No signature confirmation. It says "in transit' and the bar isn't all the way across. The detail says "available for pickup."

O my! That happened to me on Poshmark. They delivered the item to a P.O. box but never scanned it delivered. It kept saying in transit. After hours on the phone every week with the Post Office and Poshmark it took almost 3 months to get them to release my funds. I hope you don't have to go through that.

In the past for me, once the buyer has picked up the package, my funds release date gets set to 4 days after the package arrived at the PO. But it's been a while and Tradesy has made so many changes so I doubt they'd be that 'generous' any more.

OMG! I hope not! Since it is Tradesy's label, not mine, they are responsible for it if it gets lost, and they should follow up with the post office if need be, not me! In the past if a package was lost, I got my money after I filled out an affidavit. I wonder if that has changed. At least it isn't very much money.
 
This buyer bought one of my purses a week ago. I shipped THE SAME DAY and she knew I was shipping that day and said "that would be perfect". Today I realized that delivery was attempted last Friday and still no pickup. I sent her a message and she said that she has been out of town and will get it this Saturday. Why didn't she tell me that earlier? I probably wouldn't have been in such a rush to drop off her package if I knew she'd be gone for a week. Now, the purse is just sitting at a post office. I don't like that. Making me wait EVEN longer!

Does anyone else have problems with the Tradesy shipping labels not being scanned when delivered. It is happening with about 1 out of every 5 things I ship lately. They won't release my payment until I contact the buyer and ask if it was delivered. This is getting really annoying. This all began when I started using their shipping labels instead of my own.
 
I sold a handbag early yesterday morning and Tradesy still has not sent me a confirmation email. The buyer even messaged me to ask if everything is OK.
If Tradesy wants us to ship in a timely manner why are they doing this?

This has never happened to me.

I think the only way is to make a new listing for $0 or whatever price Tradesy allows and send her the link. You can't exchange email addresses and attach pics via conversations on Tradesy, it will be blocked. But including link to another Tradesy listing is OK. I remember Tradesy advised something like this.

Thank you for this. CS finally got back to me and suggested the same thing. Crazy that this is the only way to do something so simple.
 
So now my buyer wants to return. I guess with no invoice for a lower price they don't want to pay customs. Anyway I'm wondering how Tradesy handles this? The return should go to them but I have not received my funds so does Tradesy send it back to me or what?

I believe for international sales, all sales are final (it's in the terms and conditions before you check out). The package is already at the forwarding facility. It's going to the buyer's country regardless of what she wants. You are no longer obligated to communicate with her. If she denies the package once it reaches her because she doesn't want to pay custom fees, she could be out of the item and her money.
