What should be checked before accepting a bridal sale marked final or non-returnable?

Direct answer

Check exactly what final sale excludes and inspect the item before paying; do not assume it settles every issue involving defects or misdescription.

Ask for the return policy, alteration costs and any defect-reporting process in writing. Confirm whether the garment is a sample, damaged, incomplete or custom-made. Keep the advertised description and receipt. Rights depend on the applicable local law and facts, so a seller's label and a foreign consumer guide should not be treated as a complete statement of Pakistani refund rights.
