Awhile ago they sent out a letter that said that if you became verified, they would release your money sooner. I'm not verified. I don't want to give them that information. In most cases, my money is still being released on the fourth day. It is only when the buyer returns the item, for any reason, that the money is held longer.
Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

It's not a new thing, maybe you haven't mentioned it until you sold a "designer" item. in this case Tradesy can hold your funds for 4 days for verified sellers, and up to 21 days for non-verified sellers if I'm not mistaken. Verification requires your SS number and yes, it's very uncomfortable to give it to them, but many sellers opted in. some unverified sellers posted here that their funds were released quite fast as well.
i opted out of being verified and they still only held funds for a max of 5 days in each of my sales - it just shows 'inspection hold' - and stays that way until it magically disappears. i'm selling items in the 1-3K range and haven't experienced a longer wait. i'm glad i didn't give up my SS# and bank info. b/c it seems it made no difference, for now anyway...
Hey is this new? LOLGreaaaaat.. Now I know why she was so eager..
After dozens of purchases & thousands upon thousands of dollars- this is my FIRST return & INAD on Tradesy.
I'm kicking myself as I knew better when I saw only stock photos in the listing BUT it was "like new no visible signs of wear" so I figured, it'll be fine.
DOPE!
It's NOT fine.. It's got damage, huge stains, missing a zipper pull on the sleeve and more.
I feel rotten- I hate to return things and especially hate to file a claim but DANG IT!
If it was just the dirt & stains, I might try having it cleaned BUT it's missing HW and damaged..
I hope she doesn't start harassing me.. I feel bad enough.. I wanted that jacket!
sorry to hear about that. and she had guts to bug you like that!

I'm sure Tradesy will side with you.
Thank you..
I will be very surprised if they don't.. I opened the request 30 mins after delivery and already have it on the way back.
I still feel rather cruddy about it- I hate to have to open a claim like that..
I much prefer a happy ending for both my buyer & sellers.
I'm sorry. What a pain. I've only returned one thing to Tradesy. My seller wasn't as bad as yours, but she described the stains as water stains when they were actually something else that stained the bag blue and changed its texture. Tradesy sided with me and gave me back my money. You should have no trouble getting a refund.

they keep my money for a while now also. I receive it only in 4 - 5 days after withdrawal. But I don't mind, not a big deal if there's something to withdraw all the time lol
so true. and I also noticed, that they write about my returned items with original boxes, that box may be from the other style, so it might mean that they store shoes are in plastic containers and boxes at some other place lol
I had 4 sales this weekend, yeeeey! finally some movement.
And a bit more about eBay vs Tradesy. One woman bought a pair of Louboutins from me TWO MONTHS AGO on eBay. Now she's writing that she would like to return them as she feels like they are not authentic, while in fact they are, as I just know it for sure. No serious reasons, no proofs, she just feels like it and thinks that it's not real leather at the bottoms etc. She wants some certificates or cards, and CL doesn't have it. And as far as I understand she belongs to that king of people who don't believe that it's possible to authenticate stuff by pictures online and believes in receipts lol (I gave her lots of links and info about authentication). She's too late for opening eBay case (at least I hope so), but still can do it with PP, and she insists she needs to return them. I know they are authentic, but I don't want to have worn shoes in return. How many chances do I have with PP disputes? Not sure Hate all this.
At least Tradesy takes care about such situations and I am so thankful for this. I know they are not always right with their authentication, by so far I was lucky enough and all their conclusions were fair.

I know what you mean, but it's her wrong, she needs to deal with it.Thank you..

Congrats on sales! I had one and I feel very uneasy after last return and how Tradesy handled it, or rather mishandled it.I had 4 sales this weekend, yeeeey! finally some movement.

As for lady, I would send her to Authenticate4U at her expense, it's only $7.5 and they should do it pretty fast for major brand. she would have to do it anyway after she opens a dispute but price will be $35 for an item questioned in dispute. because the item is 100% auth she'll lose money if she does it after opening a dispute. I guess it's a good reasoning.
Thanks! I did give her all the info what and how to do. but she said like - how can I do it if the shoes don't have any authenticity codes or certificates? lol
I am working on it, but if she still opens a claim, I'll fight till the end
I think PayPal will require her to prove they are not authentic with documents from an authentication service.
hope so. I'll do the same. But I've heard so many stories when buyers win no matter what.
