I love working with Vestiaire! The entire process from uploading photos to final sale is done so efficiently. Transfer of funds upon buyer receipt is also done in a very efficient manner.
Very good, fast, good options, informations on time, very nice page presentation, I love de color of the site, good communication.
I purchased a Valentino Rosier Tote it was a fake, I own 20 so I know instead of refunding me the money they put it for sale under my account. Anyone that asks or follows it I notify them of it being a fake. Unscrupulous and unethical behaviour so very disappointing.
Immediately after purchasing an item I requested this to be cancelled and sent through a written request through their online platform. They failed to respond to me for 3 days and I followed up again with a direct email requesting they cancel this please as I did not mean to purchase. I confirm the shipper had not sent the item at this stage (which was eventually sent on the 7 day). They told me I could not cancel the order despite the item not being sent. The seller took 7 days to send this item and I had consistently emailed requesting this to be cancelled or communicate to the seller I did not want to purchase this. The item is currently in transit to me and I have again requested confirmation on the next steps to move forward. They have now informed me I cannot return this item and get a refund but I am most welcome to resell the item through their website and they will offer a low commission for them to sell it, meaning they have just earned a commission from the seller and now want one from me for an item that could have been cancelled straight away when I requested. I understand there are policies in place, however if you receive a cancellation request IMMEDIATELY after you just purchased an item and the item had not been shipped, there should be some assistance from customer service. I look forward to hearing from them.
Payment is supposed to be released 72 hours after delivery. Vestiaire changes the delivery date to a day later when the tracking clearly show it was delivered the day before. They don't pay out after 72 hours. Scumbags extend the payment by another 24 hours giving the buyer 96 hours to complain.
No one answers why they fraudently change the date of delivery. I can read and check the tracking. Scumbag site with losers not paying.
Dear Jenna, we kindly inform that 72 full hours will be given to the buyer to report a problem. Indeed, as we want to give this delay to buyers, your date of payment might be scheduled 4 days after the date of delivery, given the hour of the delivery. In order for us to check your payment details, make sure to get back to us and provide your item reference. Thank you in advance for sharing this information with us! The Vestiaire Collective team
I spent thousands on a Chanel bag and six months later when the clasp broke I sent it to Chanel to be fixed. It's a fake bag. Nobody at Vestiaire will respond, it's impossible to get hold of anyone. Basically a total scam.
Dear Denise, we are getting back to your request regarding the issue you have raised on your Chanel bag. We do regret to hear that you are having doubts on the origin of your item. Our team are currently waiting for further documents in order to investigate. Make sure to get back to our email from today to do so. Thank you in advance for sharing this information with us!

I felt like this post was obligatory because I encountered a problem with customs acceptance in the US (a form was missing) and I immediately panicked after reading the reviews here - I thought I would never see my beautiful Chanel shoes. After reaching out to the live chat representatives, I was told to first contact the seller (which was incorrect, but I will let Max slide). I sent one more chat and the kind representative transferred my complaint to the logistics team and within a day, my package was back on track to being delivered. Very satisfied with the service I received! Thank you :)
Hello
Sold my sneakers brand new never use via vestiaire to romania regret had thought before to never sell to this country but I gave a chance thought that everyone is not a cheater after 24 the buyer reports a mistake contacting their customer service got 2 giant bad photo completely different shoes under wrong color wrong on the back of the brand that I have sold he has changed shoes fake photos and managed their so-called experts approve return without contacting me I send photo that I had taken before the shoes were sent with the buyer's shipping note and in the package completely new no errors how could they approve this them do not compare the pictures in my opinion are they amateurs and get answers that o we apologize when you get the shoes if it is not the same shoes contact us and send the shoes to us and our experts - ( amateurs) can check this I have contacted the fraudster and have written to hope that it is the same shoes he has sent otherwise even Vestiaire will be sued. Have lots of evidence but these amateurs need to take both evidence and check before they do anything.

Love this site! I have purchased several luxury products in great condition! Totally satisfied!
One of the best experience that I ever have love it
This company is one big joke - I asked for MONTHS to have the spam of daily emails stop (even though I updated my settings over and over per their direction) but I was ignored and the emails kept coming in.
Would not suggest shopping here, they're totally garbage when it comes to taking care of their customers.
You're just another number and they don't care.

Prices and selection are great. Do not hesitate to use this site! LEGIT!
I am appalled by the service I have received. I purchased a so-called silver Tiffany & Co silver bracelet that passed the authentication process. In fact, the bracelet was not made by Tiffany and instead of being silver, is copper. When I returned the bracelet, Vestiaire Collective admitted that the item was not authentic but refuses to refund me for the authentication process, the taxes and the shipping, saying that the authentication process occurred and that it was my decision to make the purchase and I cannot therefore be reimbursed. Clearly, I would not have made the purchase in the first place if the bracelet had not passed their authentication process.
It is shocking that it is impossible to get through to anybody and that I will lose about 130 euros for a bracelet that was fraudulently sold to me.
Dear Trendell, we highly regret to notice that your item hasn't been declared compliant! Indeed, our experts confirmed this fact and triggered the full refund of your purchase on March 22. Please note that orders are fully refunded and the refund includes the price of the item, the shipping fees, the customs fees if the shipment is international and authentication fees if the item has been verified by us. The refunded amount can be verified on your order page directly. We remain available for any further questions you might have,

Beware! The fashion bargain you think you have swiped upon will soon inflate with "additional charges" such as a $25 "authenticity charge" and shipping charges. You may have a "first transaction discount" code such as FIRSTAU which promised a $70 discount off my first purchase (the purchase had to be over A$450). So I shopped and shopped and got my first purchase to be over A$450, entered toe discount/promo code FIRSTAU and low and behold the discount had dwindled to A$30. Furthermore it was such a concluded and difficult checkout process I don't think I will be back. I'll stick with eBay and PayPal (with buyer protection).
Dear Michael, we are getting back to you regarding the charges on your recent order. First off all, we thank you for having shared with us your order number. We first would like to inform that your voucher has been successfully applied on your order. However, we need to inform that customs fees are considered additional and kindly invite you to choose our location filter, to avoid customs fees being charged on top of shipping fees. We remain available for any further questions or requests you might have!

I had two orders of brand new prada bag for 2800eu and second hand LV bag multi pochette. The buyer ordered with authentication. I sent the bags in perfect condition. They rejected the bags as their "auth exerts" couldn't accept the bags without bill lol
I paid to them to return my bags and i got them in this condition! They have only customer support that sends you templates over and over again… you cant contact any manager to resolve the situation. Shame! Their exerts should burn their diplomas if they cant spot if the bags are real or fake without bills of purchase…
Dear Adelya, we highly regret to hear that the boxes of your items have been altered during transportation. Our team made sure to get back to you with a solution regarding this situation and kindly invite you to check our email we've sent a few hours ago. We remain available for any further contacts.

Unfortunately no recommendations:
I sold using VC platform 5 handbags out of which Got paid for 2 only.
Smaller amounts paid directly into my account-no problem there.
However, two Hermes and Chanel handbag with higher euro value of approx
14,000.00 never got paid.
Items were sold between 19 to 31.1 2022.
Since then have been sent numerous messages and different dates for payment that so far never materialised. Two months waiting?
What kind of scam this company is working.No wonder they make such a large profit if stealing from clients. They have in fact stolen my bags and pocketed money. Shame on them.
It's frustratingly difficult.
What now.?
I just want to be paid.

Just ordered dior heels and waited a week for the seller to finally ship item. I chose direct shipping so not authenticated by the VC team I GUESS THAT WAS A HUGE MISTAKE because the seller decided to scam me by sending me some non label heels instead of the dior heels! Waiting for a response from customer service but I'm not hopeful I'll get the actual help I need! Fuming!

I was so excited when I thought I found the correct pair but it's was the incorrect size it's an 8 and that way to big for me so I am back look for these women Gucci trainers. Old well next time should be better. Thanks to the seller...
Read this before you sell something on this website!
On tis platform i sold 2 items, first one went well i was happy and my customer as well.
After listing another item which was sold for *******$ i received email that my item was found not authentic, even i was 100% sure that item was authentic i agreed to transfer 12 euros for returning my item back.
3 weeks i have not received any updates or emails, my item even was removed from my listings with no status.
I was talking with agents every day and each of them keep telling me item will be shipped soon, in the beginning they even told me that they have not received payment.
At the end of the day when i read reviews about Vestiaire found same case, to that seller agents told that her item was lost and they wont pay her back. After this i start texting and sending emails every day and finally i received my payment but not the item.
So how they payed me if the item was not sold and not authentic?
And this is not the end of the story, after few days i received email saying my account is suspended, so i kept asking to the agent why? And there is no answer!
So dont sell expensive items over there! They even do not have hotline where you can call! And agents are unprofessional sending same texts like chat bots.

Answer: There are a lot of honest sellers and buyers there (I consider myself one of them) but if anything goes wrong, Vestiaire will do nothing to help, they will spam you with auto replies
Answer: This exact thing happened to me. Completely different top than what was posted. And it still passed their "inspection". I am still fighting with them to no avail. Good luck.
