I recently made my first purchase from SWAP.com. All the blouses selected were rated good condition, but when I received them, they were in EXCELLENT condition. Truly satisfied customer and would continue to purchase from SWAP.com.
Merchandise was excellent. Packaging was excellent. Just what I wanted at a price I could agree on. Who could ask for anything more?
Swap.com is better than going into a thrift store and spending hours in the store. As a working mom with a 2 year daughter I have been able to get great value for my money for myself and my daughter. My husband even wishes he could buy mens items on the site lol. Great staff and great customer service.
I found this site just browsing around one night and it is awesome. Designer clothes for next to nothing. They arrive quickly and are in A1 condition. Not one tear or stain or any imperfection. I have purchased over 30 shirts and blouses and a couple of scrub tops and with my last purchase the total is less than 150.00. Even thrift stores cannot beat their prices or the high quality. I have told everyone I know. Buying top of the line clothes for next to nothing in my pj's at home, it doesn't get better than this.
Initially I was excited about Swap.com, my buying experience has been pretty good, some exception was some items not quite what I expected due to the photos on the site not being very clear as to the material, etc, but quality wise items have been great.
A lot of the prices are high but that is up to the seller, not the company, and sometimes in order to make any money after the fees you're forced to sell at a higher price.
Shipping price and time has always been reasonable as a buyer.
As a seller, my first box I sent in last February and was received and I was able to list surprisingly quick. Not the case for my second box I sent in that was received on March 31st, and still waiting to be processed, past the initial 60 days I was told, I'm waiting to hear back about that (order **************)
I'm not a fan of them switching to FedEx because there's no FedEx in my area so it's a pain to have to go through Swap.com to set up a pick up time, I had to wait several days to even get a pick up time and FedEx was a no show so I had to contact Swap.com again and they finally came late the following morning.
There's quite a few fees involved, off the top you get $11 deducted from your earning's if you opt for their bag and pre printed label, then they take $1.50 per item. So the claims of the average box making over $100 I find very hard to believe since the box I sent in February has so far sold 85% of the 27 items (23 so far) and I've made a total of $36.75 on that. That's pretty much yard sale pricing. If FedEx wasn't such a hassle and the wait time to have your box processed wasn't so long I guess I'd be ok with it since having a yard sale is time consuming, but it's just not a great experience as a seller. I will say that they are consistent with the payouts and you do get your earnings on whatever your payout date is.
Over all, just ok. If they get their inbound processing squared away, take clearer pictures of the items and maybe think about easing up on what they charge per item I'd be more likely to recommend them. Like I said, hit or miss. You might be better off at a second hand store or yard sale honestly.
I was searching online for clothing for my grandchildren in Europe. Everything they needed was out of season and difficult to find; out of despair I typed into my browser exactly what I was looking for. Up popped the usual stores that I had already checked out along with SWAP.COM which I had never heard of. So I ventured to the site, and immediately found several of the items I had previously & unsuccessfully looked everywhere to locate. I was so excited, I sent a link to the site to my children to check out for the grandchildren and they also were so excited the perused your site for quite sometime!
Thank you for this GREAT idea!
This place is great for buying used, great quality clothes on a budget. All of the clothes that they sell are accurate to their description. I have been a customer for about 6 months and order from them often. The clothes are shipped fast and the customer service is amazing. Everyone should shop here!
I just placed my 3rd order from them! There are some bargains and of course, some would be over-priced, especially if there are sales going on. But overall, I'm very pleased with my purchases! Not to mention they offer free returns with no questions asked (at least from my experience). It is kinda a pain for me to go out of my way to find a fedex drop box tho, but hey, its free. I'll definitely keep buying from them if I need anything.
I couldn't believe how fast my toddler was outgrowing his clothes, so I decided to try swap.com to save some money on replacing wardrobes every few months. I was worried on how the condition the clothes would be in. I am so happy with the whole experience. From the fast order processing, order tracking and best of all the clothes came individually wrapped, looked and smelled clean. I will continue to buy my sons clothes there.
It is possible to find some good deals but it looks like the prices have increased. $15-$20 for a used Gymboree dress that is only $12.00 at Gymboree.com is ridiculous and unfortunately most dresses are similarly priced. Nobody should ever pay $10.00 for a used Faded Glory dress.
We ordered pants for our son! They were very clean and they shipped fast! We were very pleased! We will order again!
I love swap.com. You cant beat the prices or the fast shipping. My clothes came in great condition.
Great stuff in very good condition for a very good price and speedy delivery
What you see when ordering is what you get, and to me that's amazing. I just received my third order and now I can hardly wait to wear the outfit to my daughter's thirtieth birthday party next weekend. Okay, so I'm a showoff... I admit it. :)
This was my first time to use swap.com. I was very pleasantly surprised. The prices were great, quality clothes, and my purchase arrived in record time. This was definitely a win-win purchase. I will use the site again.
I love that the site is so easy to use, the prices are great and the quality for being pre-owned is really good. I shop for myself and my kids and have yet to be disappointed. I tell everyone I know to check out the site, your bound to find a great deal!
I ordered 5 articles of clothing and they all came individually wrapped in this little box. Everything was right on the description. I was very pleased. Will order again and recommend this site. Thank you for all you do
Love this site, prices are great. Clothes were clean, in very good condition. This site cleary has standards for the items sold on their page. I would gladly purchase from this site again, and definitely share this site with others. Thank you!
I'm a happy Swap.com customer. I bought some cute dresses on the site recently! Not only was I excited that they were really inexpensive & looked brand new (great condition), but also how cute & unique they were. There's so much to choose from on the site so you're bound to find something you love!
I have also sold items on Swap.com & been very pleased with the results. They allow you to set the prices but also give you a suggested range which is nice for someone like myself who's new to consignment. Also the site pays out for sales quickly through PayPal!
Overall I've been very happy with the site & would recommend it! I feel like they have high standards for acceptable merchandise & accurate ratings of condition, so I feel comfortable buying. It's also an easy way to clean out your closets & give someone else a chance to enjoy something you no longer wear! Box it up, ship it off with a prepaid label, set the price & forget about it!
Answer: I have only placed one order so far. I ordered 10 blouses. I returned 5, due to size issues. All 10 blouses were nice, but 5 did not fit quite right due to different manufacturer's. You need to get an RMA # for returns. I was promptly refunded my money for the 5 blouses. I would order again in the future. I am not aware of any return quantity restrictions. Hope this helps.
Answer: If you want to sell clothes, all the information is on their website. Basically, they get a percentage and then they pay you thru an existing PayPal account that you set up.
Answer: Hi Patricia, We are on about a 55-60 day delay in processing inbound shipments. When your items are processed, you will be notified via email that they are ready to be priced. Have you sent an email to our support team at assistance@swap.com yet? A member of our team can look up your account information and give you a better idea of exact when you can expect to see your items. Thank you, Lauren Swap.com Support Manager
Answer: Same here, I sent a box in June and have received nothing nothing saying it was accepted or rejected absolutely nothing. I've sent 5 emails and nothing. I will be contacting the better business bureau as well.
Answer: I don't think so. I've sold and from my experience it varies. The things that I thought would sell first, haven't sold yet. It varies by what people are looking for at the time. I've bought all different seasons at random times. I buy by what's a great deal. When selling, group like items together. I've noticed multiple things sell first.
Answer: Hi Jo, That is correct. You can return items that do not fit as long as you request the return within 30 days. We will send you a pre-paid UPS shipping label to send back your return free of charge. Once the return is received, we will refund your card within five (5) business days. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us at assistance@swap.com. We are happy to help! Best, Matt
Answer: There's no way for them to go over prices. They have to see the items and determine from going over it, if it's acceptable, once it's accepted, then you have to determine the price you want to sell it for. You could try searching on their site for similar items and see what they are priced at. I did notice when pricing my items that I'd get a little notice with recommended prices, which was very helpful. I didn't have a good experience selling but many others have. Make sure you take pictures of your items, that's very important. I appreciated that their site is set up to allow you to take back your items if you changed your mind about selling them. I'm in the process of getting back my items. Hopefully it works out well and I get all my items back.
