Terrible website. Sold an item and the customer claims it is unauthentic so the sale is cancelled ( even though i have the receipt of purchase to match the serial number on the item!!!) i still have not received my item back and no money. Everytime i speak to customer service i get a different answer and no one can tell me where the item is.

Costumer service from nightmare! I am unable to print my postage out. Normally I always use the same address.This time shown something wrong with my address.Then i added the same address again . But it's still not working. I contact "Jaden T" from customer service. Which left me feeling greater disappointed then the system's error. Jaden refused to help or call for fix the postage problem.Saying nothing he/she can do.And left the chat open and quiet. Even I have asked to close the chat. Then I can open the chat with others to ask for help. As a Business seller on Ebay for many years.Get through all problems in E-commerce business.Lost goods,a package cut open.Customer service team always willing to help to find the way. Never experience a arrogant and disinterested service agent like this before in my all life.Such a employee who bring the reputation down the way!

Authenticity check is poor. I sold a genuine item and the 'experts' deemed my bag to not be authentic. They automatically cancelled the sale and no check report was sent hence I lost a sale. The bag is authentic as I have had it checked by a reputable authentication company

Recently registered on this site.it so happened that I sold two products at once.The first package i sent was delivered and successfully passed the authentication. but I still have not received the money for this product because they claim that I entered the wrong bank details. The second parcel is on the way but they claim that I did not send it. I feel fooled and deceived. I don't understand how a site with such an approach to its customers can exist. They don't try to solve the problem at all, I answer with the same monotonous remarks. I haven't felt in such a stupid position in a long time.to the best of my ability and my patience, I will bring the matter to the end, I'm already looking into what can be done, consult with lawyers.

Totally and utterly mental, my last chat was a month ago, it went like this: Arrived safely- thanks so much! 8/5/23, 4:17 PM Perfect! I am always so worried when I have to ship with Evri No other exchanges, all super pleasant, then I get a message last week I have been banned from chat for being rude (again, I was not on chat, the interactions were pleasant, mostly confirming items have been sent and received), I reached out to them and got spammed with an auto reply stating possible reasons for the ban, again, I have not even chatted. The site seems to be run by bots, reading through the reviews, the random bans seem to be quite normal for the horrendous software and non existent customer service Vestaire is famous for. I am looking forward to one of their auto replies here, stating that I can contact them (to get an auto reply and nothing will be done, wow, yes, that makes sense), how many more corners are they going to cut?

I shipped a parcel perfectly in time, it didn’t register to the app so automatically after a couple of days the sale got cancelled. (While my item was already gone for a couple of days) item got delivered the day after cancellation. So the buyer has the item without paying for it. A serious flaw in the system. The most annoying part is that vestiaire is not taking responsibility for their badly developed system. They just keep saying for weeks that I have to wait for the buyer to respond. Meanwhile the buyer is of course not responding because he/she has a free item. Seller just is left in the dark. Baddest experience ever!!!! Zero stars

Dear Maxim, We are very sorry to hear that your sale was cancelled. After checking, we can see that the item was not shipped within 7 days. That is why the sale was automatically cancelled. Rest assured that this case is already handled by the concerned department. We will get back to you soon. The Vestiaire Collective team

I'm a seller on the platform and platform lost my parcel Ref #32592833, I have screenshots of the brt courier number the item was sent out on / screenshots of the platform proving in progress in transit. However, vc team did not recognize the loss of the package and actually left it up to me, the seller, to find out what happened to the package and claimed that it was the only way to resolve the issue. Such an irresponsible attitude and even today they still don't want to handle my claim.

Super bad experience with Vestiaire Collective. Super Bad customer service only available via chat. What is not practical if something goes wrong what happend in my case. First looks trustworthy but then it seems not to be. I sold my vintage Gucci Glasses in beginning of July 2023. The item was not picked up but or the buyer was not able to pick it up. I contacted the buyer and they said that Vestiare keeps on saying to pick it up while the package is not there to pick up. An ERROR VESTIARE AND DPD HAVE TO SOLVE. WHILE THEY ARE PAID IM LEFT WITH NOTHING. Im not paid by Vestiare and I also till this time DID NOT RECIEVE MY GLASSES BACK. LEFT WITH LOST MONEY OF 150 euro and a lot of misery. I feel super sad about this. Would never sell or buy anything from Vestiare Collective.

All the users are treated on the same way, without any consideration for the single case (and you can experience that from the pre-builded replies that they give to every review). My account has been closed for having sold 2 fake items that I bought in a reputable store in the City with regular VAT number and licence to sell luxury brand, and of course, the release of an invoice with all the seller/owner information. The total amount I paid by bank transfer was 1.000€, paid for authentic and genuine accessories. Being absolutely confiden and sure to sell authentic bags, I re-sold them on VC. Once, the 2 accessories did not pass the authentication check and I was held responsible without my knowledge! I was shocked 2 times! First, to have known that I paid so much money to a retail store for genuine accessories, and secondly for being accused to sell fake items and see my account closed after having sold other items totally authentic! This case is simply baffling and scandalous. In my opinion, to make a distinction is a worthwhile endeavor at this point of their history: every suppliers try to offer a taylor made experience to their users, nowdays. VC behaviour's is nothing special to get impressed by, expecially because they clearly demonstrated to be only a money-mashine and nothing special. Items was 34328644 and 34836948 Please VC do not waste energy in writing the same, well known, reply.

I totally agree with Larisa, my sold item was returned in awful condition!!!! The buyer obviously just destroyed it to return!!! Hence I lost a valuable item. There is buyer protection but is there any seller protection? I doubt, based on my experience with the customer service on shipping dispute

As a seller Ive really grown to hate Vestiaire . Website and app never work properly, they take almost 25% commission sometimes while trying to push you to sell cheaper which means you end up making nothing for your sale. There is never clarity when a sale is cancelled and it seems like the buyer can use any excuse to return your item and you’re left wondering why. Which obvious damages your seller score. Truly not worth selling on this app, they’re making themselves rich while having the most mediocre website and customer service ever.

My experience is also terrible. They robbed me. They didn't pay me 10,000 € for the items sold. There was still an error with the data confirmation. When I started getting drunk, they closed and blocked my account!

I bought a pair of Hublot sunglasses with physical authentication made by Vestiaire experts. They confirmed the item is compliant and delivered the sunglasses to me. The sunglasses are not genuine and even someone without experience could see this. There is nowhere written where are made. All the Hublot sunglasses are marked with: Made in Japan. On the sunglasses I received it's nothing written. I write to Vestiare on the chat and they said that even if their expert confirmed the item it's compliant they can make a second verify. I sent the sunglasses at their hub in France and they confirmed at the second check that the sunglasses are compliant... I asked them again to tell me only one thing: where it's written where are made? I proposed to pay another 15 euro for the 3rd authentication just to check this aspect: where are made. They didn't answer on the chat and told me by email that the item will be relisted on their app and after will be sold they will transfer me the the money without their usual commission. In conclusion someone will buy a fake that was authenticated by Vestiaire experts as genuine. It's unbelievable how easy it is to sell a fake on Vestiaire app and you don't have any support or a normal communication with their staff. All the answers you get on their chat are standard, they can't give you any detail if you ask for something specific. Order 81027725

After complaining for being singled out with my item refused by quality control (while other sellers in the Uk and worldwide with identical items were kept on their website), Vestiaire’s support team made me believe they were dealing with my query for several days. Then Vestiaire asked me to provide them details of such sellers in order to answer my enquiry or close my enquiry. Very inefficient, unhelpful, unprofessional customer service. Be aware… very aware! Not worth the hassle. .

I sold a $350 Coach bag for $160 on 7/12/2023. It was an overseas purchase so it went to Vestiaire for verification/quality check. Upon arrival, they said there was an issue with quality and one of the issues was that the crossbody strap was missing. I immediately contacted the buyer and customer service letting them now that the strap was definitely packed and shipped with the bag. I didn't want the buyer cancelling the order because I figured the verification team just missed the strap in the box and they'd find it and update the report. I specifically packaged the bag in a clear poly bag separately from the strap which was also packed in a clear poly bag to prevent any scuffing during transit. I do this was all of my handbag sales if the strap is detachable. The strap was then placed on top of the bag, in the box and then I placed clear packing pillows on-top to avoid even more shuffling. They are telling me that no strap was in the box. I told them that's impossible and their verification team needs to check the box that I shipped the bag in because it was clearly tossed. It doesn't help that HOURS and HOURS went passed during this convo so that strap is probably long gone. They are now telling me I need to prove I shipped the strap. Out of over 10,000 online sales in the past 6 years on other platforms, not once have I felt that I needed to video record myself packing an order. I assumed I was sending this bag to professionals that handle luxury and higher end items daily. I trusted them and they failed something as simple as checking the entire box. Obviously the buyer cancelled the order which I don't blame them but I am now going to be stuck with a bag that's missing the main crossbody strap which then means the worth of the bag drastically decreases since the strap has been lost by their team. They are refusing to take accountability and based on the numerous reviews and complaints I've read, it seems that they lose items a lot. I recommend selling on other platforms like Ebay, Poshmark and Mercari as their customer service is much better. It's a shame that Tradesy was bought out by such a horrible company.

Wish I read the reviews before I made a purchase (ordered on 22 June 23) . So I bought a pair of $700 slides, the parcel was delivered to Vestiare and tracker shows it’s in QC, after 4days it seemed abit too long so I contacted the support/help chat and they can only tell me they are trying to find out what happened, they can’t provide any time line, they refuse to respond to my queries on getting a refund. It’s been 3 weeks since the parcel has reached them! DO NOT BUY anything from them!

They will damage and scratch your item and not take responsibility for it. Even when you provide photos of the item right before shipping it. They can’t even authenticate without receipt and they dont know how to handle leather goods. Apparently scratches magically appear during transit! Customer service is unreliable and disappointing just like the rest of VC. It has been days with emails and chats now they are asking as if i did not send anything or was suppose to get an update. Sale fell through and now I’ll be receiving back a bag with a deep scratch that was not there before simply devalued my item. I don’t recommend their platform or to send any of your expensive items through them. Disappointing and unnecessarily stressful experience.

I have been sent three counterfeit items from private sellers. Two of which were a LV wallets, which I have already received my money back for. One is an LV Demur Neverful handbag. They are making it difficult for me to send to them bc I just realized it is a fake and it’s only three weeks since I’ve received it. Do yourselves a favor and buy from RealReal. Their authentication process is thorough. Vestiaire allows the sellers to send directly from their homes to take the onus off of them for authentication purposes. They aren’t worth the trouble and headache I’ve had to go through, and continue to go through.

Unprofessional and dishonest! An Item I listed was sold, I sent it according to the instructions I got. The sale was canceled after I already sent the parcel, it was returned to me and marked "personal import" instead of a return so I was charged customs tax as if this was a purchase I made (luxury item so, the tax was not cheap!!). I spoke with customer service about finding a solution to this to no avail, no one would help, and no offer to fix the problem or refund the tax I have to pay due to a mistake they could have avoided. Terrible customer service, no availability. I don't recommend listing anything on their website or working with them as if there is any problem, you are on your own, stay away!!
