Easy purchase... And the item greatly exceeded what I expected. Very satisfied
Shipping was very fast and the product is perfect, I am impressed!
Order shipped quick! Loved what I got. Great condition. Thanks!.
I have been shopping with Tradesy for a couple of years and overall I've been happy with the experience. This year I did have a order canceled when I looked at the sellers store I noticed that they hadn't completed any orders in the past. There has also been an increase in the number of items cross listed on multiple platforms.
Professional handling and merchandise was perfect. Very pleased with my purchase!
Ordering process and turn around time was excellent!
I purchased my glasses, my seller contacted me less than an hour after. They shipped my glasses the following day and I received them 3 days later. Could not be more pleased!
I didn't like that my account said my shipping materials were sent out to me the day after my buyer purchases the item and it is now 13 days later and I still have not received the shipping materials from tradesy. I really wanted my buyer to receive her bag in a nice box, but I waited so long on the shipment that I ended up sending it in a priority shipping package. Next time I know to just go with my own shipping that way the buyer can receive their product right away.
Fast and efficient! The shoes were just as described- perfect condition. Thank you!
Love them! Quick shipper. Beautiful shoes and exactly as described.
Wide variety of goods to choose from!
I use Affirm on large purchases and
Checkout process is so easy and smooth!
I originally purchased a Gucci bag, described as NWT and I had a promotion code from Tradesy. The seller did not have enough photos, so the transaction was cancelled. The seller reposted and I purchased again, but the coupon was no longer valid, so my final price was 10% higher than originally. Once I received the bag, it was NOT new. When I contacted the seller she said it was not new and she didn't know why it said that in description. She offered to have it returned, but I was really just tired of the back and forth.
Hi Anne,
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.
We encourage sellers to accurately list their items, and in cases that a buyer feels it was not accurately described they can file a misrepresentation claim within 4 days of delivery. I am so sorry you were too tired of the back and forth to go through with this! But I did want to honor your 10% off promo code that you were not able to use with this purchase and added to your Tradesy Account as site credit. This credit never expires and will automatically apply at checkout!

Item is authentic.the quality is as described by the seller. However, shipping was a pain in the $#*! as it arrived almost 3 weeks after order was placed.
Hi Liz,
Thank you for providing this feedback!
Let me first apologize for any delay you might have experienced with the delivery of your item! It looks like for this particular order the seller had opted in for a shipping kit to be sent, which may cause a 3-5 business day delay in shipment. Do know our team is working tirelessly to improve this method of shipping in order to provide a more seamless experience for buyers and sellers in the future!
We hope you love your new purchase! In addition, if there’s anything you’d like to share that would help make your Tradesy experience even better, please let us know. We pride ourselves on the connection we have with our users, and of course, the shared love of fashion and the environment.

Fun to shop at, educational browsing. Next review I will not fill out. Requiring 50 characters for a comment is annoying,
Bag was as described, shipping was detailed and quick.
Fantastic! Amazing wonderful great good marvelous!'!
I'm not sure if I received the correct pair of pumps! I thought I was ordering a silver pair of Christian Louboutin; when they arrived I was not able to open because I'm dealing with a death, but this morning the box says ivory. They do not look like the pumps in the pictures... much lighter almost white in person look. With only one day left to return I don't have time for this right now. Plus, as I look on the seller's website it looks like they have another pair of pumps that's what I thought I ordered.

We encourage sellers to accurately list their items, and in cases that a buyer feels it was not accurately described they can file a misrepresentation claim within 4 days of delivery. I absolutely apologize if you felt like you did not have time for this. But do know we take item misrepresentation claims very seriously, and any seller found with a pattern of this will be removed from selling on the site.

I am a newbie to Tradesy, just made my first purchase that I was very happy with. The selections are wide, easy to use filters to narrow down my choices, and fantastic prices. The seller was amazing, delivery was prompt, product was brand new and authentic as promised, and packaging was perfectly done.
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.
