Before you bid or buy an item, read the discription carefully. And try to know prices and sizes that you would actually buy in the store. For example, a 9gram of foundation sells at $25.00. And the 2gram size is a sample size that you would get if you purchased the starter kit. Also, you may wonder how people can sell so much of bare minerals? Well thats because some people on here work for the bare minerals company, and the people that work for them can either get their products anywhere from 50% off or free. So just remeber, try to keep the bids lower, and everyone on here can get there products cheaper.
