That sucks. It definitely doesn't look new. I have several used Bals and none are as wrinkled as that.
Yeah they’ll pay you next time “as long as the item doesn’t get returned”. Of course. Idiots.
Yup, the person can't even write coherent email, at the end he adds that if customer doesn't request return the funds will be yours. Right, we know that. And that he would let know shipping department for the future return shipments. Admitting their fault this way but telling at the same time that bag was designed like this.
that was I was wondering too in a post 2 pages ago. Amazon can only process payments but they don't hold your "balance" or site credits. since the article was written, PayPal has gone far. They are a financial institution, they can hold your money and they can issue debit cards, provide loans (maybe not them but associated bank). They of course have a licence.
Yea Bal bags are suppose to be slouchy after its has been used...it's called the "breaking in" process. I would seriously go to NM or Saks (where they have new Bal bags on display) and take a picture to show them what a NEW Bal bag looks like. It's unfortunate that you can't fight them on this. But not properly packaging an item for transit...hmm....seems like a trend to me.
Thank you, exactly. But even when used the bottom is not broken like this. I have my own good pictures before shipping to buyer and after receiving from Tradesy. Pictures speak for themselves. But "It was designed like this" said Tradesy. It had natural slouchiness but now it looks like it was chewed by hippo.
I liked Mercari alot too once I got used to it but then they started doing weird things with no explanation like blocking new listings unless you added a credit card for payments. I told them I wasn't buying, I was selling and they said it was a new policy but other sellers didn't get that strange restriction so I told them forget it - I'll just list on Facebook Marketplace for Christmas season. Suddenly now they are asking for a credit card OR paypal account. LOL. I still haven't listed anything new so I don't know what they think they are doing over there but it is a site that does whatever it wants despite its own policies and that worries me.
I am curious about the 20% of employees resigning and wondering if they were higher up or lower down because higher up usually means impending merger or buyout and they caught wind and are getting out while they are still marketable. Lower down could be a good thing because Tradesy apparently went on a mass hiring of young imbeciles without any knowledge of product, running a business or value of a dollar so maybe a year of losing inventory and sellers - they decided to revamp the front lines.
"Tradesy apparently went on a mass hiring of young imbeciles without any knowledge" you named it
