Stay away from Geartrade!!! Stay away!!! Aweful experience with an order from Geartrade. They sent a completely wrong item in a correct box. To me, this means that there was a customer return (to Backcountry) and the customer scammed them or this was a parts takeoff from a compkete bike. Either way, no one confirmed that the product in the box was legit. Extremely frustrating! They sent a return label and I am waiting for my refund which they say they will send refund when the seller (Backcountry).Furthermore, their policy states that they don"t pay the seller until the item has been successfully received and accepted by the buyer. This means that you have my money and should refund me as soon as you got the email receipt from Fedex. I will never buy from Geartrade again and I spend a ton of money on outdoor gear. Geartrade is absolutely horrible. I can get an instant refund from Ebay and Amazon Warehouse...

Have been a longtime buyer and seller… Have been a longtime buyer and seller on Geartrade. Their customer service is always willing to do the right thing and solve any problem. Shout out to Scott for finding a solution on my last order where I needed a Black Diamond jacket that I ordered faster than I had originally selected. The service was prompt and the order showed up when I needed it. Hard to find service like this in a world of chat bots.

Excellent customer service I ordered some Chaco sandals for my son through this company because I found a good deal. We ended up having a problem with the sandals, a manufacturing defect. I needed to return them but it worked out good because he just could not get used to them and I was going to try to resell them. Customer service was wonderful, responding and giving me a hassle free refund. Great to work with!

Vague and Misleading Pricing Policy Geartrade has a very vague Pricing Policy that allows them to change your agreed-upon price whenever they want, without notice. I initially agreed to sell a pair of $250 bike shoes on their site for $125. After just over 6 months, they sold the shoes for $37 which netted me just $9.79. At no time did they notify me of any price change. When I reached out to them they said that, "After the initial 30 days of a Consignment item being listed, the price is reduced on a weekly basis to maintain pace with the depreciation of the item." Nowhere is their Pricing Policy does it state such practice. What it does say is, "Geartrade may decrease the price based on market conditions, demand, and seasonality." Although this broad statement questionably covers the aforementioned practice, this is completely misleading. No way would I have agreed to terms that depreciated my shoes by ~14% a month after listing for just 30 days. If this is standard practice for all gear consigned to their site, they should state so clearly. I am very unsatisfied with my experience and although I love recycling gear back into the stream, I assure you that I definitely will never do so with Geartrade again.

GearTrade is now 0 for 2 GearTrade is now 0 for 2, and I won’t be ordering anything from them again. My first order was for cycling shoes, but I received a completely different pair in a different size. Second order was for a cycling jersey described as “excellent”, when the zipper slide was no longer attached to the jersey. A Jersey without a working zipper, rated excellent? Ridiculous. Both items were sold by Backcountry, which apparently doesn’t adequately check the items they offer for sale on GearTrade.
