my sister is trying to sell her wedding dress and has had no luck on the Internet. Has anyone successfully sold or bought one on eBay or somewhere else.... It's a fabulous dress which cost £7000! (more money than sense!) and clearly not looking for this kind of money would like to get something....it includes some swish shoes Emma something or other and veil and shrug....
She,s crap on Internet herself so I,m sure she hasn't fully explored diff avenues.....

Even incredibly expensive wedding dresses only go for a few hundred on Ebay.

I would also check where she bought it from - they might have a second hand section? Perhaps a dress agency - there's a few posho ones in London.

If you were going to sell it on Ebay she should put it on a featured listing so it appears right at the top - possibly with a decent reserve on it and have amazing and descriptive pictures.

I still think she'd be lucky to get 500-ish for it unless it was a decent size (14 or so) so that there was plenty of room to have it taken in/customised. If it's already a size 8 there will be a pretty limited market as there's not much material in it to customise it to fit the new owner.

Thanks for that think its a 10/12 - she has a big arse but no tits! so could be limited market - I think we should go on ebay given she's putting the shoes/veil etc in as well. I'll take a look on sell my weedding dress too

thanks for that
