I ordered 2 pair of shoes, same size different designers. One fit the other did not. The return was straightforward, but the restocking fee is a bit steep and the process took way too long. Two weeks... See more

Love my leather jacket, eventhou I thought I ordered M size and received size 6 for my leather jacket, but the packaging and the fit are satisfying. Thank you TRR! I love my purchase

Fair pricing, fast shipping, beautiful item. The reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is that the interior of the item has a funny smell that was not disclosed in the listing.

Service from TRR are excellent from start to delivery. Shopping on TRR is endless. There's so many to choose from. Then after you make the purchase and it didn't fit or look quite right, TRR doesn't make it hard for you to return it. That is why I continue to shop at TheRealReal. Yuri and Kaya were very helpful with doing my return. Thank you so much for the excellent service! I truly appreciate it.

I was ordering from Germany and the whole process was really fast and smooth. From ordering to receiving the package it was 1-2 weeks - super fast!
And wow the items I ordered are phenomenal. Only the customs is suuuuuper high…. Unfortunately that’s down to your government, otherwise I’d order there often.

HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE - BUYER BEWARE

I purchased a Chanel brown lambskin bag, CHA1452685 and listing said it was brown and showed it as brown. When I received the bag it was BEIGE and it was poorly dyed brown. The realreal responded saying I can not return it even though they did not mention it was dyed a DIFFERENT COLOR. The photos showed the bag was in perfect condition but when the bag arrived the poor dye job was cracking and pealing off the beige bag!

Great items not so great shipping costs

The amount of items available is amazing. I love the process and I trust the items are authentic and in the shape as described. I didn’t give 5 stars because the jacket I ordered was more of an XXS, not a small. And the return shipping is terribly expensive for the amount of items I ordered. Then when I had to return the item I had to pay more in shipping.

Quality items

Just like most, if not all, pre-owned luxury websites you have to filter your choices to what your tolerance is in buying & receiving pre-loved merchandise. When I buy pre-loved designer items they have to appear to be nearly new at minimum or I won't buy the item. The Real Real has a lot of quality, extra nice items to choose from.
