Yep that's what it was. After chatting here, I asked them to send me a list and they did - apparently I had the 2 cancellations and the others were returned to Tradesy that I never even knew about. I do remember selling them but had forgotten so that's why I didn't even notice they were missing from my closet sales. I still think Tradesy is wrong though - if you sell it - it belongs showing as sold in your closet. That's the public view and that's your record of sales. It shouldn't matter AT ALL if Tradesy took it back as a return UNLESS they send it back to you & deduct your earrings. Then I could see it not counting. But not if it just winds up in Tradesy's own closet. Its just confusing and inaccurate but at least the mystery is solved and there was nothing underhanded going on. Pheww!
Anyone Ever Buy and/or Sell on Tradesy?

Ok well I guess this is the problem - there was nothing to click on because they just disappeared. They did not show up in my closet page as having been sold. They just vanished. So that's why when you look at my closet and look at sales - the number was so much lower then when I clicked on my sales tab and saw a sales number there. I don't know why yours is different but that's the reason Tradesy gave me and then they gave me a list of items I sold that they took back. They just for some strange reason, removed them from my sales in my closet - which they should NOT be doing UNLESS they were returned to me and the money taken back. I mean, I am very happy THAT didn't happen but I had completely forgotten about selling those items which is why I was so confused.
I agree, it's not right. we as sellers did everything on our side, after shipping it doesn't belong to us anymore if it's returned or even lost in mail (if we use Tradesy labels). we sold the item, package appeared in tracking, done.
I'm also unhappy too see the buyer reused my listing completely, including description and pictures. If she didn't use the item why didn't she return it in 4-day period? after wearing the bag how can she claim it's in the same condition and reuse the photos?

On the other hand - I'm not even sure I like the idea of the public being able to see all our sales in the first place, I mean, I'm of the school that if you are going to do it - do it right but best not to do it at all. Let's say a small business gets audited. Makes it very easy to go online and be like - AH HA. Got ya. And where's the sales tax for THAT one? Know what I mean? LOL.
Maybe the condition is the same. I keep my stuff in really good condition. I sell some items literally 2 decades old and they look new-ish. But I still think no matter what - don't be so lazy that you can't take your photo. Do your own listing. I guess its a compliment you did such a nice job they want to copy it BUT still ...
Speaking of sales tax, I don't think there is even a way to collect sales tax on a Tradesy sale unless Tradesy is doing it, which I don't think they are doing. I know I've sold things to buyers in my state.
I agree, sales tax is not sellers' problem if the platform doesn't collect/allow to collect it. On Etsy or eBay I click "collect tax" for my state and so it does, then I pay it to my state. other state taxes are collected and paid by Etsy.
Well it is really the buyer that is supposed to pay anyway so collecting is just facilitation but I guess it might depend on the individual state although I'm pretty sure all tax forms have a place where the buyer or taxpayer is supposed to put the amount of sales tax they owe based on their online purchases. Its reportable by the buyer so I don't think the seller or the platform is obligated to collect it unless maybe there is a particular state law putting the burden on seller instead of buyer. A lot of states the sales taxes you pay are tax deductible in the end anyway though, or at least a certain portion of them. I didn't mean to start a whole conversation here - LOL - just really using that as an example to enforce the privacy - lack of privacy - thing.
Then if someone requests to trade, I hit the "report" flag on the comment and report it as spam 6 times in a row, then refresh the page, and the comment disappears. This has worked so far.
more than that, it works even if you report it as spam or harrassment or offensive comment just once, it will disappear
something weird is going on, when I click on my closet, I see my very very old listings in my sold and removed sections. and they keep changing constantly. now I see the boots I have sold today, and then go 2 bags that I sold maybe 2 years ago

I have noticed the site and the app are glitchy this week.
But they do have another coupon promo up!
The past month has been unusually slow for me on Tradesy--I guess it's competition from the primary retail sector during the holidays.
I'm doing great on Tradesy these weeks, but just terrible on eBay - only 3 sales in December while it's usually 30 - 40 a month!!
I'm seeing the same thing!something weird is going on, when I click on my closet, I see my very very old listings in my sold and removed sections. and they keep changing constantly. now I see the boots I have sold today, and then go 2 bags that I sold maybe 2 years ago
I'm not. Nearly all my sales are on ebay this month.
Tradesy is taking a full two weeks to release my money, and another 10 to 14 days for it to hit paypal.
OMG I've just read about Designer Vault, it's so scary, she was reputable and well known. any of us can be in the same situation as these poor sellers who didn't get their money if smth happens to Tradesy, as they hold our funds forever on their account before releasing them. knocking on wood
I always get nervous when I have more than 5 outstanding unpaid sales. Now I have only one that is in the process of transferring and two that haven't been released.OMG I've just read about Designer Vault, it's so scary, she was reputable and well known. any of us can be in the same situation as these poor sellers who didn't get their money if smth happens to Tradesy, as they hold our funds forever on their account before releasing them. knocking on wood
