THE EXPERIENCE
Shopping With Us
The RealReal is changing the way people shop, offering them a more sustainable alternative to fast fashion. Our members are drawn not only to our superior service and competitive pricing, but also because they share our values. Like us they are market savvy, brand aware, and luxury obsessed.
Why Shop With TRR
Guaranteed Authenticity
The RealReal is distinguished from other luxury resale companies. Discerning shoppers come to us—and keep coming back to us—because there is never any doubt about the authenticity or condition of any of the items we offer for sale. If we say it’s pristine Hermès, then you know it’s pristine Hermès.
Personalization
Using data and insights from seller and buyer history, we are able to make super-targeted suggestions for our members on a weekly basis.
Curation
Using our intelligence, instinct and expertise, TRR creates compelling, relevant, timely and engaging stories that highlight a selection of current luxury items. These stories come to life both on our digital platforms through photoshoots and curated sales, and IRL in our retail locations.
Education
We use every opportunity to educate our members to make smart shopping decisions based on fashion trends, market trends and potential resale value. The smartest shoppers also make the smartest consignors.
The TRR Approach
Mixing High and Low
The items we offer range from $50 to $50,000 and beyond. But we know full well that the real value of any bag or coat or watch is inextricably linked to the pleasure you get from wearing it. We encourage our members to follow their hearts, mix high and low, and develop their own unique style.
Mixing Current and Past Season
We are champions of mixing the old in with the new. This idiosyncratic combination of vintage and contemporary is something that we like to call 'era-fluid.' It's taking the best from the past (even if that past is, say, old Celine, or Prada from three seasons ago) and mixing it with what's next—and we curate these shopping experiences like no other retailer can.
One-of-a-Kind Pieces
Everything at TRR is, by definition, one of a kind. Trends come and go, but we give our members the chance to find something unique and personal to them, to find their personal style and really run with it.
“We are all about the balance between
scale and hand curation.”

The RealReal encourages members to keep tabs on items and develop a healthy obsession with various brands or specific pieces that have caught their eye by tagging them with a heart badge.

Shopper Profiles
Experience tells us that our members tend to fall into a handful of style profiles. We cater to their wants, needs and obsessions with curated editorials, stories, sales and promotions.
THE PRAGMATIST
The Pragmatist appreciates luxury and practicality and is brand loyal. The Pragmatist invests in well-made, timeless pieces to wear in everyday life.
THE CURATOR
The Curator is looking for the rare find or trophy piece and is willing to spend time and money to get it. Typically more refined, the Curator selects standout pieces to add to their collection and enjoys bringing them out at just the right moment.
THE INNOVATOR
The Innovator is younger and more willing to experiment, mixing high and low, and dabbling in a variety of styles. The Innovator follows trends, loves a bargain and is not loyal to any particular brand.
