thredUP Reviews Summary

ThredUp's reputation is marred by significant customer dissatisfaction, particularly regarding the selling process and customer service. Many users report feeling misled about item valuations and processing times, leading to frustration over perceived exploitation and lack of transparency. While some customers appreciate the variety of products available for purchase, issues such as delays in shipping, inadequate communication, and poor handling of returns overshadow these positives. Overall, the sentiment leans heavily towards disappointment, prompting many to recommend alternative selling methods and express reluctance to engage further with the company.

Eh, not so great this time.
January 9, 2017

One sweater was listed as "has some wear." It's a hole in the knit right on the chest. No hiding that. The other sweater was labeled 1x but in reality it fits a woman's medium. That's a mfr problem though. Fortunately my daughter claimed it.

Almost new!

Love the way you can shop for what you are looking for at thredUP at bargain prices. I bought a Old Navy jacket that I own in a different color for a fraction of the price!

Great customer service

I had forgotten to add a 10% discount that I had to my order. I sent an email asking if they could add it after the fact. I received a quick response and the discount was applied. Thanks thredUp!

I like the idea that you can buy used clothing online. One problem is it same to take a long time to receive your order. When I finial received my order I like the fact the everything was reusable.

Thank you

I think this site is a great idea.
January 9, 2017

I love the items I have received. And I have saved a ton of money. I hate that our clothes fill the landfills with trash. I love the items I have purchased on this site. I wanted to see what kind of mechanise I received before selling my own barely used items. I am impressed!

Purse Mania
January 9, 2017

The purses were as described, and in very good shape. One had a small rip at the zipper, but shouldn't be a problem. Love the value for the price!

Love this company!
January 9, 2017

I have now ordered twice from thredUP and I love it! The clothes are high quality, and the pieces I have received are new, some with the tags still on; yet, the price cannot be beat! I saved so much money! I will definitely be back!

Too pricey for cheap brands
January 9, 2017

My first time on the site I found great designer clothes at good prices. Now it's seems that the site is filled with clothes from Target and other low end brands at prices you could find in store. It's almost impossible to find anything of higher quality since you can't filter out the cheap stuff.
I doubt I'll be back.

My thred up bag was filled with higher bag clothes and I received a $16 credit yet I saw my items listed for prices that would make a huge profit.

Great selection
February 9, 2017

Clothes are inexcellent condition. Only thing helpful would be to know if a size is running large or small. I've had to send back items that would fit in other brands and this is the only hard part about shopping for clothes online

I love everything I have purchased from thredUP (all maternity items), and will definitely purchase again/recommend to friends. However, there were issues with my last shipment. One of my items is missing from my box (although it is listed on the packing slip they sent with it). I logged in to the site to send a message, but see now in my orders that they removed that item and credited me. Would have been nice to be notified in some way that I was not going to receive one of my items! No idea what happened or why I am not getting that item, but at least I am not being charged for it.
