Answer:
Your high end stuff was probably sold on ebay or is in thredup.com/luxe inventory, or someone at the company now has the items in their closet. Just a guess...

Answer:
There are many sites that only use 1-2 pictures. It's something they don't deem important as they re not detail oriented. I've seen many obviously Vera Bradley bags listed as Coach, etc. Trust me, stay away from them. Use Poshmark or eBay to purchase a bag as the owners of the items control the listings and can answer your questions much faster.

Answer:
It's a sign from above that you should take your business to a company that isn't as dishonest and deceitful as thredup.

Question:
I have coats to sell...what do I do?
Answer:
You should take your coats to either a consignment shop or just donate them to a thrift store. You won't make any money from thredup. If you do miraculously get paid anything, it certainly won't be a fair amount.

Answer:
Yes. I contacted SiteJabber about this. They did not reply to me. You should take a few minutes and contact them about the same thing. ThredUP never had four stars as an overall rating up until those fake five star reviews. It's misleading. None of the reviews that I've read mentioned any positive feedback on selling, only buying.

Answer:
The measurements from ThredUp are very sketchy, to say the least. Usually wrong.
By Penny R., over a year old
Answer:
Yes they are! Plus on 8-2 over 100 thredup reviews instead of normal 3 or 4,95 5 stars to inflate their rating. What a joke!

Answer:
ThredUP, IMO, is mainly for buying clothes. You can sell clothes to thredUP, but resale shops that buy your clothes from you, rather than consign them, give you only pennies on the dollar. You're giving up the potential for more money in return for fast cash. Years ago stores tried to sell the clothes for you and told you what percentage you'd get (consignment.) They did not buy your clothes from you. If they didn't sell, you could go get them back. I learned the hard way by selling to Plato's Closet that you will receive hardly any money for your clothing - maybe a couple of dollars for something you bought at a high-end store at full retail price - even if the tags are still on them and they've never been washed or worn. At Platos Closet, it's embarrassing to stand there and watch them reject your clothes right in front of you and the rest of the people in the store. Resellers have specific things they're looking for. It may make no sense at all why they reject brand new, high quality items. If you're badly in need of a few dollars, sell your used clothing. If a few dollars isn't worth your time, you will feel greater satisfaction through donating to a charity and knowing you helped someone in need. I like to donate used clothing to charities that will give the clothes to people who have nothing - for free. That way you don't feel ripped off when a reseller gives you a couple of dollars but turns around and sells it for exponentially more money. Selling used clothing to thredUP through the mail will spare you the humiliation of having a store employee reject clothing you were proud of in right in front of your face. I think consignment is the way to get the most for your clothing if you don't want to sell it yourself using eBay. When a store gives you cash-on-the-spot, you'll get very little money. If you take the time to use a consignment shop and wait for the items to sell, the consignment shop will give you more money for your clothing. They'll tell you the price they will sell it for and what percentage you'll get. If it doesn't sell after a while, and they mark down the price, they'll give you a chance to come pick it up. If it still doesn't sell even after they mark the price down, you can go back to the store and pick it up, then try eBay or Craigslist, or donate it.

Question:
How long until my payout comes for my items that ThredUp purchased? Name is Elizabeth Waskom-Sisco
Answer:
It takes up to 6 weeks. Don't be looking for a big payout. They will give you pennies. Rip off. Better to donate and feel good.
