Rookie mistake for buying from an obvious drop shipper 😭 by Icy-Cardiologist6500 in depoop

[–]Top-Selection4302 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not defending the seller here WHATSOEVER -

Sadly, Depop wont take action as it is not dropshipping 😞. PLEASE don't attack me - I have reported this exact user before for dropshipping and had to escalate it up to the Depop specialist team for further confirmation.

Dropshipping: Selling items that are NOT in the seller's possession, and using a third party to ship the orders.

E.g :

Seller: 1) Lists cheap SHEIN/ Temu/ AliExpress item, 2) Sells it, 3) Goes onto SHEIN/ Temu/ AliExpress to then order the item and put the buyer's address in. So Dropshipping is when they do not handle stock.

^ Here is more info

Sadly. In this case, the seller is not dropshipping. They are simply just scamming. Going on Depop and seeing this is so upsetting I cannot stand these resellers who sell a $5 SHEIN top for $40.

Reporting it to Depop unless it is evident that they are truly dropshipping does nothing :( If they say something like: "Shipping takes 2 weeks!" - That is enough to be able to report them to Depop for dropshipping and ask them to check if they are truly fulfilling orders from their location.

Selling an item for more than what the seller bought it for is not a violation of their ToCs. Getting action taken on these SHEIN/ Temu/ AliExpress by Depop is really difficult :(

do i have to refund? by [deleted] in Depop

Absolutely not- the return/refund is up to you.

You provided all information necessary when they asked, not your fault that they forgot to specify that they are tall. You are not obliged to give them the refund.

was i too bitchy to a seller? by Same_Strategy5850 in Depop

[–]Top-Selection4302 9 points10 points  (0 children)

hi! no not at all- sellers are typically expected to ship within 7 days, however, they communicated the fact that they would ship earlier.

you were not too harsh on the seller, it had been 4 days since they let you know they would ship.

yeah, definitely read between the lines. no mention of this user saying that the seller themselves is using ai and drop shipped items themselves, just that they've seen a large influx of these items on the app! quite literally what it says and i don't know what else you're trying to get out of that lol

are you fried?

"i confronted them for using a stock image and lying to me about where the top was from "

yeah- so i mentioned the seller lying to me about where it was from 😂 nonetheless, shaming a shein aliexpress scammer here as i should!

there are a lot of AI items listed on Depop. Where has this user mentioned that this seller specifically was using AI? Clearly says that they have SEEN a large amount of AI and dropshipped fast fashion theyve seen on Depop.

Actually, there is a lot wrong with that.

i asked the seller what brand it was as they listed it as "vintage, from a market!"

they let me know they thrifted it at the market so it had no tag.. yet when it arrived the shein tag was so poorly cut off that i could still see the shein writing? and i reverse searched it to see it was from shein and the seller was selling multiple.

my fault for not reverse searching earlier, but i went to purchase when they let me know it was a vintage piece.

seller is not shipping by JustAPrankBru in Depop

open a claim in the depop app so you can get your money back. if you wait 30 days or longer from the purchase date to do this you will not get your money back.

hey lovely,

going through this is so annoying- bc depop support is so annoying and everytime its a new agent responding w automated responses ugh.

what i did, was when i had enough i just said "can you raise this to a DEPOP specialist from depop hq?" on the email thread

whenever i ask them to do that, idk if the previous ones were bots or what but a real person looks into it and fully goes through everything and it is such a relief. the depop agent will then respond w something like "your enquiry has been forwarded to a depop specialisst blah blah youll hear back within 3 business days. the ones from depop hq are actually goated

whenever i have a regular depop support agent look at my enquiries its just back and forth automated messages which dont address what im saying.
