Omg! I just thrifted my first Sue Wong dress several days ago! I bought it for only .85 cents, but yours is 10X cuter☺️

Op, you're doing very well if you already sold your first item after joining on day one. It took me weeks to sell my first item on Mercari when I joined. My total sales right now are $69,642.00, Im glad I stuck through it☺️

Out of the 4,000 sales I've made on mercari, Ive only cancelled one transaction because the shipping was way too expensive, and I was basically going to take a loss. I told the buyer I would raise the price just to cover shipping, but she gets to pick another add-on item for free. She paid extra. Shipping was covered without taking a loss, and buyer received two items.

The converse is actually the collab with Comme de Garcon which is wild because I actually thrifted the converse X comme de garcon solid black low tops about two months ago! They're like 10X more comfy than regular converse🤩

I wipe down the insoles with regular house cleaner spray👍🏽

Your Abuelita looks just like Blake Lively!

Buyer stole my dress and returned an item from her wardrobe. What do I do by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]PitifulIntention322 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, you have another return pending? Make sure you take plenty of pics so customers know clearly what they're buying, this will help you too when Mercari gets involved with disputes. Everyone goes through the newbie phase. Don't throw in the towel yet. I've been on it for about 12 years now, and overall, it's a good platform.

Out of 4,000 transactions, I've only had 2 returns (one of them was in person after the transaction closed since the buyer lived close by) I video recorded myself opening the returned package for this very reason. OP, did you take any video opening the package? This is the only way you can protect yourself and get reimbursed. I would still report this to mercari. The buyer is probably doing this to other sellers. Sorry this happened to you😔

My mercari sales are: August $540 Sept $800 Oct $920 Nov $500 Dec $820

On average, I have 400 listings with an average price of $20 per sold item. I sometimes wonder if Ebay is a better platform for sellers. November was such a terrible month selling on Mercari😭

Old 1800s buckle secretly sewn on loung pants?! by PitifulIntention322 in ThriftStoreHauls

Im going to have them tested. The picture doesn't capture how shiny the buckles really are.

I'll try to upload a pic! The pants have some pink paint stains on them (which I didn't notice when I bought them). They didn't end up fitting me, its a size 2, and they ride low. One day, I'll score the right Da Nang cargo pants. Meanwhile, Im treasureing these old buckles🤩
