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.

New Year, New clothes

I was able to buy some GREAT finds to start off the new year. Everything is in great shape and I got some great bargains (Clark shoes on "garage sale" for. 85 cents!)

Great Coat
February 6, 2017

I love thred up, this was my second purchase, I got an awesome bargain on a brand name winter coat with the tags still on! And some hats and gloves and two shirts. I frequently check the site to see what is available to see what I can use my credit for.

Great Service & Clothing
January 5, 2017

Always very prompt and nice when answering all of my questions/concerns. I have ordered clothing a few times, and it's always very good quality. I wish that sometimes I could order more bags when I'm cleaning out my closets so I wouldn't have to wait to send them off!

Objects may appear larger
January 5, 2017

The photographer does not understand angle or sizing. Purchased twice with much contemplation only to have something not described accurately. 26 is not the same in size. I purchased jeans listed under plus sizing a 26 and arrived to fit my thigh. Shoes with one and half inch heel was clearly 3 and half. Yes I will return or try but they are a final sale

I have really enjoyed most of the items I have received from Thredup. However, there has been a black pair of flats, size 9 1/2 that showed up to be size 9 navy flats. That was a bummer. I also had a red xxl shirt that showed up and was an xl. I would suggest a little more attention to detail while posting items.

Very happy with my purchases
January 5, 2017

I think thredUp is great. The items I purchased were exactly as pictured and described. Everything fit well and I kept it all. Also, like their policies: It's nice that we can return items for credit and shipping on returns is free. Only wish the minimum purchase for free shipping was a little lower. I also have sent in items to sell and have found the system to be easy and very rewarding!

Wish the descriptions were more specific and not just copy and paste generic. Bought some jeans that were very altered without knowing.

Seamless
January 18, 2021

I've had the best experience with thredUP, you guys know what you're doing from start to finish!

Getting gently used clothes for a steal is good enough but then you go further to wrap them and tag each one. Thank you for this special place!

I absolutely LOVE thredUP!
January 5, 2017

The styles and prices are amazing. I have ordered three times so far and was happy with the prompt arrival and the quality each time. An added surprise was how my purchases came so attractively boxed. There is no doubt I will be ordering many times in the future. I do recommend thredUP.
