Tina Arnold, former star of 1000-Lb Best Friends, has been striving to establish herself as a successful entrepreneur. Alongside her co-stars, she has explored various business ideas over the years. One idea involved Tina and Meghan Crumpler considering the purchase of an RV to start a blog. More recently, Tina announced the opening of her own photography shop.
However, Tina’s latest venture has not been well-received by viewers. Online discussions about her new endeavor have been less than favorable. What are viewers saying?
Even though Tina Arnold stated that she left 1000-Lb Best Friends, she remains a hot topic of discussion on Reddit. In a recent post, users expressed their displeasure with her latest money-making venture.
“[Tina] is selling her used dresses for $50, claiming they originally cost double that amount. She says since she has only worn them once or twice, it’s a great deal!” one Redditor shared on the platform. They included photos from one of Tina’s social media posts, although it seems she has since taken it down.
The images showcased Tina modeling the dresses for potential buyers.
“Here are the dresses currently available for purchase. Each dress is priced at $50, plus shipping. Sizes are indicated in the captions of the front-facing photos,” the post stated. “Items cannot be reserved; please be ready to complete payment upon claiming. I ship within the US. International shipping is possible if you’re willing to cover the higher costs; please check and confirm the shipping fees beforehand.”
The original poster (OP) added that they wouldn’t consider paying $50 for a used dress and asked other Redditors for their opinions.
Tina Arnold receives significant criticism from 1000-Lb Best Friends fans on Reddit, but this particular post seemed to strike a nerve with viewers.
A few fans acknowledged that the dresses might have originally come from Torrid, a store known for its higher prices, so it’s possible Tina did pay more than $50 for them. However, the majority of Reddit users were uninterested in purchasing used dresses that the TLC star had worn under the hot Georgia sun.
“To be fair, if she got them at Torrid, they may very well have cost double. This is why you should only buy things on sale there!” one Reddit user commented. “That being said, would I pay that much for used clothes? NO! I don’t even pay $50 for brand new items, AND I get free shipping!”
“Torrid is expensive, but no one wants to spend $50 on used Torrid clothes. You can find similar items at thrift stores for a fraction of the cost. It’s insane for her to think she can charge $50 for used clothes she doesn’t want,” another user chimed in.
