I had my Tradesy booth on vacation mode and I just made two sales. One today and one the day before. Unfortunately,I already sold both items on PM and had not deleted them on Tradesy!!! Now the buyers are mad. I'm done with Tradesy and all the headaches. I will keep my vacation mode until they are taken over.

That's crazy! I've gotten questions on Tradesy about items when I've been on vacation, and often they are items I sold years earlier, either on Tradesy or somewhere else. I don't know how people are seeing them and why they don't know they aren't available.

Vacation absences trip me up. I very occasionally list items on eBay and sometimes I forget to close the listings when I'm away. I think it's easier for power sellers who are actively managing their storefronts on a daily/hourly basis. For casual sellers like me, the vacation schedule sometimes gets in the way.

Ebay is the only site I use where you have to end listings when you go on vacation. Most other sites have vacation holds, so you just click one button and all your listings are supposed to be unavailable for purchase.

On Tradesy, I believe, you have to put in a date for when you expect to be back, and the listings automatically become active at that time. I remember once I made a sale on Tradesy a day or two before I was back so I'm wondering if they ended my vacation hold early.

Yes, you are right. I had my vacation hold until July 11th, but it looks like Tradesy may have ended it early.

Tradesy keeps messing up with listings. After they deactivated all listings by "technical glitch" a couple of months ago, I just got another email how all listings with "more info required" will be deactivated because they need more details for authentication blah blah. In ALL my listings ALL detailed photos required for authentication are included with serials, closeups etc. When I click on any listing with more info required, it's trying to lower the price to their suggested price and that's all. I'm not doing it. Not to mention, the shop is on permanent vacation until THESE very "confused" employees are replaced. Their actions just keep hurting their business, already drew away many successful sellers.

CS that I reached out copy-pasted again about "missing markers" in those listings. I asked which ones in every listing, bec everything is there. "our team", "our team"... none of your teams is in compliance with a grown-up company.
 
I was bugging CS to point out which auth markers are missing in my 20+ listings. So they went to look at it and reduced # to 5 listings including 2 Coach and 1 Kate Spade which are obviously made in China, so they need to see "made in china" stickers (ridic, isn't it?). They kept bugging me about 2 designer items AFTER I added all the codes in macro, but they failed to look at updated pics. Finally approved after back and forth emails. HUGE waste of time.

I got similar emails regarding my listings and all have original photos with close ups etc.
But to make it worse, there is a seller that bluntly steals my photos and adds them to his/ her listings. He/she’s done that in the past twice. A couple of days ago, I noticed he/she did it again. I messaged no response. I reported all listings for copyright infringement saying that the seller is using my images. Nothing. The listings remained there with my photos. I contacted customer support, the customer representative was completely useless, told me he will contact the department that handles that. And I still haven’t heard from that. What the f….?! So it’s ok for someone to steal original images, and then sell who knows what. Most of the photos in this seller listings are stolen from other sellers, who sell the same items. But they send me stupid emails asking for more photos for listings that already have real photos?!
I can’t believe that Tradesy thinks it’s acceptable. And I can’t believe they haven’t done anything. I’ll be bugging them until they have these listings removed.

I think Tradesy thinks it is okay for sellers to use other people's photos. I think they believe that when you post photos on their site, they become their property.

Horrible! At least on Poshmark they would remove stolen pictures and sometimes the whole account if it's fraudulent with listings full of other seller's images. But they would also ask you for original uncropped pictures to prove you took it. I guess it's an industry practice. They don't want to look at dates who listed it first, or they can't.

What if you didn't crop or edit your pictures? Lately I've been using the photos exactly as they were taken.
