❌ Cons of Selling on Chairish
1. High Commission Structure
Chairish charges:
- 20% for items under $2,500
- 12% for items over $2,500
- 30% if you opt into the Free Returns policy
You’ll need to price accordingly to maintain margins.
2. Listing Approval Process
All listings are manually reviewed. It can take 24–72 hours for your item to go live, and some items may be rejected.
3. High Expectations for Photos and Descriptions
Buyers expect clear, staged photos and thorough listings. Sloppy uploads don’t perform well.
4. Limited for Low-Value Furniture
Chairish is best for mid- to high-end furniture. Mass-market items or worn-out pieces may not be approved or won’t sell well.
5. Slow Moving for Niche Styles
Vintage and designer items may take weeks or months to sell. Patience and pricing strategy are key.
