well there are lots of horrible reviews about Tradesy too. I don't think it's that bad, people don't share good experiences, you're right.
Did you try selling with them? I agree in theory about the reviews but it made me hesitate about sending in expensive items. I would give it a try if anyone had a good experience they can share.
they never sold luxe before and I only sell luxe, so no I didn't have a chance. but now when they are getting into luxury segment, I maybe want to try
we all remember good times with Tradesy when they just launched, I had like 5 or 6 times more sales there in comparison with today. who knows maybe threadup luxe will be a new nice place with sales and promo codes as they will have to grow and set on the market
I am always in search for some new opportunities
Yes, and now it seems I'm on the 21-day wait plan, then another 7 days to get the deposit making it about a month from delivery until actually getting the funds.
I think you're right and I get the underhanded logic behind this, but because they are holding my funds, it has made me less inclined to spend any of my money on Tradesy. They are already getting a cut from my sales and I'm already forced to take out 3% for paypal since they don't cut checks. Why should I give Tradesy any more of my money when they deliberately hold it hostage for no reason? Especially when not too long ago, it only took about a day for my earnings to hit my Paypal account.
I still like Tradesy, don't get me wrong, but this ambiguous language of "21 days" and "3 to 7 days transfer" puts a really bad taste in my mouth.
EDIT to add: I don't shop on Tradesy and I'm currently waiting on my earnings to hit my Paypal as we speak.
Poshmark does free bank transfers, no need to wait for a check. I'm sure Tradesy's deposit system is the same except they're just greedy. I used to think Poshmark was greedy with their 20% commission fees, Tradesy is just as greedy now.
Apparently it means the buyer requested a return (at least that is what I was told when I had that same notation and asked Tradesy). Possibly the buyer claimed not as described? (They won't tell you that BTW)
It always says "inspection hold". It's for the buyer to "inspect". Unless below it states "pending customer review" instead of the funds release date, you probably don't have a return.
