Have you been to Diesel’s online store lately? What do you think of the new Fluo collection for guys - featuring bright fluorescent colors, slightly reminiscent of Hypercolor shirts from the 80’s (okay, now I am dating myself!)? Do you love this collection or hate it?

Most days, I love Ebay. I buy, I sell, its great! Nothing beats finding a pair of designer jeans at under retail prices on Ebay! It’s like - yay - score one for me! But today - I, like many Ebay Seller’s, am not happy with Ebay. I thought this topic might interest our readers even though its not directly related to denim - because most of us denim lovers do find many of our designer jeans on Ebay.
About Ebay’s new feedback changes - Neutrals count as Negatives as far as your Detailed Seller Rating goes. Sellers can no longer leave Neutrals or Negatives for buyers. Yes, you read that right. Only feedback in the last 12 months counts but all feedback comments are visible - so why did I spend years trying to maintain a good reputation on Ebay then?! There is also no more Mutual Feedback Withdrawal program and no more Dispute Resolution program with SquareTrade.
Ebay’s new feedback policy seems to be that the customer (buyer) is always right, and sellers, you are on your own - no matter that you are the one paying Ebay’s fees. There is also an interesting discussion going on over in the HonestForum about this that I’d encourage Ebay Sellers to check out and put in their 2 cents on.
I’ve written in the past about the recent fee and feedback changes that Ebay’s had in the works this year. Well the new feedback changes just went live this week, and I, for one, have been greatly affected by it. If you check out this tool, you can see your feedback before and after the new feedback changes. Many people’s ratings changed if they have been Ebay members for more than 12 months. Personally, my feedback went from a 99.4% down to a 97.4% - two entire percentage points. I am also currently a PowerSeller but because PowerSellers have to have a 98% positive rating or better, unless I get a lot of positive feedbacks fast, I am going to lose my PowerSeller status. And PowerSeller status is important because Sellers get a discount on fees when they are a PowerSeller. Oh and they just rolled that part of the program out too. So just when we all thought to ourselves, “Cool, we finally have some benefit to being a PowerSeller, we get a discount!” they take it away by making it impossible to keep our good feedback ratings in place.
And some of our favorite sellers ratings also have dropped - like JudyNJacob, who went from a 99.8% to 98.9%, and lost their PowerSeller status. And VIP Fashions, who’s been on Ebay for years, went from a 99.5% to 98.6%. And finally, DailyDenim went from 99.9% to 99.6% and as of July will lose their PowerSeller status because they only have a 4.4 in their Detailed Seller Ratings for shipping and they must have at least a 4.5.

While recently browsing over at Rock & Republic’s Online Store, I noticed lots of new arrivals. They include new jackets, handbags, skinny jeans for men, and new washes. Here are just a few. Thoughts?
And do you think they are jumping on the skinny jeans for men trend too late - or are guys still wearing skinnies much? My guy will only wear bootcuts, but I’m not sure about the rest of the men out there!

Eliza Dushku was spotted out in her Juicy Couture jeans doing some grocery shopping. I don’t see Juicy jeans that often these days, do you still like them or are they over?

Heidi Klum for Jordache is now available at both Bloomingdales and online at Jordache.com. What do you think of this brand, once hot in the 80’s - now trying to re-vamp their image by using Heidi Klum as part of their campaign. Of course, Heidi looks hot in any jeans she wears, but what about the rest of us - do we love or hate these?
