Price is surely one of the most important aspect in selling second hand wedding dresses. All brides wanting to sell their bridal gown online would wonder how much does the dress still worth. Although we would like you to earn the most out of your dress, however, we suggest sticking to these general rules:
- For a preloved wedding dress that has been worn once, and it is less than 2 years old, we suggest selling at around 50% off the purchased price. The older the dress, the less the value of the dress will be.
- For a sample wedding dress and has been worn, AND it is less than 2 years old, we advice to put the price discounted at approximately 50% off as well. And of course, the older the dress, the less profit you should expect to make.
- For a never-been-worn wedding dress with age of less than 2 years old, we suggest of giving a discount of 25%. For older dresses, consider giving a 35-50% off discount to the buyer.
In addition, there should be several factors that need to be considered when determining the value of the dress. If the dress has more a bit of stain or small imperfections, the price should also be lowered accordingly. However, alterations you have made to the dress may affect the price at both directions, depending on the buyer. Adding extra ornaments might add value to the dress, but it might not suit the buyer’s preference and she would need to pay extra to get it removed.
Should your dress not getting many enquiries as you have wished for, you should consider lowering the price further. This, more often than not, will attract more buyers to contact you and you should be able to negotiate with them. Once again, we wish you all the best in selling your preloved wedding dress.
