Selling Your Dress

How do you choose which wedding website to advertise your dress on?
Think about the following question
...

When you bought your wedding dress did you try on several before choosing 'the one?'
IF the answer is  YES, then you've found the right place to sell your dress , as we differ from most other 'Selling your wedding dress websites '   in that we offer the option to stock your dress for brides to try on!
So let us do the work for you!

Most other websites merely list hundreds of dresses for sale (this may look impressive but do you ever wonder how many of these ever get sold?) -its also it's easy for your dress to get lost amongst  all the other dresses on-line. And unless a bride-to-be knows exactly what they want (which is rare) this is  not an effective way to sell your dress. Brides want to try before they buy and often will not find their dream dress by wading through countless adverts.
SWOON store dresses in their bridal boutique for brides to try and buy, hence your dress will be seen by many more brides -as dresses are viewable on-line but also in our studio! Very often we guide brides towards trying dresses they haven't even considered, and often end up with a sale -this is why it is so much more realistic to achieve a sale by placing your dress with SWOON.
And also, very  importantly, you are also more likely to get a better price for your dress this way.
We will advertise your dress for 6 months, just like other sites (minimum charge applies). Your dress will then be displayed on our website during this time (just like other websites)and depending on which option you choose, SWOON will market and sell your  dress for you!
Alternatively  you can sell it via our website advertising only...............it really couldn't be simpler!
For further details on how to sell your dress please see below;
Option A
For just £15  your dress will be advertised for 6 months* and with this option we do the work for you! We photograph, market and advertise your dress and have it available cream_rose.jpgin our boutique so that our brides to be can come and try it on.This is usually a much more likely way for you to sell your dress as most people want to try on several wedding dresses before making a decision. Dresses are stored with the utmost care and are fully insured whilst in our care (more details available on request)
On completion of sale you receive the sale amount minus our commission fee,currently at a competitive rate of 40%. All you need to do is make arrangements to get  your  clean dress to us.If you haven't had time to get your dress cleaned we also offer a  very competitively priced cleaning service,please ask us for further details and prices.
We are market leaders with an established name within the Bridal Industry for selling Designer Samples and Once Worn Bridalwear.We have a High Street Boutique in the heart of Surrey, with easy access from central London and also have a prominent genre specific website. Fees are therefore non-negiotiable.
PLEASE NOTE; In order to keep our stock up to date we do not take dresses that are more than 3 years old.
* If your gown does not sell after 6 months we will review the situation and either agree to extend the period that we keep your dress for, or you will be asked to collect it.

You advertise your dress for sale on our website for a charge of just £15 .This payment covers your advertisement for 6 months. This works on  a private sale basis where you provide photos of your dress and a contact number which we will display on our website but you  arrange the sale independently of SWOON.
Using our website to advertise your dress is a great way to try to sell it as we receive many visits to our site on a daily basis for anyone searching under various categories regarding wedding dresses,and at £15 for 6 months we are very competitively priced.SWOON recommend taking cash as payment for private transactions -never accept a cheque unless you allow time for the payment to clear before releasing your dress.
