Mistyhon Posted April 7, 2016 #1 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Anybody have a good suggestion? Perhaps an online group link to where I can sell some previously loved gowns? They're taking up a lot of space and I'm not going to wear them again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iheartbda Posted April 7, 2016 #2 Share Posted April 7, 2016 There are sites out there, you just have Google resale. Ladies around here offer them to others for just the cost of shipping.;):) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthernLite Posted April 7, 2016 #3 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Depending on styles being classic or current you might check if a local group does dresses for proms for those who otherwise couldn't afford them. You might get a bigger tax write off then you would make on resale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kamloops50 Posted April 7, 2016 #4 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Local consignment is probably the safest . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor_Sally Posted April 7, 2016 #5 Share Posted April 7, 2016 You could sell them on ebay but whatever you think they are worth is not what they will sell for . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CateW Posted April 7, 2016 #6 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Another good one is Tradesy.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolatravelgirl Posted April 7, 2016 #7 Share Posted April 7, 2016 It won't be worth it unless it is really a designer gown. If it is your typical dresses bought at JCP, Sears, Macys, etc then it won't sell for much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplelife Posted June 14, 2016 #9 Share Posted June 14, 2016 I also have sold on eBay for several years. Before listing with them search fprices for sold items to get an idea what to list for. When searching, be sure to check "pre-owned" and "sold listings" only (that way you eliminate those that listed at too high a price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
collegegirl92 Posted June 14, 2016 #10 Share Posted June 14, 2016 If you have a Facebook account, most cities someone has set up a Buy/Sell/Trade page. You may want to try and sell them then. Also, depending on what age demographic they could work for try selling around November-early Decemeber or March-May for Winter Formals and Proms.

OCruisers Posted June 15, 2016 #11 Share Posted June 15, 2016 If they are in truly "gently used" condition and still in style, a NICE local consignment store would be a good option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkudzu Posted June 15, 2016 #12 Share Posted June 15, 2016 I work in an upscale consignment shop in my town. (My retirement job that supports my mani/pedi habit) I'm sure they would love to try and sell your gowns/dresses for you. Check out some shops and find the one that suits you. Like most things--they are all not the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuzah Posted June 16, 2016 #14 Share Posted June 16, 2016 I use FB for selling any previously used dresses. FB is a good platform for selling used dresses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
