Policies & FAQ

Secondhand clothing, sold by one person out of Gilbert, Arizona. Here is exactly what you get and what happens if something goes wrong.

Condition grading

Every piece is graded by hand and photographed as it actually is. Flaws are shown, not hidden.

New with tags — never worn, original tags attached.

Excellent — worn lightly, no visible flaws, no stretch or fade.

Very good — normal wear, nothing you would notice on.

Good — honest wear: light fading, softening, or a small mark that is photographed.

Fair — a real flaw, always described and priced for it.

Measurements are laid flat and listed in inches on most items. Vintage sizing runs small — go by the measurements, not the tag.

Shipping

Bundles

Save pieces with the heart on any listing. Three or more and the whole bundle comes off 15%, still on one $6 shipping charge. Tap Send bundle and it emails me the list — I will send back a single payment link.

Offers

Reasonable offers are welcome on anything that has been up more than a week. Email the item name and your number. Lowballs get a polite no rather than silence.

Returns — final sale

All sales are final. This is a one-person secondhand shop, not a retailer with a returns department. Buyer's remorse, changed mind, and fit issues are not returnable — that is what the measurements are for, and I will happily measure anything again before you buy.

The one exception, and it is a real one. If an item arrives materially not as described — a flaw I failed to disclose, the wrong size sent, or damage in transit — email me within 3 days of delivery with photos. I will make it right with a refund or a replacement. That protection is not negotiable and I will not argue you out of it.

Secondhand pieces are sold as-is otherwise. Normal wear consistent with the stated grade is not a defect.

Cross-listed items

Many pieces are listed here and on Depop, eBay, or Whatnot at the same time. First payment takes the item, and I pull it everywhere else the same day. On rare occasions two people buy the same piece within minutes of each other — if that happens, the second order is refunded in full, immediately, no questions.

Prices here are usually the lowest, because marketplaces take a cut of every sale and this site does not.

Payment & safety

Brands & authenticity

Brand names are used to identify secondhand goods and do not imply any affiliation, sponsorship, or endorsement. I do not knowingly sell counterfeits. If a piece is unbranded or I cannot verify a label, it is listed as unbranded. If you ever receive something you believe is not authentic, tell me and I will refund it in full.

Your information

I collect only what is needed to ship an order: name, address, and email. Payment data stays with Stripe. Nothing is sold or shared with anyone beyond the shipping carrier. Email me to have your details deleted after an order is complete.

Contact

Email hello@talkingwear.com — I answer within a day, usually the same evening. For anything about an existing order, put the item name in the subject line.
