“Love This Site”

Kanisha L.
4/22/20

I have purchased 3 beautiful bags from Fashionphile, and I currently have one on reserve. All of my bags were purchased at way below retail, and they're all in pristine condition. I cannot say enough positive things about this site. All of my bags came with super fast, free and easy shipping. I would definitely recommend them to any and everyone.

Quick, reliable, easy shopping, always. It is a comfort to know you are backed by authenticity, and return policies if needed but my experiences have been stellar each time because the pictures are so thorough and accurate. Happy shopper.

I love my new purse but I wished you would mention in the listing that the purse is not always original. I purchased a vintage petite noe thinking it was well taken care of. But I am learned that it has been intensively repaired and the date code isn't visible. Whether the repairs have been done by you or the selling client, it should be mentioned for the next buyer to know. Some of us would like to know the history of the bag. Prices are steep for something intensively repaired.

Reason I chose this business:

Fashionphile does have good quality bags. Prices are steep for something intensively repaired, though.

I don't think it's good customer service to make me foot the bill for returns: i live 100s to 1,000 of miles away from an actual store to simply walk into a store to return. Makes me less likely to order again unless I've seen the product in person. That was disappointing

Reason I chose this business:

I saw good reviews on YouTube. I wanted authentic luxury at a more affordable price.

It's very smooth and easy to use the website. The descriptions are accurate. The assessment of the product in terms of the condition is very good. I gave it 4 stars because, though I don't think they have much control over that, the color online is very different I person. The green I received is much lighter than the green on screen and gives me pause.

Reason I chose this business:

Fair prices and very good products. In the short time I learned of them I have bought several products. They are also well presented.

Great easy to use

I came across Fashionphile and stated scrolling through the list of designers and items available. I then remembered items I had been wanting. So, I looked them up and to my surprise found them. The price was fair and comparable and knowing it's backed by Neiman Marcus, I felt secure about purchasing and I did.

Reason I chose this business:

It is backed by Neiman Marcus. I feel confident and secure about my purchase. Their reputation is attached to Fashionphile.

I was expecting a Chanel dust bag with my purchase as advertised but a day or so after my order someone reached out and advised that it was a mistake and did not come with a Chanel dust bag but instead a fashionphile brand dust bag. I didn't mind because I was excited to get my actual Chanel bag. Instead they gifted a nail file. It would have been nice to get a small discount or credit. But overall my bag is beautiful! And I'll just buy a dust bag later on!

Reason I chose this business:

The price was fair!

It wasn't a issue at all. But i think we can blame it on the weather (anxiously waiting for the package for a week bought it 10/06 send it 10/08 received it 10/15). Its good that they need a signature to received the package. Its more of like safer that leave it outside the door. Thank you fashionphile

Reason I chose this business:

Ofcourse…. Meticulously inspect and honest on their product and they are look brand new. I am more of like comfortable of the item and not worried that its fake.

I enjoy fashionphile I think they're a little pricey but their descriptions are great and I trust its authentic product. That being said I think price points could be a little better. I'm a long time fashionphile customer and I was very displeased to learn they now charge for returns (deduct from refund). It's very discouraging to want to order items now because I know I'm gonna have to pay $15 to return it. I think everyone should only keep items they LOVE and will truly use. I stand by stores that also believe in this and therefore offer free returns. I am now reluctant to order. I am pretty good at ordering what I believe I will love so that I save myself that trip to UPS or FEDEX but sometimes items just don't work out the way we think they will.

Reason I chose this business:

Trustworthy

Love fashionphile

Item ariived in good condition. However, the package did not contain a return label which is supposed to be provided. Also, the bag was not in the dust bag and was laying in the Chanel box without any protection.

I called to ask for a prepaid shipping label since o e wasn’t included in The package and was e mailed one immediately.

I've eyeballed several emprientes over the last few months. Decided to ask for some more pics, since the listing stated some wear. I found the bag in overall good used condition. Nothing major that kept me from purchasing. They emailed me all the additional pics requested. I would say the only disappointment is when it lists it comes with a dust bag, it's the FP branded bag, not the LV dust bag.

Reason I chose this business:

After watching several bags, even through other sellers, FP has a nice return period, shipped it quick, and guarantees their authenticity. They have a nice selection of bags overall

Reason for giving a 4-Star, is because the ring and diamonds looked much bigger than in person. However, it fits prefect, and the clarity of the diamonds is gorgeous. Arrived on time, came securely packed and nicely wrapped.
Thank you FASHIONPHILE,

Reason I chose this business:

I feel the company is honest, merchandising is proven to be authentic and I feel confident when purchasing from a legitimate company. Also, navigating there website to view or purchase is very user friendly.

UPS had to reattempt delivery 3x because i always miss them. Im not allowed to customize delivery by changing the delivery date or options for UPS storepickp instead. I asked help from Fashionphile agent and FP cant change the delivery options on their end either. Its a total waste of UPS carbon footprint having them attempt to deliver to me 3x when i can just pick it up at store or schedule it when im sure to be at home. Also its 95 degrees outside for UPS to waste their energy on all this.

Fashionphile is one of the easiest transactions I had when coming to preloved items. When I purchased my Louis Vuitton Steamer Messenger, it was listed as excellent condition. I received the bag and it was like new. A scratch, a spot, very unnoticeable wear, and a distinct scent of a "closet" in the bag was the only issues, but all is really invisible to naked eye and the scent can always be fixed.

My only issue is the shipping. My item shipped on 07/08/2024 but I received it on 08/01/2024. Although shipping was free, I would rather have the option to pay for the expedited shipping to ensure arrival of my item. While I was waiting, I was worried that it got lost in transit.

Emails were true to point, but I always get a near similar or duplicate response after replying to their initial response.

Reason I chose this business:

Using Fashionphile felt very luxurious. Easy to navigate and utilize. Fashionphile has amazing deals! What's best is that they notify you when your searched item is on sale or in stock!

Item came fast and in perfect condition. The only problem was that the specific bag comes with a crossbody strap (MONTAGNE BB) whereas for some reason i received a shoulder strap which is much shorter.

I visited the San Diego flagship store. Unfortunately, they did not have the item I was looking for in stock locally. However, the NY Flagship location did. I made the purchase in-store with estimated deliver of "later the same week" The item was listed as Shows Wear. It arrived over a week later and even a day later than the shipping company confirmed. Item was visibly in expected condition, although to my disappointment, it had a horrible bengay like smell. After some research, it appears the smell is a result of moth balls. For was not disclosed. If it had been, I would have passed on the item.

Reason I chose this business:

I trusted the item would be authentic. I believe FASHIONPHILE to be the only resale outlet consumers can truly rest assured they’re receiving authentic luxury items.

I was a little concerned on the shipping process as the bag was delayed with UPS & I didn't get updates on delivery after the delay was sent so I couldn't track it as I needed to sign at delivery. My bag arrived a day late but was in good condition, just concerned as I couldnt Track delivery.

The description of the condition of the bag wasn't fully accurate. The pockets are stretched out, which wasn't in the description. Also, on the inside pocket, there is a huge area where the burgundy color wore off. I didn't see a picture of that. Nevertheless, it is a nice bag and for a Chanel bag, I got it at a great price. Also, for a 2008 bag, it is in a great condition.

Reason I chose this business:

Fashionphile usually has accurate descriptions/pictures of their items. Also, their return policy is quick and easy.

I have purchased multiple handbags from Fashionphile. Overall I have always been satisfied. I do feel like some of their handbags listed as 'excellent' have not been in excellent condition to my standards. I recently purchased a Birkin 30 in excellent condition and some of the hardware is extremely scratched up. I do love the bag and plan on keeping it but will ask Her es the next time I'm there to replace some of the hardware. The handbag should have been listed as very good, not excellent in my opinion.

Reason I chose this business:

The wide variety of items and I do trust their authenticity.

From the business

FASHIONPHILE is a leader in pre-owned luxury, we BUY and SELL ultra-luxury accessories. We offer the largest selection of the world’s most coveted designers, including rare, vintage, and limited edition items.

We want to buy your luxury pieces and are committed to providing you with the highest payout value. FASHIONPHILE provides you with quick, safe, and simple methods to unlock the investment that is currently sitting in your closet.

Business Highlights

  • 100% authentic, guaranteed
  • The largest selection of ultra-luxury
  • Selling made simple. We pay upfront

Business History

On the surface, FASHIONPHILE is about making pre-owned, ultra-luxury goods accessible. Rare pieces? We have them. Your favorite wishlist item for a steal? We’ve got that, too. We’re about guaranteed-authentic Holy Grail products in great condition, and quick buy-outs on pieces you’re ready to sell.

But then, FASHIONPHILE is also so much more.

It’s the idea that what you want, can (and should) be yours. That luxury isn’t synonymous with hard-to-get and harder-to-pay-for. That without a doubt, there’s nothing better than the real thing. And that when we create sustainable, practical solutions — for even the most luxurious of things — we not only make life better but frankly, more fun.

As the very first ultra-luxury re-commerce brand of its kind, FASHIONPHILE is the brainchild of Founder and President, Sarah Davis. Like most of the brands we love best, FASHIONPHILE began in 1999, with little more than a good idea. In 2006, Sarah introduced business partner & CEO Ben Hemminger, who evolved the brand by expanding the collection and presenting it to a larger market. Over 20 years later, FASHIONPHILE is now one of the world’s top resellers of pre-owned luxury and the exclusive re-commerce partner of Neiman Marcus.

In the words of Geoffroy van Raemdonck, CEO of Neiman Marcus Group, “FASHIONPHILE’s hyper-focus on curating high-quality supply and providing best-in-class shopping experiences makes it the ideal partner.”

When Neiman Marcus calls you ideal, you blush and just, well, let it in.

Our promise to you.
Our customers don’t take promises lightly, and neither do we. The four you see here represent our deepest dedications, explorations, and well, our values at our core. We hope you take them to heart the way we have.

1. We make authenticity our first priority.
And we don’t just mean our handbags, although authentication of our products is essential and come first in all we do. It’s why we’ve literally written the book on authentication, and why our process is one of the most in-depth in the industry.

2. When we want something, we’re all in.
Most other resellers operate on a consignment basis. That means that when you sell a bag, you won’t receive a payment for the item until they sell it. Which could literally take weeks or even months — if ever.

At FASHIONPHILE, we like clean slates and clear terms. So to our sellers, we offer full buy-outs on nearly every item, with immediate payment processing after the item arrives and is authenticated. And to our buyers, we offer a 100% authenticity guarantee, point blank period.

3. The best service, always.
We provide many ways for you to buy and sell ultra-luxury to make your experience, well, luxurious. This includes free shipping and free returns (U.S. Only, see page for terms). Want to try something out but don’t want to commit? We have a BuyBack Program for that. Reserve Luxury Layaway which allows you to buy an item using payment installments over time so you can buy that must-have bag now even if you don't yet have all the funds available.

We know that shopping online can leave you wanting more detail about your future luxury purchase, that is why we have Personal Shoppers available for any questions that you may have about a particular item.

4. We value what’s unique in people, in pieces, and in perspectives.
There is no art — and indeed no fashion — without depth and range of perspectives, backgrounds, experiences, and tastes.

As our Founder herself so aptly put it, “the more diversity we share — in perspectives, in ethnicity, in skin color, in culture, in sexual orientation, in religion and in all aspects of life, the better the product we produce and the better we are able to serve our diverse customer base.”

In alignment with those values, we’re truly proud and a little humbled to say that over half of our staff are currently people of color. Their presence makes our team better, more creatively and culturally diverse, and more aligned with the people we serve.

And like every person (regardless of their differences), our entire team is always growing, learning, and improving. We actively seek ways to better serve our customers and community, especially those who are historically underserved. If you ever have a question or concern, about any topic, we’re here.
