my ebay (china) dress! NOW WITH FLASH!!

sammi23, 5 August, 2011 at 14:35 Posted on Planning 0 29

Well i got my dress in febuary and after many many horror stories i decided not to try it on i didnt even open it didnt want to be as devasted as others, and hoped to find funds for another one!

Anyway mum managed to talk me round to at least looking at it (she opened it) and.................i love it! ended up trying it on this morning and didnt want to take it off!

when i find out how to flash i will do!

any more nice stories with china/ebay?xx

    If you save the pic onto your computer then start a reply to this thread, click on the icon above the draft of your post that looks like a bit of film reel with a + sign on and you can browse for the photo on your computer.

    Glad the ebay dress turned out so well! Looking forward to your flash ?

    This to me sounds odd... why would you search for more money without even looking at it???

    But... glad you are pleased!

    Omg i was the same, ordered my perfect wedding dress online and it sat in the corner of the lounge unopened for days cos i didn't want to be disappointed, even started looking again at wedding dresses "just incase" and when i finally opened it i loved it and perfect fit...so you're not alone Smiley smile

    Wish I could say the same - I unfortunately got stung by a chinese wedding dress company (to be fair I thought they were english at the time of ordering it!) but glad to hear you go what you wanted... Lets see a flash then!

    It looks lovely!

    I am also the happy owner of a bargain dress I bought from a chinese seller on ebay on a whim. I thought if mine turned out to be rubbish I wouldn't have lost much (paid £62! plus £19 for the underskirt). It was 'off the peg' so I didn't need to measure and I made sure it was corset back.

    When it came about 10 days later (albeit minus the underskirt) the package was really small. I didn't think there was any way on earth they could fit a dress in there. I felt almost sick opening it but like I said I wouldn't have lost much. It is exactly the same dress it was supposed to be 'copying'. It must be made in the same factory and it is gorgeous!

    I did have a day with MIL2B and mum trying on dresses but started the day trying on mine to show them and both said they didn't see another all day that looked as good on me as mine. The quality is fantastic!

    I still buzz about the fact I paid £62 for my dress! Its good to see someone else is happy with theirs too Smiley smile

    Glad you're happy with it. xxx It looks really nice.

    I got my original dress from a chinese seller on ebay too, paid just under £30, and was chuffed with it.

    We decided to change our plans, so won't be wearing it, but i'm very happy with it.

    They do all tend to be copies. You look like you have a lovely dress there though hun. Just looked at the photos again.... Out of interest, have you done the corset up from the bottom so you tie the knot/bow at the top?

    Would it be cheeky of me to ask for the ebay site where you got the dress from? I'd really like to order my dress from the same place as you.......your dress looks lovely! Just been on e-bay and there's loads of 'china dress companies' I don't want to pick the wrong one and get a bum deal! xx

    Wow, seems I find the right group, i got the similar question as you.

    I am going to get marry soon, planing a wedding and Honeymoon are so tired, I am totally stress out.
    Would you tell me where is the best place for Honeymoon in Sep, how to save money, how to have fun.

    PS: I want to look sexy during Honeymoon, do you think the following dress is cute and sexy enough?

    1. Rose short dress (I love the color)

    2. sexy dress (this is my favorite brand)

    Just so you are aware, www.karenmillendressesuk.com is nothing to do with Karen Millen. They make shoddy copies.
