thredUP Reviews Summary

ThredUp's reputation is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, particularly regarding the selling process and customer service. Many users report feeling misled about item valuations and processing times, leading to frustration over perceived exploitation and lack of transparency. While some customers appreciate the variety of products available for purchase, issues such as delays in shipping, inadequate communication, and poor handling of returns overshadow these positives. Overall, the sentiment leans heavily towards disappointment, prompting many to recommend alternative selling methods and express reluctance to engage further with the company.

Only one disappointment
October 12, 2016

The quality of all clothing purchased has been excellent. Only one item was a disappointment--because of the size. There were no measurements so I took a chance that L meant large--it actually measured medium-small. In the future I will not order clothing without measurements noted.
The only criticism I have of thredUp site is the discrepancy of sizes: L with a chest measurement of 30" is not large; L with a chest size of 50" is more than large.

I shop regularly online for clothing, furniture... you name it and ThredUp continues to exceed my expectations with every purchase. Once my selections are in the Shopping Cart, it is a seamless process to finish the transaction without any unnecessary needless prompts. But the best experience is receiving the ThredUp box - which I happen to LOVE - my items are carefully packed and the offer to return anything which does not meet my expectations is straightforward and sincere. I've spread to the word among friends and family and I can certainly go on further but I have to check my ThredUp window now to see if I've missed anything new. Plus I'm on the lookout for a winter coat!

Have not been disappointed
October 11, 2016

I have yet to be disappointed or have to return an item. I love that I can get quality pre-owned clothes at reasonable prices! ThredUP is very careful about what they accept for sale and all the items I've received so far have been in really good condition. And the fact that I can buy through my Amazon account makes it particularly dangerous! Ha!

Everything I expected
October 11, 2016

... and sometimes expectations are hard to meet. The leather coat I ordered & just received is fabulous! It was described & shown exactly as received; and its beautiful and at such a wonderful price! Will shop again.

Great Site!
October 13, 2016

I've ordered twice from thredUP and have been pleased with the things I've received. I sent a few things back, but only because they didn't fit properly. I will definitely shop this site again.

One great opportunity
October 12, 2016

Prices were fabulous and selection extensive. I bought clothes for my granddaughter and a dress for myself. Sizes were true. I will use their company to recycle my items as well.

I found a pair of high end, amazing pant for a great price. Now I just need to fit into them! This company is great... my order was delayed due to the hurricane, but I got texts and emails updating me on delivery. Thanks!

Meh.
October 11, 2016

I sent in a bag of perfect clothing. They accepted 60% of it and charged me to "responsibly recycle" the other 40% which were in perfect condition and on trend. Inevitably, they will probably sell these clothes in bulk to a reseller. There should be no charge for the things they don't take. When it was all said and done, I had enough money to buy one shirt and one pair of boys' khakis. The khakis, although it was not noted on the website (the description was very limited) are lined with flannel. We live in a hot climate and flannel-lined pants are never ever ok. Oddly, the same exact thing (secretly flannel-lined boys' trousers) happened to me last time I ordered from Thredup. It won't happen again.

Clothes Didn't Fit As Expected
October 11, 2016

I ordered three skirts in the size I usually wear, and none of them fit. Pretty disappointed, esp. Since one of them was on final clearance and couldn't be returned.

I don't care who designed a dress, when it is worn out it is a piece of derelict rag! I hate the fact that Thredup advertises their clothes with a retail price of X, telling you that you "saved" 90% from department store? Really? Do department store sell 20 year old Burberry jackets that smell like moth and make you look like you came straight from 20 years in jail? That was my experience recently with ALL clothes from this place. I think they are selling a lot of clothes from people that are dead, or closets that were forgotten. Even if a dress is in good condition, who wants to wear a Gucci skirt that came out 15 years ago? I think 2nd hand clothing should be sold as such. No designer nonsense should be taken into consideration. I tried them and realized that i hate second hand stuff. It is disgraceful especially when you find out that they paid $2.00 for most of the items they are selling for $50! This company must go down! No good.

ThredUP SUCKS
October 11, 2016

They refuse to mail me a return label. Do you believe it. They told me to go to Fedex or someplace to print the label. (!) I do not have a printer and do not plan to get one. QVC, for example, always sends a return label with the purchase. I only have one thing I want to return, guess I'll give it to the Goodwill. Which, by the way, has an incredible stock of used clothing items that are way better than thredUP and you can even try them on before you buy them. What a concept.

THIEVES
October 11, 2016

If you are in the mood to give your clothes away, by all means, send your quality used clothing to ThredUP. I sent quite a few quality, gently used clothing to ThredUp. They accepted 12 of them and gave me $16.82. They advertised most of my clothing on their website as "practically new" and "just like new". It would be better to donate your clothing to a charity and get a tax deduction on your income taxes. Do not be a sucker and give them clothing to sell so that they can make a profit.

Good stuff
October 11, 2016

Every single item in my order was at least as high a quality as was promised on the site. Two were significantly better. The order arrived sooner than promised. My experiences with ThredUp have been great.
