Fast shipping, item as described/as it looked in photos! It was listed $150+ cheaper than the best sale price I could find, and it wasn't available in my size anywhere except at full price.
Great experience. I got exactly what I purchased. No issues. Quick delivery. Thank you.
Fast delivery and in good condition. No scratches or defects with the frame. The case was also in excellent condition.
One seller never responded and the other confirmed but couldn't locate the item. Very disappointing. My first purchase was seamless. Placed two more orders, will see how those go.
Fast and efficient and always up to date with notifications and always have good luck with products being in good condition! Thank you
Easy purchase with a clean and clear platform. The seller was also very responsive
Product was received exactly as described and seller was a prompt communicator!
The purchase was an easy and quick. Love my bag! Thank you for the service!
Not sure if it's real. No stamp inside but looks good on the outside

Item as described.In pristine condition. Super fast shipping
Item arrived just as described. Can't wait to wear it!
Everything goes so easy when i have ordered from Tradsey.
Shopping was great and customer friendly. I received a confirmation email immediately and response from seller. Great shopping experience.
I received my beautiful bag from Tracey. While it took some time to get here, I'm very happy with the product.
Item perfect. Exactly as described. Quick shipping.
Tradesy, you have never let me down! Your quality of goods, shipping, returns has been beyond compare. Thank you!
Tradesy is very reliable and will always make your transaction right!
Way better than expected! The website is very easy to navigate and the description of times is indeed very accurate!
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.

Hi there,
We recently reviewed 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 customers to have, and extend our sincerest apologies for the inconvenience here.
We here at Tradesy want to make sure our buyers are heard in regards to their shopping experience. One of the difficulties of shopping on the peer-peer-to marketplace is to make sure the item you're purchasing will actually be available. It is such a huge inconvenience to spend the time it takes to find the right item only to have the order canceled! While it is a challenge to prevent situations like this from happening, we do monitor seller cancelation rates. This helps us keep the site as healthy as possible for all users. If we find that a seller is canceling more than 20% of their sales, we do reach out to them directly, and it could lead to a suspension of their account.
If you'd like, we'd be happy to send you some replacement options to take a look at that are comparable in style and price, 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.
Also If there's anything else you'd like to share, that would help make your Tradesy experience even better please let us know. We pride ourselves on the connection we have with our users, and of course, the shared love of fashion and the environment.
