Ok, thanks for confirming it wasn't just me! I was thinking the same thing, that they are backed up and cutting corners. It seems like $$$ bags and returns/buybacks still have lots of photos. I was looking at something that said it had corner wear but they haven't posted any pictures of the corners. I hope they don't do us wrong and continue this, it's too much like TRR with their awful 2-4 pictures.

I received a LV Neverfull GM from Fashionphile today. It's beautiful and looks like new rather than pre-loved. I will probably buy from them again based on that experience.
Hi have
Hi have u ever done this? I’m thinking about it for a purchase or two. Any reputable ones?
I already sold 9 bags to Fashionphile. They usually issue a paycheck within 1-2 days after they receive the bag. I get paid through ACH within 1-2 days once they release. However, this time they haven't responded yet since I'd shipped a bag last week. It has been a week. This is the first time that they took this long to inspect the bag and issue the payment. I just emailed them and now awaiting their response.
I have the same experience. Their check in times have become very slow. I had two bags delivered to them Monday (5 days ago). I received a "we received your box" email and now I'm just waiting for them to check them in. So the box is sitting there unopened for about a week. This has become their new normal. They even have a banner on the top of their page now noting their check-in times have gotten slower.
On another note I don't really think they want much stuff anymore. Or they only want very specific things. Most of my items have been getting pretty bad quotes.
I think you are correct, they are "pickier", I had some low quotes since July so I sold these items to other consignments, but my last several items summited they gave me very good quotes, so I will give FP boxes and dusters, to help them sell for higher prices. am I a nice enough seller? haha
I just saw they listed a $9,395 Chanel only has 4 pictures! I don't know why would they do that, I can't spend that much plus tax for a bag just 4 pictures, gosh, I'm not a picky buyer at all but that is too little information for a pricy puchase! Maybe someone else will, people are too rich to care.

I think that FP is cutting corners & likely so inundated with merchandise & short staffed
so they are following the lead & format of other internet sites that also show a minimum of images
but the bags are returnable so if the description/condition is not clear enough, the
option to return works
Bags are at a premium & sellers are taking advantage of all this across the board
My box was delivered last Monday but still hasn't been checked in yet. I've emailed the support and got the answer that the full process takes 7-10 business days now. I'm worried, this has never happened before and FP's process used to be smooth and fast. Anyone having the same issue? How long does it take for your items to be put into the system and how long after that do you get the money?
They are really slow right now -- I sent in a bag and got the "we have your box" email on Aug. 4 -- it wasn't processed until Aug. 13 and payment on Aug. 16.
I agree.:.took them a week to check in my item on Thursday and it’s still processing. They’re usually much quicker than this. Hopefully, I’ll get paid today
Thank you for sharing! Wow, that's significantly longer than what they used to be. A whole week for items just to be checked in!
Exactly the same as you. My box was delivered a week ago. I only sent them two items because they made great/crazy offers on them. The rest of my stuff is definitely going to Yoogiscloset. Their processing times haven't changed.
I had three boxes arrive at Yoogi's last week (I've been cleaning out stuff). One arrived Tuesday and has been paid. One arrived Thursday and another Friday, and both were checked in today and offers accepted by me. I'm kind of worried about Fashionphile. They seem really overwhelmed and I'm guessing they're putting their energy into shipping orders out.
