Subject Author Date Ii think you would probably be better off spending your money on a 2nd hand dress rather than risk looking like you "went cheap" and therefore have less resale value. (NT) .

I'm not saying this is the case here, but I've been there at least one time too often already. Time to make a stone of that soft heart of mine ... (NT) -- My prices are reasonable, but fixed. No haggling, Monday, June 22, 01:31:06pm Please all see my apology above...We have time before we need a dress so saving will be our goal.
