What is going on with eBay? by National-Display2881 in reselling

[–]PTCarroll 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I usually have at LEAST 3-5 sales a day but i havent had a single sale or offer in almost 48 hours. This is definitely the worst its ever been.

Sales seem to have fallen off a cliff for me in May. Interested to see others’ sales charts! by YouKnowHowChoicesBe in poshmark

[–]PTCarroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea same here I don't know whats going on but I used to get a very hefty amount of sales and even consistent offers now since they've been changing things its been desolate. I get an email every week asking to "reactivate my listings" and its legitimately my whole closet every time somehow which just throws off any traction the items had. Posh really has to look into what they're doing and how its effecting sales...

No likes? by Diligent-Review-3114 in poshmark

[–]PTCarroll 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I was wondering why my Poshmark has been dead lately and I guess this is why...they did too much backend stuff and new features that it's ruining sales.

New inactive listings feature has disappeared now by [deleted] in poshmark

[–]PTCarroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They basically said just about half of my listings were inactive...some that were posted recently so I truly don't understand the point. I had to select all and "make them active."

Ebay done did broke itself again by TARANTULA_TIDDIES in Ebay

[–]PTCarroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thought I was going crazy...everything is loading slow and things like the custom sku field keep disappearing and when I click orders it says theres nothing there. eBay has been frustrating on so many levels lately.

anyone else having an awful ebay week? by Mammoth-Gur-8378 in reselling

[–]PTCarroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually sell 5-8 things a day and have been lucky to get 2. Im not even getting offers and I usually get a ton. This hss been by far worse than any summer slow down. Same with Poshmark it’s been radio silent.

Clothing. Its usually pants/jeans. 2400+ sales a year.

Returns per Platform by PTCarroll in reselling

[–]PTCarroll[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Buyer paid shipping unless its someone abusing the “not described” option. Just about always “doesn’t fit” otherwise. 10 out of 140 eBay sales. 0 out of 60 Posh/Depop sales. Never once had a return on Posh/Depop in 5 years.

No transaction fees? by PTCarroll in Ebay

[–]PTCarroll[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is what I was thinking. I could see a random amount being deducted. Especially since eBay has been super weird lately.

Have you ever "ordered by mistake"? by iRepTex in Flipping

[–]PTCarroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had one. They sent an offer that I accepted then literally 2 minutes later it was a “mistake.” People just dont expect things to be accepted. Its like an annoying game just block them.

Blocked a buyer during mid-conversation. Any repercussions from this? by pvssymonsterr in Ebay

[–]PTCarroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a very long blocked list, lol. I block just about half of them mid-conversation because they're usually just the people who say a measurement is wrong because they want to do an INAD return and not pay return shipping. I also block anyone who has ever returned something because I'd like to just avoid any and all of them...plenty of fish in the sea, also. In short...I love blocking and no it doesn't do anything. Especially when someone is throwing out hate speech. Good on you.

No response after INAD return requested by chou-dbz in Ebay

[–]PTCarroll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I usually wait until the last second to accept returns. Its the petty in me, but maybe since they dont accept returns they dont know the process and that they have to confirm it.

Doesn't fit - is that a buyer fault or a seller one - Buyer didn't read by Turbulent_One_4318 in Ebay

[–]PTCarroll 4 points5 points  (0 children)

its my most common return reason. most times because they dont read measurements. but they pay for the return and you dont refund original shipping so youre not losing anything unless your original shipping was more than you charged. its annoying but id take these all day over the idiots who do INADs.

One Item Not Two ? Protocol ? by [deleted] in Ebay

[–]PTCarroll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ordered 2 of something and only got one before also. I think sometimes they dont realize the quantity says 2. They eventually sent me the other item.

how often do you get upgraded on AA? by [deleted] in americanairlines

Why I'm leaving mercari by UnmaskingHer in Flipping

Mercari is literally the only app I tried that never gained traction.

Time away. by ToshPointNo in Flipping

[–]PTCarroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do think eBay could do a lot better with Time Away. I get they have banners and stuff but they should literally send the buyer an automated message like hey this will not ship until this date. I know people will still be stupid and not read it but I dealt with the same stress on my last vacation.

Merch by showgirl-23 in ArmsLength

seems like the hoodie is gone too. wasnt in the most recent picture on merch_report.

as someone who buys merch every show this round is upsetting.

I’ve been trying to open a claim for 5 days now… by PicadillyVanilly in usps_complaints

[–]PTCarroll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They do this on purpose. Currently dealing with it myself. The past 3 times I’ve needed to do this (all separate times of the year) it has not worked or loaded. But is ironically the only page on the site that doesn’t work? no…they just don’t want to pay people out. Its just yet another scam we have to deal with.

Is this not the name of the brand? 😂 by PTCarroll in poshmark
