I just had a fantastic experience with
Fashionphile as a seller. I also purchased something that should be here next week, so I will be able to give more insight on the buying experience soon.
I have also relied heavily on Craigslist after having multiple bad experiences both buying and selling on eBay (although I did have positive experiences, too - just not worth the stress to me!)
I requested quotes on 5 items and ended up only sending them 2. That was because I wanted to try on my own first with a few of the items. For both I chose the consignment option, and both items sold for WAY more than I would have been able to sell them on CL. One of the items I had listed on CL for more than a year, and consistently got flakes. FP offered to pay me MORE than what I had even listed it for myself. It sold on FP in one day! The other item I sent them sold within 4 days. I am still in shock that they sold that quickly.
I had checked with Fashionphile, CoutureUSA, and Yoogi's to get quotes on the same items. I sent the same photos and descriptions, all in the same day. CoutureUSA actually "declined" several of my items. FP offered the most, so I went with them. I would absolutely use them again. I can't speak to the other two, but one thing I like about FP is that they have physical locations in addition to their own website and a presence on eBay. The lady I spoke with on the phone said that they have regular clients who come in every week at the Beverly Hills and San Diego locations to "see what's new".
I also really appreciated that they sent me the money the same day they shipped the items I sold. If the buyer returns it, FP takes the risk. They already paid me, and I am finished.
I felt that my experience with Fashionphile was more than fair, and I would absolutely use them again.
FWIW, I have read lots of great things about Yoogi's on TPF from both buyers and sellers.
I know everyone has different opinions, experiences, and preferences. These are mine, and I hope they help someone!
