I loved the Tiffany watch I got. It was in great condition and even better in person. The one thing that was a miss for me is that the description said it came with the manufacturer’s box which I assu... See more

Overall happy with my order but for spending so much, you would think shipping would at least be free. Also, listing mentioned minor scratches on hardware and it was hard to see in the picture online... See more

The items received were true to the assessment/condition; however, it would have been helpful to have more details on the sizing. I purchased a shoe in size 9, but would have appreciated to know it w... See more

The bag I bought was a lot dirtier…

The bag I bought was a lot dirtier inside and had a big stain that wasn’t in the description. It would be helpful if you photographed everything instead. It has had pieces of paper and a receipt in the pocket that wasn’t pictured. Disappointed for the first time with TRR. I had to clean the bag twice so far and even vacuum it to clean up the mess. I am keeping it even though I purchased the return option because I liked the bag but still disappointed with lack of photos and description felt deceitful. This is the first time I am debating on not purchasing another item from TRR.

COMPANY STOLE MY MONEY

COMPANY STOLE MY MONEY
-
This happened a while ago but I am feeling compelled to tell this story today. I ordered a pair of expensive shoes from The Real Real. Upon delivery and opening the box, I was confused to find another box inside with a shipping label going to a completely different place. My shoes were not in the box and it was clearly tampered with. I was disappointed and reached out to the company hoping they would make it right. I documented what I received and a representative assured me I would be refunded. I was to send the box back. I made it very clear that what I was sending back did not contain the product.

Me - “ I just want to make this clear, the box that i received had another box Inside with a complete different label. I believe the package was stolen and have contacted ups”

The Real Real - “ Do not worry. I have already mentioned the notes for our team, so you will not facing any issue. Our team process your refund high priority.”

I went ahead and followed the instructions and waited patiently for my refund.

Upon The Real Real receiving my package. I was emailed and informed that I would not be receiving my refund and instead threatened to open up a legal investigation.

I have everything documented and the company refused to make it right. I will never use this company again and heavily discourage you not to.

I have to pay for your mistake??

I was sold an item advertised at size 9. It was a European size 39, which is an uncontested US 8.5. Now I have to pay a restocking or shipping fee? For such a huge “reputable” company, this is BS.

Quick to respond to issue

Josh was so quick to respond and offered real solutions. He was very attentive and I appreciated that! 10 out of 10 for Josh!
I will say it was hard to find a place to go to for support but once I did, it was a good experience.

The worst experience ever

The worst experience ever. My money has not yet been refunded and the return took place a month ago. This place is a joke a complete scam where customers are treated terribly. I will never ever recommend this place to anyone. Will never return for anything

It’s terrible customer service

It’s terrible customer service. I was sent the wrong size sandals. it was advertised as a 36 although when the shoes arrived, they were 39. I emailed three or four times with no response and I even sent a hand written note with my return that I should not be responsible for the shipping considering it’s not my fault that they sent the wrong size and they advertise wrongly. They still took the $16 of shipping.
