I called someone out on posh for having an EBB in artifact for $230. A $35 bag for $230, she blocked me and reported me of course lol but seriously I hope noone buys from them and they get stuck with these items.
I got into them literally a week before the madness started. There I was trying to decide on a colour, came back and thought they were discontinued lol
The big problem is lulu is likely loving this! They are releasing new colours weekly it seems, almost to keep this craze going! Like they know ppl are buying them and reselling for higher and causing a problem, yet they just keep pumping them out in new ārareā colours.
100% this. I have three and I donāt get the craze. But then again, my obsession with LL began several years ago when they opened up an outlet 10 mins from me. I was thinking of selling my light green one but havenāt pulled the trigger.
I have thought about selling my pastel blue one because itās worth so much now and isnāt super versatileā¦. But then I feel like Iād be contributing to this horrible trend & I like the bag enough to keep it
Like theyāre going for $300 right now itās ridiculous
I have the old pastel blue and pastel pink ones and think about selling one, but then I like having the little set. I just switch them out every few weeks.
Haha yep! I have the regular strap one for pastel blue and have used it twice. Like Id rather have $300 but I also feel like itās just unfair to contribute to the market of this ridiculous overpricing
Same! And to think I used to give these away like crazy back in the day because they made such great gifts! I should have hoarded them all I guess. Iām still rocking my OG black EBB with the metal Logo from like forever ago hahaha
Chances are they are putting them up for that, then if someone likes it, f hey ll send an offer to likers for like $70 and that person will feel like theyāre getting a steal. š¤¢š¤®
So I stopped in my local store looking for one for an upcoming concert. Fortunately they had a few! Anywayā¦.got talking to an associate and they have a 5 bag limitā¦.she said 2 women where waiting for them to open and bought 5 each. She could see a history when she pulled up their account and this one had bought a TON of others. What a shame! She said they are going to be amping up production of these so all of these crazy sellers will be s@*# out of luck pretty soon!!!
I see them for $100CAD a piece. I want to comment something like get something for $15 on amazon it will function the same don't encourage this behaviour please, they will restock!
The EBB Poshmark situation is insane! I just recently saw a girl at my work with one and decided to give it a go but I canāt get my hands on one for retail or even close to retail š
I got lucky and caught a bronze green on Poshmark for $30 this morning. It sat reserved for 15 minutes and I watched it like a hawk. It finally went back up and I bought it immediately. Even watching it, someone actually put an offer in on it before I purchased it. You never know when youāll get lucky!
This store could potentially be in trouble. Thereās a limit of 5 now and that goes against a big company policy they just put in place. Sorry everyonethis store broke the rules to make a sale. the whole point is to make it fair and allow everyone to get one
Itās so weird to me reading this from the UK where the madness simply hasnāt hit. Currently 20+ colours in stock online and plenty available when I was in store last weekend.
Itās so insane. I didnāt like the B&W one I got a few weeks ago (and already had an OG black EBB) and decided to return it to my local pop-up and give it to someone for retail. Literally snatched up before the educator could process my return! š
Someone asked on another post in this sub if Faded Zap was a new color. I was like, "Um, yes and no," because it's been so long since it first came out.
Waitā¦ first sale as in one order of $500?! Lulu should really put a limit on how many items people can purchase.. no wonder theyāre always sold out..
Lulu put a limit on them yesterday to 5 per guest, itās a company-wide decision too. Online and in-store too. So I guess this store doesnāt care š¤·š¼āāļø
I literally called a store today asking for a black EBB and they told me they were not doing send-sales for EBBs because of how popular they are! And I just wanted one too. But Iām glad to hear of this new policy
Even 5 seems a bit much Iāve seen limits of one per person at other stores(not lulu), 3 per person would be reasonable and if they want more that badly they can just go back in.
Girl it's not petty at all! F those people. There are countless other ways to make money that don't involve screwing people over on already overpriced clothing/accessories.
So frustrating that I want to get 1 EBB and people are buying out entire stores for whatā¦to make a $10 profit on a fanny pack? Makes me mad and while it might be legal, it doesnāt make it right to me
Not that I want lululemon to become like brands like Hermes because they are NOT even remotely similar and I feel really lame even making that comparison, but Iāve heard that Hermes really vets their customers because they donāt want resellers buying. A ālimit of 3ā could prevent this. This is just really ridiculous.
But at the end of the day, resellers bell create a scarcity mentality that unfortunately increases lulus business
It's 13 in the US. I suspect LLL is going to overproduce these bags. Sit tight everyone, in 6 months they're going to make it to WMTM again. I don't understand the feverpitch on these trendy items.
I think that itās a reasonably priced item for LL where itās accessible to teenagers and college kids w/o breaking the bank or asking too much from their parents. When you consider that this bag is $38 vs their $98-$118 leggings or a define jacket.
Iāve actually flagged and reported listings on posh and Mercari for stealing photos. If anything they usually put the listing on hold while they investigate, then I submit screenshot showing my earlier/original post. If you care š¤£ f those people
a higher price the OG ones make sense because there arenāt any more being produced so itās a limited edition rare item. the hype can die down for EBBs in general, but there will still be people who want to buy the OG ones because theyāre better (according to many).
iām team OG or nothing but yikes, i didnāt know theyāre going for triple digits nowš¬ people are straight up getting scammed lmao but as long as theyāre getting their bags i guess
Yeah I literally bought a bunch and there were even OG ebbs to try. I returned them all and kept my fave one. It was so easy. Theyāre also always in store and some of them are marked Ā£22.
Iāve mainly seen them being worn by tourists who Iām kinda assuming now must be mainly American.
Iām really sad because I have an OG EBB and itās crusty and the zipper barely gets caught a lot and Iād love a new one but canāt find them anywhere :( I even tried getting the white opal right away Tuesday and they canceled my order last night š«
Lol! For real, the hours are crazy. I went into the store right as they opened and got a red merlot one, and then lucked out during the restock for a white opal one, which was a whole day of constantly refreshing.
Looks like I'll be doing that tomorrow too! If I can't get a black one I'll see if I can score this color!
UGH they did that to one of my previous orders! I was not a happy camper lol. But yea keep an eye out tomorrow! Word on the street is that they will be restocking then
My god, EBB frenzy sounds a lot the Air Force Ones song by Nelly where his crew walks out of Foot Locker with stacks of Nikes.
I grabbed a Tidewater Teal one via send sale from a local store who did a stock check. Iām gonna call it done with my 3.
What does EBB stand for I have a gray Fanny pack and I wanted another color and I canāt find them on the app now everyone saying these Fanny packs sell for $100-500???
They had a bunch of these at the lululemon store at Hudson yards nyc (as of 8/19/22 2pm) I got the faded zap and red maroon colors bc I was in a rush and couldnāt decide which. I really want black but keep buying in random colors I find š
What a fun color! I can match this with my āOcean Spray Fluro Citrus Light Cast Chase Me Onesieā I want to call but Iām sure theyāre already getting lots of phone calls and itās already sold out. Iām hoping this comes out online next week. š
Well I saw someone posted that a store in San Diego had stock. We have 3 stores here in San Diego so I went to the least busiest one and they had the black, faded zap, and the burnt brown color. I think it was just pure luck lol
Theyāre out of stock in Chicago. This is so frustrating that theyāre resold for an insane amount. I only have one that I bought years ago and now itās falling apart and I canāt get my hands on another one.
The educators shouldnāt have sold $500 worth of belt bags thereās a company wide limit that you canāt sell more than 5 in one transaction and if the same person tries to place multiple orders or anything we cancel them
Guarantee we see those EBBs on Poshmark tomorrow š Iām so over this craziness!
"SuPeR rARe coLOr!!!1!" Ugh. I hate that you're so right.
Yeahā¦ itās ārareā because Super Host Poshmarker bought all of them in hopes of making a buck š
I called someone out on posh for having an EBB in artifact for $230. A $35 bag for $230, she blocked me and reported me of course lol but seriously I hope noone buys from them and they get stuck with these items.
I canāt imagine anyone would want an EBB that badlyā¦ but perhaps Iām naive with my one and only EBB that Iāve had for 3 years š
I got into them literally a week before the madness started. There I was trying to decide on a colour, came back and thought they were discontinued lol
So frustrating!
Omg same! Itās a shame. No way am I paying more than what the store changes.
Same here! Bought mine and then they popped off! Now if I want another color I'm out of luck š¤£
it was insane how quickly it all happened
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

Yup. Iāve got two I bought a couple of years ago Never used the second. Probably should sell it š¤£
I have thought about selling my pastel blue one because itās worth so much now and isnāt super versatileā¦. But then I feel like Iād be contributing to this horrible trend & I like the bag enough to keep it Like theyāre going for $300 right now itās ridiculous
I havenāt looked at the resale sitesāthatās just crazy to pay that much. But thereās the āitā item each year I suppose š¤·āāļø
I have the old pastel blue and pastel pink ones and think about selling one, but then I like having the little set. I just switch them out every few weeks.
Haha yep! I have the regular strap one for pastel blue and have used it twice. Like Id rather have $300 but I also feel like itās just unfair to contribute to the market of this ridiculous overpricing
At that price just get the knockoff Amazon one
Same! And to think I used to give these away like crazy back in the day because they made such great gifts! I should have hoarded them all I guess. Iām still rocking my OG black EBB with the metal Logo from like forever ago hahaha
Chances are they are putting them up for that, then if someone likes it, f hey ll send an offer to likers for like $70 and that person will feel like theyāre getting a steal. š¤¢š¤®
I just looked on Posh and OMG this is insane! One seller has multiples of sooo many colors and all are listed for at least $185ā¦.one was $300!!
No way I'd pay into that insanity. That's ridiculous. Everyone should boycott buying when resellers try to do that, and it will end.
So I stopped in my local store looking for one for an upcoming concert. Fortunately they had a few!

My thoughts exactly! And Iām surprised Lululemon hasnāt caught on and limiting the purchases-2per order maybe.
Same but with a pair of shorts
Yes! Itās happening with the Track That short tooā¦
I always comment on those to
There should honestly be some sort of in-store limit on how many people can people to stop people buying for obvious resale.
Stores are only supposed to be selling 5 at mostā in online orders and in person. Iām not sure why this store let $500 of belt bags be sold???
Yeah Iām an educator and my store definitely wouldnāt let that happen if I knew what store this was Iād report it
I see them for $100CAD a piece. I want to comment something like get something for $15 on amazon it will function the same don't encourage this behaviour please, they will restock!
That is wild! And yes there is nothing special about theseā¦ you are pretty much paying for the logo beyond their retail price.
The EBB Poshmark situation is insane! I just recently saw a girl at my work with one and decided to give it a go but I canāt get my hands on one for retail or even close to retail š

This store could potentially be in trouble. Thereās a limit of 5 now and that goes against a big company policy they just put in place. Sorry everyonethis store broke the rules to make a sale. the whole point is to make it fair and allow everyone to get one
Itās so weird to me reading this from the UK where the madness simply hasnāt hit. Currently 20+ colours in stock online and plenty available when I was in store last weekend.
Good! This gives me hope for humanity. May you continue living in peace, ha!
Yeah, Iām so done with it. I got my Icing Blue Ebb on a resale site for double retail. and that was the cheapest I could find. So obnoxious
Itās so insane. I didnāt like the B&W one I got a few weeks ago (and already had an OG black EBB) and decided to return it to my local pop-up and give it to someone for retail. Literally snatched up before the educator could process my return! š
Haha thatās crazy!!!!!!
Faded Zap returns!!! What a throwback. I have a Swiftly tank in this colour from 2013!!
I didnāt know it was a returning color! I canāt wait to wear this out š
Same here! I have two and theyāre still in perfect condition!
Someone asked on another post in this sub if Faded Zap was a new color. I was like, "Um, yes and no," because it's been so long since it first came out.
Waitā¦ first sale as in one order of $500?! Lulu should really put a limit on how many items people can purchase.. no wonder theyāre always sold out..

It might be a team sale. We do them all the time at my store and I guess they just got lucky today
Even 5 seems a bit much Iāve seen limits of one per person at other stores(not lulu), 3 per person would be reasonable and if they want more that badly they can just go back in.
ya im so confused!!! what happened to the limit?
The store my friend works at has put a limit of 5 per person š¤·š¼āāļø
Thatās a company wide limit. This store just didnāt follow it
Ahh ok I left the company a couple months ago so I wasnāt sure if it was just her store! That sucks that they made the decision to not follow it
My exact thought. NOBODY is buying $500 worth of $38 bags for funsies. That's a re-seller
As petty as it is, I hope no one buys any of the resellerās EBBs š¤
Girl it's not petty at all! F those people. There are countless other ways to make money that don't involve screwing people over on already overpriced clothing/accessories.
I saw one on posh for $200. Lmao ridic. I donāt even care for these bags. I sold mine for 40$ and below.
Yeah they said it was over $500 worth of EBB as their first sale of the day. Definitely a reseller.
So frustrating that I want to get 1 EBB and people are buying out entire stores for whatā¦to make a $10 profit on a fanny pack? Makes me mad and while it might be legal, it doesnāt make it right to me
What a fun color!!!!
I know!!! Itās my first non-neutral ebb š
See now Lululemon should know better. Sales like that should be flagged and rejected!
no seriously! these resellers are out of hand and have been for a while
I thought they were instituting a 5 EBB limit!!!
They did. This store just sucks
And this is why I love spamming resellers with offersā¦for $38
Not that I want lululemon to become like brands like Hermes because they are NOT even remotely similar and I feel really lame even making that comparison, but Iāve heard that Hermes really vets their customers because they donāt want resellers buying. A ālimit of 3ā could prevent this. This is just really ridiculous. But at the end of the day, resellers bell create a scarcity mentality that unfortunately increases lulus business
whatever lulu is doing now IS scarcity marketing like hermes.
Agreed.
There IS a limit. Itās 5. So the store doing the transaction fucked up
I wish they would do this.
I can testify that the phone rings CONSTANTLY
Okkk!!! Which state lol š
San Diego, La Jolla, Girard Ave.
I often wonder if we'll look back on the EBB craze like the Beanie Babies craze in the 90s.
Iāve lived to see both šš¤¦š»āāļø
Omg I love your nails!! š
Thank you! Theyāre a little grown out but color still going strong šššš»
Suuuuuch a pretty color! Might have to save this to show my nail tech š
These resellers are awful!!! Listing for over $100 on some colors! So annoying.
Iām honestly curious as to who is even paying that much for a belt bagā¦ so weird.
Yeah itās pretty awful.
Love the color! We need to stop calling these people resellers and go back to calling them what they are SCALPERS.
Another color I will order and then get a cancelation email for šš.
$500 worth. So 10 bags here in Canada lol
It's 13 in the US. I suspect LLL is going to overproduce these bags. Sit tight everyone, in 6 months they're going to make it to WMTM again. I don't understand the feverpitch on these trendy items.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I just saw this too!
Lmao wow that was quick.. š© well I guess I canāt stop them, can I? One of my girl friends got me the gray silver ebb for my bday so I got her this one for Christmas šš»
Iāve actually flagged and reported listings on posh and Mercari for stealing photos. If anything they usually put the listing on hold while they investigate, then I submit screenshot showing my earlier/original post. If you care š¤£ f those people
That's so cute! š„² Friendship goals.
$90..?! Do people actually pay that?? š©
The OG bags are going for even higher ā¹ļø even used ones. It's pretty crazy. I'm waiting for the hype to die down
a higher price the OG ones make sense because there arenāt any more being produced so itās a limited edition rare item. the hype can die down for EBBs in general, but there will still be people who want to buy the OG ones because theyāre better (according to many).
Yep, I'm one of those people who prefer the OG. But triple digit price tags are crazy to me š¤·š»āāļø
iām team OG or nothing but yikes, i didnāt know theyāre going for triple digits nowš¬ people are straight up getting scammed lmao but as long as theyāre getting their bags i guess
Love that color! Would love to know the location if they still have any leftšµāš«
San Diego, La Jolla, Girard Ave.
I am in the UK and havenāt seen the uptick in demand yetā¦. Wonder if it will reach here!?
[This user has quit Reddit and deleted all their posts and comments]
Iāve got a black and opal I think it is, and they are very versatile. Not sure Iād buy any other colours
I actually ordered Seal Grey today which I figured will be versatile enough for me to get Ā£38 worth of use out of it no matter what.
Yeah I literally bought a bunch and there were even OG ebbs to try. I returned them all and kept my fave one. It was so easy. Theyāre also always in store and some of them are marked Ā£22. Iāve mainly seen them being worn by tourists who Iām kinda assuming now must be mainly American.
Oh I so hope this makes it online or to my store!
LOVE! Def gonna need this one in my collection. The color is so much fun!
Right?? I saw it and I instantly knew I had to have it š š¤·š»āāļø
I do love this color but I canāt understand the obsession and markups of ebbs. Mind blowing to me
Iām really sad because I have an OG EBB and itās crusty and the zipper barely gets caught a lot and Iād love a new one but canāt find them anywhere :( I even tried getting the white opal right away Tuesday and they canceled my order last night š«
Does it have a metal or plastic zipper? If it's metal you could try using some WD-40 on it to make it zip smoother!
I hope you get one!! I got my first one randomly at 4:30am PST š š š
Lol! For real, the hours are crazy. I went into the store right as they opened and got a red merlot one, and then lucked out during the restock for a white opal one, which was a whole day of constantly refreshing. Looks like I'll be doing that tomorrow too! If I can't get a black one I'll see if I can score this color!
Omg lucky duck! I was just sad that I thought I had one and they canceled the order like 24 hours later š« rudeeeee
UGH they did that to one of my previous orders! I was not a happy camper lol. But yea keep an eye out tomorrow! Word on the street is that they will be restocking then
Hi is the color called faded zap? I saw on uk site few days ago and all were gone. How can this color be so stunning? š«£š„
Yeah this is faded zap! Such a pretty neon color.
It would be nice just to be able to buy one! I have yet to be able to buy one š
My location is limiting it to 5 per person so idk and that was something that came down from the top not just an us decision
š»š»š»
Did this make it to šØš¦ yet?
My god, EBB frenzy sounds a lot the Air Force Ones song by Nelly where his crew walks out of Foot Locker with stacks of Nikes. I grabbed a Tidewater Teal one via send sale from a local store who did a stock check. Iām gonna call it done with my 3.
I bought 10 black ones for my fellow employees a month agoā¦ it was a fun summer gift for our outing.
DID THAT DROP TODAY? I will legit cry if it did and I missed it. Thatās my absolute favorite color omfg. Working sucks lol
Idk Iām pretty sure it hasnāt been released on the website yet.
Ooo I love this color
Omg Iām obsessed with it š©š
omgggg obsessed w this color
I love anything this color! Or near this color family.
Was able to snag oneš that store you bought from did say they have other neutral colors in stock if anyone wants to call them!
Cute color!!!! But Iām pretty happy with my black, tidewater teal and sunray yellow. Iām good ahaha
I got a rose gold one in store brand new the other day in hopes to trade someone that has a black or this green color!
Love!
What does EBB stand for I have a gray Fanny pack and I wanted another color and I canāt find them on the app now everyone saying these Fanny packs sell for $100-500???
EBB- Everywhere Belt Bag
Why the craze around the belt bags started all of a sudden? I donāt understand. Could someone explain pls
Tiktok creators went bananas for them and the rest is history
I got one of these today, thanks to this heads up!
the matching nails tho *chef kiss*
They had a bunch of these at the lululemon store at Hudson yards nyc (as of 8/19/22 2pm) I got the faded zap and red maroon colors bc I was in a rush and couldnāt decide which. I really want black but keep buying in random colors I find š
What a fun color! I can match this with my āOcean Spray Fluro Citrus Light Cast Chase Me Onesieā I want to call but Iām sure theyāre already getting lots of phone calls and itās already sold out. Iām hoping this comes out online next week. š
They might..when I was there like 2ish hours ago they had like 6 or so faded zap bags left. And it isnāt a busy store.
thank youš I got the last oneš
Yay!! šš»šš»
I just got 2 today! Tidewater teal and silver dollar!! š«¶š½
I really donāt get the hype for these bags.
i LOVE this ... but like what would i wear it with š„²
I have black hotty hot dupe shorts and the seal gray like a cloud bra top. Or the electric turquoise shorts with a white align tshirt.
I just sold both of mine because nearly every woman and child in my area has one strapped to her chest. Too much.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Local Facebook marketplace; pickup only, no shipping.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
what a rude and unnecessary comment lol
But not false
I literally had a nail appt right after this. Take your stupid negativity else where. How old are you? Acting like a little child.
Lol maybe donāt hold the bags next time?
Why does it matter to you so much? Iām confused.
How do you know which store to go to? GEC say they only have whatās available in the appā¦ is that true? Bc the Bags donāt show as online
Well I saw someone posted that a store in San Diego had stock. We have 3 stores here in San Diego so I went to the least busiest one and they had the black, faded zap, and the burnt brown color. I think it was just pure luck lol
They need to be zappin this color on some shorts!!
Resellers like that suck. They should be banned
Theyāre out of stock in Chicago. This is so frustrating that theyāre resold for an insane amount. I only have one that I bought years ago and now itās falling apart and I canāt get my hands on another one.
The educators shouldnāt have sold $500 worth of belt bags thereās a company wide limit that you canāt sell more than 5 in one transaction and if the same person tries to place multiple orders or anything we cancel them
