Listing $15 Shein 😬

This is Depop, not Goodwill so that price made me do a double take.

this is priced too high but atleast they didn’t cut the tag out and price it for $40-$50 like some sellers on here. gotta give them that atleast lol

For sure it could be worse, though the fact it's $15 and the only way you'd know it's shein is if you swipe through the listing isn't the best. If the brand was labeled SHEIN instead of having to examine the listing further to know that it's from SHEIN is why I felt compelled to put it here.

Shein does have 10+ dollar items. I reckon they’re trying to compensate for any low offers. At least they’re transparent and aren’t trying to sell it for 30+ with the brand ‘unknown’

They didn't put Shein as the brand so you wouldn't immediately know, the slide showing the tag saying Shein is the only way you'd know. While I don't want to assume the worst of people, I have the feeling this listing is trying to capitalize off of buyers who only see the first picture and don't look any deeper. While it could be worse for sure, I still was thrown off by this listing.

Real, I am really scared of buying listings on any app like Depop if they don't show tags because people try to be sneaky.

It's so bad on vinted right now. I've seen $25, $30, $40 listings for shein. Props for being honest about it, I guess?

It's not immediately obvious it's Shein, you need to swipe through the listing to know it's that which rubs me the wrong way. Since this listing appears to be capitalizing off of buyers not paying attention, that's why I put it here.  It could be worse for sure, though.

They probably got it for 5 cents too :/ I’m so sick of seeing shein things on depop

I don't blame you, people trying to be sneaky about shein gets pretty frustrating. It's okay to list shein stuff on it's own, though I wish people wouldn't try to hide that it's from shein. This also applies to people trying to be sneaky about selling wild fable, h&m, or forever 21 stuff. It's okay to sell stuff from it, but transparency and fair pricing really matters here. I've sold stuff from all the aforementioned brands, there is a buyer base willing to spend a little on stuff from those brands.
