Mercari

I posted my iPad and iPhone on Mercari two days ago, as this is the very first time I have ever heard of Mercari through a TV commercial. Two days later I received a email that my account is suspended and subsequently closed. The explanation was that I violated their policy. I have requested but not received which of their polices I violated, so I have no clue what I supposedly did that is the violation. Mercari stated I have been given several warning and failed to heed them, again., my account is only two (2) days old. The only time I access my account is to reply to members that inquire about my listing. I mean it's ok if I can no longer use their website, but it is so insulting to be accused of doing something wrong and not be allowed to defend yourself. If I violated Mercari policies it was unintentional and I am still unaware of what that violation is. This really sucks., I swear every words of this review is based on my two experience with Mercari

I get a bundle thinking on getting a quick and saving shipping fees buy, the sellers kept messaging me to rate them and it's annoying, And when I check on the item it's put 2 good item and somewhere inside is a bad item.

I want to rate this -1000 after you sold items, you are forced to use their credit to buy stuff, this Christmas was disgusting. Cannot get other methods of payments out of there when selling stuff,
I gone some other place to sell.

I made an accident purchased and tried reaching out the seller right away. The seller never responded and three days later delivered my order. My rating I made on Mercari was 3 stars for the seller because he did not attempt to make any communication with me. Even after I received the product. Mercari would not accept my 3 rating because it said my product was received and it was consider fulfilled. They would not publish my 3 rating star and reviews on the seller profile. If you look at all their reviews from their sellers... they are all almost perfect. Not honest like Amazon. Amazon releases all reviews bad and good. Since, I don't trust that site and have not ordered from there.

I shipped an item, used an entire roll of bubble wrap and other packing material and the item was broken in transit to the buyer. They have $200 insurance on each package, but they refused to pay me and I got a broken item shipped back to me that I couldn't sell. The really stupid thing is they owed me $18.80 but instead of just using the insurance to pay me they paid $11 for the buyer to send the broken item back. The buyer even sent them messages saying that I packaged it more than adequately. They don't listen to your side and could care less that you're losing money. Poshmark has its quirks, but I'd recommend it over this site any day. This is run by liars that do NOT stand behind their word.

I bought 2 products on mecari the very first time using it. A seller by the name of Reynaldo Gonzales is scamming people on this app, gave me the exact same excuse on why it was taking so long for him to send me a device that it was taking someone else with the same product. Horrible app. Then they cancelled the sale. I guess they could get what they wanted out of the sell or something. So I went elsewhere for the same exact products in better condition.

I an pretty disappointed at mercari, I had the chance to buy a few times and sell once and the experience was not pleasant.
I could not find a way to contact the mercari website and after searching in the web I found a number where there is a message that says leave your name and number and we will contact you.
My last experience I bought a wireless headphones that where delivered on a friday afternoo, we have a manager on site to receive packages. I actually got the package on a sunday, everything seemed fine until I tried to pair the headphones with my phone, one of the pieces didn't work, so I sent a message to the seller explaining and he tells me to open a return when I try the mercari website won't let me saying the transaction was closed after 3 days and the item is no longer returnable. I tried to contact the website and again not only confusing but it keeps taking you to the question page and that's all. Buy at your own risk.

I placed an order for an item. Mercari reached out twice for the seller to ship the item. Upon seeing that Mercari reached out, I did as well. Then this seller decided to get angry with me and called me ugly. I responded telling her that I merely wanted an update oh my order, and that her calling me ugly was inappropriate. I found her rude unkind. So please beware of this 'shop'. She is rude. She cancelled the order so that I could not leave her a review. I did notify Mercari, but I doubt anything will come of it.

They offer a $10 off discount code that you can share. Problem is, they neglect to tell you that the recipients who use the link and sign up for their accounts lose the ability to use the discount. So I contacted them (be aware that that process is already a struggle in itself) asking how the heck would the person be able to buy something and use the $10 credit if they didn't have an account since you have to choose between "sign in" (not possible if you are a new customer) and "sign up" - which is what they did and caused them to lose the discount. WTF. Stupid company, not worth the aggravation. And in terms of my purchase experience, so far the seller hasn't contacted me and hasn't shipped within the 3 days the site seems to tout. Yeah, huge regrets I ever bought anything from this site. Never again. Once my transaction is resolved, I'm going to delete my account.

Mercari close my account for no reason and stole my money. They ask me to complete a verification process. I Completed it 3 weeks ago and now mercari wont even respond. I contact them 10 times. I will file a complaint with BBB and attorney general office.

My order arrived incomplete, I immediately contacted the seller who never replied. When checking if I had a response, and to follow up, I learned that the app automatically closed out the sale after just 3 days from delivery, gave the seller a 5* rating on my behalf and I can no longer contact the seller. I contacted Mercari who said that because the sale was closed nothing can be done to address my issue, and that dialogue closed in less than 24hrs so I couldn't even respond.

They have a 72 hour no exceptions return policy. If you buy something better check it fast if it doesn't work they have a no refund no exchange no credit policy. Your stuck with that broke item they took your money. The crook gets paid and they make a commission. I was at 76 hours and they could have cared less. Don't buy here they are ebay no return and they don't even tell you. You can't even reach out to the seller like you can on eBay. They automatically put in a review so you can't even warn others about the seller. The reviews are worthless bot reviews.

I placed an order for Marshmallow sprinkle candles and captured a deliver address different from my billing address. I even captured the delivery address on the order. Somehow, someone there switched the order up and delivered to my billing address. Immediately, as soon as I saw this on one of the delivery updates, I contacted Mercari (seller) and and informed them of the issue via text on their customers service app. The only response I received was the label shows my billing address. My immediate response was of course because you all switched it and it needs to be corrected. Needless to say, I received no apologies nor any help to resolve the issue. To make matters worst I had to pay an additional $15 to resend the package to the original address I ask for in the beginning. I would not purchase anything else from "Mercari" and highly warn others to strongly consider not placing orders from this seller. Buyers Beware!

You're on your own here - no support from the company and no way to get in contact with anyone. You can write, you can leave messages (they do not monitor phones), but no one will get back with you. And you cannot rely on ratings (for sellers or buyers) as Mercari will simply post them for you without your knowledge. I was without power (and thus, no internet) for days due to a weather emergency and wasn't able to quickly post a rating on an order, so Mercari simply did it for me with no idea how or what happened with the order. Dishonest! This is a direct quote from the email Mercari sent me: "Rating provided to Seller
Looks like we didn't receive your rating for the item listed below, so we've updated the transaction on your behalf!" And then they turned around and gave me a negative rating. For what? Failure to leave a rating within 7 days? Gee... sorry the electric company turned off power to 20,000 people and I happened to be one of them. I will never do business with them again.

Wow! Never use Mercari! A buyer claimed in a review that my item arrived late. I have tracking that proves the item arrived early. Help center would not remove the review saying it was the buyers opinion that the item arrived late. Even though I could prove it wasn't true with tracking. They said they couldn't remove it but would have the higher ups look at it. Then they changed their name to peach claiming to be a supervisor. All the previous messages were then sent by peach though. Incredibly insulting and ridiculous. I wanted to keep my store from being lied about and smeared. Not only did they not help but they lied to me repeatedly in a ridiculous fashion. I've Never experienced customer service that was so insulting and clearly had no interest in helping me. I had high hopes for Mercari but if you're a serious seller avoid this marketplace like the plague. So ridiculous

I used my hard earned money to pay for a baby swing that was sold as new but it was not new it was used and didn't work but they would not accept a return and refund the customer service dept just kept giving me the run around. The item came in a box that wasn't even the original box and had scratched all over it.
