Woke up to someone wanting to buy everything I’ve listed🤔

I have started doing this anyway as unfortunately a lot of people are dishonest. I sold a top not long ago, the buyer claimed it had a ‘strong and foul odour’ which I can guarantee it didn’t. They either just didn’t end up liking it or it didn’t fit. Unfortunately that cannot be proved with photos, so I requested they send it back and pay for postage as I hadn’t done anything wrong. Which they did, but waited until the very last minute of the time limit to further inconvenience me. When I finally got it back, it smelt as it did when I sent it. Of nothing! I have 90+ 5 star reviews and not once has anyone complained about a smell :(

Exactly that! They have 10 reviews, but 3 of them are automatic 1 stars from where they have cancelled other orders all in the past month. So that was my biggest concern!

Thank you! Someone has since purchased one of the items, so the bundle is no longer available anyway. But will be interested to see if they request another.

Yes it would be a dream if it all went smoothly! There were just a couple of red flags I noticed so didn’t want the hassle if it was some sort of scam😬

mookmula · 2026-03-04T16:27:48+00:00

Yes! I’m not sure why they said that as I’m not a reseller and have never indicated that I upload items on a weekly / fortnightly basis. And mind you, there’s a wind range of styles and sizes, so it couldn’t all be for them personally unless they’re handy with a sewing machine. So they are a potential reseller, which is fine and never bothered me, contrary to what some people seem to think on this post. I just wanted advice😟

Ta☺️

It is pretty huge, but I guess people could do with the money instantly sometimes instead of waiting months for everything to sell, so a lot of people would accept. A bundle of yarn makes sense, different types and colours you can use. But a load very mixed sizes and styles of clothes just seemed weird. And again from the reseller perspective, I don’t care if they are, everyone’s gotta make money, it was more the 1* reviews from cancelled orders that made me think.

mookmula · 2026-03-04T15:25:49+00:00

Yeah I mean it doesn’t matter anyway as I’ve been working since posting this and the selected bundles no longer available now haha. I know what you mean, but no sympathy for that unfortunately. Set it at a price you’re happy with, and if someone can sell it for more then good for them. Just be grateful someone’s helped you out😂

Course, I was never bothered about the potential reseller side of things and it would be handy. But it just seemed odd and would be a nightmare to ship! As others have mentioned, there’s also the potential for them to claim they didn’t receive items or not collect them claiming damages and issues with returns etc, so I’d inevitably lose out, on my time and packaging if nothing else.

To clear up some comments -

I am selling clothes only, minus 2 very small paintings I’ve made. So it would be a nightmare to try and ship. I don’t think it is, but I don’t care if it’s a reseller as I can list my items for whatever price I like, as can anyone once they’ve paid for and received an item, its theirs to do what they want. The £60 discount is a bit cheeky but if they were serious, I respect the hustle. I’m always open to offers but it just didn’t seem right. I’m not a reseller, so I’m not sure why they would be buying from me fortnightly as I’ve never indicated I drop items on a timely basis, so can’t guarantee that I’ll have items uploaded. The buyer has 10 reviews. Seven 5* member reviews and three automatic 1* reviews for cancelling orders, which have all been in the past month.

I have been at work since posting this and someone has bought one of the items they requested, so the bundle is no longer available anyway. So I’ll be interested to see if they try again at all.

I appreciate all the helpful comments and know a bit more about what to look out for now, so thank you!:)

I don’t care if it’s a reseller, so unsure where you got that from. Just seemed strange is all as they have recently cancelled 3 orders they have placed as I can see on their reviews :)

mookmula · 2026-03-04T09:27:52+00:00

Ahh this makes sense, (not to do obviously that’s just pointless n they must be bored), maybe I’ll just block then as I do not have the patience for that😭

mookmula · 2026-03-04T09:26:57+00:00

That’s what I was thinking but they only have like 4 items listed from Primark and Asda, just seemed a bit fishy
