Would you buy a Communion Dress off Ebay??

Found a really nice one - sizes match and all and really cheap and cute.

But would you really buy off ebay is the question??Any advice.

Thanks

I bought my wedding dress off ebay so I would say yes

Obviously make sure you do your homework and that that seller is legit....some are scammers sadly but once they have a good record and you can see photos I would be okay I think.

Lots of people are selling off communion outfits now to raise a few bob and Ebay is as good a place as any...

Why not? If its what you want and the seller is ok? Is your concern with ebay itself or that the dress might look cheap or be secondhand?

Well its marked new so...hopefully but dont want it to look out of place - really....have bought off ebay and with no problems just with a dress for such a special day......just not sure

Wouldn't think twice about it. I just can't see a good reason why not if it's in perfect condition. You can put some of the money you saved towards making the day even more special.

Absolutely. I know where you're coming from - and you want to make sure the little girl gets the best - but if you see a lovely dress that would really look nice, you'd be mad not to get it!

Like has already been said, do your background checks on the seller's history / feedback - but you're going to all this trouble to get a lovely dress for the occasion, and there's no reason to spend an extortionate amount in a shop when you could get better for cheaper.

Hope you have a lovely day when it comes around!! :)

i bought my wedding dress on ebay and once the seller feedback is good you should be safe enough.
i bought from a guy who makes them in china, it was perfect and since i sent off the sizes it was a perfect fit.

Absolutely - I'd have no problem selling it on ebay afterwards too.

Yes, i got my daughters bridesmaid dress off ebay, however its really hard to know what quality the material is. I was slightly disapointed in the material but it looked great.

I bought a dress for my daughters communion off ebay and I hated it. It looked nothing like the pics. It was thin and wrinkled/raggy and the fabric felt cheap. I nearly cried when I saw it:(. I returned it to the seller and was given a refund thank god but I had to pay return shipping.
