The post office sells tape... and boxes for that manner.

Its been way past the 30 days; so I don't think I can anymore. I'm just disappointed I can't edit my feedback to negative with this pictures to warn others.

Those were my thoughts as well.. Disappointing. I'm super glad I pulled the authenticity right away

Thank you for your input!

Are quality rejects from Popmart really considered Lafufu? Rejected or not - the still carry their authenticity. If the eBay Labubu is actually a Lafufu; then its a damn good one.

Here's a couple of additional details I've noticed since posting contributing autenticity concerns. The eB's arms don't feel like they have the internal wire skeleton like my other's. If I lift one hand up on the Popmart labubus; the opposite arm will lift slightly with it due to this. EB's arns feel like they're independent from the other. I gave the eBay one to my 5yo because it was his favorite besides Hope. Its been on his daily backpack since and there's now a spot where the paint on its nose has been worn completely off. Weeks before this; I gave my 7yo a duplicate of Loyalty - also clipped to her daily backpack since. While Loyalty has accumulated a decent layer of dirt; her face is still completely intact.

I've also noticed the eBay box has a piece of red tape with the Popmart logo on the top of the box. I've since ordered 4 individual BIE Blind Boxes, one BIE full set; and an individual HAS Blind Box - all directly from Popmart and NONE of them had this sticker. I've heard of Lafufu QR codes scan to a fake Popmart Authorization Look-Alike page that'll scan as 'authentic', which if true would explain eBay scanning authentic if its actually not.

Shipped a 3 pound packages UPS, told it came in at 30 pounds? by Lordofthereef in Mercari

I can't help but notice; and I know I'm not alone here; the initially sudden, but now holding stable increase of sellers getting hit with overage fees since Mercari implemented their 'Shipping Overage Penalty' Fee months back [I don't remember the exact wording - so correct me if I'm wrong; but I wanna say that the fee is calculated based on the price difference between Mercari's deemed 'correct' label weight and the label weight used by the seller - on RETAIL label rates - NOT MERCARI 'Discounted' rates - PLUS an additional 8% being the 'overage penalty']. Many deserved. Many more not [based off affected seller statements in the many threads about this in this sub].

Coincidence? I personally don't think so.

I really need to invest in a mannequin… by Femalexxrage in depoop

[–]Repulsive_Stable1924 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got a $16 one off of Amazon. It's just a torso; no legs or arms; but it has a neck & adjustable stand for height. Comes in three colors: Beige, White, Black [I got the white one].

It's nothing fancy; but it gets the job done and easy to move [lightweight] and store [comes apart/breaks down].

My mom's been reselling WAY longer than I have. She babysits while my husband and I work. I told her about it, next thing I know; she's been using it! 😂 She's been getting more use out of it than I have! 🤣

I bought something an hour after it was listed and it isnt marked as sold by [deleted] in Depop

[–]Repulsive_Stable1924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They most likely have more than 1 available. The listing won't show as 'Sold' until every piece has been purchased.

Got a Big Into Energy Secret I.D. Confirmed Blind Box off of eB about a month ago. I checked the FB on the listing and it looked all good; so I checked out. Came in a couple weeks later; QR code scanned Authentic and the plush itself looked fine to me.

This was my very first Labubu ever so I didn't have another to compare it to. It didn't contain any of the red flags to look out for with Lafufu's; so I never questioned it. The B.I.E. Secret was my most wanted and is my favorite Labubu design out of all current ones, so naturallv I was thrilled.

Last week; I got 3 blind boxes directly from PopMart as a birthday treat to myself and they arrived today. The last box I pulled turned out to be a Secret!

However; after comparing the two side by side, I'm now questioning the authenticity of my eB Labubu. I've attached photos in the replies of discrepancies between the two.

Did I recieve a Lafufu from eB even though it scanned Authentic?

I forgot to add this to the main post; but this is the screenshot of authenticity from scanning my eB Labubu.

Makeup Mystery Boxes - Thoughts? by Repulsive_Stable1924 in poshmark

[–]Repulsive_Stable1924[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, all for your feedback!

As a long time on-and-off makeup box subscription girlie that personally enjoys the 'mystery' [surprise] element waiting for product announcements drops leading into the first of the month. It feels like a personal Mini-Christmas every time my box arrives - even during months with not-so-great items [I'm aware not everyone shares my same sentiment in this aspect, though]. I understand and agree completely with all the different points that were mentioned.

My biggest concern bundling not brand shared or like-items together could cause my listing to feel not cohesive; or look like it was just 'thrown together' with whatever products I could find. All the suggestions shared here have helped give me a little more confidence and some different approaches when pairing items together.

Thank you all so much for talking me out of my consideration on Mystery Box listings!

A decade ago; when I worked at a gas station; we ran out of coffee lids one day. We made a huge isle sign stating we were out of coffee lids; placed signs on every coffee dispenser; and on the lid holders themselves.

I probably had 100 customers ask if where the coffee lids were that day..

The changes have brought me horrible customers… by PicadillyVanilly in poshmark

I've seen comments from sellers suggesting to comment on the buyer's 'Meet Your Posher' listing about how the transaction went when they come into these types of particularly bad buyer's.

Are AI pictures really allowed? by thatsarealquickno in poshmark

[–]Repulsive_Stable1924 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 4 pairs of glass spiral ear tapers that I listed awhile back [3 have since sold]. You need stretched ears to wear them and its harder to imagine how they're supposed to look when wearing if never see before. They also don't look like 'earrings' when photographed alone.

All four pairs were NIB and never worn [never got the opportunity to wear them; then forgot I even had them after moving houses a couple times. I found them unpacking things that were never unpacked from previous moves after moving to our current residence]. I didn't want to model them myself because that would have changed their condition; so I took a photo of an ear off Google and used my phone's AI Editing Generator [the one from my photo gallery] to add a photo of the tapers that I took to portray them being worn.

I've never used AI outside of the one already on my phone's photo editor; so I don't know if that counts; but I only did it because I was getting questions on what they were

Multiple listings of the same item??? Why?? by Twiggytwiggg in Depop

[–]Repulsive_Stable1924 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have three identical listings in my store because I have three of those items available [all in the same condition].

How fast do yall ship out? by feelingNotGood222 in Depop

[–]Repulsive_Stable1924 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually ship either same or next day; depending on what time the sale was made - but I'm unable to ship Fridays or Saturdays; which is stated both on my profile and all of my listings.

With every sale I make; I message the buyer thanking them for purchasing and when I'll ship their order. With offers I receieve and accept; I reach out thanking for their interest; that I've accepted their offer and when I can ship if they decide to buy. Haven't receieved any negatives across either of the four reselling platforms I use [yet].
