many clothes that's over $10. She said for one, the original price was $90 and her dog only worn it once. Well, that's why I am here for other yorkie owners opinions. I really want it, so I can't think rationally

| I always have to ask myself if I can afford it. If I can, and it is something I feel is worth it, then go for it. BUT, if a purchase will make it hard for me to pay for neccessities, then I usually pass. I tend to overthink everything, but I hope I helped. |

Just remember, I came up with the idea so I deserve a discount if you do end up selling some of it.

If you can afford the initial expenditure... you could probably make back almost all of it and still get to keep some nice pieces for yourself. But only you know whether you can afford it or not!

| I'm a shopaholic galore. It's bad. When I think about how much money I spend on stuff I never hardly wear - it really is sickening. Everyone says I'm crazy. I have major high end designer stuff still hanging in my closet with price tags on them! I actually started putting a ton of stuff on E-bay! I'm getting better - still need intervention though I think. Take other people's advice. If you can't afford it then don't buy. There's so much better things to spend your money on as a college student, even though this sounds tempting, which I have to admit! Haha. Simple as that and definitely think about if you'll get good use out of the clothes. I have to say the $7.75/per piece of clothing is a good deal!! I look at adorable puppy clothing all the time for my girl, I got her a one $150 dollar shirt (on my fiance's credit card - heck he's a pro athlete - he can afford it) and I couldn't resist because I have issues, but she only wore it once and she hated it on her - tried so hard to get it off!!! She likes her little cheap sweatshirt and that's all. So if you're puppy doesn't like clothing it's a waste and they really don't need so much pieces of clothing IMO. A few cute ones if they like clothes should be good enough. I'm definitely a believer in a warm jacket though for the winter and a rain jacket for misty light rainy days. Now can you PM me that seller's name please! Haha - JK! Last edited by kate07; 04-11-2010 at 07:49 PM. |

| On a serious note though. The money might be spent better putting it aside for any unforeseen medical emergencies - in a vet fund. I see so many college kids that can't afford medical emergencies that arise and that may happen with their puppy. I think if you are questioning the costs then you should pass on the clothes! |
