Thread: Resale on Butterflies?

I'm thinking of ordering a costume with the Pharaonics guarantee as a graduation present for myself but to be honest I'm not sure how much I'll get to wear it after I move back home (another aspect of graduation).

I love the butterfly costumes and the only way I'll get one in my size is by custom ordering.

So the real question, do these costumes have a high resale? Will I spend $700 and only be able to sell it for $250?

They are a beautiful and popular style so I'd imagine the resale value would be pretty good if you are taking good care of the costume. It also depends on your size and how many of your Bhuz body doubles are in the market for costumes in the high end price range.

From what I have seen Bellas have the best resale values.

The butterflies are popular but great loops are more popular. A great loop with a skirt/sleeve/accessory set would be about the same price but would be easier to sell IMO. Among other reasons, because the bedlah could be sold with or separate from the skirt set.

Personally, I would not buy a butterfly set (new or used) because they are multi colored and multi-colored looks busy and cluttered on me.
