DAMN IT

That was just.. unbelievable bad luck!!! My friend Ghazal is going with me to the Anime Convention Friday and we want to wear the Yukata I bought in Japan. But I am missing a few important pieces. I need Obi-ita, its like a board you place under the obi to keep it from getting wrinkles and keeps it in its place, and koshi himo. I have three koshi himo I bought in Japan, but you need at least two to wear the yukata so I need to buy more. And I only found some on ebay inside the US, they were available this morning when I emailed the the seller about the Obi-ita and if she could ship priority and combine shipping. When I got a yes I headed to ebay. Guess what, all the koshi himo were GONE. Sold OUT. Within three hours of finding them, that's three sets!!!! I only needed ONE! ARGH. So now I'm debating. Do I order 2 Obi-ita and try to come up with something that will work for the koshi himo? I'm secretly hoping she posts more for sale tonight. -sighs-

A little delayed but here they are
