Wedding Dress.....

[QueenEsther]

Does anyone know anything about selling used wedding dresses? I am contemplating selling mine but only if I can get a decent price out of it - otherwise I will just save it in case my girls want to use it. Of course by then it will be outdated and they will probably want something more trendy - which is why I may sell it if the price is right, I just have no idea how much they run used.

Anyone got any suggestions??

Ebay. And it'll bring more money if your pics show your husband wearing it.

That is one of the funniest things I've read in a very long time! That guy should do stand up comedy.

I have looked into doing this but the lady here who buys & sells wedding dresses (out town isn't that big we only have one shop that does this that I know of) she never sells them over $700 - and that is for the really really nice ones, and I would only get 40% of what she sells it for - so I would get more money off of it by selling it myself but I hate going through the trouble of putting it online or in the paper. I don't know what to do, I don't even know what it is worth. It is only 7 years old and IMO it still looks pretty modern because at the time it was the newest style - it cost about $1200 w/veil and that was on sale.

Anyways....decisions,decisions........
