Former Employee Says The RealReal Sells Fake Luxury Goods Online And Knowingly Authenticates Them

Many women shop at The RealReal because of the lower prices that just aren't available when you purchase luxury fashion items straight from the brand. The website describes itself as an "authenticated luxury consignment," and you can buy anything from Christian Dior handbags to Gucci sneakers to designer jewelry. But an interview from a few years ago featured a former employee who says there are many fake items that get authenticated on the site. This claim has only gotten bigger and bigger over the last couple years.
