It’s gone already. Good! I wonder why some take so much longer to get taken down than others? Maybe the most obvious ones go first? Just curious to what their system is once a listing is flagged. Poshmark sends me notifications to go through their reported listings, which I always thought was weird. eBay or Mercari certainly don’t do that.

Some sites are better than others at trying to maintain a safe buying and selling site.

I've found that Mercari is very good about removing listing when multiple reports come in on them. That's why posting on this thread is a great way to get multiple users to report.

Poshmark and Etsy rarely respond to reports by removing the listings and many sellers who've been kicked off other sites know that and go there to sell.

Ebay and Bonanza (though Bonanza is near-dead) are good at responding to reports.

Tradesy is inconsistent.

I’ve never shopped through bonanza. But I agree the eBay ones get taken right down!

The listings are already gone, but did they actually say "Junk?" I've never seen that before.

I got lucky because I still had the window open and could see the listing. The "junk" reference is in the description of the listing and is evidently one of the ratings used to describe the condition, though for "junk" ratings, it's "prohibited," whatever that means. Why have a rating if you're not allowed to use it? Or why have that rating if you won't sell items rated as such?

Makes no sense to me but here's the part of the description showing ratings:

ETA: Since I still had the listings open, I might as well show the creeds from the bags. (Clearly, Japanese sellers use google for some type of translation software. Why not use it to (at least) check out serial numbers and styles?!?!?)

The top posts (fakes from Dione Bassett) were from August and those fakes weren't removed nor any of the subsequent fakes that were also posted and reported.

I'm bumping these posts as well as saying that unless and until Tradesy starts (again) responding to reports, I will no longer be authenticating items listed there nor will I recommend the site.

Apparently, Tradesy is no better and no more responsive than Poshmark.

Tradesy's promised of No Fake Sh*t - You deserve to get exactly what you pay for — or we’ll make it right -
Authenticity Promise is a lie.

Omg I just recently purchased from this seller and ended up returning the bag for a full refund as it was not very well advertised! Bag came with bunch of ink stains in the pockets that were not shown in the listing photos! I found it sketchy because there were bunch of photos in the listings but zero photo of the stains, i felt like he was trying to hide it. I didnt authenticate it tho so Im not sure if it was fake! It was a pocket purse in bone. Thanks for this heads up

The above fakes were removed from Tradesy and because Tradesy responds to reports, I went through
Dione Bassett
's other listings of Coach and found 19 more fakes mixed in with the 500+ items.

IMO, sellers who mix are WAY more dangerous to buyers because buyers tend to trust a seller with authentic items.

If others would like to report, I'll happily post the listings. However the purpose of this post is to warn buyers to be cautious if considering this seller's items.

Personally, I don't recommend Dione Bassett on Tradesy and will not authenticate her listings if they come up on the AT Coach thread.

Most of these fakes aren't even close!

Again, Tradesy (unlike Poshmark and Etsy) does remove fakes when reported!
I'm not impressed with Tradesy any longer.

After the 7 fakes from my previous posts earlier yesterday were removed within a couple of hours, I decided to go through the rest of the 527 Coach listings that Dione Bassett has.

The 19 fakes posted above were found and reported, first early Tuesday evening and again this morning.

Unfortunately, no action has been taken and for those 19 bags ranging in price from between $115 and $300, that's a lot of money being scammed from a lot of buyers!

Unless this is just a delay in their taking action, I will no longer authenticate for nor recommend Tradesy as being an honest or safe marketplace.

I hadn't looked at Dione Bassett's listings in a while but this post encouraged me to go back and look again. And not surprisingly, I found that she still doesn't make even the least effort to verify her items.

Some poor sucker will be scammed for $222 for this fake: https://www.tradesy.com/i/coach-bucket-xl-legacy-duffel-vintage-suede-brown-leather-tote/31107491/

And $249 for this fake: https://www.tradesy.com/i/coach-lag...intage-9090-black-gold-leather-tote/20225954/
And $147 for this POS: https://www.tradesy.com/i/coach-legacy-vintage-9966-dark-brown-gold-leather-cross-body-bag/27855144/

I'm sure there are probably more fakes but I am not wasting more time on this seller. DO NOT BUY FROM TRADESY SELLER Dione Bassett.
