The best way to determine what your preowned or used wedding dress is worth is to start with a few factors: the designer, the age, the condition and the original price.
The more popular the designer/style, the more you can charge. The same goes for the age and condition.
Here are some guidelines we suggest:
• New with tags gowns should be priced starting at least 25% off of the original price. These are gowns that were ordered and never worn. They may not have even been tried on.
• New without tags wedding dresses should be priced at 30-50% off of the original price paid.
• Sample gowns can be sold anywhere from 100% of the sample price (assuming the dress wasn’t worn/altered and is truly still a sample).
• Used gowns (in excellent condition) should be priced starting at least 50% off of the original price. Extremely popular styles could start at 40% of the original price.
Other guidelines:
• Age of the gown is extremely important. The guidelines above are for gowns no more than 2 ½ years old. If your dress is older, your price should reflect it.
• If the dress has been discontinued, the price should reflect this.
• If the dress has stains, tears or other defects the price reduction should be in accordance with the imperfection.
• Dress alterations (such as adding a bustle) can add value to your gown since a buyer would have to pay additional for it at retail.
