Discussion The new AI listings are actively deceptive, and I hate it
Saw this listing with the new style of presenting items as AI generated floating/3D/ghost mannequin/whatever you call it. Besides the shape of the tank top not matching the actual item and the tag being removed, you can see how it turned the printed design on the actual top into embroidery.
If they end up transitioning to mostly or exclusively using this style, there's no way I'll continue buying from ThredUp. Does anyone know of the best way to complain about this? I feel like sending hate mail to their headquarters or something. Or a strongly-worded tweet, anyway.

Discussion $0.99 No More...
So, sadly, it appears that after increasing the quantity of items one can send in to sell as a cleanout in the box with item(s) you are returning - from 20 to 30 (which was not in practice that big of a change, since most boxes can not fit much more than 20 items anyways, especially if a few bulkier items or shoes are being sent), the "reduced service fee" for this now appears to have been increased to $4.99, instead of just $0.99!
I clicked through once today, more-or-less on "autopilot" to set up a return, and agreed to the increased fee without actually reading the fine print to notice the changed fee until reviewing the confirmation screen - as this has been the same $0.99 for ages. I don't think I will be sending more items to ThredUp to sell this way, with the 5X higher fee.
I assume everyone is seeing the change in fees? or is this increase "targeted", or account-specific, (since I have been using this option frequently)?

Haul Second natural fabrics haul for fall!
Everything was in great shape, and everything fit except the Free People crop top, (I always forget their stuff runs small!) which should fit fine by next spring when Iām ready for it again. (Or Iāll just sell it).
My fave pieces are the Maeve Mary Janes which are flawless, the skateboarding dog tee which has actual little gems on it which were hard to spot in the product photos, the good energy zip hoodie from Mighty Fine, and the oversized Def Leppard tee (the letters are metallic, also hard to spot in the product photos.)
The Poison tee is perhaps a bit more worn out than expected, but band tees always look good when theyāre well loved!
The Grateful Dead zip hoodie is for sure a menās rather than womenās, so it was miscategorized, but it fits oversized the way I wanted, just a teeny bit more lol. The weirdest part is, it doesnāt have pockets?! First hoodie Iāve ever bought without pockets, but not a dealbreaker. Also brand new!
I did say that this was my last fall haul, but I actually have two more small ones coming, because itās addictive, and I realized I needed some āadultā things, like boots for winter, and a good warm jacket, as I lost mine last winter when I left it at a surgicenter after a procedure, and it was never recovered š¤¦š»āāļø I kinda hated it anyway, so š¤·š»āāļøš¤
Anyway, this is fun! I love seeing what everyone is finding, and the best tips for navigating āUnbrandedā and āAssorted Brandsā (which is where Iāve scored some of my best items!!)
I have an Assorted Brands 100% leather jacket coming in my next shipment! Stay tuned šš§”
