The RealReal Customer Insights

1. I haven't tried the seller side yet but I'm reluctant to try it if buyers can't save things for later.I get many notifications from the app about sales, a specific designer or "that bag you wanted", but when I click the notification it takes me to completely unrelated page.

2. The search results don't really show up, you have no way of knowing how many items they have in the results, and no way to intuitively browse through categories unless you "search" for specific items.

3. Not only is it useless to try and look at anything white bc they photograph against hyper-white backgrounds (like trying to find a pile of powdered sugar on a snow storm) but if you click on something to look at the details or BUY IT, the app takes you back to the top of the page when you go back.

4. Would be nice to get order or sales updates, but I'd rather not have to be spammed with all their ad promotions on my notification bar to get them.I used to love this site.

5. However, I love that pictures of the items are displayed when you browse your order history.

6. and where the hell is the cart? I can't check out bc it's hidden now?Hopefully after the latest update is installed the app will be able to process search filters and browsing categories better.

7. Also, in order to track the progress of my items, I had to save a specific email and keep referring back to it.

8. The app is not easy to navigate you put in your options under refine and nine out of 10 times I had to reset it because it said that there was no clothing under my size small and shoe size 8 in women's.

9. The app really makes you never ever want to shop from this site.Attempting to refine your search for anything is futile.

10. They have cute stuff if you can get past the fill out what you want and size you wear and have it load properly.I love the idea and layout of the app.

11. I'd prefer to use an app instead of the website but until those are fixed, I'll stick to the normal website.Site is great.
