Clothing is great! The return policy is terrific & package arrives quickly. I have only good things to say about ThredUp...
I love being able to buy name brand items that still look nice and have a lot of use in them yet for such great prices. We are a wasteful society in a lot of ways and it feels good to be able to purchase wisely, not waste fully! The store sight provides detailed information on each item that helps to find just the right fit.
I was skeptical at first. But after ordering my first order and having it delivered, I LOVE THREDUP! I have already placed my 2nd order and am waiting for it to arrive. Cute selections and great customer service! Plus, order comes fairly quickly. I will never buy clothes elsewhere again!
I've ordered more then once from Thredup and I couldn't be happier. Everything shows up in great condition and I love the way the package everything just like I ordered it from an upscale luxury store.
As someone on a tight budget, I have to stretch my dollars if I need new clothes. Thredup provided affordable prices and fast service, and now I have some great new clothes. I highly recommend this site!
Much easier than I thought it would be to clean out closet
Great items for great prices! The selection is broad and the quality is good. Fast shipping.
The price is right- the clothes are great... and if you don't like them or they don't fit you can return them easily!
Items are always as described so I am able to choose the quality that I want to pay for. I am never surprised when my order arrives and and I unpack my awesome items! Also, love the care that Thread Up takes when packing my order. Each package feels special
User friendly website and good quality merchandise.
I'm so glad I found this site. All of the pieces I've purchased so far have been reasonably priced and in good shape. I'm very happy.
Favorite new place to shop
I have found so much more value here than anywhere else
Thredup is addictive and brilliant. I highly recommend it to everyone. I can't help myself, I just keep browsing, and I love my purchases.
I was excited to find exactly what I was looking for - a 3-6 month blazer - for a great price and I'm great condition! I accidentally selected the wrong shipping method and the customer service rep worked with me to change it and expedite the package to me!
Thread Up has fantastic gently used clothing at great prices. I love how every product has a description specifically telling me the condition of the item. Thread Up has thousands of items to choose from! Save time and money by shopping here!
Love my new Talbort sweater. Got multiple compliments on it the day I wore. Love my new t-shirts. They look and feel so soft. Look almost new.
I have enjoyed ordering amazing quality clothing from ThredUp - every order is beautifully packaged, all the clothing is exactly as described- and amazing value.
I will continue to shop there and to recommend to friends!
I sent in to stuffed bags of clothes and was given just under $16 of credit for everything which was all namebrand stuff in excellent condition I couldn't even buy a single item off of their website after I paid for shipping with what I was given for two large bags of clothes
Answer: Don't bother. I got 80 cents for a whole bag of good condition name brand clothes.
Answer: I've actually emailed their customer service to show them how many negative reviews there were on this site and they did not care at all. They just quoted their policies. I'm sure they will go bankrupt soon enough...
Answer: 1% but they trash the expensive stuff (or am not sure what they do with it) and sell the cheap stuff. So i sent 2 bags with over 20 items, and got total 25$. I had antik batik dress, anthropologie clothes, jcrew, christian lacroix, etc. and they trashed the expensive (new condition) brand and listed cheap things. I will not send them stuff again, it was very hurtful.
Answer: Because they essentially steal your clothes and then sell them for a profit. You get hardly any payout, but they gladly take all your clothes and sell them for a big mark up.
Answer: Of course buyers are satisfied. They are getting other peoples' brand-name, like-new clothes that has been stolen by ThredUp. Buying from ThredUp just supports their dishonest and shady business practice.
Answer: I almost always sell on eBay first. Then when I don't feel like hanging on to the clothes any more and just want my closet space back and they have been on eBay for months, I will send to thredUP. I don't even send in that high end of items and I will usually get $16 and up per bag. So to me, it's a last resort, but I usually can expect something even if it's a little. I LOVE thredUP for buying. Use their upfront calculator to see what items they take. They will say 50 cents to 1.00 per item so it is not hidden info. There is always the return option where you can get your entire bag back for $12.99 as well. Everyone who has nice stuff they'd want back should opt for this method always.
Answer: They sent me an email and put the money on my thred up account so I can buy something. I was do disgusted I gave up on the whole thing
Answer: Because I sent in 575.00 worth of clothes and recieved 8.00 in credit, half of them had tags still on them and were high priced items. When I asked for proof why they did not take them in they said they had stains on them. I asked for pics because they were brand new, they squirted water on them and took a pic. It takes a couple months to even get your credit and when you buy womens clothes, half the time I was sent stained or childrens sized clothes, TWICE is a much better company.
Answer: Honestly this company is not choosing to accept a lot of product that could easily be listed. I have sent bags and bags, including valuable pieces... cashmere sweaters, high end items of considerable retail cost and relatively recently produced. When questioned I am given the response that the items were not in as good a shape as they wanted them to be. That their buyers should be able to buy perfect product. My take on this is... if it's a 200 dollar cashmere sweater and the purchase price is under 10 dollars, a few pills on the fabric should be a non issue! Period. I question what is going on, frankly, as many do. Too much disappears with no explanation, many bags go into complete reject status. I genuinely am concerned that there is a story here and may become apparent after a while. Only time will tell.
Answer: Not worth it unless you have stuff priced over $40 and can get 40%. There percentages are ridiculous for lower priced clothes. You can order return assurance for about $12 but be prepared to get a bag back with your items stuffed in like garbage. They do not even take the time to fold things nicely even though you pay for this service.
