So far, I have been very happy with everything I have purchased. I just can't believe I didn't find it sooner. Thanks Tradesy
I've been selling on tradesy for a long time and sold many items never had a issue with them before until they started changing their payouts and holding your money longer. IF YOU WANT TO SELL ON TRADESY EXPECT TO GET YOUR SELLER MONEY IN A MONTH OR SO! I've called so many times asking why my money has not been deposited into my bank and they always say that they are backed up and there's always a delay! It's complete BS! Knowing you sold a item over 2,000$! And u haven't gotten paid and the customer is satisfied with their purchase! NEVER AGAIN AM I GOING TO SELL ON TRADESY ID RATHER SELL ON EBAY OR OTHER SELLING APPS THAT MIGHT TAKE A LITTLE LONGER TO SELL BUT I SURE AS HELL WOULD RECIEVE MY FUNDS QUICKER THAN THIS SCAM COMPANY! SELLERS BE AWARE OF THE COMPLETE HEADACHE! NOT WORTH SELLING HERE
The seller was great. My shoes were just as described. Fast shipping and great communication. Love how you receive all the update status when it was shipped to being delivered.
This site has afforded items at a fraction of the cost. Very affordable for a lot of people such as myself who normally couldnt afford designer things.
My experience with this company has been very good. Prompt delivery, and no-hassle returns. Great inventory, and the website is easy to navigate.
Itt was easy to browse and details of the products iwaa easy to understand. I cant wait to get my orders
It's not a good sign that you cannot even view items for sale without a constant pop-up box wanting your email address and it won't stop until you turn off block all cookies. None of the other sites I shop at do this, so red flag number one.
I've purchased from Tradesy for many occassions, and I must say, "the experience was wonderful!" The items were as intended and the delivery lead time was super reliable. I love this store!
Terrible -
It should not take a MONTH to "inspect" and release MY funds and another 7 business days to deposit the funds into my PayPal account. I've contacted them numerous times and have yet to deposit my funds.
Terrible experience more than once.
After I get my money I'll be selling on other platforms.
BTW - I have a 3K selling history with them their issues has been the WORST since of late.
I find the prices on this site is steep but sometimes negotiable for your purchase. You have to try if you really want the product.
Tradesy has many great deals that you can't find anywhere else! Super cute handbags and many options! Love it!
Would shop there again. The price was similar to a brand new product but still worth the money.
Great condition and would shop here again
I do not recommend this company especially if you are selling your merchandise. I sold 2 authentic Louis Vuitton handbags and still no money and it's been 2 weeks since the bags have been delivered. There are 2 buyers somewhere with my handbags doing whatever they want and still no money. Not to mention, why did Tradesy take so much for themselves? I used their prepaid postage, I don't remember postage costing so much money. I'll be using Ebay moving forward.
The return policy is not fair. The four day policy does not allow for anyone being out of town when the item arrives. 15 days is reasonable.
My first purchase on Tradesy was 2 pair of sunglasses and a pair of shoes, all 3 returnable. One pair of sunglasses are perfect, the other does not fit my face. I almost kept them as they are adorable but I decided to follow Tradesy's advice that if I don't love it, or it doesn't fit, easy return. They are not kidding about easy return! I have yet to receive my Jimmy Choos but am looking forward to them.
I have been with Tradesy pretty much since they began both as a buyer and seller. I don't know what's happened in the past 6 months but as a seller, I've decided once my last two sales go through I will no longer sell on this site. I understand and am okay with a 4-day hold to make sure both the buyer and seller are safe. But Tradesy has held on to my funds over the 4 days hold period, making it now over a week I have not been paid.
I emailed them and asked why my funds haven't been released and the response is this, "Tradesy may hold your earnings from a sale for up to 21 days after your item has been delivered to the buyer to ensure the security of every transaction. Timing of this release can vary based on a process of thorough internal security checks, authenticity reviews, and randomized transaction reviews to ensure the safety of our marketplace. As soon as each transaction clears this process, your funds are released!"
Because we are a peer-to-peer market place, we do our best to balance both the seller's and buyer's needs. We have to have this wait time for the seller due to our return window, and the security of the sellers finances. We have found that this is the best way to ensure a successful transaction for the seller, as well as keep the buyer happy. The longest your funds can be held for is 21 days, but typically, funds are released much sooner. I am very sorry that it has negatively affected you I can confirm that everything is processing correctly.
That response is so vague and I just can't help but feel that Tradesy in some sort of financial trouble. Other longtime Tradesy sellers are feeling the same way which is a shame because I think they are going to lose a lot of honest sellers... I'm definitely one of them. Please reconsider selling on this site.
Great vintage vest at a fantastic price. Item wrapped well and shipping fast. 5 Star rating for this seller. I will buy again from this seller.
Their return team is a joke! Unknowledgeable staff! In particular, Mellisa R. / from Tradesy returns, she prefers to solely rely on Nordstrom's product description rather than inspecting the item and reading tags attached to the item. She doesn't know that 100% Bovine leather is not plastic or synthetic. Tags on the item show that item is made of 100% bovine leather (as many Ted Baker wallets are), but she prefers to read Nordstrom's product description... just too lazy to check the tags?!. Or high school student! Why are you relying on Nordstrom's product description and not on Neiman Marcus product description, Melissa;-)? By the way, their/NM's product descriptions are much more accurate.
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.
