0 STARS!! Scam for sellers. 0 STARS!!! NO SELLER PROTECTIIN!!!! I have been selling my estate online after selling my house and moving my lifelong treasures into storage and then Into a local shop since Dec 2020. In 4.5 years I have had 4 buyers say items broke, 3 showing no photi proof of actual item. Items totaled a bit over 600$. I was not once reimbursed even showing photos my shipping methods were consistent with "MERCARI'S POLICY." BUYER'S RETURN IS HONORED REGARDLESS OF REASON. I am reviewing now due to my 300$ ring sale being returned due to buyer's "Need to prioritize expenses." THERE IS NO POLICY HONORED OR SAFETY FOR SELLERS. We spend hours photographing, packaging, polishing, etc and loose or sake and often the entire worth of our item if the buyer claims it is broken as law states one cannot mail (return) broken items. LOOK DEEPER THAN TGE 0 SELLING FEES. I BELIEVE MERCARI IS PURCHASING OUR VALUABLE ITEMS AND STEALING THEM. 0 SELLING FEE, COME ON MERCARI!!!!!! PROTECT THE PEOPLE KEEPING YOU IN BUSINESS, HOWEVER WE ARE ACTUALLY DOING THIS. SCAM COMPANY! -OWLHEART111....5STAR SELLER

Scammers all the way! As a seller and buyer I will never use them again. Selling, unjustified doubling of shipping charges after sale is complete. This is called bait and switch fraud in any other context. Zero customer service. Kafka-esque circular non communication. Their new return policy is absurd. Buying, their new fees are as absurd as their new return policy.

Mercari's New Policy Sucks :)! I've had Mercari for a few months now. Purchased and sold. I'm quite honestly always on the app, looking for certain things to buy. I have only purchased one thing since the new policy because they are actually stealing from the users. Item was $50 and ended up paying $67. Shipping was only $3.99 of that cost. Outrageous fees are the norm that just randomly change. It's absolutely horrendous and a scummy platform. Use eBay or literally anything else at this point. It's not worth it until something changes.

Seller beware! Seller beware!! I sold an authentic perfume which I have a receipt for proving it came from an authorized retailer. Upon receiving it the buyer claimed it was fake based only on it "not smelling right" and asked Mercari for a refund/return. Mercari said they were initiating a "review". There is no way to contact Mercari or add your side of the story to the review. Within a couple hours they ruled that the item was "not as listed" despite buyer images looking exactly like my listing images so clearly it was the same item I was advertising for sale. Mercari did not reach out to me for my evidence, side of the story, or proof of authenticity, which I would have happily provided. So the buyer is returning it after using some of it. I am out the cost of my packaging materials, and now have an item with less product in it that has been deemed inauthentic by Mercari despite being 100% legit. Glad it was an inexpensive item that I learned my lesson on.

I have twice purchased items on Mercari… I have twice purchased items on Mercari & I didn’t receive either one. The first time was many years ago & the seller immediately refunded me, admitting she had been unable to send the item. For my recent purchase, the seller is not responding & since it was over 4 days since the order was marked fulfilled by her, Mercari won’t help me. YOU ONLY FOUR DAYS!!
