Store profile only: score excludes price. The RealReal is not part of our live price comparison, so we have no price or product statistics for it. Its score uses only the shopper facts below (reviews, delivery, duties, returns, authenticity, payment), re-weighted to 100%, and is not a like-for-like comparison with stores that have price data.

What shoppers should know.
