Mercari

I ordered a CD from Mercari using a credit card. They withdrew the funds immediately and then emailed to say the item would not be sent because it was damaged during packing. But they would give me a "free" CD to make up for it. I asked customer service to just return my money. They emailed to say they wanted a photo of the item and an explanation of how it was damaged. I took a screen shot of my confirmation and their email saying the item had not shipped, attached it, and sent it to them. I also called with the same message but no one called back. Hard to tell whether they're criminals or just incompetent.

I bought an echo show from a seller.it worked perfectly and there was no reason for me not to rate the seller. But immediately after I rate the seller the reported the device stolen and amazon disabled my device and replace him with another device. I told Mercari about the scam and they didn't even read the complaint.my point is they get the three days ratings before pay right what are they doing to prevent this type of scam. Now I have a device that don't work whilst the seller have my money and another device from amazon. Mercari is not safe they don't protect the buyer

I made a purchase that was delivered damaged. The seller confirmed it was damaged but it was not provided anywhere in the posting. When I asked for a refund she went non responsive. When I went to customer service they essentially said there was nothing they could do. Stay far away from this company. They are set-up for money only. They knew they have a seller who is selling fraudulent merchandise and still do nothing. They closed the issue without resolving it even though they knew it had yet to be addressed. The closed it on their own.

Mercari stole shipping money from me. They did not attempt to resolve it at all. I am a 5 star customer and they treated me like a robot. Terrible customer service towards sellers. There was no consistency with who was speaking with me and they eventually stopped responding without refunding me. Their policy is robbery.

I ordered an item that arrived broken. No fault of the seller. The refund is still "under review" after three days. I sent pictures and all the info and there has been no response. An incredibly frustrating experience. I will NOT be purchasing through this company again. NOT recommended.

Buyers are unable to critically rate sellers if the buyer chooses to return an item, so if/when the buyer is unhappy with the seller for whatever reason, however egregious, if the buyer wants his money back, he The biggest problem with Mercari is that buyers are unable to leave a review for the seller. This fosters inaccurate and bloated 5 star ratings for the sellers and buyers having no way to tell whether or not they're about to deal with a shady seller. Mercari also gives each seller an automatic 5 star rating after a period of 3 days has elapsed if the buyer hasn't left the seller a review. Most of my transactions on Mercari have been good, but I have no way of warning others about the one really bad seller who pulled a bait & switch. That seller currently has 4,283 items listed as of now, so there will surely be some very disappointed buyers in the future.
