Wedding Dress.....

[AmazingGrace]

You will probably do better to put it online if you are expecting to get a lot out of it... I sold mine at a consignment store in Dallas, the nicest store we had which delt in wedding dresses all the time and what she does is go by the list price and then if it is more than a yr old and has been worn... it is half of that price to list and I got 40% she said you will not find one anywhere in the country that will give you more than that... and after all the ones I called I think she was right LOL...

Mine was 1400 and I ended up with 500 out of it and again that was in an area with a very large market... They also say if it is not a size 10-14 then it will probably be marked down about another 100 or so as they also price them by most common sizes.... soooooooooo thats just my take on what happened

Or you could donate it to help support Brides Against Breast Cancer.
