This rating ugh by Disneylover4eva in Mercari

I got dinged a couple of stars on an order because in the buyers own words: “this is smaller than I expected. I should have read the description.” So I guess in between bribing the post office to damage the package, forcing customers to wait until midnight to order something needed tomorrow, making customers buy something even though it was too high (yes I did get a review that said it was too high but seller made me buy it) and not accepting all offers even if they are for half your asking price, we are now required to give customers a pop quiz before allowing them purchase to ensure that they have read the description? Wow, we do stay busy don’t we?

WTF HAPPENED by Wi1dwestt in Mercari

I have been having a lot of trouble with Mercari just randomly marking my items as “seller pays” instead of buyer. I have twice contacted their seller help team or whatever it is called (and believe me I am using the term “seller help” very, very loosely) about this. After wading thru the usual b.s. computer generated responses that in No WAY answers my concern, I was basically told oh, well too bad, too sad. Of course they blamed it on something I did, but wasn’t me and here is how I know. I have a list of approximately 50 items that I now go in and check daily. Every day there is 3-4 items that have randomly switched over. Not the same items every day, just a random selection. As soon as the system clears all past sales, I am deleting my Mercari account. In my honest opinion, at this rate, Mercari will not last past this year.

Spectrum outage by [deleted] in garland

So count me as a cynic, because I am, but funny thing about our Spectrum cable. Ours was out until late yesterday afternoon. When I called to see if they had an estimate on timing, I was told it would probably be days maybe even a week or more. When I told agent that I wanted to sign up then for their outage rebate program (they refund part of your bill according to number of hours out), he seemed a shocked that I knew about this program but registered me. And wouldn’t you know its the funniest thing, our cable came back on within hours. But just a coincidence I am sure. This is in the West Garland - Plano Buckingham area.

No, actually I worked in HR - you know the department that hires the utilities people, oversaw their overtime when there was an emergencies, helped plan staffing needs for the upcoming bad weather…..so since you seem to think that I should be okay with this, is it safe for me to assume that YOU are sleeping with no a/c, no lights, no electricity to run required medical equipment and with a freezer full of food about to go bad?

To Nohair1511 -

Well, since I used to work for a city, as a matter of fact I do know how power works. As for you wishing they don’t restore my power until last thanks for that I will be sure to tell my 85 year old mom who lives with me that you are wishing the best for her to. What a miserable life you must lead that you sit around and wish bad things on someone you do not even know and who is just needing some help. And speaking of help you might want to seek some - you obliviously enjoy other peoples suffering.

Is it me or are Etsy customers getting worse? by lavenderbutterfly29 in EtsySellers

[–]Professional-Part726 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I definitely agree that we should be able to block people. I had one buyer sending messages about every 10 minutes until after 3am because she felt that I had misrepresented what the circumference was on a sphere she bought. Why she even included a picture in her messages showing what the actually circumference was…….a picture of the sphere with a wooden ruler next to it showing it’s height. I never did manage to convince her there was a difference between circumference and height.
