Fees - what is included?

When you list your dress with Dance Again, you don't just pay your money and then get forgotten about.

So what do you get for your listing fee?

I will do everything possible to help you find a buyer. My famous service starts as soon as you make contact with me. If you aren't sure what to do, please just email your questions. No matter how silly you think your question is, I will always take the time to answer every email I receive.

Photos- If you need help emailing a photo with your dress description, let me know. I will email as many instructions as you need to get your photo attached to an email. If you don't have a digital or scanned photo, you can also send me a "normal" photo and I will scan it for you - no extra charge.

I will also ensure that your dress photo looks as good as it can. Using Photoshop, I will crop out backgrounds and childrens' faces, resize it to fit the website, lighten a too dark photo etc. in short I will do everything I can to make your dress look the best it possibly can. All you need to do is send me your photo, you don't need to worry about file size, dpi or pixels!

PayPal- Not sure about PayPal? let me put your mind at rest. I have been using PayPal now for almost five years and have never had a problem, it is very safe and secure to use, much more secure than sending your bank account or credit card details in an email. PayPal is also recommended by e-bay as the best way to pay for worldwide online auction purchases. If you have any trouble with PayPal as far as opening an account or paying your listing fee, just let me know and I will help you out. If you aren't sure about accepting payment for your dress through paypal, contact me and I will tell you how it all works.

Dress Description- Got your dress details but not sure how to word your ad? just send it all to me and I will write something up for you, no problem!

Dress Measurements- Not sure how to measure your dress, I will give you hints on how to get it as right as possible. Do you only have a tape measure with centimetres? No problem, I can convert your measurements to inches for you.

Ad Duration- How long will your dress stay listed on the site? Some sites set a limit of three months but not Dance Again. Once your dress is listed it stays there until it is sold. No need to pay for an extended ad, no need to re-list after a certain time, you list your dress once and that's all you have to do.

Ad Changes- Once your dress is listed, you can make as many free changes as you like, just email me. Many sellers list their dress and then wish to change their description, alter measurements or price even put up a different photo. This is not a problem, just email any changes to me along with your dress number and I will fix up your ad to your requirements. There is no limit to the number of times you can adjust your ad and there is no extra charge.

Ad Exposure- There really is no better place to advertise than Dance Again, with over 2 million visitors to the site, your dress will be seen by more people than you could ever hope for. After more than three years of listing dresses for free, Dance Again has gained the respect of the Irish dancing community and is usually the first place people look when wanting to buy a used dress. There is also a growing number of dressmakers who use Dance Again as their main source of advertising for brand new off the rack dresses. This high turnover keeps people comming back year after year.

Dance Again is also advertised in Irish Dancing Magazine and has hundreds of links on vendors, schools and dancers websites. Dance Again also comes up top of the list in Google, the worlds most popular search engine. Type in Irish dance dress or used Irish dance dress and see that anyone doing a similar search will get Dance Again as their first choice to click.

Communicating with Buyers- usually buyers will ask all of the normal questions, such as condition, measurements etc and you should be easily able to help them out. If however they ask a question that you are not sure about, such as international payment or shipping, paypal etc just email me and I will help you out. I have been asked just about every question you could think of, so will usually have an answer for you. If I don't happen to know the answer, I will find out so we both know!

Disputes- Thankfully 99.9% of dress sales go through wihout a hitch. It does happen that on occassion there might be a problem between the seller and buyer. I will always be on hand to act as a go between and mediate a positive outcome. You are not alone if there is a problem. Most problems occur due to mis-communication and can usually be sorted out quickly. You will not be told to "sort it out yourself" by me. I will always do my absolute best to help under any circumstances.

Dedication- I am 100% dedicated to doing my best to make Dance Again the best source for dancers, their families, teachers and dressmakers to buy and sell new and used Irish dance costumes. Dance Again is my full time job, not just a hobby or something I do in my spare time. I have time for you, I have time to help you.

I am the mother of two Irish dancers, one not so competative and the other totally addicted! I have been in your shoes, I have bought and sold dresses for my own daughters and I can help you too. If there is anything that you think I have left off this list, please just email me and ask. I am happy to help.
