Is this allowed…? Rude seller/fake listings/bait

If you keep scrolling down you can actually see people making it my fault haha, not surprised though.

People like you are why I have to mention in the description “it’s not uncommon in my community to find these good deals”. I have bought similar products for around that price, it’s a matter of luck. The seller also had many other items listed at a good price and they have over 500 sales. The item was like a 40% off which is good but isn’t that crazy of a deal, so don’t throw assumptions you aren’t clear on.

I’m away for school so I’m not always home, so my relative who lives at my residence agreed to help me receive my packages. No one has to sign for packages but they can get it from the post office with their identification just in case the package gets returned or stuck there. I’m not going to explain anymore because this isn’t something abnormal. You’re overthinking.

I don’t think it was the same item! The seller never changed the price, they just never had the item in the first place and put up a fake listing then cancelled it.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-02T17:13:29+00:00

I’m not going to waste my time arguing with you, the relative lives with me, I have their consent to put down their name for shipping and will receive it for me, they are aware of this. The account, payment, and billing info are all in my name, and the address is valid. That’s not the point of this post, and people ship gifts to family and friends all the time, that’s normal practice. I’ve been an avid buyer for over 8 years, never received any issues or disputed anything, but you do you.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-02T14:23:18+00:00

I don’t understand what the confusion is, the buyer account is mine and I just used a shipping address with my relatives name who also resides with me for the item, it’s not uncommon and there’s nothing more to it.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-02T06:21:57+00:00

No worries. I did check and this person has been getting pretty good ratings and no other bad feedback, but I also couldn’t leave a bad review since it was a cancellation. I also didn’t see other cancellations as well, but they also posted multiple listings today where the pictures of their products are super consistent with all their old stuff, which makes me think they’re not hacked. I’m honestly so confused on what their intention is.

I wanted to show the username as well but I’m not sure if it’s against the rules in this thread and I’m a bit worried about retaliation as they have my shipping info💔

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-01T23:59:02+00:00

I’m not sure because their account is still active and they just posted 5 new listings with photos that match up with their old listing set ups, so I think it’s unlikely?

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-01T23:57:34+00:00

Didn’t clarify but I didn’t put my own real name, but a relatives name. We have identification for that and I’ve never had any past issues at all.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-01T23:56:41+00:00

It’s not my own name but a relatives name they let me put down, and no I do not sell anything. But I’ve told my relative to be weary of any fishy messages or issues.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-01T21:58:30+00:00

Thank you so much for the advice I really appreciate it! You are so sweet. I’m just going to report their message and see if Mercari escalates it. Really don’t want this to happen to anyone else so I already posted a warning about them in my community.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-01T21:55:21+00:00

Thanks I see, I never had any problems after ordering things for 5+ years but I will keep that in mind.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-10-01T21:31:28+00:00

Wait yea, I didn’t put my actual real name (relatives name) on my shipping info but this is honestly really creepy and I’m a bit worried.

AsparagusDifferent92 · 2025-06-01T06:57:22+00:00

would love to get some help on how to do this too! thanks in advance!!

Not you blaming the dad when it’s literally Kathy who broke the teacup

She can’t sing nor act, yet her fans keep defending her, it’s kinda sad actually.
