Candle Light high end stuff always hits the consignment markets. Even if it’s your dead grandma ‘s old gucci belt, some picker snapped it up to up-sell when the family donated it. Even Goodwill has sold on eBay and now have their own site. This sounds good, like she is a hero or something. Even if she dumped it at the Salvation Army, it’s not going on a container ship to east Africa. So she’s still a mindless consumer (with not a strong style) patting herself on the back. Frankly she could edit more and have stronger point of view than “fun” (code for she’s got nothing here) The story misses the boat on how pervasive it is now for even college girls to have landmark bags like LV rather than affordable ones. I mean 40 years ago white collar working women wore JC Penny accessories, they didn’t go into a month’s wage for a lambskin Dior. So RR’s win is this mainstreaming of luxe goods in middle class aspirational households. People are still buying fast garbage fashion as a balancing of their budget, but they will happily pair Target clothing with a Gucci mule. WSJ...can you not did deeper? I subbed bc I thought you’d do more than congratulate a glorified thrift store.

everything had value... those brand product also can be sale at pawn shop....

Most rich people don’t live like how you think rich people live. Of course there are rich people that do flaunt their wealth and spend a lot of money and waste a lot of stuff, but a good majority of rich people live modestly and carefully and you wouldn’t even realize they were wealthy.

Most lower class/non rich people in advanced countries do at least half of the stuff you mentioned though

@@pine6193 Key here is "in advanced countries", "advanced" is really a substitute word for "rich". And yes they do possess some wastful habits that are typical for rich people, because they are only "lower class/non rich" in relative terms, but in absolute terms -- they are rich.

@Mr. Dodo when idiots get money, time for a recession

@@TheVancouverJatt they all finance by wall street..

mac berry Fashion and textiles were extremely expensive prior to industrialization. Clothing as investment is far from new.

I guess King Tut clothing is cheap Roll eyes*

@mizzmolly these luxury goods are considered expenditures not investments coz if you sell these especially pre loved items they depreciate in value coz they are already used items. investments is that you gain profit from it.

checharin4 that’s a rip rip

@kj You can just go to a real store ....ask them is this real? sales clerks are good at know their own prduct. these folks have been sued by Chanel for selling fake Chanel. I wont shop there.

I thought the same thing too, how can they effectively authenticate all the stock, That's why I buy direct from the luxury houses. I can sleep without a doubt my goods are real and I have ownership of the receipts.

SCREW THE THE PRIDEFUL, TELLIn me its only there way, free will free speech free guns and all gun accessories for all

Nino Samsonadze that’s why I never buy pre loved items, I would rather save and get my brand new one from the store knowing I’m getting the real thing. For selling, I’m afraid I will send my bags and get fake one in returns if they don’t sell or don’t like their prices.

JohnDoe Kassem Exactly same.

Christian Munoz no

mustang61 you might wanna do some google searches before writing no. Chanel is suing them and you can read up on it on WWD and several other sites that are reporting on it.

Because these brands want you to buy at their store. It’s a competitor really.

Yes

You guys obviously didn’t watch the entire video.

Glenn Harrigan Exactly. I bought a pair of Saint Laurent sunnies from them and returned them back as they did not suit me. And they never refunded me. I’ve kept chasing them for months and received no response. DO NOT buy things from TRR.

Glenn Harrigan my aunt got ripped off too after the real real came in to buy some stuff and didn’t give my aunt the full payment she asked for. The real real “already sold the clothes” so my aunt couldn’t even get the articles back. It’s a nice idea to recycle clothes but they also have some sketchy business practices because, of course, profits come first.

MITCHELL WIGGS very true. They take 50% commission. Sucks.

She already explains that she doesn't want to mess with camera equipment, photography, correspondence and shipping. She's a rich woman who wants to unload her stuff easily and values her own time.

Spunkymunky lol “camera equipment” like a phone. She can enjoy getting ripped off if she’s that lazy 😂

@@MitchellWiggs do you even know how nasty people are? Just try to sell clothes (Zara or H&M) on sites like vinted and look what happens. You will get tons of messages asking for discount, more pictures or even rude ppl complaining about the price. For some people it is indeed better to sell it with 50% comission.....

Nellie E I wouldn’t bother even selling clothes from Zara or h&m, they have no value at all. You’re better off donating them since they’re just quickly made massed produced junk.

So like most companies are.

Welcome to the working class bud

Yah why couldn't they get an actual professional authenticator

Too bad his shirt is actually Lanvin, a designer brand, it retails for around $290

You are on a different Level to understand this sort of things

@@N.biebie8428 I guess I'm on a different level for knowing how to google a designer dinosaur print shirt.

the shirt and his stacked rings are trendy. he could probably get a shirt like that at a thrift store, but probably paid $$$ for a designer version

Geralyn Hopson saw reviews about people buying stuff out there that are fake. And if you're a seller they will sell your stuff lesser than the value without your permission... Try searching for reviews online..

Yolanda M. omg ikr!! And you could find good things for cheap

Dillon May exactly!

Yolanda M. It was a secret for 5 years

Don't worry ladies, just wait for the next 'secret' site to come along. Don't worry, there will be one.

italotter you sound like you know a secret

You think so what's the difference in the prices the real REAL charge to much you can buy the same item brand new

not extra income.. just a little better than pawn shop...

💯 agree!!!

That’s how consignment works though

@Marcus Motamedi Stop with the conspiracy theories. It's just a fact that TheRealReal sells fake items.

Thought the same

Knowing TheRealReal's reputation, that could be a forever 21 dress sold as Alaia.

@Joey Lynn haha classic

YoshiPeach Mario that's stereotypical..

@Joey Lynn If you take the time to do some research she is "a freelance writer" and her husband is president of Christie's for North and South America. I'm sure her income as a freelance writer publishing a couple of articles in conde nast magazine each year make her rich enough to buy all these clothes/bag/shoes.

Joey Lynn The guy's still right though haha

@Alain Portant why so mean?

What are thoseeee

Trapbaby Jesus original

NFLceez they are Gucci Princetown slides. I’m not sure of the pattern name.

Drejas ASMR I bought those exact shoes from the Real Real! It’s why I even click on this video!

Sadly from beginning of the world people judge you from what you were this are humans

They always have, unfortunately

👍

Buying second hand is better for the environment.

well... it just not for you then.. but when you had limited edition and alot of people want.... go to them is better than auction.....

AGREED

SO TRUE

The bags have two hands???

nunga cynderilla I don’t trust anything that is not coming from the boutique or Mall, that’s just me.

@Joey Lynn Yeah and anyone can buy a Ferrari if they had the money.

I'm not rich and I but stuff from them. They have really good prices on a lot of things

No idiot. Ebay does not have a store. That why they are able to sell you a bit cheaper

who has time for it though?

Really, they always Do it Like a E entertainment, Why MEN GAY ALWAYS trying to sound LIKE women?

Virginia Campodonico I'm a GAY man and don't sound "like a woman". I wonder why certain people write idiotic comments without take a minute to think.

@@virginiacampodonico5215 learn English! 🖕🖕

Marcus Motamedi hahaha 😂

donna ko it's not that big of deal he just means that due to her small size she has clothing that can very easily be sold to other customers of small sizes considering larger sized high end pieces are not in demand

@@andyp21ap people of ALL sizes like nice things.

@@donnako2530 Most people buying on The Real Real are size small. Yes curvy girls like nice things but most of the demographic buying these items are size small. Its just facts. Dont get upset about it (coming from a curvy girl). They still sell large and xlarge on their site.

Clinton Gwanyama story time? Please elaborate hahah

I hope you get your money back!

At 500.00 you should've known it was fake.

Em Me Gucci Princetown slides. Unsure of print name.
