Buying online

[taniableu]

Have any Australians here ordered their dresses from an online store based in the US? I found and tried on the dress I want - it's gorgeous, but it's going to cost more than three times compared to what houseofbrides.com or flaresbridal.com are asking.

I'm worried about my order being wrong or taking too long to arrive. What would lj do? Order online or suck it up and pay the Australian price?
