Your Item Sold! | Next Steps
Wondering what happens when your item sells? We've got that covered below, but we'll also email everything you need to know.
Once you pay the initial fee to list your item, Nearly Newlywed will never ask you to enter your credit card details. We will also never ask you to give us your bank account username and password.
Key Things to Know:
You have 3 steps to complete within 9 days*
Each step has a 72-hour window, so be sure to stay on track to avoid a cancelled sale.
Your item may sell without the buyer reaching out first
This is completely normal, especially for well-detailed listings with great photos.
Double-check your listing details before moving forward!
Review your description (color, alterations, tag size, condition) and check out our Protecting Yourself with Pictures & Videos. If you notice anything that wasn’t disclosed, email us ASAP so we can assist.
NN securely processes buyer payments
We hold onto the funds until your item is successfully delivery. Learn more about seller payouts here.
Shipping & insurance are covered by the buyer
Sellers never pay for shipping or insurance—your buyer is charged a flat rate upon checkout.
We handle everything to make selling safe, simple, and stress-free. 😊 No invoice or sharing of personal details required!
Step 1 | Confirm Availability (72 Hours)
- When your item sells, you’ll receive an email asking you to confirm it’s still available. Simply click the confirmation link within 72 hours to proceed.
- Take a moment to inspect your item. If you discover anything that wasn’t disclosed (e.g., a small stain you missed), reach out to us ASAP, and we’ll help coordinate with your buyer.
You will receive an email that looks like this:
Step 2 | Get a Box & Upload Dimensions (72 Hours)
After confirming availability, you'll have another 72 hours to upload your box measurements.
Just click the link in our email and follow the instructions! We’ll also send you guidance on choosing the right box, protecting your gown with pictures/videos, and packing it securely.
Step 3 | Ship It
Once you’ve uploaded your box dimensions, you’ll have 72 hours to drop off your packaged item at your nearest UPS location.
Your prepaid, insured shipping label will be ready for you—just print it out, attach it to your package, and send it off!
Step 4 | Buyer Review Period
Once your buyer receives the package, they’ll have 72 hours to confirm the dress arrived as expected.
After that final approval (or once the review window closes), we’ll process your payment!
A Few Reminders:
✔️ Shipping and insurance are fully covered—no cost to you!
❌ Packing supplies & professional packing services are not reimbursed.
🚀 Stay on schedule—each step has a 72-hour window to keep things moving smoothly!
