Has anyone bought or sold a wedding dress from the website I Do Gowns or Smart Bride? I am finally getting around to selling my dress (after 2 years :redface: )and would prefer not to do it on Ebay.
Any thoughts/experiences much appreciated :)

We have a guest staying with us at the moment who has bought and sold online. I can't remember what site she used, but will ask when she gets home. She was incredibly happy with it.
Not sure about websites, but have you thought about seeing if a bridal store near you will sell it on consignment?
Thanks Ladies.
Audax - were you able to get the name of the site by any chance? No probs if not :)
UntoldAngel - There is a store nearby that does that, but I was looking into the online ones as they don't charge a commission unlike the stores. They only charge a listing fee which is significantly less than commission.
Not yet! Friend buggered off to Noosa for a couple of days. Typical! Due back today - I haven't forgotten you, and will advise.
I sold mine through I do gowns, ended up being to a girl who was getting married the same weekend that we did and it was her dream dress. Seemed like fate!! Was very happy with the website and avoided a heap of fees on eBay as it sold for $800.
Half her luck! No probs, thanks hun x:
Wow, that's good to hear! Did it take long to sell? I was just reading some testimonials on that site, and it varied from like 2 days to a year!:
From memory it took about a month, now is a great time to do it with all the weddings coming up.
Ok, you've convinced me!:
Was I Do Gowns.
She found hers within 2 weeks of looking, flew to Sydney to pick it up, and then re sold it for only $200 less, took about 4 weeks to sell.
Thanks Audax, great to hear yet another glowing recommendation about I do Gowns! I listed mine on there last night, so fingers crossed it sells. I keep checking my emails to see if I have any queries yet, lol, impatient much?!
Thanks for everyones help, much appreciated :)
