4 chanel items ordered. Only 1 arrived! Customer service unavailable
Item arrived quickly and I love it! So happy with this purchase!
I bought this for my sister who lives across the country. By the time our times align and I showed it to her on FaceTime, I couldn't return it. My constructive criticism would be to extend your return policy for at least two weeks.
Hi Parvon,
We hope you're staying healthy and well. We just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your recent feedback regarding your Tradesy experience.
We're sorry to hear that you were unable to return your order within our 4-day timeframe. I can understand how inconvenient this timeframe can be, especially in a scenario where it may take some time to see if you'd like to keep the item or not.
We allow our buyers 4-days from the date of delivery to request a return for any reason; normally we refrain from extending this timeframe as we have to be mindful of the seller's earnings and the expected release date. This 4-day timeframe gives our buyers enough time to request a return for any reason, should there be a problem with the item.
Regardless, as a buyer myself, I completely understand that 4 days seems a bit short - and I will be sure to share your feedback with our product team here. Perhaps we can consider extending this policy to be a bit more accommodating for our buyers in the near future.
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!
Great purchasing experience, start to finish. The seller provided quick message response, additional pictures, fast shipping and perfect packaging to protect my purchase.
No issues with the seller- seller shipped within 24 hour of order being placed and item packaged well. FedEx is having ISSUES. It took 10 DAYS to receive the package, which was supposed to be delivered on April 19- received on April 21.
Hi Raven,
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. This is far from the experience we want our buyers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies.
We understand this purchase was made with the intent of being received much sooner, on behalf of Tradesy and FedEx, I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you.
Where we have seen these tracking delays become more common due to the pandemic, I am so sorry you are one of the many people affected by the delays they are having!
If there is anything further we can do to help make this experience better, please do not hesitate to ask. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!
Tradesy was excellent, fast shipping, efficient notifications. No hiccups. However there was a slight tear that my order description did not describe
Hi Isabella,
We recently received your feedback and wanted to follow up with you. We're happy to hear about your positive experience with us thus far! However, I am so incredibly sorry the item you received was not as described.
We encourage sellers to accurately list their items, and in cases that a buyer feels it was not accurately described they can file a misrepresentation claim within 4 days of delivery.
Looks like you are within the 4-day timeframe for the Gucci shoulder bag so you do have the option to request a return for misrepresentation if you'd like.
Please go to your Purchases page on your account and click the “Request Return” button on the item you would like to return, then select "misrepresentation claim" for return reason.
Next, you'll receive an automated email from the Tradesy Returns team requesting photos of your return item. Be sure to reply with all the suggested angles and views mentioned in the email.
If you would like help filing a claim, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team by giving us a call anytime Monday-Friday from 7 AM-1 PM PST at 844-988-7233.
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!
I stumbled across Tradesy and bought two YSL bags. I had subterranean expectations, but I took the chance since Tradesy gives a site credit. Both looked better than their photos. Then, I purchased a Gucci Britt, which is the type of bag that I always take with me when I travel, so I love it. There was a hundred dollar coupon, and the bag was described as gently used. I have yet to find any evidence of wear on the bag-it is impeccable.
Fast shipping and in great shape. Very happy with product and service.
The item appears to be exactly as described. It was shipped promptly and well packaged.
The seller first accused me of being a scammer AFTER I purchased the shoes from her. She then waited until the very last day to ship, claiming that the Tradesy shipping kit was not sent until 7 days after my purchase. The shoes themselves were as described.
Hi There,
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 and one of our sellers.
I really appreciate you bringing this to our attention, I can't believe this has been your experience with us. This is far from the experience we want our buyers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies.
While it is a challenge to prevent situations like this from happening, we do try to monitor user's behaviors when we can, so this feedback you provided will certainly help us in every way.
If there is anything further we can do to help make this experience better, please do not hesitate to ask. We want to do anything we can to make each experience worthy of your best possible rating!

Made first purchase today so far its been a easy process
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.
