I have seen some beautiful bridesmaid dresses on ebay however I have been warned against buying wedding stuff from ebay but these ones are so beautiful in the picture. Has anyone else bought bridesmaid dresses from ebay and were they a success?

Just be careful with sizing x i got brought mine for my brothers wedding and was such a small fitting even though was my size... cleavage was horrific!

All of mine were bought off ebay. Had to cancel the wedding due to covid but really impressed with them. the blue ones have had slight alterations but still cheaper than paying bridal shop costs

If they come from China and are super cheap, be wary of sizing. A reputable shop on Ebay, then no problem.

I had a nightmare with efffin light in the box ... the gorgeous sheer lace top with flowing train was hideous and it went straight to charity but that was just me 🥰

I got some from eBay and some from wish. I was sceptical but they are all absolutely stunning and the wish ones came from China! (Hence being wary as you hear so many horror stories!)

Bought one just to test the waters. I had checked the reviews of the seller and all where fine.

Came and it was shocking.

Went back on the reviews but they were all for non dress items like plastic or little battery powered things.

Check the reviews of the dress and the seller

I got my bridesmaid dresses from ebay and love them .. havent been worn yet due to postponing but great dresses x

I bought some. I didn’t use them as they weren’t was I looking for but I was really impressed by the quality. I guess it’s a gamble tho as so many different sellers in one place

Buy big as they tend to come up small......you can have them made smaller but bigger is a bit more tricky. And buy one before you commit.

Mine were bought off ebay , absolutely loved them

UKbride Member 11 Dec 2020

I bought two, both of them were great quality and super pretty. It's a hit or a miss sometimes.

I brought mine on Amazon and they are amazing

UKbride Member 11 Dec 2020

We got ours from Ever Pretty. Gorgeous dresses and really cheap! They give you a discount off your first order too! X

I tried ebay and had to send back as sizes were extremely small. I also tried another place online and sent them back too. I eventually got mine from quiz in meadowhall and were absolutely fantastic and in sale x

UKbride Member 11 Dec 2020

Check EverPretty on Amazon. Beautiful quality

UKbride Member 11 Dec 2020

Bridesmaid dresses were perfect but flower girl dress was awful, think it's just hit and miss x

UKbride Member 11 Dec 2020

I did and they was as described and I was happy with them and so was my maids, I also got a second dress from ebay, brand new still with tags and again was as described by the seller (was a personal sale on the second dress not from a company) its hit and miss i suppose

UKbride Member 12 Dec 2020

Yes I did! Was fine x

UKbride Member 12 Dec 2020

If something looks too good to be true. Reverse image search it. You'll soon find out if they're legitimate or scams

Got my whole 16 bridesmaids dresses off eBay they were lovely dresses x

UKbride Member 12 Dec 2020

I got my wedding dress from eBay, I thought it would not fit or be very nice and worried as I only had 3 weeks for it to arrive and then get cleaned. I was very surprised. It fitted and was nice too.

UKbride Member 15 Dec 2020

I had mine from ebay and.it was from china i found satin looked and fit cheap but chiffon.was great.. had no issues ordered made to measure and only alterations needed was length on 3 due to us over compensating on measurements.. do you research on review make sure they are about the dresses and not other products they by but me personally had equally as nice dresses as shop bought x

It's really impossible to generalise about purchases from ebay as the backgrounds of sellers are all so different. Do your homework, check other feedback, ask the seller questions, be sure of what their policies are. There are some really good purchases to be had on ebay as long as you are careful.
