I guess they make it, because everybody sends ONE BAG in...? I would never send a second one, but the one I send was filled to the rim with about 40-50 high value items, some of them new with tags. They picked 3 (!) used (!) items from the gap (!), paid me $12 (which after everything I read, seems top dollars for those people) and did God knows what with the rest - I don't believe a second that they actually donated them. All of this took them about 6 weeks and having my stuff sent back to me would have cost me those $12! What a joke - DON'T DO IT

I read a lot of the negative reviews about selling which informs me about whether or not I'll send clothes in to sell. However, it doesn't seem much different than most consignment experiences I've had. How do people expect that consignment stores will make money if they give you 75% of the retail value? As with most things you value it more highly than nearly everyone else in the world would pay for it :) My buying experience was great. Clothes were as described, I kept a shirt and sent back the dress (free return). I only shop new with tags so I'm prepared to pay a little more; both items were in perfect condition. I'll definitely use it again. The buying and selling feedback should probably be separate so as to give a clearer picture to potential users about what they should expect.

I am super happy with the selection and quality off the clothes I have purchased through Thredup! The prices are reasonable for all categories from adult to kids. This was my go to shop for this school year! They have great brands and quite a large selection. I have purchased a few things for myself too and was also happy. The clothes are wrapped nicely an come in a great polka dot box that is sturdy for all I have ordered. I am telling all my friends to check out the site! Definitely a great place for clothes as I hate to pay full price!

What do you expect folks? Where else can you return clothes that are used? First of all I dont get rid of anything I still have any use for. If I get 20 bucks for a huge bag, I am happy... Maybe if you all stopped expecting so much... I live in a very rural area, walmart is an hour away. (never mind great clothing) I am so thankful this site lets me buy and sell in my own home! Maybe if you stopped thinking YOUR stuff is worth so much... No one can buy if NO One sells...

I sent in a full bag of very nice clothes my daughter and I didn't wear. All high end name brand clothes, some even with tags on. All were on their "approved" list. Guess what I got? $8.33! That was for the only 3 items they accepted! I also requested my unsold items be returned through their "return assurance" program just because of all of the bad reviews I was a little leary. Well, somehow they don't have a record of me checking the box to get my unwanted items back and now they have disappeared! They claim they are no longer on their site because they donate them to be recycled. There is nothing they can do they explained. Absolute total untrusting people running this scam of a business. I'd think twice before wasting your time and money. I'd rather give it to the needy anyday~

I received a referral coupon to ThredUp. Loved browsing the site and bought myself some close to new items with a little extra cash I had and the coupon. The items were great and the return for 1 item was easy!

I thought I could make this a regular thing by sending them my still nice clothes that I no longer wear. I sent them HUGE clean out bag of things. Gap, Mini Boden, Old Navy, etc. Not everything was name brand, but you get the idea. ThredUp paid me 80 CENTS... not dollars... CENTS for the whole bag, and if I want my stuff back, I pay THEM 13 dollars. I was devastated. I don't have the money to get my things back so I can sell them elsewhere and I have a whole 80 cents to show for it.

I received an email asking how my experience was, and I responded the same day, communicating my disappointment. I have had no response yet. Please stay away! Not a good place to sell your things.

I normally bring my clothes to a local upscale consignment store and I never expect much because they are in the business of making money. Of course they are not going to pay much for even brand new designer clothing, because they in turn are using the items to make a profit, so not much is to be expected. I often purchase items thinking I found a great deal, yet, often times don't end up wearing what I purchased. The local consignment store, I normally walk out with between $80.00-145.00. I think that is pretty good and I certainly did not expect anywhere's near that amount from thredUP. I was curious and wanted to try it, so I did... I was not expecting them to show me what they purchased and then right after to send a follow up email showing items that already sold. The items they supposedly purchased were brand new condition, the majority purchased were jeans, a couple blazers and a couple tops from Victorias Secret. I ended up with 9.45. Less than. 75 for each item they purchased. I will never do that again!

It is not worth sending your clothes here. I gave them a chance twice-- sending clothes that were a mix of gap, Ralph Lauren, and designer for kids (catimini) that had rarely been worn and had been freshly washed. Their pricing on your items are in their favor so they can make the most profit and the customer the least payout possible. You are better off both morally and financially of donating to the goodwill or Salvation Army and taking a tax donation or to a local consignment store. They said the clothes had 'pre-pilling" and needed washing-- what the heck is pre-piling (they either have piling or they don't!) and the clothes had just been washed before sending in. Don't use this service! I've used a local consignment store and had much better experience and treatment!

Not thrilled with the experience.

First, I feel like the communication is poor. It took forever for them to even update me on my bag being delivered. The tracking number wasn't working, and then the updates throughout the process were delayed.

Second, I feel that it took ENTIRELY too long to process the bag. They pushed my processing date back twice, and then it still wasn't even complete on the date it was supposed to be completed.

Also, I feel like the payout is way below what it should have been. I will be receiving pennies compared to what they will make off the items. There were also other brand new items in that bag that I feel like are not truly going to be donated. I'm sure they will make a profit off of the items in some way behind the scenes, but that is the risk I took sending it blindly.

I wish I would have read more reviews before I did this. I would have made so much more money at a local consignment shop, but I liked the ease and convenience of doing it online and through the mail.

Lastly, I CANNOT believe they make you wait 14 more days to be able to cash out the balance once your bag has been process. I think that is ridiculous. You can spend the balance on their site right away, but you can't cash out for two weeks after.

So when it is all said in done, I will never do this again nor recommend it to a friend. I should have done my research.

DO NOT SEND IN ANY STUFF TO THIS SCAM SITE. THIS SITE IS SUCH A SCAM. THEY LITERALLY HAVE CRIMINALS RUNNING AND WORKING THIS SITE. IT SHOULD BE SHUT DOWN, ASAP. IF YOU SEND IN YOUR STUFF THEY SAY MAKE SURE IT'S 'LIKE NEW" TO GET MORE MONEY. I SENT IN LITERALLY "NEW MICHAEL KORS' WINTER DOWN COAT, WINTER BOOTS AND RALPH LAUREN BOYS BRAND NEW SNOW BOOTS AND I GOT NOTHING. THEY SAID THE WOULD GIVE ME 16 DOLLARS, BUT MY FEE FOR SENDING IN THE STUFF WAS $16, SO I LITERALLY GOT A $0 PAYOUT. I EMAILED THEM THINKING THIS MUST BE A MISTAKE MY STUFF WAS NEW AND BEAUTIFUL, AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP. SAID THAT IT WASN'T A JOKE. I DEMANDED MY STUFF BE SHIPPED BACK AND THEY SAID IT WAS ALREADY SOLD! THEN I SAW ON THE SITE IT WAS SOLD FOR 3X'S THE AMOUNT THEY PAID ME AND THEY REFUSED TO SEND IT BACK. I CRIED FOR A WEEK. I SENT THINGS IN TO MAKE EXTRA MONEY, SELLERS ARE NOT RICH PPL THEY ARE AVERAGE PPL LOOKING TO MAKE SOME MONEY TO HELP THEM OUT FINANCIALLY. THIS PLACE IS SUCH A SCAM. SPREAD THE WORD, AND DONT' SEND IN ANYTHING TO THIS SITE, EVER!

It took them 1 month to "pay" me for my large bag of high end clothing (most with tags!). Instead of paying me they put it on my account towards purchasing their clothing. Furthermore, they paid me $3 for about $200 worth of clothing! I sell on eBay & should have known better. I also donate to Goodwill & would have been better off. I have bought some of ThredUps items which are overpriced considering what I was paid. I will never use them again & have let everyone else know too. Don't do it!
