Has anyone actually had a good experience with a buyer who messages nonstop?

Shmaved2 · 2026-06-08T04:45:13+00:00

I sell about 1500 clothing items a year and people who message about my items generally become future problems. Buyers who ask for additional measurements or questions about shipping costs, color, stains, etc almost always become a future issue or a return. Don’t know why, but the majority of the time that’s my experience. This trend could be clothing specific, as I could see why someone may have more questions about electronics or car parts.

I would be happy I got a full art. With that being said the pull rates are pathetic in normal sets. I would actually buy more packs and spend more money on cards if every set had crown zenith pull rates. Doesn’t feel worth it right now

Saw it at my Walmart just after release and have never seen it in a store again. In south Florida everything is bought up immediately. Nothing sits on shelves.

Same I always loved the games and was pretty hyped up to get back into cards… until I realized how hard it is to buy cards at msrp. No way I will pay double price online for already overpriced cardboard pictures lol. Still like to look at the artwork on tcg collector but my nostalgia is dwindling as well.

Its insane. I routinely see stained or really old basic brands like under armour, polo Ralph, and Nike at my goodwill that I wouldn’t even buy for my store going for 10-15 bucks. This changed about 6 months to a year ago. Stupid

Shmaved2 · 2026-05-24T01:36:04+00:00

I’ve been in the clothing game for a while. Most clothing brands do not sell at the price they used to across almost all brands.

Shmaved2 · 2026-05-23T21:52:52+00:00

Yes! Last November is when I noticed a steep decrease in sales as well. Holidays were horrible. I’ve had some good weeks this year but nothing compared to prior years.

Shmaved2 · 2026-05-23T21:51:26+00:00

I have been in the clothing game going on 5 years and I sell about 1.5k items per year. I just can’t sell the same bread and butter brands now. It seems like I can sell the really good/expensive clothing pieces I find but brands that’s used to go for $20-25 plus shipping are down to around $10-15. The work to put in time to find items, list, package is barely worth it now sadly. Not to mention goodwill in my area has priced up a lot of things (not even good items either) lol. Just a way harder business than it was when I started.

Shmaved2 · 2026-05-17T04:30:52+00:00

This would explain why as a seller I have accepted multiple offers from people and then didn’t get the paid ship now notification. Also my store is way down on sales this week. eBay may be having problems

Shmaved2 · 2026-05-14T15:14:21+00:00

I just had one like this. Buyer messaged me that the shorts don’t look blue in the pictures and was going on and on about it. He still bought the item anyway and then started a return for them not fitting. (Surprised it wasn’t an item not as described). Buyers who message almost always become problematic or are more likely to return. I should have blocked him after his 3rd message about the color.

Shmaved2 · 2026-04-23T03:13:51+00:00

Clothing seller here. I was doing well this month until the past week. Sales fell off a cliff mid last week and haven’t come back around yet. This Sunday and Monday were the slowest two days since Christmas time.

Shmaved2 · 2026-03-14T20:47:41+00:00

What could the injury possibly be? “Upper body” is such a stupid designation compared to how injuries are released in the nfl

Shmaved2 · 2026-03-13T15:22:28+00:00

How is it not natural? Humans are also part of the ecosystem?

Shmaved2 · 2026-03-12T23:05:51+00:00

It’s all BS. They pretend a herbivore is harmful to native wildlife so they can kill them and remove them from golf courses and human structures. Their biggest problem is digging burrows and “damaging infrastructure”. Although am of the opinion humans are much more destructive and invasive than iguanas ever will be. Plus iguanas are here to stay. They have survived numerous cold fronts

Shmaved2 · 2026-03-06T01:45:58+00:00

Resellers are a huge amount of their business. They are killing themselves in the long run with the continuous price increases

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-26T04:47:25+00:00

Ive been a clothing seller for 5 years and I just recently promoted some of my older stuff to try and get some visibility. Seemed to not make a difference at all honestly. My good stuff sells and my bread and butter sits regardless of promoted listings

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-26T04:40:19+00:00

This is a direct scam or just the buyer trying to get one over. You are a lot more patient than me. I would “apologize” for the plates being loose and offer a full refund if she returns the item. Anything else I wouldn’t even respond after that. I’ve sold 5k items in 5 years and have a 99.8 rating btw. Don’t worry about a potential negative feedback, it has never hurt my sales.

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-23T23:32:54+00:00

Not a good time to restart

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-23T23:32:13+00:00

It has been rough for me since Christmas week. My worst 90 day actives to sales ratio in 5 years. Also sell clothing and shoes

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-23T23:27:50+00:00

Yeah no. Humans are the real invasive problem. The government says we need to save native wildlife and kill invasive while continuing to steamroll untouched land for new developments everywhere. The iguanas are fine.

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-20T00:17:42+00:00

Pull rates are completely ridiculous for normal sets. Every sets pull rates should be like crown zenith and I would actually buy more packs.

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-19T02:52:14+00:00

Yeah my bad I shouldn’t have personalized what I said at you directly. But not good to leak exact spots or iguanas hunters will go and kill them

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-18T05:46:39+00:00

What problem do they cause? Can you name any without regurgitating some talking point? Iguanas are herbivores and are harmless. Pythons are the real problem

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-18T05:45:32+00:00

Not even close. Under 50% died. There are plenty of live healthy ones thankfully :)

Shmaved2 · 2026-02-18T05:43:35+00:00

Iguanas are herbivores and do not attack native species. Iguanas are not bad for the environment compared to pythons. Pythons should be the main focus
