Excellent item. I am so happy to replace my old and well-worn Ugg loafers. They are hard to find and I have gotten a lot of use out of them. Delivery was prompt and item well packed. Thanks …
First time shopping at Tradesy, it was an awesome experience, I found exactly what I was looking for, the price was spot on, shipping was quick and you kept me posted on the status of my order. I will definitely shop again and will recommend to family and friends
I am not one to usually write reviews but PLEASE BE WARNED. Take your business to Poshmark or Vestaire Collective. Tradesy is one of the WORST online buying/selling services I have come across. As a seller, you have no control and buyers can return items without any reason. I had an expensive wallet purchased from me, only to have the seller turn around and return it. Once a buyer returns an item, the item is then sent back to Tradesy and they LOST THE ITEM. There is no accountability and customer service is absolutely terrible. I immediately deleted my account and will NEVER buy or sell through Tradesy again.
Before making my purchased I had lots of questions & I reached out to the seller. She reply to my questions promptly & efficiently. This help making my final decision to buying her purse easier.
Everything went wonderfully... love, love, love Tradesy!
I was reluctant to purchase this bracelet based on the extended delivery time that was disclosed in the listing. I am soooo glad I made the purchase. It's exactly what I've been looking for at a great price. It was worth the wait (which actually wasn't that long).

I will never use it again because getting paid is also an ordeal. It takes a very long time, and they charge you additional fees upon payout. That is on top of their commission fee. No other platform does that. The seller has to rush out and pay on top of the sell to ship the item and then the buyer gets to hold on to your item and money for over a week. My item was confirmed delivered by UPS on 3/21 and still haven't received my payout. I'll stick to Mercari and Poshmark you get your money within a few days of delivery with NO cash out fee.

We're so sorry to hear about the trouble regarding our commission rate! We will be sure to share your feedback with our Product Team in hopes that they will revisit the sellers' commission structure.
We had been receiving some insightful feedback about our payout timeframe this year, which is why I am happy to inform you we've actually changed our fund's release timeframe this past Spring from 21 days to 7 days! Per our new payout policy, you will be able to withdraw funds at midnight on the 7th day from delivery as long as the buyer hasn't requested a return. We know this was a longstanding issue for our sellers and we had to change. That being said, we are still constantly looking for ways to improve our user experience, I will be sure to notate your feedback for our Product Team to review.

Please know Tradesy does not have any influence on the way sellers list their goods, however, you can always report an item using the "Report a listing" button at the bottom of the listing. Additionally, you can reach out to the seller directly via the "Ask a Question" button at the listing to inquire about pricing.

Answer: Don't Do It! It takes at least 10 days to get paid. They prefer people that they can control. When you become successful, they will make upp a reason to suspend your account. TRADESY sell fakes, the owner is the closet owner of PENNY LANE It has been proven time and time again she sells Fakes. If you question TRADESY, they will shut your account down, and they do so WITHOUT even talking to you. Bunch of Bullies! Find an alternative. I AM IN THE MIST OF COMMENCING CLASS SUIT ACTION. THEY NEED TO BE TAUGHT A LESSON!
Answer: They advertise a strict selling policy of authentic and accurate descriptions for listing. If by chance an item received is questionable, they have a review process to protect the buyer unlike many other sites out there.
Answer: It says that everything is guaranteed authentic but you have to know your stuff to know if it is authentic. Tradesy people don't see the items unless it is sold and the buyer complains about authenticity. So if you put your trust on tradesy, you are 100% WRONG and will get scammed.
Answer: Yep. Tradesy are infamous for holding your money! They will also refund a sale without any communication with the seller, they don't even tell you why. Tradesy hooked up with Authenticate First, these people don't know what they are doing. Well the messed up big time with my bag, see it was authenticated by a very reputable company. I have ALL my bags authenticated BEFORE I list for sale and of course have the documentation to prove it. The bag was in perfect shape. Tradesy are ignorant, unprofessional and teamed up with a company (authenticate first) who have their heads where the sun don't shine. Tradesy are totally so unprofessional they have not bothered to send me an email even notifying me of the refund, I only found out when I checked on the sales delivery date to find a little sentence that says "refunded". No explanation why, nor when I can expect my property back. Punks! I am still waiting to receive my bag back. I have read on other sites that Tradesy keep the returns and seller is SOL. One seller was screwed out of 2,500 and never received her property back. Tradesy are shady. Another seller has started a class uit action. It's about time Tradesy were taught a lesson and realized that they have no right to keep sellers property. Apparently they resell the items on another site. The person who started the class usit actin has proof of same. Ironically, although some were refunded allegedly for item being fake, they resell and state that it is authentic. I have removed all my items from this shady scam company. I hope the class suit action closes this scam company down!
Answer: Don't ever do business with Tradesy ever! Learned my lesson. Bought a Chanel bag that doesn't look like anything they showed. I took some pictures of what I received vs. what they showed on their listing. They still ignorantly argued that those are the same item. They refused to refund me back the money. I finally disputed it with the credit card company. Tradesy almost ripped me off of my $1,600
Answer: I do not shop with tradesy any longer. FAKE prada duffle bag and im done.
Answer: Eileen: There is not a feedback option on Tradesy as there is with ebay and Threadflip. If I were you, I'd contact Tradesy immediately. While the seller may have purchased a bunch of bags to resell, that would definitely make me nervous. How many days has it been since you purchased the handbag? The number of days that the seller has to confirm the sale may have elapsed so you'd be in the clear. We only have so many days to confirm that we will have the item will ship in a timely manner.
Answer: I would highly recommend you look at RealReal or even ebay as I have sold over 100 items on both and although there is occasionally that one off glitch, they do protect the seller and are very fair from a buyer perspective as well. Do not use Tradesy... everything negative you read in reviews is true unfortunately. I did finally get my money back from tradesy as a seller, but I threatened them to no end and actually emailed the CEO... RUN from this site... save yourself the craziness of poor business practices. Best of luck to you!
Answer: I just had a worst experience with customer service also. I bought a chanel bag over $3K and the condition of the bag received was not the same as what was listed. The authentication card was also missing and there was no dust bag as listed. When I tried to complain & return the item, Blair said that the bag left the headquarters in perfect condition. How did the two big black marks were there within 5 second I got it if it left the headquarter in perfect condition. Instead of trying to solve the issue with the seller about the auth card, she said I could re-list the item to recoup the fund? There was no sign that the item was on final sale. If I knew there were no authentication card and the item was on final sale, I would not spend over $3K for the bag. It was the worst experience of customer service they've had. Lesson learnt and I will not do any business with this site anymore. I will write to BBB and I hope people will do the same.

Hi There,
We recently reviewed your feedback and wanted to follow up with you.
We're so incredibly sorry to hear about the negative experience you've had with Tradesy. This is far from the experience we want our customers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience here.
That being said, we are happy to hear that through our phone conversations, we were able to come to a viable resolution regarding the shipping claim that was filed with Fed-Ex. Do know that Tradesy will continue to inspect every returned item for your protection and to ensure that the item is in the same condition as when it was sold and to prevent any type of fraudulent behavior. If for example, you sold a red shirt and a blue shirt was returned by the buyer the item would be sent back to the buyer and your funds would be released.
Regardless, we're terribly sorry for any trouble or inconvenience our current Return Policy has caused. This is the feedback that we receive from our sellers quite frequently, so I will be sure to share your feedback with my managers in hopes that they will re-evaluate our system in place as we are constantly looking for ways to update our platform to be user friendly and efficient for all.
We hope we were able to address all of your concerns, but if there's anything else you need please don't hesitate to ask. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!
