The world of online thrifting is growing fast — and for good reason. From vintage jackets to designer sneakers, the internet is full of hidden treasures waiting to be found. But with this growth comes a challenge: online thrift fraud.
Fake listings, edited product photos, and dishonest sellers have made customers more cautious than ever. At Lundapur, we believe that thrifting should be fun, affordable, and most importantly — fair.
Here’s how you can protect yourself from fraud and how we’re changing the game for Pakistan’s thrift lovers.
1. Always Check Product Authenticity
When buying from any online thrift store, take a closer look at:
- Brand tags and labels: Real brands have clean stitching, accurate fonts, and official care tags.
- Detailed pictures: Ask for close-up shots of logos, zippers, and inner tags.
- Price comparison: If something looks too good to be true, it probably is.
At Lundapur, every product we list — from Nike and The North Face to Zara and Patagonia — is carefully inspected and verified before upload.
We only deal in original and authentic items, and never in replicas or counterfeit goods.
2. Look for Honest Descriptions
Many online thrift sellers hide minor defects or avoid mentioning them. But as a customer, you have the right to know exactly what you’re buying.
At Lundapur, honesty is our foundation. We mention every small detail — from a missing button to a faint mark — directly in the product description. If there’s a visible flaw, you’ll know it before you buy.
Transparency builds trust — and that’s what Lundapur stands for.
3. Use Secure and Traceable Payment Methods
Never pay through random personal accounts or unverified links. Always ensure that payments go through secure platforms that offer transaction protection.
At Lundapur, all payments are made through Shopify’s secured checkout system, ensuring your data and money are always safe. We never store your payment information or share it with third parties.
4. Check Return & Exchange Policies
A legitimate thrift store will always have a clear and fair return/exchange policy. Fraudulent sellers often refuse returns or disappear after delivering defective products.
That’s not how Lundapur works.
If, by any chance, you don’t like your purchase — simply keep the tags intact and return it. You’ll only bear the delivery charges, and your refund will be processed right away.
For exchanges, if your replacement is of lower value, we even refund the difference — no questions asked.
5. Research the Seller’s Reputation
Before placing an order, always check for:
- Customer reviews
- Social media presence
- Transparency in communication
At Lundapur, we’re proud to have over 8,600 successful international thrift sales and a growing local community built purely on trust and satisfaction.
