I think it's pretty safe to buy garters from ebay sellers...I bought mine from 3 diferent sellers and they were perfect.

I also bought my ring bearer pillow from ebay...also came out exactly as I had expected (again, you really can't go wrong on this type of item since the pillow itself isn't that much different from its photo, and the seller should provide the domensions of the pillow)

I bought 2 flower-girl baskets from ebay...they were a bit smaller than I had expected, but they're ok. Luckily I spent ~$16 for both of them which I don't consider a huge amount of money, so I may end up getting something else if I find it.

I buy off of ebay alot, mostly for presents for FH...I buy his original movie posters or over seas dvds for him., Its all about checking the ratings...I check all of them - esp the negatives, sometimes a seller can be scum...or the buyer was just cranky over something dumb. You can always message a seller with questions, and I always ask what happens if i dont like it. Ive been offered a photo proof of what was being made for me, and I have returned only 2 things (the seller claimed they were real when I got them they were reproductions) and I contacted ebay and disputed the seller and it was resolved, Alot of sellers, esp ones that have stores, will work with you bc they dont not want to be repremanded by Ebay.

I love ebay!

Ebay is a great place to snag a deal. I always ask the seller questions if I have time before I have to bid! Most give measurements or some other kind of detail in addition to photos. Some even honor returns within 30 days. I have had pretty good luck with quality.

I got my veil, garter set, and cell phone charms from ebay. I've never had a problem with anythign I've bought from ebay, but you have to really read what you are getting...not just look at the pictures, and also read the reviews.

Re: Buying Wedding Items off Ebay?

I got my garters from EBAY. I never ever used ebay before, but so many girls had ordered from vendors on there, I decided to try it. It was a great experience. I'm looking for more stuff!! I'll see if I can find the vendor and post it.

no not really. i always look at the sellers rating and always pay thru paypal so if something does happen i can always dispute it. i have maybe bought over 100 things on ebay and have only had a problem twice.
