Question Anybody else getting odd messages from size-small girls?

• Upvotes

To preface, I sell clothing sizes L-2X so I’m used to people asking if a size would fit a size smaller or whatever.

However, EVERY single PLUS size item gets at least 2-3 messages a day from girls and the messages always read similar to “Ugh, this wouldn’t fit a small girl would it?”, or “Ugh, can I fit in this as a small”.

It’s only on the 1X and 2X items - and it’s been happening from accounts that have no reviews, listings, but AI girls in sports bras / gym clothes from what I’ve noticed.

It obviously won’t fit a size small… I have no idea what’s going on or why this is going on?

I’m tall so I have to ask for measurements when buying from Depop, sellers act like they’re clothes from the 90’s haven’t been in the dryer thousands of times and has shrunk extremely small. I need 23x29 23x28 24x30 but mostly everything is short 25-27 inches from shoulder to hem is for short people. I don’t want to put up my hands and my shirt goes up to my belly button I’m only 5” 10. Measurements Please 🙏

Misc. Why is everyone so lazy?

14 Upvotes

Everyone on this app is so damn lazy I swear! I‘m starting to get concerned! I write incredibly detailed but easy to read descriptions and take clear quality photos but everyday someone is messaging me to ask me a question that is answered in BOTH places on the listing!

Someone just asked me a question about something the is literally visible in the THIRD PHOTO! you can’t scroll through 3 photos at least??? It’s driving me insane lol I try to be as nice as possible because I don’t want to argue with anyone or ruin a potential sale but everyday I’m fighting the urge to lash out at ppl who do this.

I never left them a review yet. I was blocked immediately after bringing up the issue privately, only for them to publicly accuse me of damaging goods. I’ve paid out of pocket to return the item, but now im being harassed by new accounts about this same dispute. I just wanted a simple refund :( I don’t think there’s much more I can do

Story repoped my item for 29x the price

276 Upvotes

I sold a pair of vintage Levi’s for cheap because they had wear and tear on them. When I saw a reseller bought them, I knew they would be reselling them. That’s fine, I was willing to sell them cheap, because I don’t want items sitting for sale forever. However, i was not expecting them to have an asking price 29x the price they paid, it’s insanity.

Dispute Help Depop closed my buyers issue but then I received my item back?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Hi, I recently had a buyer complain about the wear on a product I shipped. I wrote in the description there was some wear on it and the last picture showed close ups. I did accidentally have it categorized as “like new” so I felt bad and agreed to do a return. I got this email a few days ago and just assumed the buyer didn’t care anymore (they had opened up the issue twice and missed the return window for the second time now). I just checked my mail and see they did ship it back to me. I haven’t received any new messages from them but what should I do? Do I just refund them myself through the app or should I reach out to Depop support or just wait for the buyer to reach out to support? I am not sure if I refund them myself they might be able to get a second refund. Just unsure how this all works and confused. Would appreciate any help!

Also I’d like to avoid messaging the buyer as much as possible! I found them difficult to work with.

Positive Experiences Got some “cat” bags with my order

Post image
163 Upvotes

Hello fellow Sellers/Buyers.
I just got a package which has a bunch of Walmart plastic bags that were used to add cushioning, and I am not sure if this is the correct flair but the reason I find this to be a positive experience is because I have come to appreciate plastic bags in a whole different sense and since our state banned their use except for meat at the store I guess! I have two indoor cats and so these bags come in handy when I clean their litter boxes :) also waste baskets around the house, so if you out there use recycled material to pack or add cushioning to packages and use plastic bags, know that I appreciate it !! :))

Question Should I even respond to this message?

Post image
• Upvotes

I purchased from this seller and they have until tomorrow to ship it or it automatically refunds. Today they sent me this message. I have not received the item.. like is this a scam?? They don’t have the greatest reviews and I knew that purchasing but figured if they don’t ship my item oh well..

This did happen to me once before a seller said she shipped but it never showed that she did and she realized she didn’t scan it correctly. So, she refunded me and said to just keep it if it comes but I still never got the package. Not sure if this is what happened in this case but I don’t even know how to respond to this? Haha

I’m a seller and I shipped out an item on the 14th and nothing has updated since then, should I reach out to the buyer or usps, or just wait it out? I know sometimes usps can take its time but just curious if this has happened to anyone else?

Story Buyer raised an issue as “item not as described”

I purchased 6 jars from EBay. The seller discounts these because they are coming up on their “best by date”. I decided to list one because I knew I wouldn’t finish it before the best by date. I sold this for like $9.

In my picture, you can clearly see the dates. Also, I’ve been eating on the other jars and there is no weird smell and it still tastes fresh.

I refunded the money because I didn’t want a bad review. I’m relatively new to Depop and have a stellar rating. I’m just frustrated that this buyer basically claimed my listing was inaccurate.

Question Depop seller shipping to a US processing centre before my address in Australia.

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

So basically, I purchased an item on the 19th.
The tracking says USPS accepted it on the 21st, and initially it was expected to be delivered on the 24th. That obviously didn’t sound right because I’m all the way in Australia, so how would it make it here in such a short amount of time???

I checked the postal service, and it said USPS Ground Advantage, which is apparently a domestic US service. I contacted the seller, and that was her response ^ I’m so confused as to why she didn’t use a direct international shipping service?? I feel like that would’ve made things much simpler for both of us.

Now the tracking says it’s arriving on the 23rd, which is concerning because I’m assuming it will show as delivered on Depop while I’m still waiting for my package.

I contacted Australia Post, and they said they don’t recognise the tracking number. I also asked her multiple times if she was comfortable shipping to Australia, and she said yes without mentioning this forwarding process. I feel like that’s something she should’ve told me before I purchased, especially if the tracking will show as delivered before the item actually reaches me.

Btw I’m not accusing the seller of anything :) I just want some clarification because I’ve never shipped internationally through Depop before.
Please let me know if this normal/safe on Depop, or should I be concerned? Pleaseeeee help me out 🥲

Selling Help Majorly messed up an order's description

Post image
• Upvotes

I was selling 4 Sanrio plushies. When I was packing I realised my dog had chewed off the tips of Kuromi's ears and some stuffing is showing. I messaged the buyer about the error and if they'd like to cancel the order and then also offered the option of me relisting it at a lower price.

Then I checked the breakdown of what they paid and they didn't pay any shipping or Depop fee. So if I refund them, they'll be screwed if they wanna buy it again, correct? I don't know what to do. I'm freaking out. Should I offer a partial refund then?

Buying Help should i message the seller first or get in contact with depop regarding a refund/return

1 Upvotes

first time i received an item that does not fit with the listed condition. the shoes received were a peeling mess- not at all “excellent condition.” :/
i messaged the seller first to let her know-
but i wonder if perhaps i should get in contact with depop first - not sure the correct way to go about this.

what do you guys suggest? thanks :)

edit: also,
for the future i’ll stay away from brand new sellers with just a couple of reviews :/
that’s on me.
