Omg! I saw the buyer re-listed the bag using all my pictures and descriptions. She didn't sell for a higher price than what she bought from me for, but it's crazy that she wouldn't even change the description.
Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

Why are you so surprised? This is allowed by Tradesy and in their terms. On the plus side, it makes it more likely that a buyer will easily relist an item rather than trying to force a return for an unfounded claim if they don't want the item. I do think it is weird seeing your own photos on another's listing, and there's the chance that the item doesn't look the same anymore if the buyer used it in any way before re-listing. Personally, I would take my own photos to relist .
this is interesting, b/c if someone were to steal your original photos it'd be copyright and taken down. but Tradesy actually allows a complete relist from purchased items in your history, without changes, so i guess because they paid for it (the buyer), the listing is now considered theirs and not yours?
Thanks! But under my sales it just says "completed" but doesn't say when my funds will be released. Is it 4 business days or 4 days total? I think today or tomorrow would be 4 days.
Oh, then I am ???
Maybe someone else can help. Otherwise I'd try to get Tradesy in chat when they are open and find out when you will get your money. Good luck!
There's another line in smaller text below COMPLETED that reads either "Your item is on its way to the buyer" or "Your item has been delivered. Your earnings will be available to withdraw October X, 2016 at X hour PST
They do seem to side with buyer and you have to repeatedly contact them if you're seller who knows the buyer lied to get funds back!
My listing said "completed" and that my earnings would be available on XXX. Then out of the blue I get an email stating that there was an odor and that my bag was at HQ and that my funds were pulled. I have sent them 4 emails with no reply but I hope that this is because of the weekend. This was a beautiful almost new bag with no smell. Thank you for your advice - I will keep emailing them and hopefully they restore my funds!
Good luck. I sent a video to show no marks several times and had to file complaint with BBB before they did the right thing.
TRADESY has a handbag I just listed 2 days ago on sale for 10% off. Will I still get the original amount of money for my payout?
I sold a vintage trunk using the tradesy label that was 55lbs - no issues!
You can use the Tradesy label. That's one thing I like about Tradesy's label--no worries about the weight!
Not till after numerous hours spent on my end calling and e-mailing them plus reporting them to the Better Business Bureau.
