No worries refurbishedpanda! I will buy this tomorrow and GIN it to you at retail value. You were my first friend on Listia and so very helpful and sweet!! I feel your just being helpful and it's not fair to get verbally pushed around on here. :)
Guys calm down, that's the only amount I had at the time. Some of you guys sell stuff like coach bags and other high end make up daily, therefore making 2x credits than I do. I'm just a girl in my early 20s so I don't have much money. This site is supposed to be fun and honestly it doesn't hurt to try? I did say I was going to bid more, also she was NOT going to post the GIN. Everybody deserves a shot.
I don't understand how you think 45k was a fair offer. If people want to pay 3x as much as the store price it's their choice. But clearly I think you knew what you was offering her was low ball offer.
Kristin, all you have to do is take a picture of the palette next to your username written on a piece of paper or something, then upload it here. I think this is what she meant. It's unnecessary in my opinion, I have sold here for a bit now, and as long as you are responsive and can assure buyers you will ship the item, you're good.
When u use only internet pics then it's hard to believe u really have the item as there are scams ran on this site and they use internet photos only. People will bid more confidence seeing actual pics
Lol everybody keeps thinking my offer of 45k was unreasonable when this palette is originally $34 in stores. However, people here tend to pay 3x more in credits more than retail though, so this is definitely a good thing for you! 45k was all I had at the time, and now that I have more, I would definitely bid more on this. I'm not credit rich like some of the others here though so cut me some slack guys haha
Great auction, girl! When people comment with criticism it is usually out of jealousy/envy, and plain ol' meanness...take what you need and ignore the rest. You will learn who you can trust and who to take seriously if they leave a not so positive comment-some really are trying to help you learn what works and what does not. You have the right to ask whatever you want to if you pay the credits to set up a GIN. It depends on what you are trying to accomplish by including a GIN, and only you know that. I totally agree with danashuta. I would listen and take her last comment to heart. I am glad you are getting lots of bids in spite of all the critical comments. If 45k was all that refurbishedpanda had at the time, she was basically just throwing it out there. There are those that abuse newbies by lowballing their auctions until they figure out what is going on-it happened to me a couple of times when I joined Listia. But, I don't get the feeling that is what she was doing. It's a matter of the heart, even here on Listia. Just remember that you always reap what you sow. I don't bid on auctions if I have seen the sellers continuously making critical comments on newer Listian's auctions, or taking advantage of the fact that someone is new. And, there are a handful of Listian's who do this repeatedly. You will learn to recognize who they are. I just don't even look at their auctions. Hope some of this will help you. But, hey, you are doing a great job so far! Welcome!
I'd like to say, in refurbishedpanda's defence-after reading all of these comments, it's obvious that Refurbishedpanda was NOT trying to lowball anyone-seems more like she was just putting an offer out, and that's all she had at the time-so WHY are there people judging what they think she was doing and now it's getting to a point where someone's feeling abused-it's fair to offer what you want just like it's fair to say no thank you to that offer-I will say, however, that this auction is going waaaaaay up there and I couldn't be happier for the seller-new or not-it's great to see quality items getting high bids-
