The garment is non-returnable. Since it had shrunk it was a size for a child. I will not use this site again!
Let my first say I really like my new bag. It is exactly what I was looking for. (Well tried to find a hot pink one). But it is in great condition. It matches the description perfectly and it what I wanted.
I am disappointed though that it took a week before the seller shipped it. And she did not respond to my inquiry. Nevertheless I have it and it is perfect!
Hi Edwina,
We recently reviewed your feedback and wanted to follow up with you!
Firstly we are so happy to hear that you love your new bag! That being said, we completely agree with you- as a peer-to-peer marketplace, communication between a buyer and seller is important. It should definitely be an easy, and enjoyable experience to reach out to the previous owner of your potential new purchase. We know how frustrating it is when you don't get an answer and feel as though your needs as a customer are being neglected. Please know we take note of these experiences and do our best to make sure sellers on our site are educated and informed of Tradesy expectations around using our platform for their selling needs. We do notate experiences like yours on their accounts so we can track if this starts to become a pattern.
Per Tradesy shipping policy, sellers have 10 days to ship out their item, however, we have found that they are just as eager to ship the item as you are to receive it, so they are usually very efficient! Next time, If you’d like, we can reach out to the seller to see if perhaps they may have just missed the confirmation email, or maybe it was another issue keeping them away. We can also always give you further insight as to the current status is of your purchase via phone call or email. Regardless, please let us know as we are happy to help. You can contact us with these requests or others at (844) 988-7233, our phone lines are open from 7 am-3 pm PST. One of our Member Care representatives will be more than happy to assist you.

To us your feedback is everything, we’d love to hear from you.
Great products at a great value. I highly recommend Tradesy!
I placed my order on the 10th and received my purchase on the 14th. Love how fast this item came. Super amazing.
Great product, ease of purchase, delivery was a little slow, timely response to inquiries.
Made my 1st purchase and 2 days later received my order
Received product but Tradsey had to get involved with contacting the seller because I couldn't get an answer from seller.

Hi Anthony,
We recently received 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 buyers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience here.
We encourage sellers to accurately list their items, and in cases that a buyer feels it was not accurately described or if they have authenticity concerns, they can file a misrepresentation claim within 4 days of delivery. I am happy to see you are currently working with our Returns Team.
Returns take approximately 5-7 days to process once the item is delivered to Tradesy HQ. Our Returns and Authentication Team will carefully review your item and then send a detailed email once it’s complete.
If you require any further assistance, please do not hesitate to give us a call at 844-988-7233, Monday-Friday from 7 AM-3 PM PST, and any of our specialists would be happy to assist further.
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
Was told it was "exprired". Discount code didn't work :( Was offered a discount on my next purchase which is beat. Bait and switch.

Site is easy to navigate and contains good information. My purchase was exactly as described and pictured.

But the pictures didn't even do my new addition justice, it was EVEN BETTER and they take great quality/views. Purchasing was super fast and painless too.
I had been searching for this bag for a while. One of the only places I found it was on Tradesy. The young lady who sold it to me was very helpful and she communicated with me when it shipped.
This was my first purchase with Tradesy but this will not be my last. The process was seamless, professional and easy! I'm thrilled with my purchase! Thank you!

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.
