Selling NEVER WORN Allure Bridals 9000 Gown
This dress is listed for $1780, but I would like to sell it (shipping included) for $1500. I need to get rid of it fast, so I can get a new dress before my wedding on July 6th!
I purchased this sample dress on March 15, 2014. Two days later, I realized it was the same exact dress a friend of mine had worn on March 8, 2014. When I purchased the dress the salesperson assured me that the dresses were different by pointing out the "obvious" differences in fabric, sleeves, neckline, etc. I, like an idiot, believed them and went ahead with buying this dress.
Once I found out the dresses were the same, there was no way I could wear it. The store I got the dress from has made no effort to work with me in this horrible situation, and because of budget issues, there is no way I can just take the loss and buy a new dress. I tried selling the dress to bridal shops where I live (5 hours from where I purchased the dress) and no one can give me more than $530 for it, which would mean taking an enormous loss on the dress. So as of right now, I have a dress I can't bring myself to wear, and no money to get a new one.
I am holding off on getting any alterations in hopes of selling it in time to get something new for my wedding, which is in just three months.
The dress is in great condition and has had no alterations. Tags are still on as you can see from the pictures. Since purchasing the dress, it has only been taken out of the bag once.
Price can be negotiated.
