![]() ![]() If they don’t know the size of an item, they compare the item to their size chart and use that size. I only do it if the item is a very desirable brand, and I think people will take the risk to buy it without a guarantee that it will fit. These items must’ve slipped through during processing or their size tags fell off. I think the lack of sizes is why they ended up in a rescue box.įirst of all, thredUP states that it not accept items without a size tag. While I know this is to be expected from a rescue box, I was hoping for better brands.Īlmost 27% or 7/26 items did not have sizes on them. There were lots of typical mall and department store brands that don’t cost that much at retail and I wouldn’t normally source.Ī New Day is sold at Target. I’d prefer fewer tanks (low resale value) and more dresses, but that’s just my wishful thinking. I received 18 tops, sweaters, or jackets out of the 26 items. I liked Nike, Ultracool by Fabletics, Pretty Little Thing, and Allegri. I received better brands in this box than I did in my first ThredUp box. This one item has the potential to cover the cost of the whole box. It’s for sale on various websites around the web for about $40-55. ![]() The new with tag Nike sports bra retails for $55. I sometimes miss defects in items I purchase from the thrift store and try to make the best of it. ![]() I think this kind of thing is to be expected because items are second-hand. Two items were not in good enough condition to resell. The new with tag Pretty Little Thing sweater had a hole that might be fixable. Out of the 26 items, one had stains that I will try to wash out. ![]() The items were nicely packaged and mostly in good condition. These are the brands and items I received and their sizes. I had earned a coupon for free shipping, but you can’t use them on rescue boxes. With my credits, I paid $25.38 including shipping. Nonetheless, I had credits that were about to expire in a few days, so I took a gamble and bought the box. They also tend to be the items that ThredUp could get sell themselves, so not the best brands and pieces. My impression is that the clothing rescue boxes don’t have the same potential return. You don’t know if you’re going to get a hit or miss. If you get a Tory Burch bag, then you’ll definitely make your money back and then some. Those have the potential to give you the biggest return on your money. I’ve seen, heard, and read from other resellers that the best ones are the handbag and shoe boxes. The clothing box wasn’t my first choice, but it was the best of what was available. ***If you don’t have a thredUP account, you can sign up for a thredUP account and receive $10 to spend towards inventory to resell or something for yourself. ** If you don’t have a Poshmark account, you can receive a free $10 bonus when you sign up with my code SFGIRL2015.

It had been a long while since I shared my experience of purchasing a 50-piece mystery box, so I decided to give the mystery box another try.
