That's about the size of it---I've had a few lemons. A dress that was even crappier than the picture with flimsy, faded fabric, a skirt where the color wasn't even close to what I expected (orange is definitely NOT pink), and even when you know your measurements, things that should, in theory, fit, don't always.
I've got nothing against wearing ssecondhand, but I'll stick to thrift stores, where I can try things on and there's no shipping. *And* they're thrift store prices, which means $4-5 dollars for shoes, NOT $15 for something from Payless that probably cost them $15! (Plus shipping. I was born at night, but it wasn't last night.)
