Hold on, are you saying they took it from sale price? like you accepted offer for $350, instead of charging tax on $350 they substructed 8% (or whatever tax in CA) from $350?

No. They charged it to the buyer on top of the sales price. It has no effect on your earnings.
Under your sold item it should say something like:
Sold price $100
Your earnings: $80
Sales tax collected on your behalf for state of buyer: $9. (That’s 9% on $100 charged to the buyer)
Sold price $100
Your earnings: $80
Sales tax collected on your behalf for state of buyer: $9. (That’s 9% on $100 charged to the buyer)
In this example the buyer paid a total of $109 plus the posh shipping fee.
Phew, good to know. That's how it should be, but many intermediary platforms stick to semi-legal practices nowadays that you never know what's next.. Like Tradesy or Etsy which reschedules you scheduled payment for a week and calls it a a "bug". I like PM more and more.
I'm a seller on Tradesy (although I sell very few expensive bags).
How does a seller respond to an inquiry asking for more photos? Ebay has an option to add a photo in their secure email, but afaik Tradesy does not, and Tradesy will block any message between buyer and seller where an email is indicated - because they think you are trying to buy off the site.
I never found a way to move listings from eBay to Tradesy, but as far as parking listings, I suggest you download Turbo Lister for ebay. They discontinued Turbo Lister but not really - I still use it and recently downloaded a new copy from the softpedia site. Every few most, ebay sends an inquiry about what I use on TL, so they know people still use it.
Sold an item 2 weeks ago, on Past Friday the funds were relist. Since i sell items from discounted high end brand store, i always mention in every description on top of representing defects if present , the words "store display model, store handling signs present "
Today received an email from Tradesy regarding the item to be returned to me with the following explanation :
Your item was described in its listing as “Like New”, but has signs of wear-and-tear. Tradesy requires that all listings accurately and comprehensively describe any damage or wear-and-tear.
Writing present on the backside of the fiber content tag is not clearly described in the listing or the photos.
You are allowed to re-list this item on Tradesy, provided that you correct the listing issues cited above.
Please note the second paragraph which made me cry
the store where i buy hign end items always marks with a pen on the inside of each item the inventory number, and since this wasnt mentioned in the descriptiondescription, Tradesy found a new loophole how not to keep returned items and send them back to us. ..
Pulling my listings off, will use Mercari for now.
When you sell items whuch are more than 85% off the retail, still bugers have expectations to get an item without any flow as from purchasing straight from a designer.

Try removing the the pen with an eye-dropper and 80% alcohol. Sometimes it works.Sold an item 2 weeks ago, on Past Friday the funds were relist.

For this new policy, does Tradesy specify if their "above market price" calculation includes their ~30% fees? Most of the reason items are overpriced on Tradesy is due to the cost of selling there (I believe).
No that is not taken into account. Buyers can price as they wish to attempt to recoup fees (or not) and Tradesy only looks at whether they think they can resell the item in 30 days at that price.
Its a small white color tag, satin kind of fabric, which is inside of every garment(content of fabric, made in Italy, etc. ) Every garment has it inside . If i remove the ink, it will ruin the entire tag, plus its on thw back side of that tag. This us i call"let me find anything just to return the item: a speck of dust, which you were not mentioned in the description. ." thats the Policy of Tradesy
They are going doooown the hill . For more than a month they have been trying to invent a new type of sale:"shoelace sale", "dust bag sale" lol but buyers are not rushing to buy anything even with lucrative addit 10% off... I give them max 2 years and they are a bankrupt..Around 5y. ago sold a pair of Valentino shoes on Tradesy. They shoes were returned with a Tradesy determination as being counterfeit. I submitted them sale receipt where the shoes had been purchased from (the retail icon store with more than 50 years in the business). Tradesy responded that this store had a reputation of selling not authentic items(on the Interned a bloger made a post blaiming that store in selling counterfeits when she discovered her Steve Madden or simal brand purse, in her opinion was fake). Based on this claim on the Internet, Tradesy(with 1 or 2 years being at that moment in business) claimed that store(where i purchased Valentino and still purchase and people purchase for 50 years and more )sells not authentic designers goods and based on that the shoes were fake. . Thats the level of professionals working at Tradesy. . (I contacted the store after the accident ,they offered me a certificate of authenticity if i needed ), reached the Valentino customer care, they confirm ed the authenticity as well,gladly shoes were sold on Ebay short time after with zero complaincomplain .
