After I confirm a sale, I'm not getting the confirmation emails until several days later. I bet the buyers aren't either.

me too! For the last several weeks. Sometimes I get them after the item is delivered lol
and I also wanted to note that their money withdrawal process became MUCH faster now. Now I have my money available at my banking acc in 1 - 2 days after withdrawal.

That is good news. Was the compensation fair for the amount of damage? How were you able to get them to reimburse you?
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well!

nowadays they will only listen if it's via BBB. compensation is $150 for three scratches ($50 for each, sorta fair) for $1K bag (though market price is $1300-ish).
I just re-authenticated it with Carol diva, of course it was deemed authentic. now I really want to send the bag back to them, get paid in full (minus compensation) and let them deal with it. Purely their mistake or more like refusal to keep any returns nowadays.

I think they try to authenticate by your photos now before you ship. I guess it's to prevent so many returns. Maybe they are a little behind.

On one of my last sales, it took almost 24 hours from the time the item disappeared from my closet until it appeared in my sales. It was a non-premium brand that isn't often counterfeited. The same day, I sold a vintage Dior item, and I got the email asking me to confirm the sale before I noticed it was missing from my closet. There wouldn't have been time for them to authenticate the Dior before I shipped. I confirmed both sales on Wednesday, shipped the same day, and received the confirmation emails today. One of the items was delivered today. I think the buyer got the item before she got the confirmation email.

I'm glad you fought it out, but I'm sorry it was such a hassle and I personally wouldn't consider that fair compensation unless you can still sell the damaged bag for just $150 less than when it was perfect. Of course your time is "worth" nothing, that is as expected unfortunately.

if Tradesy was convinced that the item is a replica, they wouldn't allow you to re-list it on their platform. it doesn't sound like that's the case, which only lends credence to your claim that they didn't want to put it in their closets. I'm curious how they'll respond to authentication reports from other vendors not AF. I've only used AF in the past but would like to look elsewhere since they're so grossly incompetent.

I tried to use Authenticate4U, wasted two weeks, they were too busy to deal with it. CD was very professional, I used her because of great reviews, I got response in thee days. I've never used AF, but if Tradesy wishes so I can ask them too.

3 weeks ago I sold LV Neverfull on Tradesy for $850. It was returned, but my funds were released. now I came to my sold items and I see that they resold this bag from Abbey R for $545. they are trying to get rid of returns asap even if it costs them more then $200 loss for an item:smile:

Authenticate4U is a real waste of time. They used to be great, but then something happened (I've heard the founder had some health issues), and last time I tried to authenticate something with them 6 months ago and I was waiting for a month. Sad to know that things didn't change, as honestly their team used to be the best

there's Mypoupette too. but their prices are significantly higher ($20 for 7-day authentication). I have a feeling that AF and MP check sellers rather than items, seller reputation is a key factor.

I mentioned it too, two returned bags from my closet were sold at 40-50% off. it's Tradesy fault though, both bags had significant damage since they were returned, and Tradesy's pictures were horrible, didn't even show the color correctly. I feel sad for these beauties, one was BNWT and receipt from boutique. Vandals.

yeah, I've read it, but mine was sold with my own pictures, so I suppose it doesn't have any new signs of use, and even dust bag was included (I notice they often get rid of this stuff)
but the main is that we sold them and had good deals and they didn't make us accept return:)
