Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

Well, then the obvious solution would be to buy her bags in the store where she can smell them first, right? I'm sorry you had to deal with that. :/
Thank you! I completely agree with you. As a responsible customer I would never buy from a private seller if I have some sort of allergy. More importantly, I would never open a case that the item was misrepresented.

facebook groups. if you join a few and participate for a while and build trust it can be a great way to sell your stuff. and most people will pay via friends/family so you avoid fees. i sold my first facebook bag (an lv) two weeks ago and it was awesome. just you and the buyer being friendly and getting it done. kinda like a much safer craiglist i suppose. i bought one that way too (an lv) to see how it works and it was great. the seller had sold many bags and various people commented about her being reliable and etc. i only collect and sell designer bags so not sure if groups exist for clothes, shoes and etc.?

What kind of Facebook groups? Name?
 
Just had one of my items sell, but I haven't received a notification to confirm, nor am I able to confirm it through my sales, since it isn't showing up outside of my closet's main page. Has this happened to anyone? Could it be some sort of mandatory waiting period?

Never mind, I actually read the Help page on this [emoji3]

Our Trust Team is processing the order to check on all the of the purchase details, including the buyer's address and payment information. We do this as part of our risk and security systems to protect both our buyers and sellers.

In some cases, our payment and order detail verification processes may extend order processing times, potentially up to 96 hours.

The sale will not appear on your Sales page until we release the sale to you to confirm. While we are processing the order, do not ship, even if the buyer contacts you directly.

If we need any additional information our team will send you an email with any questions.

When you receive an email to confirm your sale, the order has been reviewed and will appear on your Sales page. You can feel safe shipping your item knowing you are protected.

Yep, just wait awhile. If it's a new buyer, you can expect to wait up to 24 hours. Buyers who already have a history of buying on Tradesy, your sold confirmation alert should come in a couple of hours.
 
I have been using Vestiare and have sold more on that site than any other. They take a 30% commission, but sales are final and they check your items at their headquarters prior to sending them to the buyer so you don't have to worry about fraud. I've been liking it a lot. There are shipping restrictions - basically no jewelry or exotics can be shipped internationally per their site protocol - and they only take certain brands. Otherwise, it is kind of a headache to list items and to get their "approval" for your listing price, but after an item is actually listed then it is pretty good! The buyer pays shipping, not the seller.

that's so weird, I made 6 sales on Vestiare during all the time (since Jun 2016 or so), while I make 20 - 30 each month on eBay, but so many people say they do better on VC. I have less items for sale there, but still one sale in 2 months is a joke. My prices there are not too high and I sell the most popular high-end brands.

I don't sell on eBay, so I can only compare Tradesy to Vestiare. I'm sure Vestiare gets less traffic than eBay.
