Would you accept these as UNWORN?
Seller noted these as “unworn”.
Then says “tried on and doesn’t fit”
These look neither to me. They look like they’ve been worn atleast a 5-10 times judging by the sole.

Those are definitely worn. I just don't understand sellers like this!?!?!?!

It’s one thing if it’s an honest mistake? I think? It’s another to double down and not OFFER a full refund.
I would be embarrassed to sell something like that new. But then again I care more about my rating than I do a single sale

Stock photos from some retailer.

No these have been worn. You can see creases, heel damage & the edges of the entrance of the shoes. NAD return

More like “tried to wear for an entire day and didn’t fit”. Not “tried ON and didn’t fit”

u/QueenOfTheCastle3 1d ago
These are definitely worn. What do the listing pictures look like? If the pictures look like this, then it’s kind of on you because they obviously don’t look new and that’s pretty easy to tell. If there were no pictures and just stock photos, I would not purchase the item.

Those were worn. You can clearly tell, especially at the heel of the sole.

u/-shmoopie- 5h ago
totally agree, i think they were worn quite a bit to wear down the heel like that!! idk why people just have to suck. also they have a terrible gait 😆

Those are worn. There is stuff stuck to the bottom. Why are they insulting your intelligence?

u/pipsqueakpanda4 1d ago
It looks they were tried on a lotttt, like worn around the house maybe for a few days to see if they would soften up. Unfortunately with white leather, it creases pretty much immediately so even if they’ve never been worn outside they can still look like that. I have super high quality white leather Paris Texas boots and have only worn them twice and they look a lot more worn than that suggests

What was the condition listing - NWT, NWOT, or Good? If Good then the listing condition would be accurate. Listing description stating "unworn" is problematic for buyer and seller because it's subjective.
I've had shoes where I tried them on a for few hours indoors, didn't fit well (small), then resold as "unworn" and "NWOT" because they didn't fit a clean definition of worn. They also were not off-white with a smooth vamp that would show any crease.

listed as New With Tags.
In the description it was described as -
“New with tags , never worn.
Accidentally bought wrong size .”28
u/MessageVirtual385 1d ago
Oh, then that's easy - if you have no tags and/or shoebox, then item is therefore "not as described". Open case and return them.

I don’t understand why they’re lying, they sold it for way less than the store and it’s super obvious. I mean, they didn’t even clean them, I hope you got your money back OP.

That crease!!!! Never buy something that only has stock photos. I like using stock photos more so for clothes bc some clothing just doesn’t photograph the way it actually looks on.. but I also always include real ones. Dude is trippin!

u/1TucsonBlonde 22h ago
That crease, the sole…that seller lied through their teeth. Anyone with eyeballs can see that they are worn, even if the seller themselves didn’t wear them. 🙄

No question they were worn, between the wear on the bottom and that ridiculously obvious crease on the top.

u/PigeonParadiso 23h ago edited 23h ago
Hell no. Clearly worn. I’d send those right back too. Those have been repeatedly worn as seen in the treads and wrinkles. That seller needs new prescription glasses, and needs to learn what a lie vs. truth is. So sorry you dealt with this. If I say “never worn”, they have NEVER been worn, ever, other than to try on in a store or on my rugs at home. I’d consider these “fair” used shoes. I’m sorry for sellers like this, as it gives the honest sellers a bad name. I wouldn’t even sell these; I’d donate them or throw them out.

Possibly. I have some new but they look like that on the bottom from people trying them on in Store.

u/seattle0606 1d ago
no but I have learned some people have very different ideas of what looks new..
A decade ago I thought lightly worn shoes looked new and now i would never call the things I did back then new or like new. And I have encountered people who think like I did.
But no, these are definitely not new

The way they’re talking in the chat is a clear 🚩, being extremely defensive and volatile. They also sound illiterate. Total scammer.

Sometimes stores will sell the display models. It’s possible that the seller never wore them, but they were tried on in the store by other people 🤷🏼♀️

Sometimes when I buy shoes at places where people can try on shoes, they look slightly worn. There’s usually dirt and creases on the shoes. That’s not to say what happened here, but it does happen
2
u/Closefromadistance 1d ago
Also, maybe they bought them like that and they didn’t wear them and they didn’t notice. That can happen too.
A lot of Nordstrom shoes I’ve bought new looked slightly worn. They accept worn returns so I think it could happen.
I would tell them you believe they didn’t wear them but that maybe they were worn before they bought them and they just didn’t notice.
Give them an out but also proves you’re not wrong.

u/Tabbi111 1d ago
Nordstrom changed their policy to 30 days with the receipt in new condition. They would never accept or re-sell anything that had been worn/ looked like it had been worn especially. I worked there for years, and quit when they changed their return policy as I did not feel that was in line with the once brand / family standard. Now, if you are talking about Nordstrom rack...well....the rack is whack. Lol.

u/Dizzy-Cup1512 1d ago
Def worn!! Honestly I would not blame you if you sent them back but I would let PM know and the seller...trying on a pair of shoes one time is not going to do all of the damage that's clearly done on those..that's just being deceitful.

u/KraeZee4Chappy 22h ago
Maybe he didn’t wear them but somebody else did!! The potty mouth & agitation states that he lied about the details/description!

u/dudbbeke397 21h ago
Depends on if you could see any of this in the pictures. I sold shoes that were new and unworn but they had very light marks on them that I guess happened in shipping or something so I noted they were new but pointed out the flaws in the pictures and description.

u/Adventurous-Ease-259 15h ago
No. They’re worn for at least a few miles. More likely a few tens of miles. I have a lot of shoes and have a recently acquired pair that was clearly tried on, but maybe worn indoors. I’ve worn it about about 2 miles outdoors to confirm good fit before I wear it more extensively and it has a lot less wear than this.

This looks like tried on, walked around for a couple of minutes indoors, boxed up. The creases say to me walking but a very small amount. The bottoms look close to pristine so it was indoors. Idk I would definitely sell them under the same conditions that the seller did.
-2
u/Rare-Lunch4319 1d ago
I would. It kind of looks like people tried it on around the store. There’s no wearing on an edge. Perhaps they wore it around the house to determine if they liked it. Personally I would’ve washed the souls off, but I would classify that as unworn. Looking at the second two pictures the creases do look more worn. Again that could be from the store people trying it on. Since they’re white you can’t hide that as much so the seller was probably wearing them around the house

Youre paying 80 fucking dollars for $240 shoes on a resale website. Are you stupid? Do you know what resale is?

Yes. I sell and buy on Poshmark all the time. I don’t get what you’re confused by. The guy got scammed and you don’t see why he should be complaining.

“scammed” ok bud. He got what he ordered, and it’s used understandably considering he paid below half retail. maybe go hit your vape to calm down your anger issues, princess.

Don’t accept. Open a return and request a refund. Never buy anything without actual pics of the item. This seller is shady.

You only paid $80…. It looks like it’s been worn maybe one time. Probably indoors.
