[Consolidated] Discussion on Carousell encounters & experience

[toffeelatte]

Buyer kept spamming me calling me a dishonest seller some more. Crazy.

Can you report the buyer? This buyer is a nightmare

Yup, can block and/or report. She was a real nightmare and couldn’t even type properly. Kept spamming 1-5 words each time like:
I never
Even see
The condition
And also
When I receive
Already like that
Anyway
I do not want it
I will leave bad review
Dishonest
Thanks

Relooking at the conversation makes me want to send a hell note to her.

Omg she sounds like some of the buyers on Carousell. Always 1 word like price or where or avail. No punctuation. I bet she has some negative reviews too.

 

[toffeelatte]

I think she was very unhappy being exposed as you had evidence the item was in good condition at the point of mailing.

 

[toffeelatte]

I thought nobody would buy from me as I am new and had zero reviews but I listed my item anyway as I wasn’t using it and it was new. People either dm with 1 word or mia after I replied.

The next day a buyer dm me and was ready to meet right away after I said it’s still available. He did try to negotiate and change meeting place but I was adamant after all the siao lang I encountered. In the end he did show up on time and paid and left me a positive review. Item was sold in less than 24 hrs.

My best experience ever.

There are very steady buyers using carousell. You just need to transact a few more times to look out for certain traits - they’re usually of a certain kuan. I’ve sold items to more than 200 buyers so far, and most of them will type proper sentences (ignore the ‘avail’ ‘nego’ ‘where’ ‘more photos?’ messages), reply promptly, don’t ask many questions, arrange for a meet up or transfer funds within a day.

Thank you! You’re very encouraging! I hope to meet the steady buyers. I almost wanted to give up. A lot of them are very rude and irresponsible. I’ve learned to ignore those with improper sentence.

That said, I’ve encountered one with good reviews and wrote properly whom cancelled at the last minute and he expect me to accept offer and hold the item for 5 days. My item is very popular and it’s in new condition at 50% off retail price. I got fed up and removed the listing. I will re-list at a higher price.

What does accepting offer means? Will it be taken off the market?

I absolutely HATE people who type like that.
Imagine there's an alert for every line, my phone would have exploded.
I would send her a hell note and a candle.

will not be taken off market but it means both of you can leave each other feedback , so if you change your mind not to sell, he can leave you a negative feedback , so its best not to accept offer unless that person has a lot of ratings or you already receive the money

I’m glad I did not accept offer.

Say no money then don’t buy. Or beg for money on the streets until he has enough to buy your item.

That should be the way isn’t it? People just don’t appreciate it. I will remember about the offer thing.

Btw what does blocking do? I’m confused as i’m still receiving that person’s messages

Anyone here flip iPhone/iPad.
Why is it activated one, the value is lesser?
Unit can use and the warranty only less than a day.

Yet the value is lower than those BNIB?
