Selling your Dress

M1ssJ

How many of you are planning to do this?

I thought about doing it. I still might. I'm not going to do anything with it after that one day, I will still have my pictures to remember exactly how it looked. And my daughter will probably want to buy her own dress, so why save it for that then get my feelings hurt when she doesn't want it.

I am selling mine. Listed it on preownedweddinggowns.com but so far, no bites. I am about to try craigslist. Just wanted to wait until after our honeymoon. Now that we're back, I am ready to clean out the guest room.

I want to have mine turned into a Christening gown once we have babies.

I'm going to auction mine and donate the proceeds to a foundation here that gives dream weddings to brides who are terminally ill.

I posted my impulse buy dress on oncewed.com and recycledbride.com, it took be about 3 or 4 months to get a buyer. I had some interest in the dress but ppl were offering me like half my selling price for a brand new dress. I posted to craigslist also but the listings expire after 7 days

hmmm, ok, I'm thinking about buying a pre owned dress but I NEVER see ladies post their stuff on this board for sale, call me crazy but I'd rather buy it from one of you gals than an absolute stranger (like I know you like that lol). Hope when you huys sell you post a pic in here and give your AAW sisters a heads up

I agree with M1ssj if any of you ladies do sell your dress post it on here first.  I am looking right now for my dress on the recycle website.  I haven't found it yet.  If any of you have the Mori Lee 3078 style in size 16-22 I would love to take it off your hands.

I have not decided yet.  I bought my dress from preowned wedding website brand new. The bride changed her mind and bought another dress.

Technically, we aren't <em>supposed </em>to post stuff for sale on this board. We're <em>supposed </em>to post it on the Classifieds board or Trash to Treasure board. One of the STUPID TK "rules". UGH!

I am thinking about selling it, but I am also thinking of shortening it and using it as a cocktail or "go out" dress.

I found my exact dress on oncewed.com but idk if it'll still be avaliable for me when I'm ready for it... but I do plan on selling my dress - like pp said why save it for a daughter who's gonna have her own taste and style and end up with my feelings hurt.
