[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve had better luck “thrifting” on EBay and Poshmark. [/quote]

Also, I shop a lot on TheRealReal which is not exactly cheap, but you are at least probably going to get something decently or well made. I'll happily pay $70 for a cashmere sweater on Postmark or RealReal instead of $10 for a polyester Target sweater at a thrift store.

I shop mostly secondhand, but I prefer to hunt down specific pieces I need (i.e. "warm sweater dress, neutral V neck cardigan, or burgundy slouchy crossbody bag) than just randomly trolling thrift stores hoping for a miracle. Unfortunately hidden gems are few and far between now that resellers pick things up immediately and plenty of the good stuff doesn't make it out on the floor. [/quote]

But can you try on and return? I never know until I put something on if it's going to work. [/quote]

With Poshmark you can't return. It's best to stick to brands you know your size in.

With the RealReal some items (full price or close to full price) are returnable. For discounted items that aren't usually returnable you can buy a "return guarantee" to give you that option. I think for a $100 item I paid $12 for a return guarantee. [/quote]
