Thank you for making the shopping experience such an easy process. Love my sweaters!
I am very pleased with quality andxappersncevofcthe gently used clothing I have purchased from thredup. Will continue using this site for sure! Just wish they had men's clothing too. Thanks thredup.
Easy ordering, easy returns, great prices, great selection. All the clothes I have bought are delivered in like new condition. Love this site!
I have sold and made purchases on this site, and I love it.
I have never ordered any clothing online before finding ThredUp. I have had nithing but positive experiences. Prices are fair and descriptions are true to the site.
I love Thredup! I love how easy to navigate, how the clothes are grouped in color groups & loved the whole buying experience! A VERY much needed website! Thanks again for coming up with this brilliant idea!
I mistakenly had two accounts and missed out on a discount which spurred my shopping purchase. Holly Ann with customer service was able to merge my accounts and she extended the discount for me. By far, the best customer service I have had in quite some time. I will continue to shop with this company because of my experience.
I was not able to apply my promo code and the ThredUp team was able to help me out! Thank you so much, I really appreciate it. I have been able to find some really great pieces on this site and will continue to use it :)
I find things on this site I could not afford brand new, yet they are in excellent condition. Plus you can ask them to send you a bag(for free) to clean out your closet and they will sell your clothes for you.
I love the website and the search options. Keep up the great work! I love the styles and good prices. ThredUP
Is so fun and easy to shop.
At first I thought consignment shopping sight unseen was a bad idea, but thredup put those fears to rest. Love that I'm giving items a second life and saving money too!
I have recently been convicted by the Lord to dress modestly and to glorify Him in every aspect of my life, which includes dress. I didn't know what to do until a sister in Christ gave me $20 through a reference to use on ThreUp. I was excited. I bought a skirt, shirt, and dress but the dress had a large slit in the front. That did not deter me because the rest of my clothes were awesome. I returned the item with no problem, however I did end up getting back less money than I had spent which is reasonable. I recommended a friend who used the $20 I gave her and I got $20 to spend. I bought another amazing skirt and shirt and only paid $1.97, I think, including the shipping. This site is the gift that keeps on giving.
I recently ordered on thredup, and I was disappointed when I received my order and one of the sweaters was torn and that was not highlighted in the description.
No me sirven ninguno de los articulos que compre. Uno es enorme y el otro es pequeño. Deben instalar un size shart
I had a great experience with thredUP in terms of communication and how they outlined all the different processes of buying and selling. I sent in my polka dot bag, and was kept in regular contact with about the status of my items/payment, etc. Will definitely be a repeat customer!
I love thredUp! They have such good quality clothing that won't break the bank!
Easy, fast and fun! Excellent service for a busy Mom that works full time and only has time to shop at night from the couch. I love consigning and then turning my profit into a beautiful wardrobe!
I love shopping in consignment and resale shops and to find a place to do that from the comfort of my home is PERFECT! I have ordered two different times and the clothing comes in great condition! I will continue happily shopping on ThredUp!
Answer: Don't bother. I got 80 cents for a whole bag of good condition name brand clothes.
Answer: I've actually emailed their customer service to show them how many negative reviews there were on this site and they did not care at all. They just quoted their policies. I'm sure they will go bankrupt soon enough...
Answer: 1% but they trash the expensive stuff (or am not sure what they do with it) and sell the cheap stuff. So i sent 2 bags with over 20 items, and got total 25$. 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.
