All items were excellent, and I used a 30% first order promotion (the entire order was $40.00). The referral link works like a coupon. My take away in all of this is to be more careful with the clothes I buy for myself! You will receive payouts only for the items that sell. Her written work has appeared in numerous digital publications. They dont donate the clothes they dont want, they sell them. But, Ive seen lots of nice things on there. If you do this sort of thing, prepare to be indignant. Otherwise, ThredUp will decline and return the items for you. Confused where to start? I wish I would have done my homework before sending in my items. I also feel like the more I buy the better Ive gotten at selecting things Ill like, if that makes sense. It takes a few minutes of your time and youll get the money in your pocket right away! But I have some kids clothing I was going to sell as lots on eBay, but Im wondering if it would be easier (and even worth it) to send them to ThredUp instead? ThredUP does, however, take a 20%-95% commission fee depending on the selling price of your item. I regret the money I lost by not taking the time to sell on eBay, but I am very happy with the space created in my very small closet. I could see that they listed all of these items for well over $300. At the very least I would have had to get in my car andbleh I cant even think about it beyond that. Honestly, the biggest appeal is not having to lug the stuff to the donation center with my two kids in tow. I came across this post while searching for Thredup Experience what a great assessment! Required fields are marked *. Having Multiple Items While its definitely possible to try and sell clothes online on your own, Ive found that selling in bulk makes it so much easier!

ThredUp has specific quality standards so make sure that your items fall within their guidelines before you send them your clothes! Many of the offers appearing on this site are from advertisers from which this website receives compensation for being listed here. Shop on it, dont sell on it is what I want to say, but if nobody sells on it, I wont get great deals ;0, Donate your used clothes to local crisis centers, homeless shelters, and/or other local non-profits that do consignment and put the funds toward services and programs (e.g., Volunteers of America and alike). a LOT OF IT CALCULATES TO 10-15% PAID TO YOU OFF WHAT THEY SELL IT FOR. I will paste my 2nd reply from Thred Up below. I was confused about that portion. ThredUp is way less of a hassle, although they take FOREVER to finally offer a pay-out. ThredUP sells 35,000 brands of clothing and has made $3.3 billion off of the estimated retail value of sales. All of my non NWT items were hardly worn. But Ill take that over waiting in line at a consignment store or the hassle of listing stuff on eBay, etc. They have their own rules that must be followed during the selling process. Cashout to your bank via a Stripe account. From the day I ordered my bag to when they processed it took about a month and a half. The buy-back breakdown in the comment above (from Delia) is really helpful! Sell it on ebay! Forget it. Any unaccepted items (the things thredUP wouldn't be able to sell on-site) are shipped back to you (for $10.99) or responsibly recycled, according to the company. A bag costs $9.99. Listing everything individually and then shipping it much easier to fill a bag! Because money isnt my prime motivator (just looking at it like a nice possible perk), Im also not interested in seeking out consignment shops, or dealing with the hassle of eBay. Ive always donated old/unwanted clothes, shoes, and handbags to Goodwill, and at least this way I can make a little bit of money and its no extra effort. I actually have a secret theory that they do it on purpose. Perhaps I have been fortunate by some fluke in my experiences with thredup, but I love it! in many ways it is like ebay. Ugh, thats annoying. This compensation may impact how and where products appear on this site (including, for example, the order in which they appear).

I really, really started to wish Id sold stuff on eBay or maybe a local consignment store. They sell everything. Knowing that the clothes they dont accept will NOT be donated but will only make them more money is very, very upsetting. While Im not after a huge payout and I agree that we over-estimate the value of our belongings, it gives me pause that the bad reviews are very current and that a lot of people reported getting nothing or a pittance of a pay out, even on new items. They sent it with my first order, I didnt request it. After this window passes, you can cash out with Stripe or PayPal, or receive a shopping credit from ThredUP. They did however deduct 7.99 from the 12.00 they have me for two brand new pair of Anne Klein shoes and two Tribal jackets. Now that it will be easier than ever, Im sure youll be sending in several bags of clothing soon. This leads to overstuffed dressers and closets. The online consignment and thrift store thredUP offers a way to make cash off items from your closet. Im a ThredUp convert for sure. ThredUP and The RealReal are both online marketplaces where you can sell your used items to make extra money online. Then they charge you for sending the items to them. Just take some decent photographs of your stuff, upload onto eBay with some measurements, and sell there instead. Enter your email address to receive new posts in your inbox: , living on grace 2014.

In one of my bags I had 13 items accepted and got a $77.22 payout and then $133.20 for two consignment items. The Donation Clean-Out Kit is what it sounds like. Do you mean sending it to ThredUp? Personally, the easiest way to get rid of clothing is just to give it away. Like most people, I chose to research reviews AFTER I ordered my bag! It was not accepted and they say because it had a scratch. Then, return postage? Clothes are very personal. This is awesome! I think they added the $10 policy, and then changed it back.
