Sell or consign your clothes to anyone but these people. I packed up at a minimum $1k with of designer labels (black halo, frye, etc.) and shipped off my box excited to see what they came back with. I initially got a response that they received my shipment - they notified me it would take 2/3 weeks to process. That day came and went with no communication so I emailed them to check in. Over a week later they finally responded to say they were behind and gave me a date two weeks after THAT day as a new processing date. Finally, I get the email notification that my box had been processed. I logged on to find a COMPLETELY different shipment, with some of my clothing mixed in. On top of that, I only received a $63 store credit for the over 30 items they processed under my name. I was so frustrated that I didn't even reach out, took my $63 credit to purchase a purse and gave up. What a joke.

NO! NO! NO!
April 29, 2019

I sent 2 bags filled with clothes that I had outgrown but where still in perfect condition. Designer pants, blouses and a leather West that was like new. After waiting FOREVER to receive any sign that they received my donation, I finally received their payment: $15.51 total for everything! For a hat that I donated, originally worth around $ 45 (crazy, I know), they have me $ 0.75. This hat was hat new and I bad they sold it for a high price.
Long story - frustrating story! I will NEVER use ThreadUp again not will I recommend this to any of my friends. My daughter had the same experience: She donated 4 huge bags full of clothes and they GENEROUSLY gave her $ 30 in total. That is just not right.

I've left another review. Before... thread up is like that old boyfriend where your curious but deep down you don't want herpes... don't do it people... I'm still mad about there emails telling me to not bother them and selling a $2200 Valentino dress to a youtuber and not buying it from me. These people have A. No fashion sense and B. A smart little operation going. Don't believe any good reviews swear on my favorite dog... do but don't sell list your stuff on eBay for 0$... call me I will list and sell your stuff true story... NO one wants herpes or crabs of the bad kind.

Horrible for consignments.
September 11, 2018

This may be a great site to purchase clothing but it is the worst for consignment. Because I now know how badly they are ripping people off in the back end I will never purchase something from them.

Love shopping here
August 1, 2018

This has become one of my favorite go to places to shop. Very nice items with very nice prices. I have bought everything from jewelry and shoes to purses and clothes.
The only thing I have noticed is that often times, the prices they charge for, lets say a Coach bag or Kenneth Cole shoe, I can get them for practically for the same price new, when these companies send me their sales ads.

Terrible
July 17, 2018

My first time trying to purchase something off Threadup with most likely be my last. I found a purse that I wanted. Apparently someone has it in their cart. It expires in 6 hours. I click notify me (Im the only one at this point who liked it too) I wait, go back in 4 hours and its not up to 16 hours in a purse. No notification. So I wait again. Get an email. The second I got it, I went and its in someones cart. For 17 hours. This has been going on for 3 days. Seriously? I dont want to stick it in my cart, I want to BUY IT! This is so ridiculous! Stupid app and asinine rules...

Very disgusted regarding payment for clothes sold. Maybe great for shoppers wanted great stuff for next to nothing, but the ones sending in the items makes peanuts. I would have done better at a yard sale.

Love them!
November 29, 2015

I have nothing but good things to say about them. Have bought several things from them and all great quality and super great prices. Quick delivery. Sweet packaging. Easy to navigate app. I just wish they had more nike shoes, I'd probably buy them out!

My experience with ThreadUp - is disappointing to say the least. A total rip off. Do not use, try instead Twice they treat customers fairly and appreciate the clothing you send, compare the photos! They ask for designer clothing, almost new top self, but will not compensate you fairly for it. I sent (15 lbs.) filled beg to top, with BeBE, almost new, light worn clothing designer clothing, about $2,500 worth, got $30.00 dollars back! It took them 2 full months to process my bag with disappointing results. Check out who we are on their website, its run by a punch of computer Tech. S considered yourself warned, It's to late for me, I would have done better at a yard sell.

Great company
November 30, 2014

Great company. Honest and very functional. I would ( and have) recommend it! Buying is a pleasure, selling is a luxury. They are worth trying! I buy items (some with tags) from this site for lovely gifts even!
