Unfortunately, there was a small insect (or some kind of tiny creature) inside the clothes I ordered. I’m not sure what it was, but I found it extremely unpleasant.
Not all of the garments can be washed because they are made of cashmere and wool, and I also don’t have access to a dry cleaner.
I just wanted to let you know in case anyone wonders whether unexpected little guests can arrive with their order. Unfortunately, the answer is yes—they certainly can.

I like the "similar items" choice when you've missed the opportunity to buy an item that you've loved.

The only reason I am giving two stars is because 1 of the 2 items I purchased was good.
The other item I purchased was described as "very good" condition. It was apparent from the ad that there were some marks on the item (this was not the issue). What was not said ANYWHERE on the ad or in the description was that the latch to the item was completely broken. The bag does not latch closed at all.
I raised this with the Real Real when I received the item, including providing a quote I received to repair the latch ($250+) and apparently the best they could offer was a refund of $100 (up from an initial $50 offer).
It was a totally unsatisfactory experience. A return would have put me in a worse financial position given that I paid import duties.
The item should have been properly described and the refund should have been sufficient to repair the defect.

The Helmut Lang jacket has a large water stain on the shoulder that was not disclosed in the description of the condition of the jacket. It is a very obvious stain that makes the jacket not wearable.

As business transactions go this interaction went smoothly and shipping was timely. The item was as shown and pricing was reasonable.

I am disappointed with The RealReal in two ways: (1) price of items of interest was more than purchase price from original source; and (2) packaging was shoddy: items were in plastic bags vs The RealReal cloth bags. Very disappointing!

I’ve had great luck both buying and selling on TheRealReal. Highly recommend!

Great shipping and very easy return! Will order again.

Worst experience ever. I spent $65 on shipping then another 71 for duties and Customs. Then had to return the item at my own cost!!

The website is easily navigable, and communication around purchased items and shipping is always prompt. The items I've purchased so far have been in great shape and easily worth the price I paid.

Weak description of the conditions of the item. Exorbitant shipping costs. I’m one and done with RealReal

My first buying experience was phenomenal!! I ordered a pre-owned Taq Heuer Men’s chronograph watch. The description of the watch and photos viewed matched the watch I received. I highly recommend The RealReal and will buy from them again. Eric Rich
