TRENDFUL RESELL: AUTHENTICATION & RETURN ASSURANCE
What happens once you receive my bag? How long does the process take?
Once we receive your package, we will send a confirmation email of the item(s) received. Your handbag(s) will then go through our authentication and condition vetting process, which typically takes 24hrs.
Upon approval from our authentication experts, we will proceed with payment.
How do you authenticate handbags?
Creating a safe marketplace for users to buy and sell handbags is a key aspect of Trendful, and as such authentication is an integral part of our vetting process.
Therefore, every handbag goes through a rigorous in-house multi-point evaluation by our authentication experts. Our team of experts have years of experience in detecting inaccuracies and verifying authenticity.
Please do not submit inauthentic handbags as we will not be able to buy them!
Trendful is independent from any brand affiliation. Brands are not responsible for any product purchased from Trendful and do not guarantee the authenticity of goods sold. Authentication certificates are provided solely by Trendful.
Does the offer ever change after you receive my bag?
During our authentication and condition verification process, if we find any information that differs from what you initially submitted, your offer may be subject to revision.
Revisions to your offer may be due to condition, change in size, material, or handbag model variation.
If we have to revise your offer, we will, of course, contact you via email to ask for your approval before we proceed.
If you do not agree with our revised offer, we will send you your handbag back to you at no extra cost.
To avoid offer changes, please make sure that the information you submit is as accurate as possible and you have accounted for any signs of wear to your bag!
Would my bag ever not pass the authentication process?
If we receive your handbag(s) and they are not what was expected based on your submission, they may not pass our vetting process. You can avoid this happening by answering details and condition about your bag as accurately as possible.
Your handbag may not pass our vetting process if it is…
- Inauthentic
- In worse condition than expected (i.e. broken parts, odorous, damaged, etc…)
- Refurbished by a third-party repair service provider other than the Brand.
What happens to bags you don’t approve? Will you return them?
We will contact you for additional information if we cannot accept your handbag(s).
If you have already shipped your bag to us, it will be returned to the address on file with USPS and signature confirmation required. You may request for us to remove signature tracking, but Trendful cannot be held responsible for the package if it is not successfully delivered. Please note that there is a flat $10 fee for shipping back a refused bag.
I’ve changed my mind and want my bag back.
Once you have agreed to our offer and received your handbag(s), we are unable to send your bag(s) back to you. Once you click ‘Confirm & Ship my Bag’ you are agreeing to/accepting our offer. Please refer to our Terms of Service.
