I had a chanel handbag valuation appointment at 11 am. I called to let them know I was running late, but apparently they do not answer their phones. So I texted them, and I received the response “kk”. I arrived at 11:40 am. I was “greeted” by an exceptionally snippy man named Phil, who advised me that they would not be able to take me because I arrived late. I explained to him that I tried to call the store with no answer so I texted. I took the “kk” text response to mean that it was fine that I was running late. He said their phones are often down, and there was nothing he could do for me because they were expecting another valuation appt at 12 pm. I asked him if we could just start the valuation process since we had 20 minutes to 12, and if the 12 pm appt came in, I would gladly pack up and leave even if we were not finished. He said no because there “simply wouldn’t be enough time”. We back and forth for a couple more time-wasting minutes. (Honestly, I couldn’t believe how rude he was. Super uncomfortable.) I stood around for 15 minutes just in case the 12:00 didn’t show. They didn’t. And then I stood around for another 20 minutes until I was called in at 12:20. My appointment was finished by 12:40 (a 20-minute appointment that could have started at 11:40, go figure!). Very sub-par experience for an appointment where I’m trying to give them a $5000 handbag to sell. Needless to say, I did not proceed with consigning my...
Read moreAwful, I am a longtime buyer, have spent thousands in therealreal, but I buy 99% online. I have recently decided to sell off a lot of items, I sold 3-4 times already and just this sunday I went with 40 ITEMS! YES 40! Chanel tote bag, gucci bags and skirt and other luxury items to middle luxury. So these people are making a lot of money out of me as a buyer and seller. I get Asia as the helper, she starts by telling me false information which I tell is not true as someone who has bought and sold many times in therealreal. Since then her attitude gets all nasty, she forgot to add a cult Gaia tote so I asked her if we can review her list together because I want to make sure everything is accurate. She shoves the computer on my face which almost hit me. On top, she then forgets another item, misclassifies 3 other items I have and made doubles off two items. Just a huge mess, I spent almost an hour just there fixing the list, recounting items and such, not until someone else (im guessing the manager) took over was I able to sell smoothly. JUST...
