Hi to all sisterly sufferers of an insidious and consuming [but erotic] passion.
I have recently deposited an album here which goes somewhere to demonstrating some of my interests but tose pics were taken a year ago. What I am writing about now is the insatiable desire that I have to buy merchandise on ebay.
You can guess what merchandise (or at least some of the sort of merchandise that I would purchase (there's almost a rhyme there!)) but now I'm getting to the stage where the urge to purchase is becoming uncontrollable. Do you think it is the dreaded girl's urge to spend (they think that that's better than sex, I'm told - but I don't believe it)? Should I resist it? What is your advice? Oh! By the way, what colours should I buy?

certainly don't stop, just say yes, yes to pink, yes to lace, yes to see through, yes to silky and clinging, why stop?

Hopefully it's self-limiting in a way. I've found that, looking over my purchases, and they extend far beyond panties . . . . it has gradually dawned on me that I need to exert at least some control here. What I've done is to take a page from Miss Vera's book and weigh heavily towards "virtual" wardrobe items. Of course, this also allows me to "purchase" many items that would not have been my size had I bought them in reality.
Still, I do have two cute little girl dresses from the incomparable "unikaren," and two and a half (or so) anime cosplay outfits I had custom made to my measurements by someone in Japan whose name escapes me. But my does she do fine work, and when you consider it, as long as you avoid bidding wars, her reserve prices are fairly reasonable, compared to purchasing a comparable item (at least in materials and all) off the rack. Nothing off the rack is going to fit nearly so well as these dresses can, so long as I gain no more weight.
What I've done lately to cut back on my habit is to actively remind myself that I'll often get just as much pleasure from a set of pictures in many cases. Also, I've been promising myself that I'll get back to my own sewing, and use some of what I've seen there, and in the wider world of fashion, as inspiration. Perhaps some day I'll become a net seller instead. I certainly have the stockpiles of materials, notions, buttons, laces to get me well on my way. I also remind myself that my vice has led to some definite storage problems, and that I need to finish finding places for all my purchases that don't include odd corners of my bedroom, or every margin of my walk-in closet (and a few other unclaimed closets that also have their share of stuff in them).
I also try to remind myself that I truly enjoy shopping IRL, and that it burns at least a few more calories than online shopping. Also, I find that I'm much pickier when I can actually see, touch, and estimate the fit of various garments as I wend my way through the department and specialty stores, not to mention, places like Target or Kohls. I'm sure some of these strategies may be almost unique to me (especially the sewing revival one), but I hope some of them might offer you some potential strategies that would work for you.

My conscious was telling me it wasn't right to be an obsessive compulsive and buy panties all the time. It was EBAY, it was the internet, it was the mall, it was the small town shops and the flea market, they all had an influence on me. I spend my money as if it was going out of style, always thinking there would be more where that came from. I was fooled, believing I had a job for life and I could continue to buy and buy and buy, I put a lot on my credit cards, with my job I could manage. Until it happened they called us all into the cafeteria and said get your things and turn in your company pass, we have closed down and are no longer in business. I wish it was different but I have accumulated a lot of lovely lingerie and panties over the years, enough to keep me in panties for the next ten years. I do buy them on occasion only if I have the money.
