Alr, long story short, I bought this item from a seller and the product I received came in damaged. All I did was give him a four star review by putting in the reason with other compliments regarding this order and this fella js came up and started to dm bs at me like crazy about WHY I gave him four stars. Buddy, I wrote in the review why I gave u four stars… Can u not read??? Order was finished 2 days ago and he got his money. He also gave me 5 stars as the buyer when I rated him so I don’t know what this nonsense is about when it’s already been two days after the order has been completed… Istg I just learn something new everyday from some randos on Mercari😂

This man contacted me on eBay, then moved over to Mercari. He purports to be old and not used to buying online, but I can see that he’s been on Mercari for a year, and had purchased 40 items before… and just recently was rated poorly with a needs improvement on “friendliness”. For reference, he’s trying to buy two travel sized perfumes, one of which is sold out, and is not available on Walmart, nor any other third party resale platforms at the moment. He definitely made up the $”14 at Walmart” comment to try and coerce me to sell my listings for less. I’m the only one selling it, at the price it originally sold for. The other item is a heavy bottle of body lotion, which I have at the lowest going price on either eBay or Mercari.

I think my prices are right on the money and fairly priced as is, and the lowest discount I’d give to anyone for that bundle is 10%, but I wouldn’t be saving any money with this bundle, and the items are all newly listed, so I don’t mind waiting.

With all that said, after reading this and the screenshots above, what would you reply to this person? What would you say?

Had someone buy this shirt, sent the one message after the purchase, and shipped out. No critics at all, just whatever ‘NA’ means? And three stars? The shirt was in perfect condition, packaged in a nice bubble mailer, with a tiny thank you card, and I shipped out the day after she purchased. I’m just unsure what if anything was wrong and if so, would like to know to fix it. I don’t have many sales yet so good reviews mean a lot to me, and I try very hard to be as considerate as possible. Just a bit disappointed I guess

I have never sold anything on a website before and was always hesitate to do so. I have no clue where to even start. Clearing out my house of items that I have never used and not looking to get rich. Yard sales are too annoying because everyone wants something for nothing. I can't see selling a $100 item for $2 when I am only asking $20 for it. I have bought on Mercari and researched what people are selling these items for and $20 is reasonable.

Is it worth selling items? What are some things I should do to prepare? Should I buy boxes and a scale? Where should I begin?

How did this even happen? 37 pounds???? It was a shoe in the box, no extra wrapping paper or bubble wrap or nothing???? I contacted Customer support

Is this common? What would a buyer get out of messaging me that I'm selling something too low when the price should be much higher. I would think that if they saw me selling it for so cheap they would want to buy it since everyone else is selling it for inflated prices.

The only thing I can think of is that they have the same item and want to see if I can sell it for a higher price and then they can raise it even higher. But I'm not really sure. Maybe they just think they're being helpful by telling my the "real" price.

I bought an item from a seller they keep saying they'd ship it the next day and the next day and the next day. Nothing. I was patient and polite but couldn't help thinking it was odd that they had so many cancellations yet had over a hundred 5 star reviews.

They just cancelled on me out of the blue and now it says I can't message or like or buy any other items from them so I can't leave a bad review.

The item they had listed had been up for almost 5 months for a steal and it doesn't make sense that no one would have snagged it before I did when so many others that go for a similar price get sold out almost immediately.

Not to sound paranoid but was this some sort of tactic this seller is using to gain my info or what was their goal here?

I ordered a Nenodroid figure from Mercari user and then I haven’t really received any shipping update or anything like that but they posted the same thing different price. I messaged them so I hope they can get back to me. I hope they do I don’t know if anything happened to me like me being scammed or anything but should I get worried since I never really ordered anything off Mercari until now? They used the same photo tagged different price regardless of me buying it like 20 hours ago? I mean I don’t know if they have another one or if they just did what they did I don’t know what should I do now specially specially I spend 200 basically on this since it’s shipping and then figure itself. The seller has like 5 star reviews they posted 5 hours ago.

There’s also an issue on mercari apparently about storm delays? Idk

My friend has a huge collection of crystals and the like and I have never tried selling this stuff I was wondering if anyone's had success doing this on Mercari because I said I would try to help him.

I have quite a few sales on mercari and ebay so I figured using my account would make more sense than starting a brand new one.

Do these tend to do well or has anyone had any success pertaining to this or is it kind of a waste of time unless you are well established already in that market it seems niche but I do know a lot of people are into it so. I have really only sold video games, figurines, anime stuff etc. so this is all foreign to me.

I purchased a heavier and over $100 item, was marked as 10lbs for shipping. The seller reached out to me that she can’t get paid because of a shipping problem. Is there anything I can do to help this seller? Thank you!

Mercari sent me a message saying buyer can cancel if not updates in 24 hours. Tracking shows it was delivered on April 3rd, 3 days ago. Where do I reply to mercari? They make it so difficult to communicate with them. I even put extras in the buyers package. Better not be a scammer.

i had to re-add my card to the app (after speaking to a support agent about them blocking my payment method), and afterwards i notice one of the things i bought was removed from my bank statement? it was a $73.46 pending purchase that i distinctly remember seeing in my bank app. now it’s just gone?? i didn’t receive any emails or messages from them about it so i’m just extremely confused and i don’t want to get in trouble for accidentally committing fraud lol

Alright, so I bought an item from a seller last Friday/Saturday. Then I heard absolutely nothing from them and decided I wanted to cancel after four days. They responded, I gave them the benefit of the doubt, and then yesterday, April 5th (day 6), at 4:54 my time, 6/7:54 for them, they marked the item as dropped off- which I know for a fact that USPS closes early on Saturdays, 2:00 PM. At this point, I don’t even want the item anymore. Can I message Mercari and ask them to cancel for me? Mercari says I can starting yesterday but don’t provide the option directly.

Very disappointed to have to do this since I’ve been selling since 2019, and up until now it’s been a nice little side hustle. I just can’t wrap my head around the increasing fees and ridiculous shipping charges. The shipping cost $17 already on this item, and somehow the carrier claims RAIN BOOTS weigh nearly 10lbs! I put these in an a standard 9” x 12” amazon box, which fit the boots perfectly… they literally wouldn’t fit in anything else. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I ordered a package that the person that immediately dropped off to her UPS station but it’s been over 48 hours and UPS is still saying they haven’t received the package even though they dropped it off already? Should i be worried?? I’m scared i’m not going get my package because UPS always tends to fuck up when it comes to delivering stuff

I shipped a card collectible in an envelope to save on shipping. For further protection, I snuck in a thin bubble mailer to ensure no damage on the card. I was expecting no tracking number on this order, and I am now receiving one. Will USPS up charge me on shipping? My earnings would have been 2$, so essentially I will earn zero, lol.

Buyer claim they never found the package or received anything when it said delivered immediately wanted me to cancel. The order was vague on whether they actually contacted their post office or Mercari over it and has seem to stop responding altogether. How exactly do I navigate this to either get my money back or somehow get the item back. it was a $400 sale.

I didn't realize that I would need to mark my package with the dimensional weight instead of the actual weight. I had shipped boxes of larges sizes before, so I wasn't really expecting USPS to mark the 6lb package as 23lbs with an $85 shipping fee. I ended up not making any money from the sale because of it. Normally I wouldn't mind a fee, but $85 is a lot. Am I just screwed or is there something I can do?

I sold this pokemon tcg (wrapper ) to a guy on best offer. I just shipped it in a envelope inside a padded envelope because I mean it's a wrapper and what will happen. Gave me a 1 star and no description but packaging I swear I hate pokemon tcg people. Probably going to use it to fill it with cards and sell it as new sealed pack. A hole

how confident do you have to be to send a 53% off offer..

I bought a big bag of mixed colored gel pens. When I opened the box, I noticed it smells like a smoker's house, it is very subtle, but I'm super sensitive to it and I hate it. I don't want to keep these. Should I bother to say anything? I don't think I'd go so far as to ask for a refund, however I was thinking of putting something in my review. (If the seller offered to accept a return, I'd be happy with that) If it was an item of clothing or something like that I would definitely say something.

The last several packages I’ve ordered from Mercari are taking 2-4 weeks to arrive after being shipped the next day or two which is really unusual. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I’m receiving packages from all over the state and world in less than that time with no issues. But my packages from Mercari keep taking several weeks, and I notice they just get scanned and stuck the entire time.

The last 2 packages looked like the automatic Mercari shipping label and I’m assuming this is the same. Did Mercari change their label times? I always thought they were just a few days shipping.

Is anyone else experiencing this? This may just be my last item I order from Mercari. 😕

I’ve been dragging my feet on listing because I wanted to figure out shipping prices first. I created a USPS business account and it said shipping was $8 so I figured I did the math wrong. I’ve seen people sell single cards for under $2.00.

How much is the shipping fee for one single trading card (a rough estimate)? I’m going to sandwich it between 2 top loaders then put it inside of a 6 x 9 bubble mailer.

Thanks in advance.

Has anyone else received unnecessary rude messages lately? Pictured is one example I received recently. Like they definitely could have said this in a nicer way imo lol
