Buyer FAQs
How does buying on Thrivvy work?
When you place an order, Thrivvy arranges pickup of the item from the seller’s doorstep via our shipping partner Aramex. The item is sent to our warehouse, where it is verified, inspected, and cleaned. Only after passing inspection do we ship it to you. This ensures you always receive authentic, quality-checked items.
Is everything authentic?
All items are thoroughly inspected and verified by Thrivvy before being shipped to buyers. For branded items, authenticity checks are conducted at all times. Sellers must provide clear photos of tags and labels, along with any available proof of authenticity. If an item fails inspection or verification at any stage, it will not be shipped to the buyer and will be returned directly to the seller.
How long does delivery take?
Delivery may take up to 7 days. This time allows:
- Item pickup from the seller
-Inspection & cleaning at Thrivvy warehouse
-Final shipment to you
Who pays for delivery?
Buyers pay the delivery fees on top of the order price at checkout.
Can I return an item?
Return Window
Buyers may request a return within 24 hours after receiving their order. Requests submitted after this period will not be accepted.
Return Conditions
To be eligible for a return:
- The item must be in the same condition as received (unworn, unused, no extra wear, with tags).
- The item must be clean and free from additional damage.
- Proof of purchase / order number must be provided.
Return Process
How to request a return
To initiate a return, please contact us via Instagram, WhatsApp, or email at marketing@thrivvy.fashion within 24 hours of delivery.
Inspection & verification
All items are carefully inspected and verified at Thrivvy’s warehouse before shipping to ensure authenticity and quality.
For branded items, authenticity checks are conducted at all times, and any authenticity mismatch results in automatic rejection and return to the seller.
Because this inspection and verification process is already completed before delivery, a return service fee applies to buyer-initiated returns.
Return fee
For buyer-initiated returns (e.g., change of mind or item doesn’t fit), Thrivvy covers the return shipping cost for both the buyer and the seller. Therefore, a 150 EGP non-refundable return service fee applies.
This fee covers authentication, inspection, and two-way logistics already completed before delivery and will be deducted from the refund amount once the return is approved.
After return
Once the item is returned to Thrivvy’s warehouse, it will undergo re-inspection and verification:
- If the return is approved, the refund will be issued.
- If the return fails inspection (item not in the same condition, missing tags, additional wear, etc.), the refund will be denied, and the buyer will be required to cover delivery fees to have the item shipped back.
Refund Method
Refunds are issued to the original payment method, except for cash on delivery payments, which will be refunded via Instapay or mobile wallet transfer only.
Refund processing may take 7–10 business days after inspection.
Non-Returnable Items
Any item that is not in the same condition as when received, including items with missing tags, that are not clean, show extra wear, or have additional damage.
Exchanges
Exchanges are not available. If you would like a different item, a new order must be placed.
Damaged or Wrong Item

Disputes
Items are inspected and verified at Thrivvy’s warehouse before shipping to buyers. For this reason, buyers cannot dispute items that passed inspection and verification.
