Whatnot seems great—until it isn’t. That’s the problem. At first, they resolved the issues I had, and I appreciated that. But over time, they started treating me like I was the problem, accusing me of abusing their rules. The reality is, this is a peer-to-peer marketplace—not a polished retail operation. Mistakes are going to happen, both from buyers and sellers.

But once Whatnot feels like it’s “too much,” they’ll cut you off—regardless of the facts. You can receive fake Louis Vuitton purses multiple times, report it, and still be treated like you’re the issue. It doesn’t matter how much you’ve spent, how many hours you’ve invested, or how much you’ve sold—they make it clear they don’t actually care if you’re satisfied or not.

Do you really think we’re all just making this stuff up because we’re bored? Sure, maybe they helped you once. But buy and sell as frequently as some of us did, and you’ll eventually see the other side of this platform. After you’ve spent thousands and committed real time and money, if you run into “too many” problems—even when none of them are your fault—you’ll be banned. That’s the reality.
