[lace] Lace Ebay seller
Hello everyone. I have been reading about the Biggens patterns on e`bay. The lady in question Chris Greg would be horrified to know she is doing anything wrong. I bought a card which was advertised as handmade lace. It turned out to be machine lace. It is still pretty so I did`nt mind, I did write to her and pointed this out to her, she apologised and refunded my money. I did`nt want her to do that because as I have already said I was happy. She told me she was selling the lace items for an old lady who has given up lacemaking and is`nt too clear in her head about many things.[It comes to us all in the end] So the prices have come from her and the seller went by that. Yes I can see what Vivienne said about the price it was put in the auction for should have been a lot lower. But if you don`t know what price things are new, what can you do??? In essence the seller is not doing anything wrong as such, she just took advice from the owner of the patterns etc. Which was misguided.

Re: [lace] Lace Ebay seller
Hi Daphne, I haven't looked at her site but the friend who told me has. In her history she has sold more than one copy of patterns. Does a little old lady have more than one copy? I think she may be very savvy. We once bought a car which we had been told had only been driven by a little old lady. We later found we had been conned! I am not trying to stop you buying her stuff but if you want people like Christine Springett and us at Biggins (I think the wonderful Joan Kelly is no longer designing) to keep on designing for you all you need to support us. The lace world is shrinking so you all need to support us. Joan is a wonderful (sorry Joan) old lady and if she got 10p for every pattern of hers that has been stolen she would be a lot better off in her retirement than she actually is. I can hold my hand up and say, even before we designed our own patterns I never ever copied someone else's pattern. If I really liked it I sent off for one. This is my last email on the subject. Since I have been in plaster, though I am working as much as I can I have a lot of time to think. I shall try to come up with a new subject soon.
