I posted this in the "very important help me with my hair dilemma" thread as well.
************************************************** ****

The person who posted this is very misinformed. We are a 501 (c) 3. We sell unusable hair which is too short, grey or chemically damaged for $5/lb. These proceeds go toward the cost of making the hairpieces. Even though we use donated hair, each piece costs us $1,000.

We save our long hair for the children. Two inches of the length is lost in the manufacturing process so that long hair is very sought after. We are constantly looking through our inventory for 20 + inches of hair in particular requested colors. Please see http://www.locksoflove.org/manufacturing_process.php for more information on how are hairpieces are made.

I have never heard of a ponytail being sold on Ebay or any where else for that amount. Perhaps if it was Brooke Shields or some other celebrity.

Hope that answers your questions and dispels any rumors about our organization. I appreciate you asking the question so that you know the facts. I don't understand why some people portray themselves as authorities on things which they know nothing about.
Sincerely,
Susan
