How To Buy Used Wedding Gowns On eBay

A popular source for used wedding gowns is eBay.com

You will find just about any size, color, and designer listed on the site. This is a way to find a designers wedding dress at a very affordable price.

eBay wedding gowns can be pre-owned wedding dresses or they could be new gowns.

Some of the new gowns come from bridal shop owners who want to sell some of their stock online.

Over the years, I have had several brides buy used wedding gowns on eBay!

One bride I worked with, brought "three dresses. She couldn't decide which style she liked best. So she brought in all three, so that I could help her decide which one was best for her.

What did she do with the "two dresses" she didn't wear?

She put them back on eBay to sell. And guess what? After the dress she wore on her wedding day was placed back on eBay also.
