    Then give her the money back - you've had it for 9 months. Better still draft a sale agreement that says you're entitled to keep 1 month if the contract isn't completed.

    If course we all know this is moot - the OP wanted to sell the dress now and possibly get paid in 10 months. Probably longer than the marriage will last.

    I suspect OP would like to sell it ASAP not wait for months.

    Utter rubbish. You don't need a license as a private individual selling something to someone on chuckie.

    It seems that 2 of us disagree with that, so rather than saying "utter rubbish" perhaps you could point towards the part of consumer credit legislation that supports your point?

    You don't need a CCL to allow someone to pay for something monthly as a private sale.

    You do if the buyer does not pay, and you need to use the courts to get your money back.

    Which is what I said originally if you had bothered to quote/read to the end mr Tarambor.........
