I have had mostly good experiences shopping and selling with VC, but I have been too scared to buy handbags and things like that, and have only bought clothes. I think it's great for French brands that, like someone else on here said, are often quite hard to get hold of in UK second hand stores. I love Zadig, Sandro, and brands like that, and VC often has new (with tags) or nearly unused clothes, listed by people who (like me!) often buy the wrong size, and then realise it..
I've had an easy time selling stuff on there actually. It does take a while to get paid, but the process is super easy, so for me that outweighs that aspect. The commission is super high, that is a bit annoying. I would probably sell somewhere else if I weren't so lazy.. So far I've mainly sold cheaper items; Zadig and Sandro dresses I'm too fat to wear, etc..
I have seen a lot of fake bags and also a couple of what I think are fake Isabel Marant boots. These one for instance are now relisted on VC for the fourth time I think it is now, all within a very shot time period:
http://www.vestiairecollective.com/women-shoes/boots/isabel-marant/black-leather-boots-937836.shtml. Do you guys think these are legit? The seller says that she's not sure that they are really the Jenny model, but what else could they be?
I'm also curious about this:
http://www.vestiairecollective.com/...ermes-arceau-watch-2014-like-new-964419.shtml. I've been dying to get a gold Arceau for some time now, but after having read this thread I'd be too scared to get it on VC I think! The seller also listed an Heure H around the same time as this one, which another member called her out on (to which the seller replied "Are you FBI?"). The seller claims that both watches were bought in Feb and March this year. Who buys two Hèrmes watches and then resells them on VC straight away? Also, on the Arceau, which was allegedly bought in Feb, it says that the battery was changed in March, isn't that weird? Do you agree that it's suspicious or am I just getting paranoid now
?
Hope someone here can help me out. I've sold a few items on the site and sent them to VC through the prepaid postal voucher from fedex (Items were sent from Denmark). This morning I received an invoice from Fedex for approx. 200 euros.. I had the understanding that when VC provided a prepaid shipping label, it would be free for me to ship it to them??
