This is the sign that greeted me loud and clear when I arrived at the H&M on Michigan Avenue in Chicago last Friday morning November 9. Roberto Cavalli at H&M, GONE. ALL OF IT. It had only been released 24 hours before on Nov. 8! When I asked an H&M associate how long the Cavalli collection had all been sold out, she told me that when she got to work at 3:30 PM on Thursday the day of the launch, that there were only a few pairs of Cavalli men's underwear left. That's it! Another sales girl told me (as I was paying for another really cute dress and top I picked up..) that the H&M Cavalli collection (with pieces that ranged in price from $80 - $100 in the store) will have a whole new existence on Ebay. She told me that some people were there specifically to buy it out at the store, only to turn around and re-sell it (at a premium too, I might add) on the popular auction site. So if you really, really want a piece of the Cavalli collection from H&M, and you don't mind paying double, and in some cases triple the price, now you know where you can get it.

Great site! Found it searching for Top Model photos. :)
I love H&M. Seriously, the internet piracy needs to stop. Every time you turn around someone is trying to make a dollar. Sad :(
Yes, it's the tarjay phenomenon and they do it with many of the designer lines there also. It's fucced up because people can't go get it in the stores for a reasonable price because these azz holes have purposely bought it all up and are selling it for 3 and 4 times what it's worth. I went on ebay today and noticed the cavalli h&m line on there...shoes selling for $300! Dresses for $400...jackets $500! It's sick. I don't know who the hell is STUPID enough to be buying the lines on ebay for that much extra...but they are truly retarded if they are.
