CHAT about Balenciaga Finds

It’s still on hold - possibly a TRR Admin hold while they investigate the listing. This has happened to me before when they lost one of my items I submitted for consignment. It was a Balenciaga jacket that they ended up having to pay me full price for because it mysteriously disappeared from their warehouse. 😑

Well, whatever the reason for the HOLD, looks like they let the sale go through
Hopefully that means they double checked its authenticity 🤞🏻

Does this look like Black Cherry? I’m debating it if there’s a price drop.

Is this listing showing up for anyone? I get a 404 error page when I click on this. So many listings on FP have gone awol, including one I just bought yesterday. When I click on the link to the bag I just bought, I get the 404 error page.

I might be getting overly paranoid, but it looks like FP is slowly deleting records of sold bags. If they manage to scrub all past sales off the internet, that would be a big loss to us, especially archivists and authenticators.

404 for me.

I’m getting the 404 error page as well and noticed this immediately after I bought this bag yesterday. THANK YOU, AUNTIE DECO!!!

My old FP purchase links still work (for now), but getting the satisfaction of even looking at the pics or reading the description of a bag I just bought went out the window.

This practice is going to be problematic for them if, for instance, the bag arrives and is not as described. For that alone, they should bring the listing pics & description back.

If any of you are buying from FP, before checking out, I’d recommend saving a screenshot of the listing (including description) and save all the pics!

This is exactly what I was thinking. How can they erase the record of the original listing? It should be available at least to the buyer. They went from enhancing the crap out of listing photos to the point the bag was unrecognizable to just deleting the listing altogether. This is a shady practice and will not hold up to challenge. They're just asking for trouble.

I had this happen once before when I reserved a bag, I called technical support and they were able to get the listing back online. Phone is fastest, I think chat support can also fix it. This is frustrating!

Thanks for letting us know! Contacting them now to see if I can bring this Marble City back up. I’ll also ask if they can give any insight why this is happening.

Clearly they need to hire one of us!

Well, after the marble city and my city went awol, I started doing a search for sold bags on FP, including by clicking on many of my own prior purchases. A lot of them have disappeared. It's not a one-off error that they're correcting. It's looking systematic to me, which is why I'm getting paranoid. While they may repost something you bought, that doesn't address all the others that are not our purchases. We can't get them to pull them up one by one.

I actually applied there a long time ago and was like rejected within two days LOL. Probably for the best, I’d be spending my whole paycheck on bags. They are my favorite reseller platform mainly for the personal shopper service. I have one I use in NY and Carlsbad depending where the listing is, they can send pictures of the bag in different types of lighting, give their opinion, etc.

I actually just went back to some of my old favorites that sold a long time ago and got this error:


I hope it’s just a tech issue and that they aren’t deleting past sales, now I want to call and see what is going on

Agree. Their site is up, just lots of sold listings not showing. Current listings are fine. If you're right and it's a technical glitch they're fixing, that would be best case scenario.

Just got off the phone with a FP Customer Service Rep and she down played the issue saying it was only a select few items which I disagreed with her on.

I let her know it’s more widespread than she thinks and they need to make management aware to fix this issue or it’s a lawsuit for them waiting to happen.

She had to submit a case for my Marble City and it will be a few days before it’s back up! 🤯 I do hope my call was recorded on this one, but if any of you are having this issue, please report and ask they fix this site wide to help us all.

It’s their loss @discreetlux!!
