Aaaand after going in frustrating circles with a customer care rep from Tradesy re: them incorrectly deeming my [beautiful, excellent condition, authentic] Proenza Schouler purse someone bought/returned as inauthentic... I will be deleting my Tradesy account.
Frankly, I just don't trust them/their "experts" with any other bags in my collection if nonsense like this can happen and go uncorrected. I'm not going to pay them to be a middleman (as a seller OR as a buyer) if they can't do that job well. At least I got my bag back ok. Maybe it's a sign I should keep it.
I know it's weird, but I feel much safer with eBay. Just have to wait for my withdrawn funds to hit, then bye bye Tradesy.
