I am relieved that Tradesy sided with me after the buyer returned my Chanel. It took 19 of the 21 days to have my funds released. I still had to call to ask for my money even after they had relisted the bag. Now I'm just waiting waiting waiting for my bank transfer. 5 days so far. I'm definitely one and done with this company.
Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

from the other side Vestiare collective transfers money only twice a month and to get it you need to ship the item, wait till they receive and accept it, than wait till they inspect it and plan withdrawal, each stage may take up to week (based on my personal experience). sometimes I get the money like more than in a month after sale. so Tradesy is not the slowest
I had 4 sales during last CL sale, around 10 days ago.
3 out of 4 were returned to Tradesy, isn't it insane? So far I didn't get any money for these 3 but I see that the items are in Abbey R closet and removed, that's how I knew they were returned, and it seems to be a good sign as they are not returning them to me. I think ppl overuse these returns A LOT, especially the ones who have site credits. They can repurchase and return items forever cause they don't lose anything.

In separate transactions, a buyer bought 3 scarves from me, and returned all of the them. This happened over several months. I called Tradesy because I worried. Who returns scarves? It isn't like they aren't going to fit. I was told that this buyer bought tons of items and returned tons too, so they weren't worried, but it makes me wonder if it was because of buyers like this that they started making items under $50 final sale.
I wish there was a way to block people on Tradesy. I've had the same lowballer come back twice now. "I can offer $xx." And I can tell you no but oh, how I wish I could block you.
I get those with one word and a question mark, "$xx?" When it eventually sells to someone else for my asking price, I want to point it out to them.
Like this ---> $500?
Sometimes I even get this ---> 500
That's it no dollars signs,no question mark, just the numbers.
It's beyond unnerving to me, imo it's so rude and tasteless. It takes seconds to right a sentence!
I now respond with something along these lines. "Are you making me an offer or just sending me random numbers? [emoji38]
Another way for them to keep my money longer is to give me more sales! If I make a sale and then make another a few days later, I'll wait until the money from both clears before withdrawing. Right now, I have money that has been released, some due to be released tomorrow, some more to be released in 4 days, and another sale that hasn't been delivered yet. I might wait until they all clear before withdrawing.
Thank you!
The buyer returned the bag in 2 days to one of their shop locations in Dallas. It took another week to show up at their CA location. Then it showed up 3 days later relisted over the weekend. By the time I called on Monday it was about 12 days after Tradesy had it in their possession for my funds to be released.
I'm really more annoyed at the buyer. You don't buy a Chanel just to see if you like it. And then lose the authenticity card. Tradesy is the one who got screwed in this deal. No way they'll make the money back without the card.

I think I may have made some sales due to the coupon, but they were still in my closet last night after midnight PST. They were both to the same buyer but because I used Tradesy labels, they have separate labels and packages.
I'm wondering if Tradesy keeps tracks of your returns and puts your listings higher in the search if you don't have as many. I haven't had a return since May.

OK I have a general Tradesy question for anyone that has knowledge. I have used Tradesy to sell bags and have had success with it. The funds generally appear within 5 days of buyer receiving and when I transfer funds to my PayPal acct, it hits my PayPal acct with hours. HOWEVER, last week Tradesy paid out my earnings and I transferred to PayPal and I am now on day #4 that it has not hit my PayPal account. I emailed Tradesy and explained that this is an anomaly, that the funds usually enter PayPal acct within hours of transferring and they gave me the party line,"it could take 5-7 business days to deposit in your paypal account." Has thing situation changed for anyone else? Have you found that what used to be almost an immediate transfer to PayPal is now taking several days?
yes, that's how it happens now
they hold money for several days before transferring
