I wasn't aware about eBay 6 month window, bummer! I haven't sold there in 10 years by now. Back then when I did a closet purge all my items sold quickly and without any hassle. My how times have changed .

From my perspective I find returns relating to authenticity is easier to deal with as I clearly steer clear of the LVs and Chanels of the super fake world. Since I know and can readily verify authenticity of my products there's not much gueswork involved. I always use the max 12 pics, but for slightly used items I do get paranoid that maybe I missed something, or that buyers take my description for condition as the end all and be all which it's never meant to be as I couldn't possibly capture every single flaw.

Overall I find Tradesy has been very fair with my returns, I can only remember 2 items being returned to me in 18 months while the rest ended up in their closets and all been sold since as well. I give myself a little pat on the back that ppl change their mind but my items are appealing enough for the next buyers.
 
So, I just had a weird thing happened. I bought two YSL bags from a seller and then a few hours later I got a notice that one was "cancelled," but the other one wasn't. So, I go to message the seller and their profile is gone!! I can't pull them up anymore. I go to my purchases and it says one is cancelled and the other one is just waiting for their confirmation.

I contacted Tradesy, but in the meantime, what the heck happened? What happened to their closet? They had 8 YSL bags that had all just been recently listed and sold because they were priced pretty decent, but not too cheap. They were real from what I could tell from the pictures, the pictures showed the serial numbers and everything.

I'm confused.

Most likely Tradesy shut down this seller's account. has she sold something else before you placed the order? previous buyer might have problem with them or Tradesy intercepted if they saw suspicious activity like too many orders were cancelled. I'd steer clear.

Surprisingly, Tradesy responded to my email within an hour and refunded me my money. That was cool.
She had sold a few YSL purses before me, but they were all fairly new listings because I saw them in the "recently listed" portion of Tradesy. But I'm glad Tradesy looks out for us in this kind of suspicious activity. And I'm glad I got my money back in both purchases! I was just curious what happened, never seen that.
 
I just purchased two items on Tradesy on Friday, one was delivered yesterday, so I just checked the status of the other one since it had been shipped but it has not arrived yet. It turns out that it was shipped from Canada! That's fine, but I didn't see anywhere on the listing or on the seller's profile page that they were an international seller. Maybe that is because I am on the app? Is it more obviously shown on the desktop version of the site?
 
Holy Super Speed Batman!!!! :amazed:

Bought a bracelet on Tradesy on the 9th..
Used AFFIRM (which I love btw)
Seller still had not shipped Friday so Tradesy sent an email offer to cancel..
I really wanted that bracelet so I waited and waited... Still nothing.. 11 Days later.. :sad:

So I finally gave up replied to their email that sadly, I needed to cancel as at this point, I don't have any faith in that seller at all.
POW! In less than 10 mins they cancelled, refunded & Affirm sent an email confirming a refund..

It made my head spin!
I tell you Tradesy has improved so much! I'm really, really impressed. I have a bunch of Balenciaga items to sell and that's where I'm going to list 'em.
A++ for Tradesy!! :tup:

Question - when you use affirm doesn't your credit get "dinged" every time you make a purchase using their service?
