Exactly!
A deal is only to be found once in a while as of late. (And that's if it's described accurately)
I have noticed that some items are now priced $100-200 less than retail. Why not just buy new?
Maybe because they can sell it during one of the non returnable sales.
You're probably right.
So I first got into TRR when they were pretty new, in 2012. The deals then were killer and the quality much better. But on handbag day the website crashed constantly! There were fewer search tools and not all the categories there are now. But, it was more fun then -- like a fabulous treasure hunt. When goods arrived I almost felt like I was stealing! Thinking, wow, don't they know they could charge a lot more for this stuff?! Alas, they do now.just curious, what is everyone's best finds fr TRR? include the price if you dont mind
The best of the best:
Prada Fairy Scarf - the big, square, thick, silk one - pristine condition - $144
Valentino Nuage bag in python $390 - still with the tags on it for $2400
Prada pony skin wallet - in great shape $57
Celine Phoebe Philo Collection Black Riding Boots - brand new in the box $380
Dior Demi Lune leather shoulder bag - almost like new $500
Etro mink trimmed cashmere scarf/stole - new in the box $180
I've bought a lot of stuff from TRR over the years, not much in the last 2 years as the quality and prices aren't as good. But, boy, those initial deals were really mind-blowing!!
thanks for replying! those are amazing finds you got! Yea their prices seem high now except for those super old styles. Still hoping to score something amazing [emoji108]
Dear All - Just a quick head's up. As I have expected, the Shawl has been re-listed WITHOUT any changes to its condition. Go figure folks !!!!

Not surprised at all... TRR is counting on another buyer to not notice what you did... Go figure is right!!

Looks like they gave it a new ID?
I just got a Loewe knot bag from RealReal and one of the broken part from the strap was fixed with staples. Of course, there was no mention of that on the listing. I only kept it because it's hard to find bag on resale site & it wasn't noticeable from outside. I have a few Bags that I purchased from them. Some were good & some were not. I would always check the big pictures using computer at least. I still didn't see this coming though.
I would at least call and ask them for a discount. Staples! That's pretty bad.
Does anyone know if you can use their codes for 20% off etc for their items that are already discounted? Or do those codes just apply to full price items?
I've tried several times to use their codes on top of items that were already discounted, but have never been successfully. If someone else has gotten it to work, please correct me.
if it's already discounted then you can't use the additional 20%, ime. they will tell you in each listing if the code can be used. it'll say the price and then 'take 20%' so if you don't see that 20% off in the actual listing (near the price) then it won't apply.
