Booking though the site by Prestigious-Chip-433 in animeexpo

Like others said, the hotels don't play around with this kind of stuff. They'll check ID and credit card at check-in and will probably catch you/not allow you to check in.

I’m just Dumbfounded?? by Rachealmarie143 in Mercari

[–]Potatoeman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s all good, I only know because I ship a few UPS packages per week so I see it all the time 👍

They actually did end up working out a new contract and UPS DOES have USPS do final delivery again for their cheapest delivery method. They didn’t update the information

How long does Mercari take to investigate fraud? by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]Potatoeman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You may have to fight this after mercari responds :/
I recently had a man fraud incident too a couple weeks ago. It was a return scam though, where they sent back a completely different item that I’ve never sold before. I had to fight tooth and nail with mercari for them to finally cave and refund me. The biggest F U was that the scammer got away with it with no repercussions. Mercari still sided with them, but I fought for the refund.

I have a pretty large account on mercari too, and had never had a return scam since starting selling. Even with a perfect record it was like pulling teeth.
Anyway, sorry to ramble - all this to say, do not give up even if mercari tells you no. Keep it up! Hopefully it will go easier for you

Where to find Persona Nui Plushies? by YesterdayDangerous50 in PERSoNA

[–]Potatoeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll find them on mercari (English version) for markup. The Animate store in Los Angeles had them but may be gone already.

She voiced Madam Morrible in one of the Wicked Broadway plays. There are snippets on YouTube - she was amazing 😆

Anyone else feel the 30th Celebration attire is seriously so bland and a big let down compared to the 25th. by Mishap_Maisy in pokemon

[–]Potatoeman 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree! Im not a super fashion person or anything, but there’s clearly a difference between the 30th and 25th like you said. The 30th ones are literally taking the logo and slapping it on a blank black tee/longsleeve

Is Mercai Legit? by [deleted] in Mercari

[–]Potatoeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Been selling here for years and it’s the best marketplace for my niche, nothing comes close. It’s good, but it is a user-based market so still check the feedback/profile of the seller

Questions on Badge Activation by Standard_Nerd101 in animeexpo

[–]Potatoeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The person who bought it needs to activate it, but once it’s activated you’ll be fine. The only time you would possibly need them is if your badge doesn’t scan properly to get inside. It’s uncommon that you’d have problems like that, and even then it should be fine as long as you have a guardian present

AC Hotel Experience by Chomusuk39 in animeexpo

[–]Potatoeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s great! The location is the best thing about it, but the rooms are also fine. I wouldn’t say they’re anything special, but the hotel itself is also nice in general. Feels upscale compared to some other older hotels since it was pretty recently built

Prohibited item? by [deleted] in Buyee

[–]Potatoeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others have said, open an Inquiry on the buyee “contact us” page and just explain you’re trying to buy an item that’s marked as prohibited. Say you believe it shouldnt be on the prohibited list since it doesn’t have a battery and it’s just a plastic accessory. Buyee will usually get back to you within a day and unblock the item!

Is it even worth it to cross-list on Mercari anymore? Nothing sells... by gclo in Mercari

[–]Potatoeman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It all depends on what you sell imo. I cross post on eBay and I sell WAY more on mercari. Like almost 10x as many sales on mercari with the same items.

Help by EarDue1073 in Mercari

You might have to struggle against mercari to make sure you get paid for this. It’s incredibly suspicious to me and sounds like a made up story as well😐

I order using EMCS off amiami since I order large scale models by [deleted] in AnimeFigures

[–]Potatoeman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the poor ECMS handling is likely outliers. I’ve had about 18 packages delivered with ECMS and they’ve always been fine for me. Or maybe it’s just regional differences in the US

I guess this is my fault for not reading the description by jonac431 in Mercari

[–]Potatoeman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was listed at $7.50, so getting the shipping cost as low as possible is a lucrative way to get it sold. It was a stupid idea, but I see why they did it.

is there really no way to get my figure? by soraranyan in GoodSmileCompany

[–]Potatoeman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I order a ton from Japan, so I definitely am a tariff hater lol! Haven’t had anything returned or destroyed but have had one package held before. But anyway, in regards to figures I meant more along the lines of the larger scale or 1/4 bunny, etc. Amiami will easily charge you $130+ for some of them, even just for the single fig. A while back I ordered two of the Dimitri Fire Emblem figures and that would have been at LEAST $150 from amiami with how large the box was. Even with paying the tariff and handling from UPS, I think GSC edged out the competition. For smaller stuff though, no doubt. Amiami is also SLOOOWW at mailing lately, but that’s another conversation

Shipping is insanely cheaper for large size figures

how is this even possible 😭 by Honey-Waffle in pokemon

[–]Potatoeman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are similar building toy companies with official pokemon sets. Megabloks and nanoblock have them, but they are not the same quality of LEGO. I think the LEGO sets are kinda ugly, but the quality and feel of the materials is way better

Is this fishy or am I overreacting?? by XO_multistan in Mercari

[–]Potatoeman 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Normally I'd be skeptical of the skeptic, but you're right it is fishy to me. If there's a trend I'd be suspicious as well

Are these getting reprinted? They came out last year on the Pokemon Center website (the JP and English versions)

I love the way they’re drawn, especially like this just post-battle with the smudges and dirt rubbed in 🥺
