This is the second time she's listed it, and the time is almost up and still no bidders. I am not a pro ebay shopper by any means...can any of you give some constructive criticism on her listing? I really appreciate any help.

number one, it's a size 2xs. TINY. not many people are that small. larger sizes tend to sell better because they can be tailored to fit if need be.

secondly, because there is not a high demand for that size, I'd drop the price down to $50 if she really wants to move it.

if she really, really, wants to move it, start the bidding at $1 and see what the market is willing to pay.

Thanks, I passed that along. I know she paid about $150 for it. I was thinking Milly wasn't a brand that most people know or flock to, but you're right, it's a very small size.

personally, I love Milly, and have searched for it on ebay before.  I know it's not a cheap dress.  but, used, past season, and small size all drive the price down as the market is limited.

is there a high-end re-sale shop near her she might have better luck in?

Well, she just sold it for $70 so I guess our mojo worked.
