Bait and Switch

I don't know about YOU, but when I click on an Ebay listing for an "Exotic Evil Black Fairy Mini Dress W/ Mesh Fringes L" I damn well expect the wings to be included! But they're not! What's up with that? I have to buy the wings separately? The wings are what make it "fairy"! Otherwise, it's just exotic, evil, and black. And definitely mini. Don't forget mini.

This is what happens every time I think I should venture out of the happy little roses and kittens world that is vintage on Ebay into the modern clothing listings. Which is not roses and kittens, as you can see, but, well, exotic, evil, and fairy. If you buy the wings separately.

The listing runs until August 11, so there's plenty of time to track down your own set of evil fairy wings, if you're so inclined. Also, the lister promises that "This tacy and racy outfit ... will have all the male predators slavering and panting over you." Personally, I try to keep the male predators (as well as the female ones) far, far away from me, but hey, I'm not going to judge your lifestyle. Especially not if it involves wings. I'm not quite sure what "tacy" means here -- I'm assuming it's a typo for "tasty." I'm pretty sure it doesn't have anything to do with this.
