ive seen the first one before and i liked it, but the bridesmaids didnt.
i think the second one is too low cut.
and im not too keen on the last one(maybe its the woman whos wearing it).
Thanks Franny, im trying to keep looking too.

She has three of these, a 10, 14 and 16, she may be willing to do a deal for two. The 14 could be taken into a 12?

i saw these and liked them, i just need to show them to my bridesmaids first of all. well done franny.

these have a reserve of £80 each but im going to try and knock it down if i buy both.

This may be not 'dressy' enough?

As they have no bids, and TBH £80 as a reserve is very high, I would see if she would take an offer. I'd be cheeky and offer £90 for the two and see what reaction you get!

The second one is more of a prom dress, and I think the last one is a terrible picture!

ive offered £120 for the 2.
just want to get back to the feeling of having everything sorted.
shes going to get back to me on thursday(prob to see if she gets any bids!)
thanks for your help,youre great!

That a very fair price, she'd be silly not to take it. But probably waiting to see what bids crop up (there will be few if any and low too! But thats Ebay for you!!)

As a back up, this site does great copies of 'famous' dresses and this Victoria Beckham copy is a silly £18 and you could add detail such as a sash!!

im going to have a look around that site, looks very interesting.
i love a bargain, £120 is double what got my 2 current dresses for and they were brand new!
ive also been looking at black 1950s style dresses which i might like for the bmaids, if you know of any good site to look on?
