Huh, that's interesting. I've never bought anything on tradesy, only sold. Can buyers provide feedback after sa transaction has been completed?
Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

Yes they can. After the purchased item has been delivered they send you the email to write feedback about the seller. I used to, but don't anymore. What does it do for me? We don't get to see the feedback or anything. I bet people only do it if the experience was bad.
Oh, I never knew that!
Good to know.I haven't found anything I really, really want on Tradesy. I like buying on eBay better, haha!
it's optional, tradesy will send you email to rate experience with the seller and maybe one reminder. I just ignore these emails unless I'm really happy or unhappy
Does anyone else see the site wide code banner on the main page? It was there a few minutes ago, but now it's gone for me.
I can't find that post. Salwa only has 5 posts and the link isn't one of them. Maybe it was removed
I find it hard to believe that someone who has sold over 2k bags doesn't include photos necessary for independent authentication. Relying on in house authenticators is like the fox guarding the hen house.
Is there? I didn't get the message and it doesn't show for me when I go to Tradesy. I have something I'd like to buy if there was a sale.
It was removed. I suspect it was because she'd posted her own listing.
I'll see if I can find the listing on Tradesy.
It was $50 off of $500
and $125 off of ??? 1000 or 1250? I can't remember, I think the codes were SS50 and SS125
I guess it was a glitch on their site.
I think the post was removed because it contained personal information.
Here's the listing.

I believe this is the listing: https://www.tradesy.com/bags/louis-...der-bag-monogram-cerise-20545344/?tref=closet
She has the key photos of the stamps and tags, but I know authenticators like to see close-ups of hardwares as well to be 100% sure, given all of the superfakes floating around nowadays.
I know a lot of us are not AF fans, but there are members, even on tpf, who occasionally come into this subforum raving about their positive experience with AF. Perhaps Salwa trusts their authentication procedure. There is nothing wrong with that as I am sure lot of sellers on Tradesy do to (I see it being advertised on their listings). But I feel that buyers are responsible for their own purchases as well. When I buy preloved, I always get a second opinion whether through TPF or a paid authenticator that I trust, even if I know the brand well enough to self-authenticate. How many times have we heard of buyers having that "feeling" that their items is fake or having friends tell them that item "looks off" because they know LV from buying 1 or 2 bags from the store? Or in this case, OP bringing the bag to the LV store to have it authenticated when it is a known fact that SAs don't know jack about authenticating.
It seems like you're coming down hard on the seller but are not holding the buyer accountable for her lack of actions. We still don't know if the bag is fake or authentic. Salwa has sold over 2k worth of LV items and if the listings continue to appear in her "sold" section, that means those were completed transactions with no issues. There have been longtime tpfer members who have purchased from her and posted their experience on this thread. I don't see any reason to cast doubt onto her until there's a solid case showing otherwise.
Thanks. I gave them a try just in case, but they don't work.
Not on this case. If you go back, you'll see that the OP claimed to have gone to the store the day before her posts, however she'd already sold the bag by then.
This was another misstatement by the OP.
