Selling My Wedding Dress

Actually, it's my wife's dress 
I was wondering if anyone had any advice about the best way to sell a wedding dress?
It's a beautiful ivory Benjamin Roberts dress (2012J), size 8-10. It's been drycleaned and is in great condition. We had an brilliant day and she looked amazing, but she doesn't see the point in hanging on to it.
How is she likley to get the best deal for it? Ebay? Somewhere else?
I think it cost about £750 before alterations. How much is she likley to get for it?
Any advice would be great
Thanks in advance
This is the dress btw:

This should give you a clue what they're selling for - http://www.ebay.co.uk/csc/i.html?_nkw=benjamin%20roberts%20dress&_dlg=1&_dmpt=UK_Wedding_Clothing&_ds=1&_sc=1&_sop=19&LH_PrefLoc=0&LH_Complete=1&_ftrt=901&_ftrv=1
Doesn't seem like a good time to sell, perhaps try in the spring? As for what you should expect - it depends how many alterations you've had done to it, how tall your wife is etc.0 -
Online you could always try Gumtree or Preloved where you can place an advert and see if you get any response. Gorgeous dress by the way!0
