If you have any concerns after receiving your order, please contact our customer service team. They will be happy to assist you. Thanks.
I can say my experience has been the same. It's a scheme they should tell you what your payout will be before agreeing. I sent a $800 brand new 6 week old Sachin and Babi gown tags attached and still on website full price. They wanted to sell it was $160 and i would get 10% F that!

Hello, Thank you for reaching out. We would be happy to clarify! The RealReal operates out of two different warehouse so, items will not always be shipped in the same package. However, we can confirm any orders that are international get shipped with a commercial invoice indicating, what is specifically in that package only. The commercial invoice will show product details, including cost, as well as customer name and address or other contact details, so that the information can be provided to destination customs or postal authorities, to the extent required under the laws and regulations of the destination country.
