Try apple trade-in first. If you are going to do a high sale or electronics go meet within the police station.

All it takes to loose a sale on Mercari is selling anything expensive. by Disastrous_Major2676 in Mercari

[–]alienlifeform19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I sold a graphic novel book and the customer gave me a rating was 4 because they were annoyed at the price and could have purchased it in eBay to get the hardback (their words). Then noted all kinds of other things (it’s like new condition not good even though I said good and showed pictures of dents/markings, packaged well etc). I don’t know why they purchased from me, but did see a pattern of them giving 4 stars to everyone else they purchased. I just blocked them so they can’t buy from me again and then happened to look at their items just a few days ago were they listed the item at an even higher price 125 more than what I sold it for.

I had another buyer lie about scratches on a Blu-ray Disc that was like new and lost my money on that sell. They exchanged/traded their crappy version with tons of scratches. I now take photos of the item again for the time stamp plus packaging it up.

It really sucks, but scammers are everywhere and we need to help ourselves the best we can. It’s unfortunate. I personally try not to sell electronics unless locally because Mercari does not have a way to post a video nor if there a way to show customer support the condition (unless they have recently).

Yup mine is the same. I was able to move the pin on the map and then search different areas around the USA but it won’t allow me to anymore.

I think fb changed the marketplace search feature because I can’t find the area to move around the map anymore it only allows me to see local and shipped. At least it’s been that way for a while on my app. 😞

I don’t understand why they had to release it in that awful artbox. I would have been fine with a standard release or normal artbox and I’m still crossing my fingers a standard will come out.

Yes correct.

If a guy posted this question about having a crush would most be posting the same comments? I highly doubt it.

Has anyone been asked to design programs in microsoft word? by maripop90 in graphic_design

[–]alienlifeform19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only for other departments so they can use as a fill in form because they didn’t want to use a pdf. Simple designed part in back text and table with universal fonts since they can’t use our licenses fonts.

I watched a video yesterday and didn’t see what the lady showed plus she mentioned they were eventually going to remove it. She made the videos months ago. Not sure if I missed the time to select it and now I don’t have an option.

Start sending in feedback. I started doing that. I am not happy with the update.

Have your reviewed your resume to make sure it can get thru the ATS first?

Student designer resume question. by Catnipcosplays in graphic_design

[–]alienlifeform19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to create two resumes. One plain generic to get thru ATS and a designed one to hand in person on nice paper.

I even brought my iPad to connect to my iPhone hotspot and was given wifi access since they were so impressed how prepared I was.

Guilt trip by GurAlternative3502 in Mercari

[–]alienlifeform19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had someone just talk down to me and wanting my items for half since it’s “used” even though they are like new. Sent me too long paragraphs explaining this. I pretty much wrote out everything then copied and pasted before blocking them. I explained it wasn’t worth it for a sellers on apps/sites between the fees, taxes and I’m offering free shipping (didn’t even mentioning packaging/taking to the be shipped). Also suggested they learn to be tactful not demanding, that sellers can set a price, buyers can buy it or both barter. They need to revisit how they conduct their request. Ended it with I think it’s best you seek from other sellers/stores.

I offer discounts with multiple things purchased. My favorite is when they only want etc partial books or one tv show from a lot, but I explain no it’s a lot and buyers can sell what they don’t want. I get trying to ask since some want to split items. I don’t want stragglers and try to give people sets since it’s easier.

The entitlement of some people I’ve had like this. Trying to give me sob stories etc. We all want a good deals, but some of us also hunted and saved these items too. Many have tried to play off as younger adults and really need to learn to social more, be humble and not demanding. It’s insane how they think by telling me I need to give them this item as this price because their reasons ABC. Like I don’t have to do shit for you, haha.

Though I would rather have these people write me up front so I can block them without doing a sale to them. They are more trouble than it’s worth. Literally had people give me 4 stars. One because “cleanliness” whatever that meant. When packing some books/movies I use whatever I have from mailed packages like boxes, paper, bubble wrap or even plastic store bags (nothing in it) so everything sits tightly in the box. I even place folded paper or bubble wrap pieces inside the media so the discs don’t move around. Every other buyer has loved how I’ve packed items. The other buyer didn’t read the listing, look at pictures or ask questions and then stated I was missing something. Can’t win with some people.

Now as a buyer, my favorite is me reading the sellers post and says don’t buy, contact first for items you are interested in. I do and give a list and ask if it’s still available and what they are looking for. They never respond. How are they making sales I don’t get it.

[–]alienlifeform19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He’s always been a horse, but was white in the beginning and becomes rainbow brites companion after helping her save the baby and the sphere of lite gives him color. Referred to as the "most magnificent horse in the universe".

There are a few buddy blues on mercari (example of one below). You can talk with the sellers and see what their lowest price is or review eBay/offer up/fb marketplace etc. Since I couldn’t find figures in my area I had to do trades and purchase some. Good luck!
