that might fit, and is unreturnable or wait til after the sale and buy it (or another color) and return it if it doesnt fit. I would save $16.xx on sale.

The saving might be $16, but for me it would depend on the actual price. ($116 down to $100. Nope. $20 down to $4? Absolutely!)😄

The only way I would buy a non-returnable bra is if it's a brand where I know my size. Also, what is the price? As Lesley pointed out, a $100 bra that doesn't fit and can't return would be worse than a $4 bra.

Nope! The only bras I buy online are the ones I currently wear.

$65 regular price, and $48.75 on sale. I have one in same style, but think I could use a band size up.

Only if it is a brand you wear and know it would fit.

I would check the measurements online. Going up a band size and keeping the same cup size might result in the cup being too big. Might need to go down a cup but up a band, depending how your current one fits.

I would not by a random untried brand and-or model.... because not all bra's have same "lift" (up where they belong) and "in" (side support - pushed in...with no side spillage and overflow).
I could try on various models of 20 brands and one will be perfect, two or three "might do" if I can't find perfect, and the rest are a no.

I would first go to a store and get fitted so I knew my correct bra size.
For YEARS I thought I was a 34B. But my bras no longer fit quite tight. And went and got fitted turns out I’m a 32D…

And went and got fitted turns out I’m a 32D… But as usual with women’s clothing items, sizes are not consistent across brands. It should be since it’s literally based on measurements. So frustrating! Sizing can even vary across colors of the same style and styles of the same brand. When trying a new one, I always make sure it’s exchangeable. |

bra sizing is tricky. if i already owned that exact model and knew the fit would be good, i would buy it on sale. if i was just guessing that the size would fit the same as another bra from a different maker, i might not.

I certainly have, as my size is rather hard to find. If it doesn't work and it wasn't too expensive, I donate it to an organization here that helps homeless and abused women.

I decided against ordering it on sale. Thanks for your help.
