<span style="font-weight:bold;">Possible Pitfalls</span>

When buying any vintage clothing, sizing can be a problem. Sizes and their interpretations have change through the years and you may order the size you wear in today's clothes that may turn out not to be the right size at all.

Also, clothing may have rips, odors or stains that may be difficult or expensive to repair or remove and this should be considered in your final bidding price (how much you are willing to pay).

Some steps you can take to help ensure success should you decide to buy a vintage wedding dress on eBay:

---Deal with reputable sellers. Check the feedback of any seller by clicking on their name icon. A lot of negative feedback may be a signal that you should not trust that seller.

---Ask sellers for exact measurements of clothing. This can help to eliminate problems with matching a vintage size to today's sizes.

---Read descriptions of the dress carefully. Most sellers try to be very specific about any defects or problems with their items to keep their buyers happy. If you still have questions, feel free to e-mail the seller. Most sellers will get back to you soon to clarify any concerns.

Even if you decide not to buy a vintage wedding dress on <a href="http://ebay.com">eBay</a>, it is fun and romantic to look at the dresses and imagine what it may have been like to get married decades or centuries ago.  Enjoy.
