Ugh just got email for the inevitable commission increase come 12/1 going from 9% to 14.9% IF YOU WITHDRAW $$, so plus the 2.9% transfer fee which is staying the same total cut for seller becomes 17.8%.
That's almost as much as Shop-Hers but without the added protection for both sellers and buyers...
Basically you (the seller) had to send your item to Shop-Hers to be inspected before the company ships it out to the buyer. Once the transaction was approved by Shop-Hers, you're basically done. You never had to worry about anything coming back to you once Shop-Hers sen you that 'OK, everything is great' email. Any disputes the buyer had, the company would take care of. It isn't like Tradesy where there still could be a bait and switch situation or someone possibly damaging your item and claiming SNAD or all those newbie buyers buying authentic items and then claiming it's fake.
ETA: The last part about the claiming its fake--the issue here is mainly your money can potentially get tied up on Tradesy for weeks since Tradesy allows buyers 10 days to ship the item back and then you have to wait and see what Tradesy decides once the item comes back to them.
Wow! That is a significant increase! If they are going that high they should go back to the Shop Hers selling format.
Whattt!!! I didnt get an email. I hope this isn't true [emoji24][emoji24]
I didn't get the email yet. Does it specify that you have to withdraw your funds by 12/1 or just sell the item by 12/1?
I just got the email time stamped a little over an hour ago. Freaking ridiculous! They don't even provide good enough services at 9% let alone 14.9%! Search function sucks, the way they take time to respond to anything anymore is horrible, and how they tried to screw me over with a customer's buyer's remorse until I filed against them in Better Business Bureau (and waisted 3 days and countless hours to get my money back)- I think I will lower prices to try to sell all of my items before 12/1 because I am pulling all my items on that day.
Wow!
Looks like I'll be pulling my listings..
The little bit of protection they provide against scammers isn't worth almost 5% more fees IMHO.
If I sell a $2000. item, the cost goes from about $200 + withdrawal fees to nearly $300 + withdrawal fees That's TOO HIGH!
I'll go back to taking my chances on eBay.
I AGREE!
Maybe if we do a mass exodus they'll reconsider..
