The Bottom Drawer Forums

How would you feel about the members posting about their "Clear-The -Drawer Specials" of never-worn or gently-used microwear here on the Forum? They could then PM each other, perhaps exchange pictures of the goods, and work out a deal! No waste of good microwear, and loving homes to boot!

That would be fine. Probably need some rules like making sure the listing is kept up to date. Only reply to post if general questions otherwise should be a PM. Listing not updated in a certain time period would get deleted. Those are some ideas that come to mind with the idea.

Hey guys, just wanted to thank you for all the responses. I read them all, and I have decided to not purchase those 40+ thongs, and instead spread out the purchases throughout the year. What paranoids me about this is the fact that they will stop selling that certain print/design. This has happened to me before with Prevail Sport, and very recently, Joe Boxer. They don't make the String Bikinis for this brand anymore, and they have some awesome prints that I wish I could have bought. The cost for a box of 3-4 pairs was at $10, and if you try to find them on ebay, they go for $30-$90!!! What do you guys do in situations like this one? It really bugs me.

In life we learn to live with regret. I kick myself all the time for not buying from Prevail Sport when I had the opportunity. Also brands even now will have a design that I love but when I go to buy it is sold out in my size. Unless you have an unlimited budget you have to look for the ones that seem really special to you. Sometimes you get them on sale and sometimes you pay full price and sometimes you miss out.

Very much agree with the regret regarding PrevailSport. I might take a guess and say that the ongoing "hiding" of the underwear is what contributes to the stockpiling of it. I only wear bikinis and thongs, and I don't hide it -- I wear them for work, sleep, working out, lounging around the house, traveling...whatever. And I really don't buy underwear all that often, and I don't have a collection nearly the size of some of the folks on this Board; I probably have around a total of 50 pairs or so. My other rule is that every piece of underwear I own can be worn for any occasion, because I grab a handful from the pile and throw it in a suitcase when I'm packing. So for me, yes, I enjoy the thrill of the bikini and thong undies but also they serve a very practical purpose. I would ditch (or donate) anything that isn't what you really want to wear, and wear only what you want...all the time!
