This is my first time purchasing anything off Tradesy and let's just say I am happy with my purchase. Everything was as shown. I look forward to purchasing other merchandise off Tradesy. My seller was very professional and had great customer service.
I absolutely love my glasses! Delivery was fast and the packaging was impeccable! 10/10!
My Gucci Marmount is perfect. The seller's photos and description of the item's condition as "like new" was accurate. It was packaged well and delivered with care.
Received fast. Very good experience. Will order again.
Perfect, just as described.
Fast shipping - Happy Customer
Fast shipping, and quick responses to any questions. Thank you so much!
Excellent seller. Super quick shipping and item as described!
It was my first time ordering from Tradesy and i will def be using this site again! It was exactly what I wanted and it arrived sooner than expected!
The shop i ordered from is a little boutique however they listed it as an SLP product when in reality it's a YSL model. Not the same I would return the item but what's the point for credit.
I was looking for the Tiffany Ziegfeld heart and after looking at frankly to many on the different sites, I came upon the one from Tradesy. Something about the wording or the info made me believe that it was trustworthy. I have never ever bought on EBay or any of these resale sites so I was holding my breath. I didn't need to. The package arrived as described - in perfect condition and just fabulous. The seller and the site are an absolute credit to doing these transactions. Will certainly be looking again!
I received the item in great condition. I am a happy customer.
Great product, highly recommend! Exactly as described. I'd prefer UPS over FedEx.
Arrived quickly. Bag is in near mint condition. Alittle nervous once I realized it was shipping from China, but all is well.
My overall was seamless. Seller shipped my shoes put in less than 48 hours. I received then 2 days later and they were perfect, brand new, no scratch or dust on them... I would recommend!
I will forever shop at tradsey! Fast shipping follow up that order was received and I am so happy fast professional!
I am very disappointed that Tradesy would allow counterfeits (not authentic) products to be sold on your site as authentic. I wish Tradesy would authenticate before the customer receives the product.
It is such a terrible feeling of "violation" when one spends over $2k on a product and find out you were cheated. I understand Tradesy will refund once its has been confirmed as counterfeit, but it is a hassle/inconvenience to ship back and go through this process to get refunded. Depending on how Tradesy resolves my issue, I may never shop nor recommend Tradesy to friends/family.
Hi Samantha,
I really hope you're staying healthy and well. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your recent feedback regarding your Tradesy experience.
In regard to our authenticity policy, our team has multiple steps in place to help prevent inauthentic items from ever being listed or sold on Tradesy. New listings are meticulously examined and authenticated through Tradesy’s proprietary authentication technology as well as reviewed by a team of expert authenticators. Do know that listings that don’t pass our rigorous authentication process are permanently removed from Tradesy.
Regardless, I can certainly understand your reason for concern, especially if the item is of high value. Do know that we have a zero-tolerance policy with inauthentic items to help keep our buyers protected, but I'll be sure to share your feedback with our management team here. Perhaps we can look into getting all listed items pre-authenticated in the near future.
We truly hope we were able to address all of your concerns, but if there's anything else you need please don't hesitate to ask. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!
I don't like the part where you only give me credit but won't refund my money back to my card or bank card.
Hi Sylvia,
We recently received your feedback and wanted to follow up with you! We're so incredibly sorry to hear about the experience you've had with Tradesy. This is far from the experience we want our buyers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience here.
Do know that our team actually provides full refunds in cases where an item is found to be misrepresented, or deemed inauthentic. Otherwise, we do provide our buyers with refunds in Tradesy site credit for general fit/style issues. You can read more about our policy at https://www.tradesy.com/returns.
Do know that I will be sure to share your feedback with our teams here. Hopefully, we'll see some updates regarding this policy in the near future.
We hope we were able to address all of your concerns, but if there's anything else you need please don't hesitate to ask. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!
Quick service with short turn around time from purchase great product looks like the pictures.
This is my first time using Tradesy and I'm happy with the experience. My shoes arrived in a pretty decent time frame.
Answer: Don't Do It! It takes at least 10 days to get paid. They prefer people that they can control. When you become successful, they will make upp a reason to suspend your account. TRADESY sell fakes, the owner is the closet owner of PENNY LANE It has been proven time and time again she sells Fakes. If you question TRADESY, they will shut your account down, and they do so WITHOUT even talking to you. Bunch of Bullies! Find an alternative. I AM IN THE MIST OF COMMENCING CLASS SUIT ACTION. THEY NEED TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON!
Answer: They advertise a strict selling policy of authentic and accurate descriptions for listing. If by chance an item received is questionable, they have a review process to protect the buyer unlike many other sites out there.
Answer: It says that everything is guaranteed authentic but you have to know your stuff to know if it is authentic. Tradesy people don't see the items unless it is sold and the buyer complains about authenticity. So if you put your trust on tradesy, you are 100% WRONG and will get scammed.
Answer: Yep. Tradesy are infamous for holding your money! They will also refund a sale without any communication with the seller, they don't even tell you why. Tradesy hooked up with Authenticate First, these people don't know what they are doing. Well the messed up big time with my bag, see it was authenticated by a very reputable company. I have ALL my bags authenticated BEFORE I list for sale and of course have the documentation to prove it. The bag was in perfect shape. Tradesy are ignorant, unprofessional and teamed up with a company (authenticate first) who have their heads where the sun don't shine. Tradesy are totally so unprofessional they have not bothered to send me an email even notifying me of the refund, I only found out when I checked on the sales delivery date to find a little sentence that says "refunded". No explanation why, nor when I can expect my property back. Punks! I am still waiting to receive my bag back. I have read on other sites that Tradesy keep the returns and seller is SOL. One seller was screwed out of 2,500 and never received her property back. Tradesy are shady. Another seller has started a class uit action. It's about time Tradesy were taught a lesson and realized that they have no right to keep sellers property. Apparently they resell the items on another site. The person who started the class usit actin has proof of same. Ironically, although some were refunded allegedly for item being fake, they resell and state that it is authentic. I have removed all my items from this shady scam company. I hope the class suit action closes this scam company down!
Answer: Don't ever do business with Tradesy ever! Learned my lesson. Bought a Chanel bag that doesn't look like anything they showed. I took some pictures of what I received vs. what they showed on their listing. They still ignorantly argued that those are the same item. They refused to refund me back the money. I finally disputed it with the credit card company. Tradesy almost ripped me off of my $1,600
Answer: I do not shop with tradesy any longer. FAKE prada duffle bag and im done.
Answer: Eileen: There is not a feedback option on Tradesy as there is with ebay and Threadflip. If I were you, I'd contact Tradesy immediately. While the seller may have purchased a bunch of bags to resell, that would definitely make me nervous. How many days has it been since you purchased the handbag? The number of days that the seller has to confirm the sale may have elapsed so you'd be in the clear. We only have so many days to confirm that we will have the item will ship in a timely manner.
Answer: I would highly recommend you look at RealReal or even ebay as I have sold over 100 items on both and although there is occasionally that one off glitch, they do protect the seller and are very fair from a buyer perspective as well. Do not use Tradesy... everything negative you read in reviews is true unfortunately. I did finally get my money back from tradesy as a seller, but I threatened them to no end and actually emailed the CEO... RUN from this site... save yourself the craziness of poor business practices. Best of luck to you!
Answer: I just had a worst experience with customer service also. I bought a chanel bag over $3K and the condition of the bag received was not the same as what was listed. The authentication card was also missing and there was no dust bag as listed. When I tried to complain & return the item, Blair said that the bag left the headquarters in perfect condition. How did the two big black marks were there within 5 second I got it if it left the headquarter in perfect condition. Instead of trying to solve the issue with the seller about the auth card, she said I could re-list the item to recoup the fund? There was no sign that the item was on final sale. If I knew there were no authentication card and the item was on final sale, I would not spend over $3K for the bag. It was the worst experience of customer service they've had. Lesson learnt and I will not do any business with this site anymore. I will write to BBB and I hope people will do the same.

Hi Brenden,
It's Kai from Tradesy, I really hope you're staying healthy and well. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your recent feedback regarding your Tradesy experience.
After review, we're sorry for the confusion regarding your Saint Laurent wallet order. You're certainly right, there is a difference between 'Yves Saint Laurent' items from 'Saint Laurent Paris' items. It sounds like this may have been unintentional on the seller's end, as we only have one option for Saint Laurent items whenever our sellers are creating new listings. Regardless, I have gone ahead and shared this feedback with our team here - maybe we can consider adding a 'YSL' category as a designer in addition to 'Saint Laurent'.
In the future, please know that you are always welcome to request a return for any reason within 4-days of delivery. Typically, our team will issue refunds in site credit if you request a return due to fit/style. However, if you feel that the item was misrepresented in any way, our returns team will issue a full refund back to the original form of payment if they agree with your claim after investigation.
We hope we were able to address all of your concerns, but if there's anything else you need please don't hesitate to ask. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!
