Paypal returns are just as bad. I had an ebay buyer initiate a NAD claim with Paypal. She didn't use ebay, (I believe) because she had already disputed AD NAUSEUM on ebay. She tries a NAD claim with Paypal, they side with her, and she sends me the item back *with the tags cut off*. It was a NWT item.
Later I found that tool (here on TPF) that can be used to review buyer reviews. She was a serial bad feedback giver.

Nothing I could do- I lost the case for no reason at all. I did send a nastygram to Paypal mgmt to complain, not that it did anything.

I've had a handful of returns with Tradesy with no issues whatsoever, except one, which was a mistake on my part (I sent the wrong item)- and they worked with me on that. Of course with Tradesy I am still waiting on my money which is not an issue with ebay/paypal.

It took 14 days (again) for my funds to show up in my bank account. Tradesy needs to update their website to reflect the actual # days for funds to be received. It seems shady for them to keep sticking to their old numbers when they KNOW they aren't accurate.

My buyer contacted me to tell me how much she loves the purse she received today. USPS tracking still shows it is out for delivery.

there was all kinds of mess in USPS because of the holiday. some of my packages were delayed, others were not scanned until they reached distribution center. now estimated delivery is missing in tracking.

So my sales with Tradesy have really picked up. I sold 2 items yesterday on Tradesy, one on Poshmark, none on ebay. I don't sell good stuff on poshmark, only junk that I don't bother to list on Tradesy. Seems like a much younger crowd on PM.

So for me, Tradesy still remains my best selling platform. I don't like the 21 delay for payouts but not a deal breaker for me at this point. I think the small time internet resellers (like me) are being pushed out of the business to a degree anyway.

For Thredup, I sent them a bag last summer (not luxe) and overall received about $55 which was GREAT for what I sent them. About half of my consignment items sold, 2 did not, and I received this email below. This is why people don't like Thredup, because they know *own* my consignment goods and can resell them- people feel like there is something shady about this practice, but they do allow you to reclaim (for a fee), lots of people don't bother with that.

Unfortunately, your consignment item did not sell and is no longer listed on our site. If you'd like to reclaim your item, please do so within 13 days. After this time, it will become property of thredUP and will be responsibly recycled or sold at a later date.

How do you like this? I've sold boots, great condition, size 38.5
Tradesy returned them with explanation:
During our inspection, we found the item to be misrepresented for the following reasons:
* Item is listed to be a 38 1/2 but is marked a 38

My shoes were size 38.5, it's obvious from the listing pictures, and I answered them with multiple pictures of mine ones. 3 or 4 days after they answered me to make pictures of what I'll receive as they already shipped them back.
I received them today. Other shoes in MUCH worse condition and marked 38!! Those buyer switched them.
Here are mine

and that's what I got in return, all dirty boots in terrible condition, not my size

I am so glad it didn't happen on eBay, they wouldn't even listen to me
Hope Tradesy will take my side, cause it's obvious fraud

I just wonder why didn't they pay any attention that the boots look different, and it's not only about size. Same style but mine look great and these ones were worn for like several years. Why didn't they compare them to my pictures first? So not cool:(

It's horrible what buyer did, but even worse that Tradesy didn't hear your side of the story.
Fight back, you have a great chance.
