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.

Not worth it
January 22, 2016

I have both ordered and sold to thredup and won't be using them again for either. The merchandise I received was overpriced and one pair of maternity leggings paid for was so worn they were practically see through when I got them. There was also FOOD crusted onto the sleeve on a zip up hoodie that was purchased.

I did a clean out and they accepted twenty two items and was paid 17.90 for them. Considering I paid over fifty dollars for items ordered (at forty percent off!) it is easy to see these people are clearly making bank off of what they accept. They also failed to disclose that they charge a 2% PayPal fee if you choose to cash out your earnings instead of shopping on their website. Overall, pretty despicable practices in my opinion. Definitely a place I am going to steer clear of in the future.

Gold Coach Purse
January 22, 2016

Description mentioned a minor scratch. However, there was more than one scratch and the bottom of the purse was worn and this was not mentioned. The item was way over priced for the condition. Other items I have ordered were fine I guess that is why this was so disappointing.

Jeans
January 22, 2016

I have a really hard time finding Jeans that fit in the local thrift stores. And retail prices are ridiculous. ThredUp really helps. Magically, everything they have sent fits great!

ThredUP is a great site
January 22, 2016

It's manageable to find clothes that are good quality, and the price is absolutely worth it. The clothes come clean and packaged well. Everyone seems friendly. I am really happy with everything I've received and kept and also with their customer service when I have returned items.

I love ThredUp. Loosing my other online consignment shop was a downer and ThredUp has certainly filled the void. The site can be a little tough (they don't give exact measurements of clothes and you can't seem to save your size information on your profile), but overall, it's a great place to buy and sell awesome frocks.

Still waiting
January 21, 2016

I'm not sure who is to blame, perhaps the US Postal Service, but I've never received one of my packages. The expensive one. I keep hoping it'll make it to me some how, but I suppose it's doubtful. The post office says it was delivered but I was home at the delivery time they claimed.

Great service
January 21, 2016

I've had two great experiences with thredUP so far! The items are shipped quickly, easy to track, and prices can't be beat. The return policy also is very fairy and easy to follow.

I have had nothing but great experiences from ThredUp. I have made almost 10 purchases, and I have bought some great pieces at fabulous prices. The items I don't like, I return for free and get credit put on my account. It's such an easy process. I tell everyone I know about ThredUp!

Too Small
January 21, 2016

This is my 2nd attempt with ordering from Thred-up and for some reason the pants are always too tight. I am a Petite 2 and for some reason the pants are always too tight.

Not fair exchange.
January 21, 2016

I sent a full bag of name brand clothes in excellent condition and received less than $8.00 credit. I could have made more money selling the clothes in a yard sale.

Great work

I love Thredup and I keep telling people about it. All the clothes I have purchased are in great condition and packaged very cute and professionally. I have found they have amazing service and whenever there are questions they always get answered in a timely manner.

It was great getting 40% off my first order and I appreciate the free exchanges. I have ordered great pieces a second time, but the majority of the clothes I saw while searching seemed outdated or for older, non-stylish women. It seems like the way they portray themselves in emails is hot trends for stylish women and their kids, but the items they choose to sell aren't matching that style. Need more than 10% off coupons to make it worth buying some of the items, too. Great company, there's just a disconnect between advertising and actual inventory.

Boxes of Awesomness

Very Legit. Items are represented accurately and I love the attention to detail that the polka dot box provides. It's fun to see that on my doorstep!

Wonderful Experience
January 21, 2016

I was very impressed with how quick my package shipped and the quality of the clothing. When I received my package, it looked as if someone had taken time to neatly package the clothing. I was amazed that the clothing was actually wrapped in tissue paper, not just thrown into a plastic bag for shipping. I have ordered several times and will order again. I have also recommended this site to all my friends.

Requested Review
January 21, 2016

Other than one order where I did not get the discount - everything has been good. When I tried to enter the code it jumped to next page

Since then- it has been fine.

Great Place to Shop
January 21, 2016

I love the site especially the reasoning behind it. There is too much waste and they are putting perfectly great clothes on the market for much less. It allows people like me to shop without feeling guilty. Thank you and keep up the excellent work!
