Vestiaire Collective experiences?

[demicouture]

Has anyone else noticed that although their fees have NOT changed they only crop out the FIRST photo! Even on expensive items!!!
This is a joke!
So they take a crazy commission, can't always tell fake from genuine, pay you pretty much when they want AND only crop your 1st picture!
JOKE

... But yeah I still use them cause there is no one else out there at their "level" dare I say?!

Hmm, just as I thought I was rather happy with the site, I noticed that the Pay Pal option has disappeared and I need to give them my bank details and copy of ID with photo!? Seriously??

They have probably lost their PayPal account due to all the chargebacks and claims

I think you can still pay via pp? I just did a week or so ago.

Yeah, but I am not interested in buying. Gonna call them tomorrow. No way in hell I'm gonna give them my acc details and photo ID. Insanity.

I have done that when I started selling. They pay me on to my bank account.

Aren't you scared that they might store the info with insufficient security and the info might get into the wrong hands..?

No, not at all. I keep a bank account solely for being paid. Even if they wanted they could do nothing with it.

Byt they could use the ID information. In my part of Alaska, people are always strongly advised against giving away their social security number (combined w address) on the Internet, in written form etc.

I asked Vestiaire about this and they promptly replied and it seems like PP is working again, for me at least, for receiving payments.

I just ordered from this site yesterday (Sunday) and this thread has made me terrified ... However the item I order was a 24 hour shipping item and has already passed quality control and says its ready to ship.
Hope I receive my bracelet and everything ok

I believe the 24-hour ship time means that VC already has the item.

This is true but unfortunately, it doesn't make it authentic! Hopefully, they correctly identified it as authentic. Keep us posted.

Tuesday now and it's saying prepared for shipping since yesterday
I was expecting them to post it Monday as I ordered Sunday as most sites do
I don't expect to receive the item in 24 hours but I was expecting them to send it by now
I hope they send it today as I'm really nervous about whether I will receive it
From the photos it appears authentic so at the moment that's not worrying me but we'll see
I'll keep you all updated

I bought a 24 hour item before. Definitely took much longer to ship. They have the same stages/steps as non-24 hour items and so it takes longer than necessary.

I wish I had discovered this forum before going ahead and making an impulsive purchase of a Givenchy Lucrezia handbag from VC. I received the bag yesterday and to be fair the actual bag match the photo posted in the VC website. The condition of the bag is perfect. My problem was the actual Givemchy care card that came with the bag. I own a couple of Givenchy handbags purchased from Harvey Nichols and why I decided to buy online I'm actually fuming about. If you're a owner of a Givenchy bag purchased from a store you will know (or now know) that the care card has a code and a barcode! You can do a google search of these two codes and Google will show the exact bag that you purchased and also show the store where it was purchased from However, without an actual authentic Lucrezia handbag to compare my VC purchase to, to me it looks authentic in comparison to pictures online. On the other hand the care card is clearly not. The sticker with the two codes on the card is clearly photocopied and stuck on. I don't know how VC could have missed it! A bit of me think maybe I should ignore as its only the care card that I question but then again am thinking why would the seller throw in a fake care card if the bag is authentic? I'm confused? Also if it's a fake am worried it will show after a few uses e.g. the leather will rip or handle fall off etc. The bag was advertised without its detachable strap (which I didn't mind). I assumed the seller sold it for this reason but after seeing the care card and dust bag am unsure and can't seem to let it slide. I suppose even a bit of bargain it's still a lot of money spent on what could be a fake that only cost a few ££ to make. I've emailed VC yesterday but have a feeling this will be a long long process before anything is resolved!:cry: Please search the code it may help with your decision to purchase used goods!
