When I first discovered ThredUp I thought it was a great idea - send in your unwanted clothes, get paid, others buy, and the stuff they don't accept goes to charity. Now it is as awful as ever.
First they started charging $8.99 for the bag's S+H (which I didn't notice until it was too late), don't accept as much as they used to, and pay next to nothing! Also, the whole "charity" thing seems a bit sketchy - the site doesn't really explain exactly where they are sending these unaccepted items. I bet some employees just swipe what they want for themselves to take home.
I once sent a pair of brand new, never worn, Charlotte Russe heels that apparently weren't accepted, I figured "OK brand isn't good enough" - but then I saw the EXACT same shoes in a different, yet similar, color for sale!
I'm not going to go into detail about the three bags full of designer clothes I sent in and received $4.
Although, on the bright side I did use some of the money to buy a pair of Ed Hardy shoes in great condition that I absolutely love. Guess ThredUp may be decent for buying but DO NOT SELL!

Tip for consumers:
My one purchase experience was good but don't waste your time selling on this ripoff site.
