Never mind :smile: I was too impatient. It took a good 10 minutes after saving my CC info until the auto-buy feature was available.
I found a random NWT lululemon jacket to buy so I could finally input my cc and see the feature. I have noticed two things:
1) If someone else has done "auto-buy" on an item in your cart (someone did on the jacket I bought), they will tip you off and say you need to buy by cart expiration or you will lose the item
2) There is no auto buy option on an item in someone's cart where someone else already did autobuy (makes sense).
 
ladies...what is this? A fake Hermes coin purse? I found it in the unbranded bags section.

Well they're not trying to sell it as authentic. I also see some knock off stella mccartney cell phone pouches listed, but again they're all under unbranded and at relatively low prices.

Just seems like a really random thing to make fake? A brown coin pouch?
It's still illegal whether it's sold as "unbranded," "inspired," "fake" or "authenticity unknown."

The law requires that sellers know that items are authentic and if they don't know, they have to find out. And in cases where authenticity can't be confirmed, items can't be sold. (That's the law; I'm not implying that sellers and sites don't violate the law!)

I'm guessing the high school kids processing the items in the warehouse had no idea what it was.

Was it a black lululemon vest size 10? I was trying to auto buy it ;)
I’ve had success with the new feature. I was able to get 3 items and lost out on one.
 
That's good that they are still paying you.

so they first promised to pay and now they changed their mind. so unprofessional:(
"Thanks for getting back in touch, because this item was not transferred into our account you will not receive the payout. Sorry for any confusion around this. Please proceed with the reclaim process and we will refund you the shipping fee for this item"

Ugh! Sorry this happened :(
Did they at least restore the item to the site as available so that others can purchase?

I'm so sorry this happened. That's just wrong.

My own Luxe item that has been almost constantly reserved for 90 days finally expired and I reclaimed it. I was not willing to lower the price and basically give it away. So, I'm just hoping it comes back to me with the original box and tissue and keeper bags. It was a pair of shoes so I might list them myself or send them to TheRealReal.
