I get the feeling a good portion of the "buyers" who send you their sob stories and then try to haggle are totally full of it.
I got a request once along the lines of, "my mother was just diagnosed with terminal cancer and your bag would give her the joy she needs. She really needs something to cheer her up."
I just received an LV bag that I purchased and upon unpacking noticed that the sides of both handles, where the seams are, were sticky. (Seller did not mention anything about handles being sticky) I really love the bag and don't want to return it as the rest of the bag is in great condition. Do sellers/Tradesy ever offer partial refunds?
I also already had the bag authenticated earlier today and confirmed that it is real.

There are no partial refunds (as far as I know). It's all or nothing- either you keep it or you file a return and get your money back.
Thanks. I didn't think so but wanted to check. Either way I've contacted the seller - just waiting on a response.
And have you noticed how often they are buying things for their "mom"? I think that's for the sympathy card too, "aww how sweet", but a lot of times the item it is more edgy than I expect for a mom with a grown child.
I've got something similar from some low ball buyersand I've always felt tempted to say why don't you shop within your budget [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]
For Tradesy, you shouldn't expect the seller to do anything after the sale. Either you keep it or you return it to Tradesy. The seller won't be involved. That is one of the reasons I love to sell on Tradesy.
Wonder if it was the same mom with terminal cancer who just had to have a ruby ring of mine, too.
And to nicole's point above, I had that exact thought about those striped rockstuds. Wow. Your mom is really fashion-forward! Not that some aren't but wow.
I sold an LE pochette on Tradesy and the buyer asked a lot of questions, argued with me that it ALWAYS comes with the box and could I lower my price? When purchased it, I did not receive a box for it. I lowered to where I felt comfortable, and she bought it. It was brand new with the original receipt and gift bag.
When she received it, she immediately requested a return so my money was held up. When I saw it on the Tradesy site a few weeks later, there was no receipt or gift bag in in the listing! They were also asking $100 more than I had it listed for.
completely agree, and i wish there was a feature (like ebay has) to block certain people from bugging you. some people just ask so many questions for nothing, or want extra pics, or to haggle the price every day with a lowball offer... i want to just block some buyers and emails!
