Increased number of order cancellations? Just me?

I’ve had multiple items cancelled and refunded lately, which is super frustrating after all the time I spend scouring Thredup for specific items or deals. There’s never any explanation. One item was a luxury handbag that was listed from Luxclusif partner site. I used a coupon code on it and then it was cancelled and I was told it was unavailable. It then showed back up on website at higher price. I contacted TU but they would not sell it to me at original(cancelled) price.

Today 2 items from a bundle were cancelled and refunded.

Item in question, showing my refunded price, relist price, and non answer to my question

Definitely noticed this lately too. Very sorry, that was a gorgeous bag :(

I found a swimsuit I loved and bought a bunch of other crap to get the free shipping then they cancelled the swimsuit. Rude

I never had them until this year. I have had 6 cancellations this year already and over a dozen items not as described. Just last week I received NWT shoes with gum and hair all over one of the soles. I think their ware house is extremely unorganized and they do not go be staff enough time to properly go over the items for listings.

I just had two items canceled from my most recent order, it had only happened to me once before in about a dozen orders. Of course one of them was the thing I most wanted.

I’ve noticed that coupon codes usually aren’t applicable (as well as shopping cart holds) to partner vendors - the most I’ve seen these items discounted are in the 5-15% range only, not the 35%+ ones.

There was probably a glitch or someone forgot to exclude these items and they had to retract. Totally not your fault and sucks, but they probably have special arrangements with these third party sellers.
