Great transaction, a little bit of delay due to weather but great product and experience.
The good filters made quick work of my choices, plenty of pictures of all sides of the dress, information on the dress was adequate, the ordering (with promo code) was quick and easy. I'm thrilled with the delivery date stated, I'm hoping that's true too!
Great, I was very satisfied with the product and I will be ordering again in the near future
Sellers were pretty responsive in all my queries and courteous.
Very Good! I looked forward to getting the item. It is a beautiful and unique kimono.
This bag is sooo beautiful and came in perfect condition! The seller was prompt in processing the transaction and had the item shipped to me right away unlike many other sellers on here. I was sooo pleased with the quick shipping and the item that I will definitely be purchasing from this seller again! :)
Buy with confidence! The watch arrived in perfect condition with all original packaging. Looks amazing.
Seller is pleasant to work with and described the item correctly. Item received was exactly as expected. Don't be afraid to make an offer.
Great experience, fast shipping, bag was exactly as described.
So my first purchase and 2 items were cancelled by sellers. Another item arrived with a hole in it and another item was marked as a 1x size but it fits like a size 12! So it doesnt fit. These 2 items were final sales. Thats not right that its a final sale when it was sold with a hole in one and the other absolutely is not the size it is marked. It took me a lot of time to pick out 6 items and then have 4 not even work out. Not worth my time.

I was p, easantlt surprised by how quickly my purchase was shipped and received. The item was exactly as described—although quite wrinkled when I received it. I‘m pretty sure I‘ll get a or of use from this purchase.
I ordered an expensive bag over 10 days ago and I don't like it. Didn't realize it would take this long and now I have to figure out the return policy.

I had to call twice to see where my order was as it was not delivered in said date. Seller never contacted me by email to let me know status. Terrible customer service. I received the package 7 days after the actual said delivery date.

Beautiful bag! Seller was very responsive. Purchase was easy and the bag is as described.
First time ordering from Tradesy and shipping was fast... Received order as described... Gucci shirt new with tags. Can't wait to wear it
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.
