It’s difficult to prove intent with Tradesy. Neiman places an order for exotic items from designers with the intention of selling. Tradesy might beg to differ cuz their business model is different, by circumstance they end up with a exotic item return and they have to resort to selling to recoup their money as part of their customer service. Legislators should define who’s what and remove any guesswork. Again ask 10 lawyers and you get 10 varying answers.

Now I'm quite confident that buyer who returns everything is switching/using bags. She's also reseller, with over 150 sales including the same brands and models that she bought from me. Each time returned items appeared in Abbey R closet with more damage. The last bag was relisted with damaged shoulder strap (not available for sale yet). How? It was brand new in a box in wrappers. I reported her to Tradesy, but I'm ready to receive email "your item is being returned to you" any time.
In preparation for your defense, document your suspicions with side by side pictures of before and after, showing precisely the areas where there was no wear and now there is.
If you suspect and can prove switches, perhaps side by side pictures showing variations in pattern placement can be demonstrated.
Does this switching person also sell on ebay?
I haven't sold on Tradesy in forever, but I recently listed 1 item only ($750) on Thursday and it sold within a day. So, the buyer messages me within a few hours asking to cancel. I just said no and that they should call Tradesy to help them out. I know full-well I can cancel it for them, but it just makes me so upset to deal with people who have instant buyer's remorse, and then to get a potential fault on my record for cancelling sales. I've done that before for buyers (cancelled) and I'm not sure how many Tradesy actually allows. Soooo annoying.
Thank you. I always take pictures with label before shipping but couldn't think of the strap or any other removable items (charms, mirror etc). I don't have such pictures.
Now lesson learnt, I'll attach second security tag with number to connect strap if it's not already connected.
As for eBay it's hard to tell, her shop doesn't have active listings, only sold items. But it's good to check if the same bag appears on ebay and check seller's feedback, sometimes you can see sold items from there.
I was thinking about it too.. Recently I had a "python" case on eBay - someone from Italy bought my python boots through eBay Global Shipping program. I did ship it as they allowed to, and then a week later had email from Pitney Bowes that they refunded my buyer as they can't ship the boots to Italy. they kept me my earnings though too. I wonder what they are doing with all this stuff they can't ship? Sell it themselves? and why would they allow to buy it at all? VC doesn't
not cool.. I've just sold expensive python shoes. hope they will not be returned. I've sold a lot of snakeskin shoes on Tradesy during these years, I don't remember if some of them were returned, but they never returned them to me.. guess I was lucky all this time..
and I did sell python shoes there too, at least 2 pairs, and a couple more are still on site. weird..
it's still not allowed to sell mens shoes and clothing on Tradesy, right? There are no such categories available when I'm making a new listing. but if I search by "mens clothing" or "mens shoes", I see THOUSANDS of listings and a lot of them are sold. I am confused
I don't think it is allowed. Apparently their software isn't catching it. I wonder what happens when one is returned? I have a men's wallet for sale but I figure it could be used by a woman, and I don't have it identified as a men's.
they just return it to seller I think. with warnings
I've heard they were planning to launch this whole new section, it was in one of their spam inspirational letters I guess.
Snakeskin is ok, python specifically is not.
I bet if i hadn't asked in advance and sent in the bag the people processing it wouldn't have known the rule and would have just put it on the site. I just didn't want to take chances sending it in so I specifically asked about it in advance.
