Research the market. On online auctions, you can “watch” other sales which will give you a much better idea of what you can expect to spend. Take at least a couple of weeks to get a good idea of what these dresses are available for.
Set a budget. (Keep in mind that you may also have to purchase a veil, petticoat, shoes, and underwear as well.
You are likely to also have to get a professional fitting before the wedding. )#)
Have your measurements taken by a professional so that you will will have them available when you purchase your dress. Make sure that you a wearing the same type of bra that you’ll wear under your gown.
Research the seller. If you’re looking on an auction site, investigate seller’s feedback, make sure they’ve sold aniia brides dresses before, and make sure that the recipients of those gowns have been satisfied with their purchases.
Ensure that the dress will arrive will the required time to spare before your wedding.
Look at pictures from the front, back and side. (Keep in mind that the pictures for “new” dresses are in all probability rip-offs from big bridal dress designers, so don’t expect your dress to be identical)
Ask questions. Is the dress used? Is it made to fit your measurements?
Does it require a petticoat to be purchased separately? Can a veil be manufactured to match? Is it white or ivory? What material is it made of? What material is the outlining made of? Does it have a zipper, corset, or buttons to do it up?
Once you’ve chosen a gown you like, join the auction without breaking your allowance, or use the “buy now” option if you’re satisfied with the offered price.
When paying for any big item online, it’s best if you can pay using some kind of safe-trader system.
This is where you pay a safe-trader company the price of the item, the company advises the seller that you’ve paid and it’s paid to the seller once the item has been delivered. This is good for peace-of-mind.
11As soon as the dress arrives, research for any problems and have these sorted out with the seller ASAP. If the seller does not correct it herself, she may give you a gift or partially refund to cover the cost of having the work done.
