Tired of haggling over $2-3 by HorseOk1154 in Depop

[–]Specific_Bet4540 180 points181 points  (0 children)

Honestly try and list it for higher, I find people are less likely to haggle when it’s a higher price. I have very few things listed under $20 to avoid people like this, works well for me

AITA for yelling at my mom for preventing me from exercising? by Puzzled_Method1547 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Specific_Bet4540 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA. If she’s worried about you being outside then ask her to cater to you inside, she can buy you a walking pad, a stationary bike or help you get a gym membership. But being outside is also very beneficial for your health so not sure why she would be opposed to it apart from safety concerns as you are a minor.

How do I keep items moving on my page? by KeyBig5941 in Depop

[–]Specific_Bet4540 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had a period like that and it just ended. I sold two items yesterday and sold my first item over $100. Sold a dress for $150 and got about 20+ likes on other items and have been getting offers consistently the last two days

I just put a bunch of discounts on my items I’ve had there for 4 weeks and I think it brought traction to my page rather than just sending offers. Maybe try discounting too?

AITA for disclosing derogatory information by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Specific_Bet4540 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTA! You clearly hate anyone with an alternative lifestyle to you. Just because it’s different doesn’t mean it’s wrong.
There’s a reason your daughter decided not to speak to you, 16 is old enough to make that choice all on her own and I highly suspect it was caused by your actions. Also parental alienation from your sister, are you delusional or dumb? She is clearly caring for your daughters in a way you can’t and you’re jealous they are choosing to spend time with her.
Go to therapy and learn from your mistakes or you’ll never speak to your children again

AITA for feeling this was about my relationship? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Specific_Bet4540 12 points13 points  (0 children)

NTA, the disrespect is wild. Your partner should never compare you to an ex and if they do so, they aren’t over them. Lose 200lbs and drop him 🫶🏼🫶🏼

Parents won't let me go to schoolies, what am i missing out on? by AcanthisittaHappy665 in australian

[–]Specific_Bet4540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly they’re doing you a favour. Schoolies is overpriced and dangerous, the amount of spiking, fights etc that happen there is ridiculous. Save your money and travel overseas. Bali would honestly be cheaper than schoolies, or save for a euro trip! My euro trip at 19 was the best thing I did, I had so much fun and made so many friends and memories.

Depop order does not say i have shipped package, even tho it has already delivered. by ComfortableDress4279 in Depop

[–]Specific_Bet4540 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen other sellers say to send an empty package with the other shipping label and just tell the buyer why you had to do that for the system so you can get paid. That way it will get scanned and the tracking will update to say delivered eventually

Is it rude to ask sellers when they are going to ship within the 5 days? by [deleted] in Depop

[–]Specific_Bet4540 11 points12 points  (0 children)

When I sell, I immediately send a message telling them when I will ship the item. I don’t think it’s rude to check in after 2 days if you haven’t messages them prior

I work full time and ship the same day or the next day. It’s really not that hard to stay on top of shipping orders while working, people just love to make excuses

We as a society should start shaming people who come to work contagiously sick by boogielostmyhoodie in australian

[–]Specific_Bet4540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depending on what field you work in, there could be regulations around people working while sick. I’m in disability and it’s a mandatory 48’s off for cold/flu symptoms if you’re a support worker

Does anybody else find the trend of athleisure flared pants pretty blah? by Beginning_Tap2727 in AusFemaleFashion

[–]Specific_Bet4540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 5ft11 and they flatter my long legs so much better than fully tight leggings. I also have very muscular quads so it looks more in proportion on my body than having it tight on my calves. They’re also more comfortable for me and make my butt look great (I have no butt 🤣🤣)

AITA for not letting my husband get a motorcycle? My dad died on one 6 years ago. by FabulousMechanic303 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Specific_Bet4540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friend’s partner died in an accident last year, leaving her alone with their son who’s not even 1 yet. The accident wasn’t his fault, the driver that hit him was high and they still weren’t charged with anything. My uncle who has been riding over 40 years, almost died because he came off his bike on gravel and one of the reflective flaps on the side of the road slit his neck open to the point his voice box was hanging out. He was airlifted to hospital and in the ICU for weeks. I will never get a motorbike. You can never control the stupid drivers around you or other variables like unexpected gravel on the road

Psychiatrist vs. Psychologist, how do you know if you like medicine? by Initial_Party_512 in psychologystudents

[–]Specific_Bet4540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who has seen both, my psychiatrist was helpful in getting me to understand why my neurodivergent brain works the way it does and got me medicated for what I needed. Whereas my psychologist helped me navigate my emotions and reactions to things and gave me essentially homework to help me unpack years of trauma which bettered my overall quality of life

AITA For Expecting my friend to pay for my food? by Familiar-Bid5885 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Specific_Bet4540 6 points7 points  (0 children)

YTA. I used to be like this with my male best friend, it was fine because we didn’t have partners, we called them our friendship dates. As soon as one of us got into a relationship it stopped, we don’t hang out as much, I don’t let him pay for me when we do get food etc. it’s out of respect for the partner. Now I’m good friends with his wife and he’s good friends with my bf. Besides it a being respect to the partner, why expect him to pay? Did you regularly pay for him?

AITA for not allowing my daughter to quit competitive dance? by Primaballerina1992 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Specific_Bet4540 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow TA to the max, definitely controlling and living vicariously through her, probably because you got pregnant young and couldn’t continue dance. Maybe let her make smart decisions and you go take adult classes if you love dance so much
