I didn't click that I want to take part in the better Friday offers, yet my items have been added and my prices have been dropped without me being asked! As for "Better Friday" I noticed this today ON MONDAY, I have seen some incompetence from Vestiaire, their IT is horrendous, but this really tops everything! I get it, you are trying to be the bargain basement and harass people with "drop your prices to ridiculously low while we increase our commission, offer no customer service, use cheap delivery services" but even you should know that you can't just drop prices without asking the seller (btw not the 1st time this happens) especially if they do not want to take part in your bargain basement game, and I would have expected that despite the famed incompetence, even you would be aware that Friday is one day of the week and MONDAY is something else!

I’ve been an avid seller for a year now and made another sale… only to find out that they have removed my country from the pre paid shipping list. Without warning or notification. I live in Dubai and we don’t have a regular postal system here, so to use registered post myself it would cost at least $100 (as I’m not a business like Vestiaire). Spoke to customer service and they gave no explanation just ‘sorry we removed UAE and Turkey, now you have to pay it yourself’. Honestly so devastated as someone who works in the fashion industry and valued a website like that for contributing to sustainability. And to cancel UAE is crazy considering the luxury fashion resell business is at its highest. I really hope they changed it back, because including all but two countries feels like discrimination.

Appalling experience. They have not refunded me for two items I sent back. The first a pair of boots advertised as size 4, but actually a size 5. The second a bag advertised as leather but actually polypropylene and likely fake. Their customer is without a doubt the worst I have ever ever experienced. I have experienced Gaslighting, ghosting, stonewalling, lying and manipulating, ignoring, contradicting and disconnecting. I got notifications saying I would receive a refund. I then experience 3 customer care reps in a row who disconnected me. One of them told me that there expert team had concluded the boots were as advertised, even though 1. They were sent back to the seller, not the team. So a total lie. They also had previously agreed they were sold not as advertised. They insisted they had sent me emails advising me to send the boots back and let them know, even though they can see all notifications of emails on my account, and there just were no such emails. They were changing their tactic and story every time I contacted them. It’s an aggressive consumer intimidation policy of customer service. That is acruelly illegal. I had to take a day off work from the stress of been online for 2 hours and the trauma of what I experienced. They are bad for your mental health. I’ve had to go to the European consumer centre for resolution. I will not rest until they pay me what they owe me. Ultimately it is theft. They have stolen from me.

Stay away from these scammers. They rejected a 100% authentic pair of Jimmy Choo boots, with tags on, receipt of purchase as not being able to authenticate. What sort of people do the authentication? I removed my items from the platform. The chat is horrible. Now I have to pay for my item to get shipped to me. How they are able to still operate is incomprehensible to me. Item rejected: 27496656.

I have been a customer of Vestiaire for eight years now, but I won’t buy from them now in the UK because everything seems to be shipped with evri, surely the most unreliable delivery company in the UK and there’s too high a risk of it going wrong. I’ve no idea why a company like Vestiaire which aims to be associated with luxury and ethics should partner with a cheap-for-a-reason delivery option with such a poor reputation. When things go well Vestiaire are great; however when there’s a problem, their customer service seems to struggle. Recently I bought three items via Vestiaire’: one was cancelled by the seller without explanation and evri lost the other two (sent by two different sellers) in transit. Eventually I got refunded but to achieve that, I was contacted by eight different customer services representatives, none of whom seemed to have any awareness at all of what their colleagues had been saying or doing. I received four different requests from four different people to send ID and a written statement, three of the requests days after I’d already sent this! It was a stressful waste of my time to have to repeat everything over and over and surely a waste of their team’s time too to do everything in octoplicate. A pity because with an adequate courier company and better trained and resourced customer service, they would have been great.

The customer service is pretty much not existent. This is not the first time I purchased an item from UK( I leave in US) but is the first where I send 4 emails to Vestiaire and I am giving the silence treatment. I was charged sales taxes but I should have not.In the previous instance vestiaire contacted me, reimbursed me the amount and told me was a glitch and they fix it, I will not be charged sales tax from that country for future purchases. Well, I was and this time I sent 4 emails to Vestiaire but I never received a reply, I guess they decided it is ok to charge me something I should not have being charged. I will obviously stay away from this website since it is absolutely not reliable. My ref# 28281065.

It's been now 5 weeks that I sent a Burberry bag that Evri apparently lost, I told Vestiaire that I am very concerned about using Evri due to their bad reputation (keeps winning the price for the UK's worst delivery service every year) and somebody told me that it has been noted and I would not have to use the service again, I sold a dress, and I get an Evri label again, luckily the dress is moving however at the pace of a turtle, all I hear about my bag is a standard letter about "We have not forgotten you - be assured this is an unusual situation...." No it is NOT, or else why would they be named the worst delivery company? https://metro.co.uk/2022/11/18/worst-performing-parcel-firm-in-the-uk-revealed-17780280/ I was thinking to list a few items as people will be going to Xmas and New Year's Eve parties, but frankly since it will most likely be Evri delivery, the people who bought will be angry and will not buy from me again, my items will disappear and I will wait weeks for a resolution, with frequent automated emails where they assure me they haven't forgotten me. My parcel hasn't moved in WEEKS, shop took it, scanned it, handed me a receipt and then NOTHING happened, tracking shows it has been received by the shop but there has not been an update since the 18th of October, and all I get from Vestiaire is automated emails and empty promises (or was it an outrageous lie) and again an Evri label. I have to send my item within 5 days, your delivery service can't deliver within 5 weeks in the same country? Oh and please spare me the "contact us" link, I have contacted you, ASAP as I was hoping that my parcel with the bag (which was btw very sturdily packed) would be found, and see my experience above, I don't need another auto reply that you haven't forgotten me and claims that it is an unusual situation. On every forum you look, people are complaining about parcels lost by Evri, there is no way to contact Evri as the help section won't even let you do detailed tracking as you need the postcode of the buyer, well, the label is on the parcel, the same parcel I dropped off at the shop and that seems to have disappeared without a trace!

My experience with Vestiaire Collective was terrible & is unfortunately still ongoing. I bought a waterproof Yves Saloman puffer down coat that was described as having a “detachable hood” (which I need as I live in the UK!). This was one of the main reason I purchased the coat. I couldn’t actually see the hood in the photos, but I just assumed it had been detached, as the listing was very clear - definitely a coat with a hood. I bought the coat in good faith - I paid £475 for the coat, as well as £172.94 in import taxes (it was shipped from Germany), & £12.50 in shipping. The coat arrived, and, to my dismay, there was no hood, detachable or otherwise. I was fairly upset as I had been excited to receive it. I duly wrote to Vestiaire describing the problem. In response, they asked for “a photo of the problem area”. Obviously it’s a little tricky to photograph something that’s not there, but I did my best - I photographed the collar area, where a hood would go. Then they wrote back asking for more photos, which I thought was strange, but I obliged. I also sent them a screenshot of the listing with the words “detachable hood” highlighted. Then, to my disbelief, they wrote back & made it clear I would not be allowed to return the item, nor be refunded the £660.44. They said, “After careful inspection, the information provided does not justify the return of the item to the Seller or the withdrawal of their Trusted/Expert Seller status.” They said if I didn’t want it, I would have to relist the coat for sale - through them! I was completely gobsmacked. A winter waterproof coat advertised as having a hood, that doesn’t have a hood? A hood is a pretty important element of a waterproof coat, it’s kind of a key feature isn’t it - it’s not like it was just missing a button… I’ve asked for the address to send the coat back to but they would not give it. So now, I’ve had to open a chargeback dispute through my credit card to reclaim the £660.44 I paid them. They are trying to fraudulently keep my money, & they are obviously selling items that do not fit the description. I’m absolutely disgusted by their behaviour & would like to warn anyone considering making any large purchases from this site - STEER CLEAR. Just don’t. They are obviously extremely dodgy & the stress from this has completely ruined half of my weekend. I wish I’d never heard of Vestiaire Collective.

I was a seller on Vestiaire for a few months and I resented the way they pushed me to lower the prices of my items and rejected other items. So I left the site and went to Tradesy where I had a much better experience for many years. Imagine my dismay when Tradesy was sold to them. I delayed moving my items over to them until the last minute. Then unfortunately I was forced to do so. As soon as I moved my items, they started hounding me about dropping my prices. I couldn’t manage my items unless I accepted their prices for them. I had bought some items for thousands of dollars and their aggressive takeover of my items once again proved to be too much of a hassle. So within a few days of moving my items I deleted the account. I’m disappointed that Tradesy was acquired by them. I miss Tradesy where I was treated with respect as a seller and was not bullied constantly to lower my prices.

I have bought several times on Vestiaire but lately there are a lot of problems, I try to buy only in the UK to avoid the import duties and a big carbon footprint! However while most deliveries were without problems, I am having the 3rd issue in less than a year, the item has been sent, the seller confirmed, in my account it shows as it being on the way to me but it doesn't arrive, so I check the tracking and notice it hasn't updated, it is still stuck for weeks, sometimes at the seller's shop, sometimes it is at the hub, but no updates happen, no parcel gets delivered. It is clear that it is still in possession of Evri. The seller can only also check the tracking, most have been super helpful, one got banned from chat when trying to communicate the location from where she sent it (absurd), it is impossible to get in touch with Evri, you get an automated response but you can't tell them that your parcel is overdue. So each and every time, despite it being obvious that the parcel has not been delivered to me, I have to submit a handwritten letter and my ID in an email. From the tracking in my account, it is VERY OBVIOUS and CLEARLY VISIBLE that there has been no attempt to deliver the parcel, yet Vestiaire Collective forces me to jump through hoops, write a letter stating I have not had it, I have checked with neighbours, that tracking shows that the item is still with Evri, then I wait weeks and weeks until I get my money refunded. Why do you have tracking if you do not trust the tracking? This is such a waste of my time, you don't even give me a choice with the delivery company! Sometimes I get items with UPS and that is never a problem, every problem where a parcel was lost has been Evri! All the time I get emails that you have not forgotten me, that it is an exceptional situation. Really? I would call it alarmingly regular! PS: I don't particularly enjoy writing handwritten letters, again why are they even needed when the item tracking shows that there has been no delivery attempt? I feel totally messed around. Additionally I do follow a few sellers where I know they have items in my size and our taste in clothing is similar, lately I don't see it anymore if they upload new items, when I go to "Discover seller's Vesitiare" on the webpage (which I prefer to the smaller pictures on the app as a computer screen is bigger than a phone screen) it doesn't show me their new items, I have to go on news. This is totally annoying, I might miss out on some clothes I would have bought, the seller is missing out on sales, Vestiaire is missing out on commission.

Hello, I had a bad experience with returns. The short history about my situation: I bought a bag. The description of the product indicated the sizes 32x20x16. But, when I received the bag, I saw that the sizes didn't match the description. They turned up 24/15/12 only. I wanted and was sure that the bag would be bigger. So, our love Vestiaire Collective send me answear and offer: You recently returned this item to Vestiaire Collective, and our team has now completed a second check. After careful re-examination, we can now confirm that the item matches the description and photographs provided by the seller. We have relisted the item for sale on your account at the original price. Once it sells, we will package and ship the item to your buyer, and you will receive the full proceeds of the sale, minus our usual commission. If you would prefer to have the item returned to you, please let us know within 24 hours so that we can arrange the shipment for you. To do that, click below on desktop and complete the contact form, selecting ‘Refund & Relist’ and then ‘I’d like my item shipped back to me’ from the dropdown list. " I want my money back and they refuse to do it. I have all the photos, all the evidence of the Seller's mistake. No reaction to this! Maybe someone had a similar situation. Help! Thank you.

: I have sold Chanel sandals at a very expensive price and they never paid me, they keep saying that the payment was executed and that the funds should be in my account in 5 days and they never arrived, they dont have a contact number and their help center is HORRIBLE. They said they will revert back to me in 24hours and they never did. Worse experience of my life. I contacted them so many times and I sent emails but they never got back to me. Now I had to message the girl who bought my sandals (because there is absolutely no way I can reach them) and i asked her to message vestiaire.. the next step is to demand my shoes back.

I had joined to sell some high end items I do not wear anymore, I was pestered in private messages to sell even lower (the price was already about 15% of the retail price) to the point where they can't make offers that low, when I declined I got abuse of the worst kind, but the wake up call was when I tried to sell some shoes, there are fetishists waiting for the type of shoe that meets with their preference and then they will send you messages to send them pictures of the item being worn and how you should wear the item (I am sorry, but the suggestions were more suited to OnlyFans or a pornographic website) to a telegram account. I pointed out quite clearly that I want to sell items, all items are clearly pictured, from all angles, I am not interested in providing "inspiration" to a fetishist and that this is the wrong venue to get kicks from, apparently I am now a totally uptight b.... and should go and f... myself as I am sad and intolerant, apparently not willing to be a piece of meat for every weirdo to jack off to is quite horrible.
