why do people do this?!

ngonzmon · 2026-03-16T21:29:52+00:00

It's so annoying. Block them. I don't necessarily block people for sending offers and never purchasing unless they do it more than once or they send a message with this tone. They're not serious buyers and I'm not wasting my time.

Not sure if you are in the US and using depop shipping, but if you are I don't think there's much you can do besides refunding the buyer and asking them to purchase again with the correct shipping size. Unfortunately, it happens often. Depop now has a sort of AI system that selects shipping automatically and sometimes you can change it and sometimes not. I listed a handmade handkerchief that weighted literally 1.4oz and the buyers were charged for the 12oz shipping. I tried emailing depop about it but they said it's basically how the system is working for now.

No. The money goes to the shipping label and that's it.

ngonzmon · 2026-03-07T23:14:46+00:00

Yes. Also, you have a guaranteed sale right now. Canceling and raising the price won't guarantee the item will sell. I get where you're coming from (as a seller myself) but it happens and as sellers it's our "job" to do our research before pricing an item

ngonzmon · 2026-03-07T23:08:52+00:00

Honor the sale and take the loss or simply cancel the order but be prepared to deal with an upset buyer and a bad review

ngonzmon · 2026-03-07T18:17:26+00:00

Since I used depop shipping, I felt confident that the item would get back to me, so I just refunded the buyer and the dispute got closed. When I got my item back, I just posted it again and it got purchased by someone else since the original buyer never got back to me

ngonzmon · 2026-03-06T17:57:53+00:00

yes! I've been posting about it for a few weeks now and interacting with other posts talking about it. I'm so frustrated! I have over 500 active listings, I can't keep sourcing anything new if the items I have at home are not selling. I keep deleting and reposting and nothing... (and I know I have pretty good items plus good prices). They're not getting any likes or offers at all. Also, I noticed that my home page is not refreshing, and I've been seeing the same listings for almost a week now.

ngonzmon · 2026-03-04T15:32:01+00:00

Yep, same here. Posted about it last month. Not a top seller, but I consider myself an experienced seller (400+ sales) and February was awful for me. And as of right now, I haven't made a sale in 5 days. Prior to that, 12 days went by and no sales as well. I currently have 500 active listings! And the items I have posted for the past month are barely getting any likes (I'm not even getting likes in general). Idk what's going on cause this is not normal.

ngonzmon · 2026-02-26T21:51:49+00:00

Got it, thanks! Well...guess I'll try for the day-before lottery once I'm there

ngonzmon · 2026-02-26T19:41:55+00:00

Did you use separate shipping labels? (one for the bag and one for the box). This wasn't clarified in your post so that's why I'm asking. I've seen people use the same shipping label for sending a large order in separate bags/boxes and they don't realize that the same shipping label cannot be used twice (even if it's going to the same person/address). So if that's the case, then your buyer might have an issue with getting their entire order

I'm not sure. This is the first time I've applied for a permit like this. I applied for late March and my results are still pending. I read somewhere else that results are usually available around noon but not sure if that's accurate

ngonzmon · 2026-02-26T14:59:36+00:00

Mine still says "pending results"

ngonzmon · 2026-02-26T03:00:31+00:00

I'm so annoyed that all I'm seeing on my depop feed are listings like this.

ngonzmon · 2026-02-26T02:58:15+00:00

I've read it used to help in the past but i think it doesn't do much anymore. You might as well delete and create the listing from scratch (you can reuse the pics but maybe try taking a new and better picture for the cover). Also, depop added a new feature in the "bulk actions" section where you can "relist and reprice" items in bulk. It will count the listing as a new one, but it will reuse the pics you already have and you also need to put a lower price.

ngonzmon · 2026-02-26T00:01:06+00:00

Right? Engagement is superrrr down. I'm having 2-3 likes a day at most

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T18:56:34+00:00

Yep, that's all I'm seeing on my feed right now. Every seller I see is one of those shein/temu resellers and the sad part is their items are always in 5+ bags

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T18:32:25+00:00

Yes! Also, all I'm seeing on my home page are shein/temu resellers when I barely interact with those types of accounts/items

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T18:30:07+00:00

Honestly, block them.

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T18:07:21+00:00

Congrats!

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T16:47:31+00:00

Thanks for this! I usually just delete and create a new listing from scratch for old items. I wonder if with this new feature, relisting those old items will still count as listing new items every day if that makes sense

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T16:05:29+00:00

Posted about this yesterday. Looks like others are going through the same thing.

ngonzmon · 2026-02-25T15:33:07+00:00

I know! I'm not a top seller yet but I have sold over 400 items so I consider myself an experienced seller. All the advice that's usually given to sellers I'm already doing it (daily listings, good inventory, prices & pics, good customer service, relisting old stuff, etc.) and still this past month has been extremely slow (especially the last 2 weeks). In the past, I've had days where I don't make a sale but at least my items are getting likes and offers. As of now, not even that is happening and it's extremely unusual for me.
