Wedding Dresses - where to sell them?

Options
Hi, as the title says (and apologies if I'm not allowed to ask this) but in a moment of madness myself and a couple of friends bought a clearance lot of Pronovias and LaSposa dresses. We don't have a shop, so just wanted advice on where the best place to advertise them for sale is? They're ex display and sample dresses, and we just want to sell them on and make a small profit. I appreciate a lot of people seem to be looking at China for dresses, so not sure we have much chance of advertising them - but any advice welcomed (and apologies to the MSE team if this seems like a sales pitch).

    Depends how cheap you managed to buy them really. If you got them dead cheap then the normal places like ebay, preloved & Gumtree would be fine but if you need to sell them higher then I don't know-sorry!

  • I don;t know if this helps you but I run a shop in Essex and we sell on dresses like a dress agency. So we sell wedding and prom gowns on for other ladies to enjoy!

    I would say to think about selling on Preloved or look at wedding forum sites, a lot of them have for sale sections.
