I had a Chanel wallet saved in my favorites and when I went to buy it it was sold. A few days later I did a search and the same wallet came up for sale again, same photos a different seller. I asked her if those were her photos because they were on another listing a few weeks ago she said they were her photos. Then I asked her if she had bought the wallet and was reselling it she said yes because she bought another wallet and didn`t need 2.
My number one concern is that she lied about those being her photos. Those were the original seller`s photos. My next concern is that she is selling the wallet for much less than the original seller`s price so with Tradesy fees she is going to take a loss of a couple hundred dollars for a wallet she has had about 2 weeks.

I`m thinking she just stole the photos from the other listing and didn`t want to admit it.

maybe she really bought this wallet and reselling it, I don't think it's ok to use someone's pictures, but it's not forbidden on Tradesy in case if you resell exactly same item. she could put lower price to sell it faster. anyway if there's a different wallet, you can return it to Tradesy

Most likely. I would check out the rest of her closet. There are 4 plausible options: 1) She bought the wallet, "reused" the photos through the relisting option on Tradesy and just wants to sell it, knows she won't make 100% of her money back and doesn't care (in this case if you click on your old "favorite" it will take you to her listing if she did the "relist item" option). 2) as #1 but she used screenshots of the photos...less OK because both are stealing but 1 seems to be sanctioned by Tradesy's T&C (from my understanding of it anyway) 3) stole the photos and is selling another similar wallet in who knows what condition 4) she does not even have the wallet

Every time someone asks me specific questions, I expect something bad. Like if someone asks is there any smell or do zippers work well, I am not surprised if that will be the fake reason for return. it may not work with Tradesy as they receive the item and compare it to my post in person, but it works well on eBay. recently one lady bought a bag from me. she had a bunch of questions about it's color, like is it warm or cold, is it pinkish or yellowish etc. she said she's a designer and it's very important to her. my pictures were close to life and I told her to refer to pictures, the color is warm beige. when she received it, she opened a case and her reason was that the color is different. she sent me several pics of the bag that did look more pink than at my pics. needless to say that her pics were very far from reality and she used filters. I compared it again when received the bag back and made sure that my pictures are honest. and she said like "I will not leave you negative feedback as I know how hard it is to show the color. like she did me a favor.

That's so true. I'm going through this now except on Tradesy. I had a very very used up Lv Eva crossbody for $305. So you can imagine how worn it was for that price. Suntanned Monogram, tarnished hardware, etc. the listing actually said "very heavy wear throughout". Woman who bought it asked me what color is the hardware I told her Gold but tarnished. Then she asked a bunch of questions back and forth for half a day. After she received the bag she sends me a PARAGRAPH saying the hardware isn't shiny gold, bag is old blah blah and then says "anyway, it also reeks of cigarettes and I'm not really sure it's authentic".
As used as the bag was, it never came it direct contact with cigarettes and it had no smell. Of course it's authentic too, but I feel like she knew she had a weak case until she threw the odor into the mix. Let's see what Tradesy will do, she already opened a case.

When someone openes a SNAD case but Tradesy rules in your favor, do they still keep track of those? Like are those counted against you as a seller? Tradesy so far kept all of my returns but I feel like lately I've had a lot -_-
I also don't see any rules as to how many snads are allowed, are there such stats on their site or is it just something they tell you when u call?

Write to the original seller and ask whether this is her buyer who is reselling it. If not, the new seller doesn't have the right to use the pictures but it's the owner of the pictures (original seller) who would have to report it.

for option 3) she has the same wallet in different condition and uses other seller's photos.
a) condition is better and she's OK to sell it for less. b) condition is worse that's why she sells it cheaper.

The other items in her closet are a Kate Spade handbag, a seriously questionable Coach handbag and 3 other items from designers I`ve never heard of. If the Coach is authentic it has to be from the 80`s
