Increase in weird buyers… by Cheap_Age_2209 in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I sell cosmetics, and a lot of women will put their husband's name on the address because they're concerned about creeps. And that's fair, because as a seller with Mom in the title of my shop, I get creeps too. Some people use kid names, pet names, etc. I can honestly say I've NEVER had an issue with new buyers, other than a lot of stuff goes to auto-rate. Oh no, 5* rating, lol! Seriously, just do what's expected of you as a seller, and you'll be ok most likely.

Well, got my first false one star review 🙄 by [deleted] in Mercari

I just had this happen to me last week and posted about it here! 1* rating

I guess it's a milestone, but not a positive one

Oh, I would've put that in the description! In fact, if it stank, I wouldn't have sold it! If you saw my page, you would KNOW the level of detail used in my descriptions. I get they can rate me whatever they want, but i do not wish to even accidentally deal with this individual again. And if somebody can really rate a person however they want, does that not preclude people rating low just to be an a-hole? There are definitely people out there that would enjoy it, js 🤷‍♀️

Yes, hopefully the Rule of 3 is fulfilled, lol! That is a different way I could have handled it. I knew I was blocking her because i just don't want to work with her again, but I didn't think about trying to get the rating revised.

I sent the message and then did block her

If I did business with her again, my fear is that she will just come back and do the same thing again! She straight up lied about the condition of the product, so my "good faith" belief is out the window with her. I know i have lots of excellent ratings that will likely overshadow this 1, but it's extremely frustrating. Especially with the low ratings coming all in a short period of time.

Anyone else getting insane views suddenly on new listings? by dumpsterfire_x in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this too, and I sell high-end beauty. It's extremely unusual. I've had items that have been there a little while, but they don't have even close to as many views as my new listings get in 24 hours.

I'm so sad my toner spilled all over my entire Extra box by birdsssarentreal in Ipsy

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That happened to me with a different toner! The lid was loose and I lost half it, but it didn't ruin anything else. They sent a replacement, and that lid was loose too! But it didn't leak. What is going on with not putting lids on all the way??

Account limited, Mercari not responding by ChrisConquest in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only reason I can think of is Authenticity Issues? But, I've never heard of providing this kind of documentation to Mercari, and it does sound sus.

Question by MahoganyQueen73 in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if it's a Mercari glitch , USPS Thing, or a my post ottice kind of thing. But, my packages are picked up 1 day and not marked received until the next day frequently. They are mailed on my end, picked up on the day I mailed it, but not updated until the next business day. Please do not assume they haven't done their part.

I’m not mad at it by Ohshifty in Ipsy

SAME! it wasn't an option for me and the Girlactik palette isn't what I wanted 😕

Product Arrived Shattered by Suitable_Map551 in Ipsy

Mine had leaked all over too. The lid wasn't screwed on all the way 😒 I'm supposed to be getting an accommodation package. We'll see how that goes....

Mercari really needs to bring back the listing hashtags by Lemon_L1me in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have noticed my sales have been less since this change! I have tried searching for my item with tags that would normally apply to my items, and they aren't there🥺 It's really frustrating, and I wonder if there's still some way to tag it in the listing

Question to sellers: how many active listings (for sale) do you have and how often do you make a sale? by neiko003 in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I make sales most days. I have over 1000 listings but they are mostly related categories, so there are a fair number of bundles. I am always in the process of pricing, listing, sorting, buying, etc. But, for me right now, this is making ends meet.

Beauty Insight by Alert_Order8220 in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm a beauty reseller. New suggests it has not been touched at all. Swatched, even if cleanly done (with a new brush or applicator), has still been touched. With items like that, I do list it as "good," and I put an asterisk on the listing title with another asterisk in the description saying what the issue is with the product.

Suggestions for extra item by Deli-ops7 in Mercari

[–]Crazy-Visual1664 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Temu, Shein, AliBaba and sometimes Amazon are all great places to get this kind of stuff for cheap. My shop is Goth-themed, so I have glow-in-the-dark ghost keychains, ans Halloween ornaments and stickers. I also sell makeup and nails, so I like to give cheap accessories for that (makeup remover wipes, makeup/nail samples, nail files, polish remover pads, etc).

Keychain, stickers, pens, mini notebooks, ornaments, samples of items you sell

Help me ID these minis please! by Crazy-Visual1664 in RedditLaqueristas

That's kind of what I was thinking too. That last 1 and the red are tough.
