I have so much less stress in my reselling life now that I have fully left Tradesy.
. No more stressing over when and whether I am getting paid.

I just wanted to update that Tradesy sent me a return label to check out the item. Thanks everyone for your advice.
Mercari is dead for me. I get likers, I send them offers and no one accepts. I make a few sales a week on Tradesy.
It took 3 weeks for my last transfer to my bank and that required me to email them to get it done. Despite that, the reason I stick with Tradesy is that people buy things generally at the listed price. If they ask for a discount it's generally 10-20%. I've been listed on Poshmark since this summer and don't have a single sale because every single person puts in an offer 50-60% off my price. I don't even counter anymore but just decline. I'm wondering if I should just list things at ridiculously high amounts on Poshmark and expect to sell them at 50% off that price. I just wish Tradesy would get their act together because I much prefer their customer base.
Updating again; they are going to send me a full refund. I am pleased with their responsiveness!
So weird. I got two returns, both two pairs of brand new shoes... One was used and about 70% off retail. one pair were brand new and about $50 under retail. They kept the brand new pair and relisted in their closet but sent me back the used pair because of not being able to find the fair market price...
The longer I have to wait for funds, the more nervous I become about receiving them at all. I’m on business day 12 of waiting for my paypal transfer. I’ve had them take as little as 7 and as many as 11 before in the handful of sales I have made there; it’s getting a bit too long for my comfort. Especially when I emailed customer service, who said I would see money yesterday and I still haven’t...
I emailed on Tuesday to ask and was told on Wednesday morning “It looks like the transfer you requested on 9/25 for $x is processing properly after being expedited to the front of the queue, and the funds will be released by the end of the next business day.”
...y’all had to “expedite” me to the front after waiting two weeks?
Despite that, I’m still waiting?
It’s too bad that Tradesy is so poorly run, their customer base is great - they will buy at listed price and there’s not a lot of back-and-forth, if any at all. Poshmark sales aren’t as high-dollar but at least I know I can count on my funds being in my bank account a week after I ship the item.

I sold a high dollar item on Tradesy today and cancelled the order after talking to my sister who told me it took two months for her to get her funds from Tradesy. She stated she emailed and called them and they took their sweet time. So she will never sell on Tradesy again , either will I. Yes I agree the customers on Tradesy buy the item without trying to bargain with you on the price like Poshmark. But I get my money within a week. It’s bad business for Tradesy!The longer I have to wait for funds, the more nervous I become about receiving them at all. I’m on business day 12 of waiting for my paypal transfer.

As a buyer I have found some awesome buys on Tradesy.
At times I wish their offices would keep longer hours but I manage to get the answers I need & have found
customer service to be fair.
Hearing these various situations about receiving their "funds" is disheartening...Access to your funds in
a reasonable amount of time seems to business smart..

I have been selling High end luxury items on Tradesy for over 2 years. Within the past few months they are taking longer and longer to pay sellers. Their website says requests for transfers will take 7 business days, however, I’m still waiting for funds to be transferred to my bank account dating back to September 21 - and the item sold on September 9. It’s October 18 and they still have not processed this request on their end!! Something is happening with this company’s funds and I wonder about their future. What attracted me to the site years ago was Tradesys return policy where they kept buyer returns but that has now morphed into some “fair market” policy. I will not be selling on Tradesy any more and caution others as well. I have also filed a complaint with the BBB.

I agree 100%. When I first started selling on Tradesy they only took (I believe, correct me if I’m wrong) 13% for fees and a small percentage to transfer to PayPal. I chose to sell my designer items on tradesy rather than posh was because of the lower fee % and because the platform mainly focused on high end merchandise vs. getting lowball offers on poshmark. I remember the good ole days when I’d get my payouts within 3 days of delivery and if I had an issue id message customer service and they’d always release my funds. Stopped selling on tradesy about a year ago because it took me at least a MONTH to get my fees and customer service was basically useless. Plus, they increased their selling fees. I really don’t know what’s going, I thought by now they’d get their **** together but judging by these posts, I guess not. Been having more luck selling my high end stuff on FB marketplace, poshmark, and the heroine app (only take 8% fees!). I just wonder why it takes them so long to release funds. Very frustrating.
You should call them after 7 business days. They have to manually release it (apparently). I don't sell on there any longer but a girlfriend of mine who just started selling said she's been calling in after the 7th business day if the money has not hit her account. And every time, an agent tells her they have to manually approve the release
and the money is deposited within 48 hours after the agent approves it. It's complete BS that you have to keep tabs on them like that...I never call, and my money gets there. Sometimes it takes 10 days.You should call them after 7 business days. They have to manually release it (apparently).
