I used to sing the praises of Swap.com. I told friends and strangers what a great site Swap was. "Great clothes. Great deals." Then Swap had to change platforms to make my shopping experience "more enjoyable." Swap missed that mark by a long shot. Filtering items is not as precise as it used to be. With the new platform, we cannot filter by material type. I am allergic to a lot of synthetic fibers. I am no longer able to specify wool, cotton, silk... in my searches for items. Which means that I am wasting a lot of time looking at clothes that I cannot purchase and wear.
Since the platform change, I have placed 2 orders. The first order was supposed to have two pairs of gray pants. When I got the order, one pair was jet black and the other was navy blue. These were "final sale" items, which means I cannot return them. So now I am stuck with 2 pair of pants that I would not have ordered if the color had been correctly labelled. The pictured items were gray in color. Yet I got black and navy blue -- which are not my colors. What happened to the gray pants?!
The second order I placed had two items missing. Yet my credit card has been charged for the total order of 3 items plus shipping. I have emailed customer service but I have not gotten a reply. Before the platform change, customer service replied to emails. Not anymore.
I honestly cannot recommend Swap with the high praise that I used to. It's sad because Swap used to be a great second hand clothing site. I guess I will have to try my luck with ThredUp. Their prices are not as good as Swap's prices but perhaps I will actually receive the items I ordered and was charged for.
