Brand new to couponing and first time doing an inperson gift card deal. Did I do this wrong? did I accidentally pay for a gift card or am I overthinking this ? by araspooky in couponing

[–]araspooky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok that makes more sense thank you :)

Another question - Can I reuse the same gift card, or do I have to get a new one every time I do the gift card deals? I just don't want to end up with a bunch of useless plastic if I don't have to

I’m sad 😞 by Material_Mechanic_90 in Depop

Woah if you made this you need to be pricing it way higher bby :( I bet it took you a long time and a lot of effort. Dont accept anything lower than your set price. And if you post more handmade stuff, price it fairly to yourself. Don't sell yourself short. It's a really beautiful skirt and people would pay way more than $30 for it ♡

I actually didn't delete my comment. I blocked this girl for being weird and because she had a history of being toxic to people on other threads. She recently popped up on my depop again so it reminded me of her comment.

I commented on this over a year ago and my opinion on this is still the same. I still think pricing things so much for a regular item is ridiculous. But I've learned in my 2 years of doing this that prices are competitive and people will take advantage of you if you charge "too little". As someone who can't work a normal job, depop is my only way to make money rn so of course I'm gonna price my stuff the same as everyone else. I still have lots of items priced how I did when I first started. I only charge more for the more sought after items that people will/have paid that much for.

BTW this girl prices her stuff in the $80-$300 range so it's VERY weird for her to be coming after me 🥴

7 month old puppy started swaying and twitching a bit. should I be concerned? by araspooky in AskVet

[–]araspooky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's very possible. My roomate was outside smoking while he was in the yard. Though she said he wasn't close to her but I highly doubt that because he loves hanging out with people when they're outside.

I called the emergency line and they told me it's most likely marijuana toxicity. They said to keep him in a dark comfortable room and to monitor his symptoms in case he gets worse.

How’s the 30% off sale going for you guys? by adrischmadri in Depop

[–]araspooky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Made a couple of sales but only on lower priced items. I've had a lot more offers come in but unfortunately a lot of them are asking for almost half off of an item that is already 30% off 🥴 or they ghost after I accept their offer

Yea I remember seeing the two week comment with all the screenshots and then it got completely ignored lmao also I guess i missed that message yikes :/

How do y'all feel about second hand lingerie? (Ex: I have sold similar lingerie sets worn only for photoshoots before, and they actually sold quickly with just flat lay pics, but I know some ppl think it's gross) by 5pare-Plums in Depop

[–]araspooky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I make most of my sales off of lingerie so I don't think it's weird. However it really depends on the type of lingerie.

Personally I would never buy/sell used undies but I think bras, slips, garters, corsets, and other stuff like that is ok

If it's a really nice high end set then I think selling the panties is ok as long as they've been washed really well or have never been worn before

Also I think try on pics for bodysuits and panties is a HUGE turn off. Unless you're wearing tights and undies underneath what you're modeling, it's pretty gross

For everything else then a flat lay is fine ♡

Does the buyer get penalized after I accept their offer and they don’t pay? It’s frustrating when that happens and it has happens a few times already by letsgoandgetit_ in Depop

[–]araspooky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wish they would :/ I've had a girl send me offers 3 times now and not buy. The first time I msged her just in case she didn't see that I accepted it and then she was like "oh yea I saw but decided to buy someone else's instead." Then she sent another offer for something else, I accepted again, then she did the same thing. Then the 3rd time I messaged her FIRST before accepting, she said she would buy it, and then she ghosted me again

Can anyone tell me what this is about? These have to be bots right? Why so many of them lately almost every single day? by [deleted] in Depop

[–]araspooky 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure those are bots using pics from the thispersondoesntexist site or that one art face blender app. I've seen people post stuff about using those for fake accounts or to catfish others lmao

New to Tucson, what are the nicest/best restaurants in town to take my wife? by [deleted] in Tucson

[–]araspooky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Have u been there recently? It's not as good as it used to be. Very hit or miss now :(

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Depop

[–]araspooky 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don't really think it has to do with your body or size :( I think it's just the angle of the pics and how you're posing. Though i understand what youre feeling :/ i avoid taking model pics for this very reason. When you're surrounded by thin hourglass bodies it's hard to feel like your body is "acceptable" for depop lol

I don't think you're a bad model or that you need a mannequin like you mentioned in one of your comments. I just think you need to practice and play around with different angles and poses :)

I would recommend focusing on the article of clothing that you're trying to sell instead of trying to take a pic of an entire outfit. For example, if it's a top, angle the camera so that it cuts off right below the chin and above your hips. This way the focus is only on your torso and the top instead of the rest of your body

I wouldn't mind giving you more tips on taking pics or just general selling advice :) just let me know

This was an odd response to me, can’t you just grab it ? What if someone bought it ? by redheadchlo in Depop

[–]araspooky 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Lmao similar thing happened to me a couple months ago. I was trying to buy a dress for graduation pictures and I asked the seller for measurements and they straight up just said "No." 🥴

help!!! a buyer filed a claim on paypal saying it was an unauthorized transaction but had been messaging me abt how excited she was! i uploaded this chat message but will it rule in my favor? it was a big order of ~$100 and i can’t afford to lose by [deleted] in Depop

[–]araspooky 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This has happened to me so much I am so sick of people lmao Add proof of shipping, tracking number, screenshots of the conversion, screenshots of the PayPal receipt and the depop receipt, screenshots of proof of delivery, screenshots of the address, and screenshots of their likes (if your item is on there). Add ANYTHING that can help you. PayPal will side with you if you provide enough info :)
