Just cancelled my first look membership after 2 years. Not worth it. Wish TRR would do better pricing like back in the day.
I cancelled mine before the price increase. I noticed many nice items are still available after a while, so there is no need to have the first look.
I've had the first look for about 4 months now, and I'm honestly not sure how it works. What am I seeing now that I didn't see before? I haven't purchased anything, but I figured for that price it might be fun to shop, but I don't understand where to see the new items that I wouldn't have seen otherwise.
I am glad. Enjoy your shopping.Thank you, that is so helpful! I see it now
I recently purchased a chloe paddington from them. They do not post any authenticating pics of the serial number tabs or pics in detail. Other sites do that, like fashionphile and portero.
If they messed up I think they should pay for the return shipping. In your case I think it was their fault for not disclosing. I would contact customer service to get them to send u a label.
i don't think they ever do that, i'm not entirely sure, but i've not heard that they pay for the return, even if the issue is their fault,
Hi all TRR shoppers, I bought this 35cm birkin so black from the real real. When I received it, I found out it was an employee sale bag. I paid Bababebi authenticated and confirmed. I also had advice from other member. I returned it and the refund is on its way. After received the email that was told refund was processed, I felt curious and went on the TRR site to check the bag out. Just like what I thought, it was relisted with the original description and original price, no mention about the employee sale, no mention about the S stamp with ID numbers. I was very surprised because I have provided them with an enlarged picture of the S stamp with numbers,and also provide a copy of Bababebi opinion email. If any member is interested in this birkin 35 so black, just be aware. I believe this is very unprofessional to list a high end item without disclosing this in detail since we all know the price difference between the H boutique and the Employee Sales.

What is the difference between H boutique and employee sale prices?
i ordered a pair of manolos from them with the description saying it was a 36. When I received the shoes, it was a 36.5. I emailed CS and told them I wanted a refund and for them to pay for return shipping due to their error. They agreed and sent a label. Maybe I got a nice CS rep?
I believe employee sales price are munch lower than the retail prices. Those bags are not allowed to sell in H boutique due to some unknown reasons. The bag has specific number, whether is employee ID or something else, I don't know. I just know, those bags are stamped with S and some numbers, so if you are into H bags, you will know.
maybe? maybe it's different for various categories, too? i stay only in handbags. not sure i'll shop there again but if i ever do (and need to return) i'll request a label.
