Seller: Linda's Stuff discussion..

I sent a large number of designer items to Linda's Stuff last year and most of it sold quickly and I received checks as they were sold by the end of the month that they sold in.

Most of the items I sold I had purchased at NYC consignment stores or Saks Off 5th Avenue and were very gently worn. (Some were from SAKS, Bergdorf Goodman and Bloomingdales' on sale too)

I do not know how they treat the items when they are received however, I send them in impeccable condition. Everything has been dry-cleaned or washed and pressed. I wrap each item in a drycleaning bag so that it does not wrinkle in shipping and I send a list of every item with a description to them. When I saw them on her site they looked fine, however I would have liked it if she had used my descriptions as they were way better than theirs. I have noticed that some items that were not mine look pretty shabby in the photos and frankly I cannot imagine anyone having the nerve to try and sell them when they should be sent to Goodwill for donation. Do they do a good job? I cannot say yes or no.

I can say that the people I speak to on the phone are very courteous, they send:doggie: UPS to pick up my items at her expense and then the checks start coming in. Could I do better listing them myself? Then I would have to pack and ship them and deal with returns which I do not want to do. So far the experience has been painless.
 
I ordered a pair of designer jeans from her and never heard a peep regarding the status of my order until I called. I was told they no longer had the item and forgot to remove the listing. Ok. But when were they planning to let me know?

In their defense, they did issue a credit immediately and told me they'd give me 20% off of my next purchase. I never bothered to buy from LS again.
 
You want to laugh? A sad, sorrowful laugh?

She has a prada purse listed right now and states the condition is "good, slight wear". If you look at the purse - THE HANDLES ARE MISSING!!! The leather handles are gone. She has instead tied a piece of red ribbon to the bales and is selling it with that (with unfinished edges) as the handles.

Without disclosing that the handles have been damaged and are missing.


I'd say unbelieveable, but this is just an good of example of how shoddy her listings/sales are.

Well, at least, they were being kind to you. With my recent incident, they had the nerve to lie to state that the item was shipped in their feedback column?! despite, I had received an email (in writing) from them after 3 weeks of follow up from my end, that the item was no longer available.

"Your order shipped yesterday but we were out of stock on this jacket so I just refunded the $65.00 purchase price plus $2.50 additional shipping. Please accept my apology and I hope you love the rest of your goodies. Hugs. Linda"

Feeback column
" 3 weeks later, item not available. Unprofessional and poor customer service

How do I post a picture here? Look at the photo of the back of the purse. The red ribbon cloth is just TIED to the hardware.
Here ya go!! (Is it possible that she doesn't realize that the ribbon is a makeshift strap replacement?)

BB, I am like you in that I TRY and give people the benefit of the doubt but...how can she be a bag expert and not look realllll close at that thing and wonder wtf did the consignor think I am?

I don't even know what to say. As for the PHO, wow. They lied on that feedback?? :weird:

Like I said - have never bought from her but have sent her messages about her merchandise before (general questions etc) that have gone unanswered.

This, ladies and gentleman, is how you destroy your own business.
