Well they have been very random. I had one pair of shoes that were returned, and the money (over $500) was released for transfer lightening fast, like 5 days after delivery. They must have been returned and reauthenticated right away. Then I had several sales of $100 each pieces of costume jewelry that don't appear to have been returned and the money still hasn't been released over 10 days after delivery. The amount of time to get to my bank account is still about 2 weeks though after release. That has not changed. In order to not drive myself crazy I now just wait until about the 2 week mark to check if the money hit my account and don't start freaking out unless it hasn't. It has pretty much always made it in the 2 week mark. It's ridiculously slow, but we all have our reasons why we still put up with it (more sales).
Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

that's interesting about returns. at some point Tradesy held returns in limbo, transfer time for returns was longer unless it's returned on the spot. I haven't had returns for a couple of months.
I also wonder if buyer feedback has anything to do with transfer time. if they give you high rating Tradesy may take it into consideration.

I sold what will be my last item on Tradesy on 6/25, funds available to transfer out on 7/12 to PAYPAL, still no
Money as of today.
I called Tradesy who said they hear these complaints all day long.
They also said when you sign up, you agree to their terms.
I told them I signed up years ago before these changes happened but it doesn’t matter you are subject to the rules as long as you accept.
I have files a complaint with BBB and I think you all should do the same. Go through the process and help get them reported, perhaps it will assist in deterring renewal
of their business license, eventually.
I am done with them, and deleted my account.
It was great while it lasted, but everything comes to an end eventually.
Good luck everyone!

So last week I sold two items on Tradesy. They were sold on separate days. I decided to look at the sales page today and noticed that Tradesy took a lower commission on one of the items. On the first item that I sold, the page states that 19.8% commission was taken. But on the second sale, it says 15%. They were both jewelry pieces. Any ideas why/how this happened?
I don't see any place on my sales page that shows the percentage. I only see that when I list. Anything under $50, they charge a flat rate of $7.50, so if you sold something for $49.99, the commission is only 15%.
I’m on mobile so perhaps it’s different but here’s a screen shot of what the payout breakdown is.
The item was sold for $660.50 shipping included.
I have no idea. Did you suddenly get approved for a business account? Did you list it a long time ago when the commission was still 15%?
No business account, I only have about 6-7 items in my closet and probably sell one item a month since I have ridiculously high asking prices to compensate for the 25% selling fee. I know they ran a 15% commission promo awhile back but I remember specifically not listing around that time because the promo only applied to first to sellers. It’s so weird! I’m all for the lower commission, just trying to figure out how that happened so I can adjust my other listings to get the 15% vs the 19.8% [emoji23]
I think it's app glitch, Tradesy app is always glitchy. Check out the amount when it gets to the transfer. if it's still 15% I wouldn't complain

I got payout yesterday and it was just 15% (doing my happy dance). Now, how do I make that happen again? [emoji23]
With Tradesy, you always get a good and a bad. While my second sale yielded more net, my first sale (delivered two days before the second) has yet to be released. Onto day 10 now...[emoji849]
That’s good to know. I guess I’ve been blessed, all of my sales thus far have been available by the 5th day. This one taking longer was making me worried that it might have been a return.
You've been very lucky. I think I got returns released quicker than non-returns. I haven't had any been only 5 days for a really long time. A lot of mine are under $50 too, so they can't return anyway. There is no way they need to take that long.
I’m so out of touch with Tradesy. This is my first/second sale in 2-3 months. I would have sworn the last time I read on here people were saying it used to be released on the 4th day and now it’s typically at midnight on the 5th. I guess that is no longer the case?
