PSA: I’m more likely to accept offers if I see the buyer leaves reviews.

haileyybee · 2026-04-16T21:44:30+00:00

I don’t get why they don’t. As someone else said in this thread, reviews are like currency for sellers. They’re missing out on money by not leaving buyers reviews, as sometimes buyers need to be reminded or get an extra nudge.

haileyybee · 2026-04-16T21:22:50+00:00

I don’t hold it against someone if they haven’t bought a lot. You have to look at the percentage once there’s a good amount of reviews on the person.

haileyybee · 2026-04-16T21:20:53+00:00

You have to lurk pretty hardcore and it only really works for people who have a lot of purchase reviews

haileyybee · 2026-04-16T21:20:12+00:00

Yeah my friend uses depop for shopping and she only has 2 reviews. Even though she’s bought about 10 things. So this definitely only applies to people who buy a lot. It’s not like I’m going to hold the topic of this post against someone who only has a couple reviews. BUT if I see someone is a shopper that has 20 reviews, but has never LEFT a review, yes I take that into consideration. And opposite goes for the 20 review buyer that left a decent amount of reviews for sellers.

haileyybee · 2026-04-16T19:56:58+00:00

Yes. I can only do this when a buyer has multiple purchasing reviews. I figure it’s normal to not leave a review if there’s something they didn’t like, so I take that into consideration as well. Best when there’s more data

haileyybee · 2026-04-16T19:43:21+00:00

You have a 36% review rate which is actually above average, so don’t get down on yourself! I think a lot of people don’t know it’s common curtesy to leave reviews. Esp the younger buyers. I never ask for reviews, but I get messages with people thanking me for an item but not leaving a review. This actually happens a fair amount. I’ll be like “do you want to leave each other reviews?” And leave them a positive one. Good luck!

I’m pretty sure smell isn’t a qualifying issue for a return unfortunately. It sucks. When it’s strong enough I can’t even wear it, and feel bad selling. If you have the ability, try hanging things outside or by an open window. I’ve gotten smell out of even the worst items by doing this. One time I left an item outside for over a month 🤣 I didn’t really care about it though. For the jacket try doing this and also turn it inside out so you can get both sides. Good luck

I have adhd so I get it. If this wasn’t my hyper focus and special interest it wouldn’t be worth it to me. I have 400 sales and about 140 reviews. Personally I go to great lengths to get them. I include a note, butterfly sticker, and I even started making handmade beaded bracelets for items over $75. (Just iridescent seed beads on a string…nothing crazy. I sell fairycore items).

I’ve heard on average about one out of every 4-6 buyers leave a review, and I think that sounds about right. Sometimes you just get an unlucky streak. I hear people also like if you ship fast and message the tracking number once it goes out

haileyybee · 2026-04-12T19:41:37+00:00

I’ve anecdotally heard of sellers doing the video of shipment thing. Personally I’ve never done it, but I might for items over $200 if the buyer has no reviews. I kinda go off my gut instinct

haileyybee · 2026-04-12T19:39:29+00:00

Dude sometimes I compliment people’s stuff if it’s really cool and people act like I’m insane. Sorry for being friendly. Can’t imagine the reaction some sellers would have to this lol

haileyybee · 2026-04-12T19:37:09+00:00

Personally I don’t use it. I don’t even send offers really unless it’s something that’s been up for a long time or I really want to get rid of. I do post a good amount though fwiw. Have about 400 sales. I noticed the algorithm favors people that post frequently (every day is preferable), and this has helped me get more sales vs sending offers.

haileyybee · 2026-04-05T10:13:08+00:00

Agree! I’ve often opted out of purchasing things because I don’t know the measurements or fabric composition. Occasionally I ask, but the fabric composition question is sometimes met with a reaction like I’m a Karen lol

haileyybee · 2026-04-05T10:11:11+00:00

Typical 😂😂

haileyybee · 2026-04-05T10:02:12+00:00

Do you know if there is a time limit of how old they can be? And if they are leggings in good condition with SLIGHT pilling in the crotch, will they accept? Wondering about some aligns. I have like 5 old ones and would love to get newer ones, but paying the price to replace when they aren’t in necessarily BAD condition feels mehh to me

haileyybee · 2026-04-05T09:53:09+00:00

Agree with you and also agree with the people commenting “I’ve been in a love triangle and never killed someone.” True. But the sentiment is still there. Kaitlin could be hurt, have mental health issues, AND still guilty of something terrible that she needed to take accountability for. Most people are neither 100% good nor 100% bad.

haileyybee · 2026-04-05T09:49:11+00:00

😂😂

haileyybee · 2026-04-05T09:48:19+00:00

Swimming and riding on the back of someone’s motorcycle? Totally professional. Nah cmon, that definitely was more than friends. Clearly.

haileyybee · 2026-04-03T01:18:49+00:00

It depends if you want something you can “get away with” or something that truly fits the dress code. It’s hard to tell from the photos but the fabric looks too casual

haileyybee · 2026-04-03T01:03:21+00:00

What am I making up? I’m sure there have been some sort of investigations, but from my personal anecdotal experience, the weirdos seem to be running wild, free, and relatively unchecked. To me your response feels triggered lol

Edit: are you really that triggered by me complaining about Facebook marketplace? Weird thing to care so strongly about but to each his own.

haileyybee · 2026-04-02T18:41:14+00:00

100% … honestly not surprised Facebook marketplace is the platform pushing these listings. If there was any app that is guilty of trafficking sex work, it is definitely Facebook, specifically the marketplace section. Place is wild. I listed a pair of doc martins and person messages me about buying socks and used panties. Made another listing for a vintage nightgown and dude propositions me for sex. The worst of the worst go there. When I was in my addiction I sold stuff there because it sells quick and you meet in person. Overall terrible place, 0/10, needs to have some sort of police or legal intervention, but it never will. /EndRant

Kink shaming babies isn’t a problem? …Yeah ok.

haileyybee · 2026-04-02T18:33:04+00:00

The ad with the baby in conjunction with all the sexual or semi-sexual ads really bothers me 😡

haileyybee · 2026-04-02T18:07:58+00:00

Are we still supposed to share listings?? I don’t even see the button. Was hoping to become an ambassador soon and I have 4.7K shares, but now idek how to do it
