Using Threadflip's Concierge Full Service, women can order a closet refresh package in seconds from the company's mobile app or website. Threadflip then mails a free, prepaid shipping bag to fill and send back with items for sale. Threadflip professionally photographs and uploads the items to the marketplace within 24 hours. Once the items sell, women are given Threadflip credit that can be used to shop for other items within the marketplace or cash out.

Since then I've bought a bunch on Threadflip and I've also convinced some of my friends to use the service. This totally takes the guilt out of buying since I know I can sell it on Threadflip."
