Ebay Wedding Dresses

*Big Sigh* Hffffffffffffffffffff

Well the dress is in my possession. I have contacted my 'back-up' dress lady to see if she is still willing to sell hers as I want that instead of this.

It's 'ok', the neckline has been changed to what it was meant to be, there are beads instead of embroidery but she said it would be glass beads and rhinestones this time, but it's just clear beads. I was told the bust would be covered in tiny beads with no spaces, but they are well spaced. It does look not too bad, it's better made than last time for sure, but now the detail on the hip is missing! It's still too large despite her checking the measurements after it was too big last time, but this could be adjusted if needed. And she didn't send me the right petticoat either that I was meant to get.

Will try and put some pics on, you can see it is better but still not quite what I asked for. Am going to ask for a refund for the petticoat, I ordered a 2 hoop and paid £20 for that, but didn't get it. Not sure what to do about the dress itself, part of what I liked of the design was the detail on the hip, it was there on the first dress but not on the replacement.

has anyone bought off

huizhou-antiques ??

That's who I bought mine off, just wondered if there's any reports on the quality etc?
Their feedback all seems positive so I optimistic, it's just worrying buying from china when there's no one to trust, if you know what I mean.

Never heard of them tbh, but I personally wouldn't have ordered from them with only 3 feedbacks from recent activity, nothing since 2005. Mind you, how much did you pay? If it was very little then it's worth a chance i guess. If it was around the same price you'd have paid for something from asapbay or millie bridal, then I'd have gone with them as you can see their vast positive feedback and have seen happy customers on various forums.

Was pretty cheap, and my brother paid for it lol so might be worth the chance. I'll keep you up to date anyway lol

sorry to hear you are still not happy honeypop. at least you have a backup. i am getting married next year and planning to get one of these dresses and if they look as good as the pics that have been posted i will be delighted. i cannot afford a 1k designer dress but if i can get an almost version for 100 quid including shipping i will be ecstatic.

Aww, Honeypop. I'm sorry to hear that your dress is still not what you'd hoped for.

I'm really not looking forward to this buying dresses lark...
