They're making everything so complicated and changing major rules back and forth in very short periods of time--let alone the fake stuff that's all over their site. Lost interest in buying anything from there. You make total sense Winnie! Thanks for sharing!💙
All of the resale sites are getting out of hand with the fees! How many emails have we gotten from posh and mercari in the last two years?! Also yes I was scammed this year on a coach Cassie via Mercari. Paid like $175 and it was a super fake! There’s super fakes and bad fakes allll over their site now.🍌
I sell on both Mercari and Poshmark for over 7 years now and I can honestly tell you they both gone to hell in a handbasket !!! the fees are absolutely insane and everybody wants everything for $10 ! I’ve been selling my entire collection of Victoria’s Secret since I’ve been collecting it since the late 90s I’ve had over 1000 items yes I know I sound nuts however nobody wants to pay for anything anymore the market is just so saturated !!! I feel your pain girl ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I started with eBay in 2014, then flipped to Mercari around 2018 and sold a bunch of my old clothes and bags. But since the change, completely left the platform. Done with the games and would rather just consign locally or donate.
I have a 5 star rating on Mercari and all the badges. I loved it for selling and buying. The fees have put me off. Technically we're all paying the same amount as before, but it's the psychology of it. Buyers won't checkout if there are extra fees. Doesn't matter if it's 15% or 3.6%. And why call it buyer protection fee? What are we protected from? I still list on Mercari but I focus more on Poshmark. Poshmark tried to pull the same bs and people were pissed. They walked that back quick! 😂
I appreciate the old Mercari. I sold A LOTTT. I don’t use it anymore. Anything and everything is on there. Moved to posh and as soon as I list something, I’m hit with a dozen spam comments saying “sold! We have already collected payment from the buyer”. 🤦🏽♀️ You can’t have anything! Curbing my enthusiasm for buying as well. I have begun to use a brick and mortar consignment shop.
Poshmark tried to take away the buyers fee and put it on the seller too and everyone bitched so much that they changed it back within a week!! At least they listened
I love Mercari! Yes they keep screwing things up...but I do really well both buying and selling there. I welcome the return of the fee structure, although I do agree the 3.9% buyer fee is bs... The scams are getting bad though, almost as bad as ebay. That's way Mercari pulls anything and everything that even looks designer, and they question. Pay $5 and have it authenticated. It's worth it and you won't be flagged by their computer.
Because there are more options for sellers and buyers, resale platforms and brands that are now involved with reselling are scrambling to keep and to attract people. So, I think platforms such as Mercari are looking to try new fees and costs. Love your videos!
Thank you, Winnie! It's so good we can share the scoop on these sites. In my experience Ebay should be called Scamarama. I guess it's Poshmark for now. Ei yi yi!🥴❣️🌻
I just tried to sell a item for the first time And and I have to pay a $250 activation fee then a shipping and delivery and $250 security deposit now I have to pay a $100 and they will refund my money to activate my account
Mercari used to be good but boy oh boy they are bound and determined to sink their own ship🍌 posh is pure chaos - eBay is easier but I’ve never tried to sell anything there. VC (RIP Tradesy) has issues too with fakes and undisclosed quality issues. Where can we go that is shenanigan free?
I’m very annoyed, I just made a purchase 12/8 and the item barely shipped and now they sent me a free fee for buyer. This is a holiday special. I agree with Poshmark too, it’s very people trying to trade (feels like high school)
I only buy off eBay it’s easy and hassle free as a buyer. I do not like either posh or Mercari not for me. eBay is where I shop other than that it’s TRR. TFS good luck 👍 👛🛍️🚢🦆🙏
I have never used mercari to sell anything. Thank you for giving us the heads up. It is definitely a difficult time to sell things. I took huge losses on a Valentino crossbody I parted with to put money towards the mini antigona. I also parted with a Michael Kors bag and very little for that one. I am just going to enjoy the mini antigona and not buy anything else indefinitely.
omg - mercari has def gone down the drain! My legit authentic bags get flagged, or they can't even be authenticated because their stupid live photo app sucks and doesn't take clear pictures. I've complained so many times - I'm like look at my feedback and then look at SueBilly Wong over there posting a CUCCI bag for 200 bucks and no feedback. It's like get real. uggh!🍌🍌🍌🍌
No mercari sucks. I sold something for $600 and the “buyer”marked it on app as “refused package like they never ordered It or knew it was coming” and it was supposed to come back to me and never updated tracking again after it hit her house Never did get it back so “buyer kept it” and after a month mercari only offered a $200 “coverage protection” so I got screwed and got $200 no bad points for buyer. Looks like scam to me
Hey babes thanks for the video I stopped buying from Mercari due to the fakes bs which I find so strange since Mercari is a Japanese company owned and operated where it’s extremely illegal but whatevs I guess but thanks for sharing the knowledge 💚💚💚 🍌
Until ppl stop using these sites they are gonna continue to have outrageous behaviors. I’ve never used these sites, I don’t trust them from your guys stories.🍌
I stopped buying anything on Mercari, the fees are out of control!
This week ZERO FEES! 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️

It's a total mess! I'm so annoyed at all the changes, too! 🤣❤️❤️❤️❤️. Thank you, Mirella!
That’s exactly right, you buy a $12 item and it costs you $20.
@@miradonfbd right! Insane!
Yes! You tell them lol those fees are ridiculous!!! 😂
It’s gone completely nutty over there! 🤣🤣. Can you imagine the meetings they have? ❤️❤️❤️
The fees on buyers are ridiculous!!!
So bad! ❤️❤️

I’ve always preferred them over other platforms because it’s easy. They just need to stop changing the fee structure. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🤣🤣
I've never checked out Mercari, but I appreciate this information. Thanks Winnie 😊
I stopped buying and selling since the time they said buyers could return for any reason ...
This is why I never sell anything. Far too stressful. Worse than rotten bananas. 🍌

I totally agree with you! Thank you so much! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I have never been interested in Mercari. They lost me at paying to bid. I’m sticking with eBay.
I used to buy on Mercari all the time. Now, NO WAY! They are nuts!
Thank you, Winnie! It's so good we can share the scoop on these sites. In my experience Ebay should be called Scamarama. I guess it's Poshmark for now. Ei yi yi!🥴❣️🌻

Thred up is easy to sell clothes but the money you would get is low.
No Mercari for me!

They banned me for selling authentic bags!!! Yes, authentic! Reported my some idiot for fake!!! Goodbye Mercari! I sold them on eBay!!!
Just sits and shakes head at the selling platforms
