A girl told me she was paying in a separate account because when a new account is opened you get $25 the first purchase

I created a second account in a hurry because their log in wasn't working at the moment and I saw a steal on a Louis. Then I found out I got $25 off on top of that, which was nice because when I originally joined I never used it because I forgot about it!!! ALSO, you can refer a friend and they get $10 off their first purchase and $10 credit to yourself. I haven't made another account for that reason, but I'm sure people do!

Has anyone had a potential buyer ask for express overnight shipping? She said she needs the bag tomorrow etc. I explained I can do express for an extra fee but there is no way I can promise she will have the bag tomorrow because Tradesy must confirm the sale. She has asked me to use fedex and sent me several messages on how she must have the bag because she is leaving the country. I should add she did the same thing about a week ago, saying she had to have the bag the next day. I was out of town so back then I told her no as well. I may be paranoid but I am getting a bad feeling.

Sounds fishy to me. Seems like she's trying to get you to ship/do sale outside of Tradesy.

AVOID!!! Always listen to your gut. She is being too needy.

That's another reason I like to use Tradesy's shipping label. They don't take the 9% out of their label.

I used it once I believe, but I wanted to add insurance and signature confirmation this time. Is it offered with their label?

I've never had that happen! My shipping cost is what I get in full, no matter what.

Good to know! I contacted them to double check, I couldn't find anywhere in the policy.

Thank you for replies!

They take commission on shipping if you don't use label to avoid people circumventing fees

/QUOTE]

They don't offer than on their label (albeit, they should have one for all of that) That's why I do my own for my more expensive items. I definitely want good insurance (not the $50 they use) and proof it was delivered so my designer bag isn't on someone's hot porch.

Over $500 includes signature confirmation. I'm not sure what their current insurance coverage terms are. They seem to change every so often.
