Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

My deposit took 12 days from Oct 6 to 18. Given that I shipped it on September 27, it takes 22 days to get my money on Tradesy. vs Posh where it's usually 6 days (2-3 days for delivery, 2-3 days for acceptance, 1 day for deposit).

I requested a deposit on the 8th still nothing, I’m over this!
Plus the commission increase.
I haven’t sold anything on Tradesy in three weeks now.

I’m getting ready to just sell everything off the Yoogi’s etc.

If I had that option, I would do that, too. Much less stressful. Unfortunately, I'm a Marc Jacobs girl and no place pays more than pennies for MJ these days.

The transfer was finally in my account this morning, at least. For a bag sold on the 28th and delivered on the 2nd. Yikes.
 
I sold a $400 bag and a $900 bag within a day of each other. The $400 was transferred to PayPal 4 days before the $900 was. I don't know why but I found it troubling.

Also, does anyone have any opinion of the Tradesy commission boost? From 15.9% to 20.9%! Not including the 2.9% transfer fee. That's almost a 25% commission to sell your bag on Tradesy! And then having to wait weeks to get money transferred to PayPal is seriously unbelievable!

Has anyone sold a bag with the new commission? I sold two items over a week ago but they were under $50, so not subject to the higher commission. It seems really slow now. Maybe they aren't getting the results they thought they would. If most people either raised their prices or removed their items in response to the higher commission, they could end up with even fewer sales and less money than before.

I did sell 6 items since then, things are going pretty good for me honestly. and I raised prices for most of my items the day before they raised their fee

I removed all of my items because I was starting to get concerned that if they go out of business suddenly I might never get paid. On top of the stress of the new returns process it just was not worth it. I had steady sales on Tradesy, but it did decreased over time. I would like to buy something on Tradesy if they have a good coupon soon, I have purchased from the seller before so I am not worried about needing to deal with a potential return.

And the "this is what the raise in your fees is funding". An IPhone app that takes measurements? I don't have an iPhone..........I have android and use a tape measure from the .99 Store. Boot their sales the extra and leave me alone.

Yep. I don't even need to measure my designer bags, I go to department store website and get measurements there. thank you Tradesy, this is really "innovative" and will help boost your sales, not fixing your creepy search and promoting all the items fairly in your emails.

This!!!! I laughed at this too

Tradesy has become so unfriendly for small time sellers and I really don’t know why this is an improvement when you can simply google the measurements

They can’t even fix the pic cropping problems from iOS app or poor search results on their app/site
 
I'm frustrated because a buyer just made an offer on an item that I couldn't accept because the fees eat up too much. However, the price she offered is what I have it listed on ebay for. I wish I could tell her to do an image search.

I made screenshots of all my previous sales, removed my Paypal account, and put my account on indefinite vacation. :sad:
