It seems like she must have a lot of extras to sell them. There is no way she can make enough from them to replace them. I get a lot of samples but rarely do I have any extras let alone enough to sell. I guess good for her for having a good idea.

I was an avid fan of Lancome for a while there and was always very surpised to see the samples being sold on Ebay. You know how they give the gift with purchase? Well those are always for sale, also the little samples of creams and mascaras that you can get if you ask for them. I also had a friend who worked as the manager so I know that all their employees get to take 2 samples per day. Well all these samples were also on sale as well as the bottles of foundation that are to be used to fill customers sample bottles. What I have found to be the funniest are the coupons that are being sold. I mean who pays for free coupons that can be cutt out from newspapers? Well someone must because a lot of them can be found on Ebay.

What types of free samples are you talking about? I do things online and receive products all the time and yes sometimes I sell them. It is not wrong to sell the products to someone who likes them. It also depends on the price she was asking.

like the deotrant, shampoo and stuff like that the prices where okay but they where not all that great they where a little bit under the store price if you would buy them there, i didnt say any thing was wrong with doing it i just never seen any one do it before i mean hey if thats a way to make a little extra money then hey why not.
