Unless packages are heavy and going across the country, the FRB prices are higher than non-flat rate. While I can't recall reading stories here (on TPF), there are cases that have been posted on the ebay boards where buyers get hit with postage due costs because sellers used FRB but paid the non-FRB price.

Right thats what I am saying, I use the flat rate large box and stick the tradesy label on it, which means it is not technically flat rate postage. A few times I actually took boxes this way to the post office at the counter and nobody said anything, I had no idea I was doing anything wrong.

I'll bet you anything that the post office actually prefers you use their boxes vs various odd size ones, they probably have a loosey goosey rule about it. I'm not suggesting anybody else do this, though.

I've never had anyone on Tradesy message me asking for an unreasonable price reduction...but someone just asked for an additional 80% off a nwt bag...I don't even feel like responding.

I have it all the time. most of my items are NWT premier designers. I receive "190?" "will u take 500?" for $1-2K items.
On Poshmark I counter once, if they decline or keep lowballing I block them. I wish you could do the same on Tradesy.

I just had one of those on ebay. (I do have a b.o. option but I don't accept 80% off.) I haven't responded yet because I'm trying to decide whether to block, counter or just decline!

I sold an item on Tradesy on 5/25. Item delivered on 5/31. Funds released/request made to transfer funds to my bank account on 6/14. Today is 6/26 I still don't see my money in my account. A whole month after the sale they're still holding my money hostage--$3880 after all the commissions and fees.

Not good. But, they do say it can take 7 or more business days after transfer is initiated. Today would be the 9th. business day. You should call them.

It's "new normal". I'm on 12th day waiting for funds release (used to be 9 days) and it will take 13+ days for transfer. I bet they would add addl 4-5 days using 4th of July as an excuse. Sigh...

Now after I emailed Tradesy about payouts (I make sure I do, otherwise they may claim sellers are happy since they don't complain), I can't access my account and my items. I wonder if it's a sitewide issue or it's due to my email?
