So I have determined that I need some new bras. My fave one is from Natori, and I cannot see it anymore online at Nordstrom.com. I even went to the Rack where I have seen the exact bra style # before, and they didn't have any in my size today.
I did go online on eBay to see if there are any with that specific style # (only new with tags), but a part of me is worried about buying bras there- I keep thinking what if they don't fit? But on the flip side, I am getting it in my exact size and style # as the one I currently wear so it should be ok, right?

I would check Bare Necessities, Fig Leaves, and Amazon before ebay. Many ebay sellers get seconds on things like that and typically seconds of bras are the wrong dimensions. I've bought Enell sports bras there as factory seconds, but the seller disclosed exact measurements for the bra and I was able to match my measurements to their measurements. I've bought "new" boots from another seller and the calf circumference was over an inch off on each boot and did not fit. I knew this beacuse I ordered the boots at full price from Zappos (where they fit perfctly) and returned them when I found what was advertised as the exact same boots for 50% off on ebay. they claimed the boots were not seconds and I was wrong. I threatened to dispute and they gave me a refund. I'd trust Amazon before ebay.
I'd check with Nordstrom to see if they released something similar under a new name too. They are so knowledgeable that they should know if it's gone or just under a new name/number.

Thanks so much for all your help! I did call Nordstrom and they no longer carry that specific style # from Natori, but I was able to find it online at herroom.com. I have ordered there before with no issues.
I had no idea about factory seconds on eBay, but they is a great point. I feel like bras are such a personal fit, so won wowing I can return them if they don't fit well makes me feel better. Especially at $60-$70 per bra, i want int to be comfy and fit well.
Thanks again for everyone's recommendations and suggestions!
