No issues with placing the order. The ordering process was easy. The billing process was easy. They communicated with me when the product was delivered.
My purchase came in excellent condition and the seller was so responsive and wonderful.
Great experience and received my purchase quickly and in great condition.
I emailed to cancel item the later in the day. Never heard from seller until a day in a half later. I expressed I would like to cancel but buy that time they had shipped it. Never got email that they were getting ready to ship. Never got email that it had shipped. Had to contact Tradesy to find out what the status was. I was out of town when I package came it came early. I have bought a lot from Tradesy never had this problem. I will never deal with overseas buyer again. Thanks!
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. This is far from the experience we want our buyers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience here.
This particular seller does indeed ship from overseas, only because their inventory is of the highest quality and their prices are excellent. I do apologize that the item had already shipped and they were not able to cancel the order. I have also requested to cancel orders in the past and it is incredibly frustrating when it can't be done.
Again, we're so sorry for the inconvenience this has caused. 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!
Did not allow me to return item even though they sent the wrong size. Horrible service! I requested an exchange from the seller and from Tradesy. The seller ignored all messages and Tradesy declined to honor my return, even though it was their fault, claiming I didn't send the right pictures in time. Now I am stuck with $400+ shoes that don't fit. This is why it pays to use a department store site or buy shoes in a real high end boutique. It costs the same and the service is so much better!
Hi Mark,
I hope you're staying healthy and well. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your recent feedback regarding your Tradesy experience. We also wanted to take this opportunity to extend our sincerest apologies regarding your Chloé Silver Lauren Glitter Ballet Flats order not working out!
I took a look at your order and noticed that you were able to request to return within our 4-day timeframe - however, I do not see that you were able to reply to our photo request email within our 24-hour timeframe, which put us outside of the window to accept your return.
While we understand that you no longer want the item, unfortunately, our options are very limited. That said, we do have an option to re-list your purchase and earn cash for the sale. While our normal commission rate is set at 19.8%, I am happy to offer a lowered commission rate for this sale as a courtesy so you can earn a bit more should you decide to relist.
If at any point you'd like to redeem this offer, please do not hesitate to reach out to our team by giving us a call anytime Monday-Friday from 8AM-1PM PST at 844-988-7233. I'll be sure to have the offer notated on our back end.
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!
My dad was just looking for this watch, all of a sudden he found this website and I bought it for him!
My experience was pleasant and I enjoyed ordering with this website. I would highly recommens
Great seller! Fast delivery! Bracelet is perfect! Would definitely buy from again!
This was a great experience! I loved what I purchased even more in person, than online. For like a glove & shipping was fast! Thank you!
I received my shoes. The shoes came within the timeline. Thank you to the seller who sold the shoes to me. I really like them.
I received grey floral romper, which does not look like the picture advertised. Actually the romper is blue not grey. The style is totally different then what presented. See the picture attached below. Very misleading advertisement of the item.
The quality of fabric is really poor.
Unfortunately it was a final sale ($40), so I don't qualify for a refund. The romper is worth maybe $10. Well... live and learn. I will never buy from this low quality web site ever again.
Hi Lucyna,
It's Kai from Tradesy, I really hope you're staying healthy and well. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your recent feedback regarding your Tradesy experience.
Regarding your Romper order, we're terribly sorry for the trouble here, especially if the item was not as advertised. While the item is currently listed as final sale, do know that I've gone ahead and issued you a full refund in Tradesy site credit. This amount never expires and will automatically apply towards your next order, should you decide to shop with us again!
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 found a dress that I once rented from RTR that I absolutely loved! So happy this dress is mine now! It arrived in good condition and within a few days.
I received this package quick & the bag was very nice.
Out of stock Jimmy Choo Bailey Shoes! Found them on Tradesy. Only problem was USPS delaying them. Thank you.
Bought a brand new LV from the site. The site and the seller were both great to communicate with. Package arrived in pristine condition!
Fast delivery, packaged nicely! Really appreciate speedy service
Love Tradsey good quality and good prices. Very pleased with service.
Thank you so much for the quick shipping and the amazing bag!
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.

I understand this has not been the best experience. You must have been so excited to receive your Jumpsuit and then for it to show up in a different condition than expected is a disappointment.
I am pleased to know that you had no issues with placing an order, thank you for that feedback.
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!
