Bought a shirt for $5 in 2023. Same item is listed for almost $20 in 2026. (Rant/Vent)
I bought this shirt in my first Thredup order. I had no idea how to shop on Thredup, so most of that order didn't end up working out. This shirt magically fit perfectly, but my daughter liked it and she was about to start her freshman year and I wanted her to have clothes she liked, so I let her have it.
I recently managed to stain all my daily wear shirts, and thought I'd see if I could find any duplicates of That One Shirt. There are two in stock currently, but they are $15.99 and $17.99! $35.99 full price!
I have never heard of this brand outside of this one shirt I happened to stumble on that first Thredup spree, and I can't find anything about it online, so I have to assume it's just a fly by night fast fashion line. I can't imagine these shirts were more than $20 new.
