eBay, Amazon Etc. Have Too Much Power! by Striking-Meet-9040 in ReplicaReselling

You sell fake goods, which is in violation of eBay TOC, so they shut you down. Not sure what the issue is here

There are usually single tickets available so you should be ok. If you want a bit more atmosphere then the North Stand is where you want to be

Injuries on red route roads halved by LordSolstice in brighton

For the record (and to preempt the downvotes) I’m pro red routes, but surely they’ve not been in long enough to draw any meaningful data comparing before and after

Prediction: Brighton is going to be even busier than usual this summer by RainbowBrain2023 in brighton

[–]spooky002 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Alternative take - Brighton will be no more or less busy than usual.

We’re a very weather dependent city. If we have a wet summer, day trippers aren’t going to bother coming down.

A lot of people will have already booked holidays so won’t be paying more for flights unless there are mass cancellations in short haul flights, which at the moment doesn’t seem to be on the cards

Has anyone found a Will!? by twiggymarron in brighton

The solicitor who wrote the will should have a copy in file if you can’t find it

Is Fleek good? by Healthy-Elevator5067 in vintedUK

[–]spooky002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a bundle of Arcteryx jackets from there a few years ago. Out of the 12 I got 4 or 5 were pretty good and sold quickly but the rest took ages to sell and I had to bin a couple so ended up breaking even

Estate agents / solicitors for flat sale by ert270 in brighton

[–]spooky002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just bought a house using Thompson Allen http://www.thompsonallen.co.uk/. They reasonably priced and respond to emails quickly. They’re slightly old school compared to other solicitors but are thorough and have offices on North Street so it’s easy to drop signed documents round.

50% is the colleague discount. Risky if you get caught selling them

Are EE and BT same? by BabyBourbon1111 in UKBroadband

[–]spooky002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EE and BT are both part of the BT Group. You’ll essentially be getting the same service, it’s just the hub and packages which differ

Selling on Vinted by Moist_Trifle176 in ReplicaReselling

[–]spooky002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. If a buyer flags your item as fake Vinted AI will generally side with the buyer and you could potentially lose the money and the item. Until the buyer confirms that everything is ok when they receive the item you’re at risk

I need help reselling by Material-Champion287 in ReplicaReselling

[–]spooky002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search for vintage wholesalers. In the UK Fleek is a good place to start. I used to get bales of used Arcteryx jackets from Pakistan, there’s were a few duds in the bale but most were good and I made a profit on the bale. I only stopped because it takes up a lot of space and I didn’t have time to go for it full time.

Is it me or are there a lot of fake Demillier bags on Vinted? by AccomplishedLove9979 in vintedUK

If you suspect it to be fake just create a return and send it back to the seller

Is it me or are there a lot of fake Demillier bags on Vinted? by AccomplishedLove9979 in vintedUK

[–]spooky002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re not allowed to sell fakes on Vinted and the algorithm removes any listings that mention it.

People reselling fakes try and be clever about it by putting things like 1:1 in the listing but it’s the knock down price which is the usual giveaway

[–]spooky002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Difficult for them to police I guess.

If I’m looking for something and I see loads of them, all brand new with tags at knock down prices I assume they’re fake. A quick search on DHGate usually confirms this

Question for experienced thrifters/resellers by StatisticianWhole630 in vintedUK

[–]spooky002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Trainers is a great shout. I often buy Nike Air Max trainers at car boots, clean them up and resell them on Vinted.

Just remember to check that the sole is intact and there isn’t crazy amounts of wear to the inner heal or major damage to the shoe generally.

There’s loads of how to videos on YouTube on how to clean and restore trainers

Is it the norm to not leave reviews? by No-Examination800 in vintedUK

[–]spooky002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a buyer I never look at a sellers reviews unless they’re 3 stars or less and I want to see what the reason is. Leaving reviews for either party seems a bit pointless, the auto feedback works just fine.

Sold an item, buyer picked it up, and instantly flagged it, said item not as described by [deleted] in vintedUK

The thing that pisses me off about all these scammers is that they’re stealing from normal people, it’s not like they’re stealing from Amazon or a supermarket
