I had two sets of fitted sheets sent to me from home, but oopsy, I got the measurements wrong and they don't fit my bed. As such, they have never been used and are up for grabs...

Both come with pillow slips, colors are "cobalt" and "taupe" (looks like blue and creamy brown to me), they are "polycotton", and the size is as follows: 107 x 187 x 28cm.

They're quite nice I think, pity they don't fit as I can't find sheets like this in Korea.

So, any offers? You can PM me here, or send an email to [email protected]

PS - I am in Seoul

** full XL from another website is: 54" x 80", fyi.
QUEEN SIZE: 60" wide x 80" long (152 cm wide x 203 cm long)

The Korean bed sizes are a little off I've been told, but matching close as you can is better than NO sheet. Good Luck!

I'm interested, but size-uh, no pit-uh, sorly.
you gotta love it, simply cute as all get-out!!!
PS, they don't appear to fit anything, haha....

Yeah, my bed is 130cm x 200cm, so what is that? A double?

yeah, sounds like a double/full, two names for one size, but Korea is different in their sizes unless you search for a Western bed. Mine is 54" x 80" so considered a full XL, but yours is just off a little and you'd maybe have to buy sheets from Korea to fit it. Weird, huh? Good Luck! I've used the comforter as a sheet for a year, but much harder to wash and dry all the time, so should've just buckled down and bought sheets.

I'd kill for real sheets. The stuff here that passes for them here is more akin to gauze swabs.
