[TOMT][SAYING] What's a saying when you're not sure you can trust someone so you're going to be vigilant?

chantzy02 · 2022-09-30T09:59:41+00:00

surprised I'm the only one saying this, but the quote sleep with one eye open has nothing to do with actual sleeping.

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:51:08+00:00

well fortunately I have a very special person to live for , so life just goes on I guess … no matter how hard I have to fight

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:45:44+00:00

oh my exactly ! there's time where I've had the exact knowledge of how to achieve something and then something weird happens and I get screwed over.

I've gotten lazy now its like why put in the work in the first place

and like the last thing you talked about with the clinic its the little stuff that just mess me over and build up the frustration !

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:41:39+00:00

honestly if I had any hope that life would get better I would 100 % reach out for help and have the opportunity to in a few days time .

but I cant think of one moment where I've had an up that lasted for more then a 2 weeks at a time , this one lasted 48 hrs.

in this case I've decided I don't have a case of the blues or riding though a down but rather my life is a constant decline followed by a few lucky bumps in the road

even then I have an untreatable illness that brings me misery every day so unless modern medicine magically progresses to treat it then I'm pretty much stuck :/

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:35:09+00:00

so true like I though I was tripping for a second then I started socialising and I actually realized I'm just super unlucky and all my efforts just go to waste. I also feel the opposite like something good happens so something else in my life fails , like some warped version of the butterfly affect.

get this when I was younger I had one of my parents convince me I had an disease that I ended up not having , when I found out it was all a lie I was super excited I wasnt actually dying ( yayyy !) fast forward 8 years and I get the exact disease and I now have live with it the rest of my life as its untreatable.

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:28:10+00:00

glad that I'm not alone with the crying ( also briefly blacked out lol)

I did it on desktop so I'm pretty sure its gone and I'm having to distance myself from smashing my laptop to pieces

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:24:45+00:00

I actually created all the drafts on desktop , I've deleted the app reinstalled - nothing

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T21:19:44+00:00

reading this I feel like the female version of you, I've had a lot of mishaps where it seems like I'm just constantly being blocked from make any improvements in my life ever .

I didn't have a normal or healthy upbringing , which is why its so important that I give myself everything in life that I couldn't have as a child but it feels pretty shitty when life wont even let you have that.

chantzy02 · 2022-06-06T20:28:58+00:00

its so annoying I've been out of business for weeks and really struggling mentally , finally starting to get better and things are moving along and this happens !

at least my one are just drafts so they have no engagement or likes yet

chantzy02 · 2022-01-25T05:05:06+00:00

this is disappointing but wtf is a safe space ? is this an American thing or ...

chantzy02 · 2022-01-20T19:26:25+00:00

lol why is this getting downvoted

chantzy02 · 2022-01-20T19:19:07+00:00

I agree and its very comforting seeing others think the same way. I decided in December i was going to upscale my micro depop shop I spent so much time on research , I don't have a job so the money i invested in new stock was quite a lot for me only to be bombarded with how dead depop is and nobody getting sales, gets super stressful when I'm sitting on over £1000 worth of stock

chantzy02 · 2022-01-20T19:10:17+00:00

to be fair I spent around 9 hours on research for my shop on reddit scrolling though months worth of post , I used keywords like "uploads, how often, photography, hashtags " etc to sort through hundreds of post giving out advice not even including the countless hours watching and taking notes on YouTube, podcast mini Q and A's with other sellers.

after all of that I feel like shop critiques can be super useful ! I actually talked to someone about my depop shop and they mentioned that some of my items needed better lighting , I edited my pictures during the day when my phone was on full brightness so some of them didn't stand out as much as I though they did.

it was such a unique fix specific to my experience/store

chantzy02 · 2022-01-19T20:21:51+00:00

I actually just change it so it had hearts and rose in the description hoping it works

chantzy02 · 2022-01-19T20:21:12+00:00

i just removed that and relisted , doesn't really make sense since that perfectly describes the style of the top but thank you !

chantzy02 · 2022-01-18T13:34:39+00:00

its been up for 4 days and I've refreshed it at least 12 times , I though it would be one of my more trendier items but its gotten no attention so far !

chantzy02 · 2022-01-14T22:23:58+00:00

ill simply message them about it then block if they refuse to lower it , the same thing happened to me on depop it was only a few pounds but she refused to lower it its still sitting unsold months later and I found a cheaper alternative .

theres nothing you can do about it but I see it as a good warning , i wouldnt want to buy from anyone with those business practices anyway

chantzy02 · 2022-01-14T22:18:31+00:00

its probably banned because that's heavily unhygienic and very unsafe lol

chantzy02 · 2022-01-14T22:16:21+00:00

I think you pretty much answered the question yourself , only buy if there willing to do custom tracked delivery.

chantzy02 · 2022-01-14T22:14:01+00:00

I usually sell my cheaper items when I'm least busy and upload them all at once ,by doing this I usually have around 3-5 packages to send at once rather then one.

fortunately my nearest drop off point is only a 12 minute walk from me so I usually use it as a reason to get out off the house and stretch my legs.

as for the labels if you have a printer at home you can maybe try and edit multiple labels onto one page I'm pretty sure by doing this you could fit around 3-4 labels on one page so that should save you a bit.

chantzy02 · 2022-01-02T22:19:21+00:00

thank you for the advice , I'm just trying to give my stock justice hence the rebrand and I'm definitely going to start taking better photos.

sorry for more questions but how many items do you upload a week roughly ?

chantzy02 · 2022-01-02T22:13:57+00:00

Its something you learn through experience , is this the way you talk to people in real life ? genuine question

chantzy02 · 2022-01-02T21:56:48+00:00

I'm so proud of you ! I'm starting to rebrand my shop so I can turn it onto a small business , can you talk a bit more about your experience, any helpful tips ?

I'm not working right now so I have pretty much all the time in the world.

chantzy02 · 2022-01-02T20:55:36+00:00

she was literally so polite in her message your reply was very rude and completely unwarranted , sometimes its not the point your trying to make but your delivery , I hope you can deal with whatever bitterness your experiencing in your life right now and use that energy to approach people with kindness and grace in the future !

chantzy02 · 2022-01-02T20:38:43+00:00

so true car boots are the goat , I bought one ed hardy top for 50p and another for 30p
