If you don’t have a printer, it is okay. They will send you a QR code and you have to go to UPS (not USPS). They will be able to scan the code for you and print out the label. Again, UPS.
I have printer name” Jaeden” it will print but too small..4”x 6” The problem is.. is too small when the print out came out!! And I was worried too because when I saw the address.. it was a PO box Is it safe to send to a PO box and just its address only?? But how they can buy or paid it- does it meant they have an account also they just dont like to show their own address for privacy?? Please someone help for these all problems I having right now.. The customer service of mercari is uneasy to reach..
Thanks for the tips! I want to start cross listing but honestly Feel intimidated by the process. I sell on Poshmark but I want to see if I can boost sales by selling on mercari. I only want to cross list light weight items like clothing. Do I still need a scale?? Or can I just print out the label and slap it on. That’s why I like Poshmark, shipping is so easy.
Hi Becky! Found you as a recommendation from another reseller and so happy I did! I’m a new reseller considering adding another platform and this explanation of how to use Mercari has been tremendously helpful. Love your content!
Hello Becky, I just started looking around to find someone to tell me about Mercari. I found you because you have very friendly face and your eyes sparkle 😊 I hope you don’t mind me asking some questions, I need a bit more information. Question: 1. You said if your item is shipped in my area Mercari will send someone to pick it up and take it to them! Is this correct? How much do they charge? How many miles is covered? How much does Mercari charge to list items when you sell? 2. If an item doesn’t sell can you re-list the item in the future? 3. How long can your items stay listed? 4. How do you add your payment method like: Pay Pal ? Thanks for all your help and support ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️💜
I have been selling also on Mercari I love how you can sell almost anything. I sell golf clubs too beside clothes, and anything not nailed down. My question has anyone sold candles that may of been burned only once or so but still look good??
I just wonder: is ther any Mercari terms/deadlines for item delivery after payment is recieved likely 3-5 or 10 days? -How much time do seller has to upload tracking number after payment recieved, 1, 2 or 3 days etc.? -What carrier tracking Mercari accept/recognize: UPS, Fedex, USPS and others like Ebay or only UPS, Fedex, USPS ? -If ship/fulfill order outside US , for instance China to USA or EU to USA, does Mercari accept ups or usps traking that shows for instance Berlin-New york UPS/USPS tracking info or Shanghai -New ork UPS/USPS tracking info?
Thank you for the tutorial, Becky. I’ve been selling on Poshmark for 3 years and have done well. Just signed up on mercari but app not user friendly. I’ve listed to items so far as you indicated though I only saw UPS as my option, not USPS. See my listings at top on home page. Can only locate one of my listings, typing in exactly as I listed them. Under my profile, states I have no listings. Thoughts? Also, is there a way to go back and edit a listing?
Hi why in Poshmark everybody like your items, share your listing (all day long) how much $$ are these people pay to do that?? But at the end of the day they don’t give you a like or buy anything from you, I realize is like a daily game!!
Sorry, another question. I went to my listings and each one has shipping at $7.99 Can I change the price to the $4 dollars you mentioned. I don't see that anywhere.
I just started sellibg on mercari but I only saw the $7.99 shipping option. Haven't sold anything yet and wondering if the shipping cost has an effect on that. Also when should you weigh the item?
hello. i like your video. i have one question: can it be possible to buy and sell the same items using the same account? i.e. i want to buy cheap and resell.
I had an awful experience with POSHMARK, they removed my items from my closet stating they were counterfeit. Meantime all me items were AUTHENTIC plus I received numerous fraud messages wanting me to text them my payment options. Never again POSHMARK so far so good in Mercari but I will be trying EBay.
I’m wondering if I can have two accounts. I started a store after watching this video - selling in my bath and body works and things that smell good. I want to have a second account for random odds and ends. I wonder how this will work auto taxes. Do you need to make an LLC?
I make 20 to 30 percent higher prices on eBay vs Mercari and don't have to wait 10 days to get paid. Mercari encourages cheap low ballers. Lowballers are not a clientele anyone wants. Buyers on eBay are much better.
What I don’t like about Mercari is no matter how nice you are with people with your messages asking for a review or letting them know in the best way that you already ship their item and i think they don’t have manners or values and they just IGNORE you (like who you are to write to me?) and then they don’t write you a review and Mercari has to do it automatically!! Maybe rude sellers have more luck than nice sellers than me!! Also they are stupid prople that you place a BRAND NEW Nike fleece for $55 and they send you this f… g offer for $11. Let’s see if she goes to Northtrom and buy a brand new Nike fleece athletic pants for $11, but she wants to make her stupid money selling purses for $400. I really hate that kind of people that doesn’t respect my marchendise and try to be f..,,g smart with me!
@@MoonkissedMintakan i am a reseller not a downsizer. If I am going to drive to the shipper, stand in line at the shipper, be forced by government to pay federal, state and local tax on the sale and pay Mercari a commission I deserve to be paid FAIR market value. Not all but most Mercari buyers remind me of fat ignorant selfish people who don't want to get off the sofa. They remind me of the people who tip 5%
@Noras_Pawsive bought like- 4 ps3 games from the site, i can confirm its not a scam Just make sure you dont buy anything that only has stock images on it
I so needed to hear this, Intimidated to start on another platform but knowing macari would be my first pick if I did. Thank you. Extremely helpful. ❤👍🏻
I have a couple of questions please! As far as mailing packaging goes…I’ve heard that I could get free supplies from the USPS, is this true and if so, how do I go about that? Obviously this would be for small items, such as clothing etc. Second question is what kind of scale do you use for weighing your items and just can you walk me thru the packaging procedure I guess? Perhaps you may have a video on that and I will actually keep searching for that! Thanks for your awesome helpful video and I will try to use your link to help you out. I’ve bought several items on Mercari but I’ve never sold anything. I’d like to start trying to tho.
I needed this video too. I have bought items on Mercari but was too scared to sell. I read your replies but still have a couple questions. 1. Do I need a special label printer & labels, or can I print using a regular printer & paper & just tape it on? 2. As far as shipping, do you weigh the item and shipping is based on that, or does Mercari give you a shipping amount when you enter the item? Still nervous to get started. Thank you
Hello! This was a fabulous clear concise to the point explanation! Thank you so much! 😊I have been purchasing on Mercari, but I’m now going to try to sell a few things. ❓❓❓One question that I have is whether or not you Mercari has it set up to get actual printable sticky labels for your packages for printing or if you can just tape the printed label on paper?
Should I feel confident as a buyer if seller has no prior sales, photo, other items for sale, item price seems too good to be true. Is it true seller doesn’t get paid till buyer receives item?
When you decide you want to ship an item on your own, do you include the approximate shipping cost in your listing price? As in do you wrap the item up as if you're about to send it and then take weight and dimensions even before you list it?
Thank you so much for this video! I'm moving in less than 2 months and have a boat load of things to sell. I've never sold anything on any apps like this so I've been feeling overwhelmed. Thank you for breaking everything down and for the confidence boost!!
Thank you so much for the video. I love it. I am going to start selling after watching your video ❤ I have a question regarding the seller address . Would you recommend open a PO box ? I don’t feel comfortable adding my home address for safety purpose.
I would love to see a video on using the desktop Mercari app. Some of us have hands, fingers and eyes that don't work well with tiny little images on a phone. I have enjoyed your videos and have gotten a lot of good information that I use on the desktop
This place has the worst customer service. They will not even allow you to contact a buyer to solve an issue with an item or refund them after any review is given. As a seller you should always be able to try and fix any issues customers have. I pride myself in excellent customer service. Stay away and use any other platform but not Mecari.
So am scared and confused. Do you get paid on Mercari after your buyer receives your item? Because I have something that is marked sold and I need three days to ship it out but I haven’t received money for it. Can someone help me please?
Mercari is my favorite too but when I need a question answered there is no way to get an answer. The Help Center just goes in a loop. I'm going to ask you your opinion and hope by some lucky chance you will see it and answer. Customer bought 3 items and wanted to combine them. I made a new listing for all 3 items and they sold. Does Mercari penalize for for not responding to those items I ignored and couldn't cancel as they were conducted as 1 sale? Where do you learn how to get answers to questions Mercari does not address in the common questions? Thanks, Great tutorial.
I made my 1st sale today and cannot find the shipping ladle anywhere. All I find is something that says confirmed shipment and when I click on it there is no label.
I do “my listings,” select “in progress,” then “view order” on the item sold. Once there, IF YOU HAD THE BUYER PAY FOR SHIPPING, you’ll see a little blue word by the shipping information that says “reprint label.” However, if you sold the item with free shipping, you have to ship the item yourself using a third party shipping service (like pirate ship) then copying the tracking and putting it into Mercari. I hope that helps!
@@beckyparkco Thanks so much for responding. I'm in trouble. I thought I selected having to buy or pay it and I just looked back and saw that I selected free shipping by mistake. I'm totally lost now as to what I'm supposed to do.
I cant get it to scan my license properly, it just won't accept it, not sure why unless it has something to do with the fact that it has a hologram on it. I listed a couple of things with no luck either, So I never got into Mercari but you've inspired me to try again
The only thing u didn’t mention is “when u promote to yr likers only it is a 15% less amount not a 5% less amount of yr listed price fee correct?” That’s how it works for me. I’ve been selling & buying on Mecari for 2 yrs now. Please clarify this for me. Ty so much. Great video. I didn’t know about how the “smart pricing worked.” Ty so much! I’m going to do that for now on. I did know about the shipping local n the shipping the regular way. I do both. Ty so much. Great video ! ❤❤ I hope u respond to my question 🙋🏼♀️. Ty so much.
There's wayyy to many sellers and not enough buyers on Mercari. Can someone explain to me, how do you get your clothing to buyers. On Poshmark you can click the share button. There is no share button on Mercari. I just click edit and try to put my listing back on top....ughhhh I need help. The Promote button, you have to set your listing high then promote for a lower price.
Thank you for informing I’ll use your code when I start selling but I have a question. one downsize about Mercari is you cannot send pictures through chat so if the plant or other perishable has minor damage, for example, but customer lied that plant is dead on arrival and want a refund but because there is no proof of picture in that case, how do you deal with it?
I have a question. I was a new vendor and please used boys Geox shoes and my account was closed and I got email that I’m selling prohibited item. Try to contact the customer service but was getting error message. Do you know by the chance what should or I can do
Seeking Mercari help: Issue 1: I received offer for item, buyer and I reached agreed price. There wasn't "accept offer" option for me, only "decline" "counter" and "buy". As seller, why is the "accept offer" option not available? Issue 2: Same item, confirmation buyer received item. I go to rate buyer, says "I opened package and I accept item". Why does my account think I'm buyer?
I was beginning to relist some items today and noticed they just raised shipping prices again. $4.30 1st Class USPS for 4oz when I can get the same for $3.59 at pirate. I'm not putting any more effort or time relisting items or listing on Mercari. It's just to much.
Please explain how to get an item authenticated on Mercari. I have listed handbags, thinking that Mercari would automatically authenticate them, but they didn't. Is there something else I need to do?
If seller wants to ship their products, can the shipping method and shipping fee be assigned. I wanted to list a new item and I saw neither of these options. Appeared the item would have to be Free shipping if New. Thank you.
Hi can you sell food? Like cookies? From store? They removed a vey good condition car seat from my list, do you know why? I ck and people sell use car seats also. Thank you
