Remember back when I did a thredUP review? No? Let me find it for you… here it is! I’ve been shopping them periodically ever since then, with some hits and some misses, but I just got my latest order and loved absolutely everything in my polka-dot box, so I have them on the brain.
Anyway, they have a new offer out for first-timers, just in case you haven’t taken the plunge yet. Go register at thredUP and you can take 40% off your first order with them by using coupon code JU40. This is a way better deal than their customary free $10 to spend, if you’re ordering a bunch, so get on it. And hurry, too—the code is only good this weekend, and then the deal is over.
(My tip, if you’re new and feeling overwhelmed: Shop brands/cuts you already know and love. Every item I’ve gotten from thredUP has been in impeccable condition, so the disappointments have been stuff that didn’t fit, not items that weren’t as they appeared. This last package was all t-shirts from my favorite brands and I’m a happy shopper.)
Just placed my first order, seems like a good deal. Have you sent stuff in to sell before, just wondering if it’s worth it?
As much as I love shopping with them, the consensus on my original post and across the web seemed to be that the payout is pretty low. (Makes sense, given how reasonable their prices are.) I’d rather donate stuff to Goodwill for the tax write-off, personally, but to each her own.
