Mercari

It's almost impossible to contact them despite their contact us button. You have to choose options that doesn't fit.

A return does not go by their policies, it basically goes based on the person doing it and what they want to do. 2 examples. An item received that was suppose to be new and original packaging clearly wasn't but they deny a return. They say the don't accept returns for smells but clearly did. Examples and pictures of all available and provided by their minimum wage workers decide based on their mood of the day.

Don't buy or use mercari. It's not worth the hassle of receiving an empty box where tracking shows delivered but not what's in it.

I've had a wonderful time buying and selling on Mercari! It's been better than using Depop and other services at times.

I used to sell items very quickly on here and I've been able to buy some authentic rare items for cheaper here.

PLEASE make this service available in Puerto Rico. I no longer live in Florida so I can't use the website anymore. It was my favorite selling/buying service.

USPS considers Puerto Rico "domestic" USPS for labels, so it should be possible to use Mercari, but it's not allowed yet… Hopefully in the future…

This app is full of rude and entitled white people who think they can talk to anybody any kinda way but what theyd dont know about me is that i have another account on mercari. I have 2 accounts and if someone wants to talk crazy to me then block me i will log into my other account and cuss them out because I am not the one!. Another compliant i have is how much they take from sellers. The fee is crazy. There is also a poor lack of customer service and they always seem to take the buyers side.

Bought a Swatch listed as "New". It arrived and didn't work. The packaging had been opened so I took it out and checked for a battery. The insides of the watch had been somehow twisted so the battery wasn't accessible. Sent a return request with pictures of this watch along with an actual new one. They denied the return because I had opened the battery compartment.
I should have researched the seller, they had just created their page, this was the only item, they said from Texas but the return address on the package doesn't exist and tracking shows that it actually came from Florida. Even with all of this now obvious fraud, Mercari said sorry because I opened the battery compartment to see why the watch wasn't working. Mercari is a place for scams.

I placed an order for razor, immediately I was bombarded by junk mail trying to make me download app (s). After few days instead of my paid order I got this unbelievable stupid message from seller:

Hello! Thank you for your purchase! When preparing to package your razors, I realized that the package of disposable razors my husband used without telling me. I am so sorry. I do have a new package of the Schick Quattro razor that comes with two 4 bladed cartridges I would be happy to replace. This package is not the disposable throw always though. If that doesn't suffice, I am happy to accept your order cancellation. Please let me know how to proceed. Thank you for your understanding.

Mercari locked me out of my account. 2 weeks before Christmas and are still holding my funds. It's been 8 months with over 100 emails sent. No reply phone calls. They give me the same forwarded message & when they have requested any info I've sent it back x5... And with a few hours they fed me a message saying that they've closed my inquiry. They have my kids Christmas from last year 400$'s + that they won't direct deposit to me or allow me to regain access to my account...

Mercari suspended my account for no good reason, They were demanding my social security number and my drivers license number. They said they want to make sure that I am not funding TERRORISM... I am a grandmother and I sold some jewelry from my mothers estate, she recently passed. Mercari is not allowing me to direct deposit my money into my bank account from my sales. They are stealing $198.00 from me. I just keep getting a message from them stating that they want all of my personal information. I will be calling channel 12 news. Do not sell on this site, you will regret it. There is no way to speak to anyone. All I keep getting are messages that sound robotic...

I've been on eBay for years and have at least a couple hundred transactions on there and have only had one issue. That's like a.5% issue rate. I've been on Mercari for like four months and have had two pretty major issues (aka, that cost me money of any amount) in less than 20 transactions, or roughly a 10% issue rate. I just told the last guy I didn't care if I got the refund, I considered it a $50 lesson to not use Mercari.

Edit: More orders have been messed up. Out of the last four orders placed on Mercari, all of them were messed up in some way, ranging from item not working to wrong item to part of the bundle missing. Review changed to '1'. Mercari needs investigated. Too much is going on for Mercari themselves not to know.

It's been over 2 weeks now and they still haven't processed my W9 form while locking my whole account and not letting me answer customers even! Just letting me tarnish my name on there while they take their sweet time! They also stopped responding to my messages after 2 days lol what a joke of a company, STAY AWAY!
