Can't believe the sale price is $79.98 plus S&H for a bra! That's on sale. Check 

out A713124. Seems awfully high for a bra!

Yes, ridiculous in my opinion.

 

I like Wacoal bras and have worn them for many years.  Went to Macy's the other day and they are now $75.  

 

I paid $50 before for Wacoal brand and thought that was too much not sure I'll pay $75.

  TJ Max had some bra brand that looked alot like  this Evelyn & Bobbie  bra. The price was way less than $79 .

I checked eBay, for the E&B style of bra offered as a TSV today, and there several over there selling for a lot less.

We had a couple of bra factries in our town when I was growing up, my mom worked in one of them. She put the wires in the undercups. She would buy me bras for under $5. . . can you imagine? They were Bestform and Maidenform bras. About once a month they had sales at the factory store and they could be bought for a buck or two.

I agree, it's expensive. Fortunately there are a lot of bras to choose from that are less expensive.

 

There are over 100 under $25.00.

I like a bra cami - tried the E&B one about a year ago - didn't care for it - thought the bra made me look bigger and the cami part wasn't a shaper.  Ended up trying - and absolutely loving - a Vanity Fair shaping bra cami that I found on Amazon.  The bra is molded but not padded.  Great price too.  I bought a few. more.

Does seem high, but they have made a niche for their market.  Excellent branding.

I'll stick with Jockey. $80 for a bra is just plain ridiculous. And experts say you should replace them every 6-12 months. I don't think so.
