My seller was great and she was packaged completely and when I finally got the item I was so happy and opened it and then when I went to switch all my stuff over it smelled so musty and mildew I couldn't use it. I put it in a big woth baking soda and when that didn't work I had to try and wipe it down with vinegar and water mixture as it said online then that didn't work and then I put it outside in the sun the past two days and it still smells old and musty. To say upset and disappointed is an understatement. I just wish it would have stated it has an odor to it in the listing which would have given me the choice to look elsewhere. Lesson learned on my part but just a very expensive lesson..
Quick response to my questions, immediate shipping and prompt delivery. Product is in excellent condition.
The seller shipped my bracelet out right away and I received via UPS in two days! Item also arrived in excellent condition - better than expected.
As one of Elsa Perretti's classic designs, it was the perfect gift for a new graduate starting out in the world. "Like New" description was accurate and seller responded in a timely fashion.
Usually once i have purchase a product the order is process and shipped by the next day but this was not the case. Process
My experience with Tradesy has always been exceptional. Once I find what I am looking for and ready to purchase, my transaction is straightforward and easy. I appreciate the simplicity of it all. Shipping is just as easy and very quick. I will definitely be purchasing something else in the near future.
Received the pants which are in great condition. Quick shipper. Nicely packaged. Thank you!
I was scared and totally ready for bad experience but some amazing things came out, excellent customer service and fast delivery, I am glad that there are some good people and business are still existing.
Very easy and pleasant shopping. Hope you will have more kieselstein belts and buckles in the future. The belt is exactly as advertised. So pleased I needed the belt for a kieselstein belt buckle. I hope to order again from this merchant. Thank you.

I try to cancel my order to get my money back and I'll give me a run around for what I ordered And they're hard to deal with and give you the Run around and keep sending you the seller tech text of what the problem is instead of having somebody really resolve it
Hi Jose,
After review, we're so sorry to hear about the negative experience with our communication and returns process! We strive to provide excellent service 100% of the time, so we want to apologize if the information we provided caused any uncertainty or stress.
It looks as though you had checked out with us as a guest, when this happens we simply ask that you create an account so that you can access our "Request Return" feature that allows buyers to make returns. This is a necessary step as our Returns Team needs to be able to have your purchase attached to an account in order for you to be able to print out the label. The label auto-populates with the shipping address on file in your account and the "print label" feature can only be found on your personal page.
It's a very quick process to create an account, however, I can completely understand how frustrating the returns process can be, especially with a limited timeframe of 4 days, and I do sincerely apologize if any of this information has seemed confusing or provided to you with any ill-intent. At this time our Returns Team has opened a return for you as a one-time courtesy with your guest account, we just ask that you kindly create a live account in order to access your return label, I have sent instructions on this to your personal email address. For further assistance please check your email at your earliest convenience so we can make sure this return gets underway. If you'd like, please give us a call at (844) 988-7233 and we would be happy to assist you in creating your account. Our phone lines are open Mon-Fri between 7am-1pm PST.
If you have any suggestions on how we can improve this process, please do not hesitate to let us know at [email protected] and I can definitely share them with our returns manager. We're always looking for ways to streamline and improve our processes.
We pride ourselves on the connection we have with our users, and of course, the shared love of fashion and the environment.
To us, your feedback is everything.
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.
