It went right up to $8,500 before the fake bids were cancelled. There are a couple of others I suspect are also fake.

I placed a bid cause I wouldnt mind having a seamless weave right before my cruise but on second thought I'm glad I was outbid because I'm not about to spend $500 on a weave.

If I were a betting woman, I'd bet my next install that the highest bidder won't be able to pay

SewNatural charges $150.00 for a blowout and trim according to her website. I can go to the dominicans and get that done for $40.00.

If Sew-Natural is doing blow outs, then she is a fool for advertising it. If you are unlicensed, you aren't supposed to be doing anything else to a person's hair other than weaving it.

if she could charge 5k an install she should
her weaves/wig can be as basic as they want to be, but if someone is gonna pay her she def needs to go and get that money

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
While, I to think this charge is out of pocket for the services and her skills.........
We can all say what we want, but at the end of the day this is "Business 101". This is no different then some of these CV's or IV's charging ridicalous prices for shipping (B-DOGG ). When we ALL know that it does NOT cost $75 to ship some hair via Fedex. But we pay it anyway and keep it moving.

International Shipping and Customs fees are pretty steep in some countries......... $75 for shipping isn't outrageous with tracking, but $975 for a sew in that is good for 3 months at best is Sumthin Differen'..... definitely not market value for services..... $160+/hour..... NOT LIKELY.

Just think about it though. If no one was willing to pay it, she would either be forced to lower her prices to market value or be out of business.
