Thank you, love! I have sent several messages detailing the situation ( that I wasn't purposely trying to damage her package or mislead her - I even mention in my closet that I'm new at packaging items so they may be wonky but I have examined them so many times - five stars, no one else has complained. )The buyer responded but I have decided against saying anything more to her. It was startling to witness someone be so picky about a barely noticeable glue residue mark from manufacturing. I have said my case - now it is time to wait. I'm sorry that I am derailing the conversation. I'll post stuff I thrifted on Monday. Thanks for listening to me ramble.

If Canada post damaged it, then it sounds like there might be insurance to cover that. Did you buy the label from Posh? Or is the item fine, just the box damaged? I have no experience with Posh, but I can imagine that if she found a stain that wasn't disclosed, they could very well find in her favor.

I try not to get too upset by things like this, not always successfully. I figure I'm going to have problems in about 1 out of 20 sales. If I go a long time without a problem, I know one is coming. It's best not to fight them, at least on ebay. I had one on Paypal where the buyer complained about the color. I had heard about earlier cases in which color wasn't a valid reason to return, and the Paypal rep assured me I would win the case, but I didn't. I relisted with the exact same pictures and the new buyer loved it.

The package corners have been torn.There's huge gouge marks on the packaging. It's awful. Whoever was handling this item really wasn't careful. One of the employees should've noticed this and sent the item back so I could've dealt with it properly.The label was purchased from Poshmark, so I could very well contact Canada Post if Poshmark doesn't rule in my favour. I did bluntly ask for the item to be returned so that I can sell it elsewhere (for more money, might I add, this person got a very good deal hence my irritation at mentioning such an insignificant mark that can be removed easily). I tried my best to react professionally but it was tough, even when I have been doing this for sometime. The buyer sent me another message but I have chosen not to respond anymore. I have given Poshmark the proper evidence and refuted her perspective. Thank you for your perspective - it's really comforting to know that I have support from my fellow thriters!

Hey, everyone, just an update:

I decided to just accept the return so that I can get my item back and resell it locally for more money. Poshmark ruled it in her favour which is honestly better than allowing her to leave me a negative review. The buyer will have to pay extra money for the return as she'll probably use packaging that weighs more (is it bad this feels like justice?) I dislike picky buyers so this is a win for me. Thank you everybody for your feedback!

Went to the flea market and only got some cleaning supplies. Left went to the beautician. Decided to go back to the flea market, 15 mins. before they close. I saw a brown box...lettering turned to the side, I thought it was an empty box or if best a candle, asked vendor to allow closer look ...My first Louis Vuitton snowglobe. The vendor said $5. Sold. It currently sells over the way for $850.00.
7 hours...hundreds of people...guess it was meant for me. Thank you.
