Is this a Bella?

The shape of the bra and the appearance of some of the motifs look like a Bella, but the awful lopsided christmas tree shape of the cut out in the skirt belies that.

what do you think?

YES this is a Bella...
This girl is trying to sell this costume aprox. 3 months ago in a place in Germany "Markplatz" Second Hand Borse.
I was looking on Ebay Gemany (Bauchtanzkostüm )
and she didn't list in her country only here, so,
always ask to the sellers for the original Bella tag (attached to the skirt).

This is definetely a Bella. I know the girl and her costumes and she takes good care of them, when she tells me the costume is never worn I believe her.

I guess why she now offers it on ebay US is, that she already tried to offer it in the german market but the prices for Bella costumes dropped here.
There are so many second hand Bellas out here and Bella is not far away so when you offer a new or as good as new costume you get told "why should I buy this particular one for a price 80-90% of it when new when I could get a (worn to death) Bella for much less or pay 50 Euro more and buy my favorite Bella at their shop?"
I sold a costume a little back only worn twice for which I payed 650 Euro. Took me a while to find someone offering me a reasonable price for it, most told me they would be willing to pay 250-300 Euro 8(

Sell a second-hand-costume is difficult in Germany

Shari is right, it's very difficult to sell a good second-hand-costume now in Germany.
Some of us flying to Istanbul and buy costumes from Bella or SIM and sell this costumes one or two years later. These costumes are expensive because of their high-class-work. And after one year You see nothing that the costume is used...But we can't loose to much money with selling. We pay between 500 and 900 Euro for the costumes, cause how much stones and so one on it. And so it's impossible to sell a 700 Euro costume one year later for 200 Euro!
Best regards
Salima
