  1. No, but when I tried to search for just a "dress", the most expensive item is this https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/The-Pink-Panther-Diamond-Ring-White-Gold-White-Diamond-Donate-in-cancer-research/7877404 for L$2,999,999 which goes to the Cancer Institute Research says the page.
  2. Yeah, I bought a dress one colour because of the picture and the demo had no hud. It had a bow and I thought the hud would let you change the colour of the bow. Most brands usually allow you to change the colour of the bow, belt, frills, etc. In the end, I've never worn the dress because all black didn't look as nice, and never bought from the designer again, though I'm not even sure who it was now.
  3. I ignore fatpacks too. I've noticed that often the one colour I want is in the fatback, but I just can't justify that amount of money to change a dress colour. Wearing the same dress with 15 different colours doesn't appeal to me, even though I don't change clothes too many times. I'm better buying a different dress in another colour.
  4. I'm not talking about the Marketplace. I'm talking about shopping in-world at one of those popular fashion events which doesn't have an option to gift a demo.
  5. Well said. We are not all fortunate to be able to spend money on SL. One person said on Twitter that 1L equals five minutes fishing for her, so she will not buy a demo.
  6. In RL, we don't pay to try clothes on in a store, but if ordering online, that' a different story, and brands like Adidas and Nike, yeah, well, that's another story too lol
  7. Agreed. I went to a store once to find out all the demos were 1L each. Left without looking back. This is happening at popular fashion events though. I sent an email to the event manager or whoever read the emails on the website, asking for their "thoughts" on this matter lol No one has replied yet.
  8. This is an example of an outfit I thought was cute, but when I tried it on, it didn't fit https://gyazo.com/f14a410a2a74106b8242820f14e37b88 This is why we have demo. Not everything works no matter how cute it is.
  9. Some of them do but I rarely see them to be honest. Any other demo, have demo written all over them, lack of texture or some big horrible thing hanging over your head or around you. Never seen a demo good enough to wear. And I'm not after freebies. I'm happy to pay but sometimes I need to try before I buy, but I can't see why I should pay for a demo.
  10. Damn, I've never seen a demo that was good enough to wear. Sometimes they even disappear after a few minutes.
  11. Yes, I understand that. When it has a purpose, it's fine, but if you're trying to hook me at a fashion event, charging me for a demo is not the way to go in my books. It's a demo.
  12. What do you mean? I wanted to try the dress before I buy it since I've never bought from that designer. I want to understand why some designers are charging to demo their clothes at an event. What's next, we're going to have to pay to look at a piece of furniture before we can buy it?
  13. I've started this discussion on Flickr which might get me banned somewhere for opening my big mouth but I would like for someone to give me a good reason of why I should pay for a demo. And is there anyone that agree or disagree with this? It's not the first I see that at events. I passed on a pair of boots because they were L499 and I had to pay for the demo. I also came across a store once that had all their demos set at L$1.
  14. New Dead Dollz outfit with my unicorn bag lol

  16. Sims 4 looks and is good with some much needed improvement but not near as fun as Sims 2 or even Sims 3.
  17. I don't feel negative reviews is worth much on second life at the risk of being banned unless I was a big time blogger such as Strawberrysingh. I'm not even banned on her store, just on the sim where the event happens so not hurting her really, just the other vendors I might have bought from because I'm a spender. I do say things how I see it on Twitter or blog but I don't use names unless someone really wants to know. I knew she blocked me but I only found out I was banned from the sim because I mentioned in a group I couldn't get in and led me to find out even more shady stuff... And the thing is: I love her stuff, so a bit sad really. I do try to leave reviews on MP though because I like reading reviews and it sometimes influences me to buy or not, but I've rarely experienced such extreme customer service.
  18. All I want to add to this thread is I don't know much about modding. I mostly resize stuff. I paid a fair bit of money for one object I had not seen which in my opinion was too big and looked unrealistic so it stayed in my inventory. I decided to mention it though in a comment. Being ignorant and did not mean to offend as I have tones of stuff from that store, the creator could have just explained to me why that particular object could not be resized. Instead, I received a nasty message after being blocked on SL and Flickr and banned from a sim which forbid me access to one event. Now I'm being careful when it says no mod and will easily give it a miss.
  19. Does the hunt comes with the basket? Because I would totally do it just for that basket lol
  20. That's going to be interesting. Who is the organiser? I'm in the middle of writing a post about the amount of events because Scandalize announced she was starting one. I'd like to see more themed events or events with a purpose (like the one you just mentioned) instead of starting a new event just to start a new event, if you know what I mean...
  21. They don't really look naked (from that angle), they look like grey mannequins, so to me it would be okay. It looks more decent than someone "half - if half even," dressed...
  22. Would it be wrong to ask what's the idea behind the drones? Are they avatars?
  23. excuse me for my ignorance, but wouldn't the allowance be under each name?
