I ordered a pair of designer sunglasses and they arrived in the time frame that was promised as well as the glasses were in perfect condition
I'm very happy and would use Tradesy again for sure
Found what I wanted right away! Price was on point and it was in great condition!
Many choices. Was looking for a Louis shoulder bag and this one caught my eye. I hope it is as in good condition as the site stated.
Quickly received, packaged well and just as described. Highly recommend this seller and I will definitely continue to buy in the future. Thank you!
Great everything went smooth and wife loves it. Bag came as described
It was a smooth transaction and a great experience.
Fast shipping and great experience. The earrings arrived in time and packed really beautiful!
I bought a pre-owned Tag Heur watch from Tradesy seller Fancy Jewelry@ Antonio's Jewelry for $611 on 7/6/22 and the watch was delivered 7/9/22. On 7/13/22 the watch quit working and condensation appeared under the crystal.
I tried messaging the seller, Fancy *******@Antonio's Jewelry, through the message seller link on the Tradesy site, but got an error that my message could not be sent so I contacted Tradesy on 7/14/22.
Tradesy agreed to accept the return as being within the 4 day window and I was sent an email saying my return request was approved along with a return label. I dropped off the return at Fed Ex 7/15/22 and received an email from Tradesy 7/21/22 stating they received the watch. On 7/22/22, I received another email from Tradsey saying they were returning the watch to me without refund or site credit because the item was in working condition when shipped and was not working when returned.
I agree that upon receipt of the watch there was no condensation and it was working, but within 4 days it quit working and had condensation. That's why I returned it.
It's a diving watch. I didn't go diving or wear it swimming. I wore it as most would wear a water resistant watch, on my wrist while going about normal daily things like running errands. I've owned countless watches in my life and have never had one stop working or develop condensation even after years of use. There's no way the condition that caused the condensation occured in the few days the watch was in my possession. The condition, like a faulty seal, had to be preexisting.
Perhaps the seller, Fancy Jewelry@ Antonio's Jewelry, was unaware the seal was faulty. Although the fact Fancy *******@Antonio's Jewelry won't accept messages, even though they have over 100 active listings, sure makes it feel like they may have something to hide.
Even if the seller, Fancy Jewelry@ Antonio's Jewelry, didn't know there was a preexisting condition with the watch, it isn't right that I'm left having to pay $611 for a watch that quit working within days of receipt and am now am faced with repair costs if it can even be repaired.
Tradesy has offered to reimburse me up to $75 for repairs which is at least something, but again I don't know if the watch is repairable or how much the repair costs will be.
Tradesy shoppers please be aware that this could happen to you. Moving forward, I won't be purchasing anything else through Tradesy. The concerns of whether the bag you buy is really authentic unless you send it to Tradesy to be authenticated or to be faced with being stuck paying for a watch that had a preexisting condition and quit working within days is not worth the risk or hassle in my opinion.
This was my fury's experience with Tradsey. Quick and easy would purchase from vendor again
So happy! Got the bag, in beautiful condition! It was great!
Needed the lululemon Fanny for my daughter. Paid double plus and got the service to match. Thank you. All good
I just received a Louis Vuitton crossbody. The description from the seller said in good condition with minor scratches and cracks. Well, the strap is cracked so badly that it is ready to break off!
Don't even know if it can be repaired! VERY DISAPPOINTED AND UPSET!
I am disappointed with the item after I received it. It looked old and damaged. It has scratches all over. The black strip in the shoulder chain is broken.

Quite a bit easier than what I had imagined. Some people that sell on trade Z are a bit of a headache but this seller was. Perfectly professional. I appreciate that!
Sami is so accommodating and he really pack the bag nicely. Thank you.
My order arrived really fast, the package was well wrapped, shoes in excellent condition and perfectly protected and presented. Thank you for a really great purchase!
Very easy, will shop again soon. Seller was attentive and shipping with exactly in 2 days
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.
