So I've been trying to score a bottle of Bond No 9's Washington Square for weeks now. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a bottle under $100. Until last week. I saw an eBay auction for Bond No 9 Washington Square starting at $50. The listing said it was 2oz, had no pictures, the seller only had 7 feedback (all positive,) and the description just said it was mostly full. So even though all signs pointed to NO, I said WTH, and bid on it. I won the auction at $61. 3 days later, the seller ships. I just received it today and to my surprise, it was a 95% full 3.4oz bottle!!! A 95% full 3.4oz bottle of Bond No 9 Washington Square for $61!!! Omg I'm pretty pumped right now...

That is all.... Lol

Nice. Congrats on this nice deal.

I myself got an 95% 3.4oz Coney Island last year on ebay for 62 bucks and that made my day. To hell: that made my month lol!

I like it. I got this and West Side and I prefer Washington Square. It's more masculine. The roses in west side r in your face. But I like them both

All my blind buys were bad for me and I ended up selling fragrances or trading them.
I am not buying anything now if I don't try sample first.
