    I'm a newbie to selling online. I figured I would start with mercari since their fees are so low and I'm just trying to sell items I no longer need. So far so good. I've had sales and I've purchased some pretty cute things without any problems.

      That’s awesome!! It is a very good platform to start with 😊

    I do all free shipping. I’ve been selling for two years and haven’t had any problems. I do agree that people want something for nothing but you don’t have to accept offers!

    All these! 🤣 I used to sell on mercari but I've never enjoyed how it looks. I do occasionally buy from mercari because I like that you can save searches and get notifications when items are added. Poshmark needs that feature

    • @ChristinaCharalyn
      @ChristinaCharalyn  3 года назад +2

      Yes! That is such a great feature that they have going for them! Poshmark needs to take notes 📝

    Hilarious....10 mins of CONS and 3 minutes of PRO's!! Yep, agree with you on many points...Mercari is the Yard Sale of all the platforms I have come to find out. Nothing over $30 basically. And their condition buttons as well as their brands interface and selections need a huge update!! Carry On!

    I love MERCARI!!!! I sell on that platform and only on that platform and have no issues!!!! I HATE POSHMARK they take too much out of your sales!

    • @ChristinaCharalyn
      @ChristinaCharalyn  3 года назад +2

      That’s awesome! Even though Poshmark is my main selling platform, I’m honestly not a huge fan of them either 😂 I just like how easy the shipping is over there and that’s the only thing keeping me on their platform for the most part lol

  • @harryskittyz

    So interesting! I absolutely LOVE mercari and hate Poshmark. Poshmark is just so saturated and I wish they would make the website easier to use 😂

    I love to sell on Mercari. They do ask the seller before canceling an item if the buyer wants to cancel. If the buyer wants to return an item, and you accept the return, Mercari absorbs the shipping cost. I refunded 3 sales in December because the item was lost in the USPS system, and Mercari added the amount of these sales to my account, so, I love to sell on Mercari :)

    I'll share a buyers perspective. With the pandemic I had to find a new ways to source items due to I have a s*** immune system and I'm high risk for covid-19 complications. So I began to search daily for items on mecari that I could flip and still make a profit on eBay. I've been able to find lots, make bundles and discover items where the seller is unaware of what they have. (If that makes any sense). I also do some selling as I figured out which items sell for more money on mecari than they would on on eBay. I find very little value in bumping reducing the price of my items so I rarely do that.

    • @dorothychambers74
      @dorothychambers74 3 года назад

      Also I sell items on mecari that have flooded the market on eBay. Trust me I agree with all those negatives as well and most importantly they return policy is just crap!!

    • @ChristinaCharalyn
      @ChristinaCharalyn  3 года назад +1

      Thank you so much for sharing your perspective! It is very important to look at platforms from all sides and this was very refreshing! We all have to grow with the times and tweak our businesses accordingly 😊 I hope you are doing well and you continue to flourish 💛

    Thank you for posting this video. I am going to think hard about selling on mercari but i don't know sounds like more cons than pros. It seem a little confusing how to navigate through it lol so right now it's a 30% chance i will sell on that platform. Poshmark is my number one 👏👏😁

    • @ChristinaCharalyn
      @ChristinaCharalyn  3 года назад +1

      Honestly, with every platform, the cons outweigh the pros. You just gotta pick your poison 😂 it’s always good to have more eyes on your items no matter what. I do wish they would make it a little less complicated though lol

    Hiya Christina, I’ve always heard nightmare stories about Mercari so stayed away. However I know people who find deals there on things people don’t know much about. Mixed bag I guess. Yes, definitely weird, even to navigate. Sorry I missed this one somehow (brain leakage... oh wait what brain?😉). Jet 🧡🎸🎶⚡️😻🏠🐾🐈‍⬛

    I've heard too many horror stories about Mercari. You can scan your packages at the self service kiosk in the post office lobby. Then you have a receipt of shipment.

    • @ChristinaCharalyn
      @ChristinaCharalyn  3 года назад +1

      It's a rollercoaster over there lol and omg yes! I always forget to tell people about those because we unfortunately don't have them here :(

      Be careful with those kiosks, I once sold 3 tablets when I was down on my luck, I really needed the money, the buyer never got them. I had to refund the money, which I already had spent on rent. 5 months later, the buyer received the tablets, 2 of them completely shattered and destroyed. I'm assuming they got stuck in the kiosk some where.
