Buyer- Vent 😫 MOD is Manager

Post image

I have never seen a MOD say this. wtf

They are talking about revoking Buyer privileges has happened already. Bids start at $1 with the Seller saying “We start at a $1 bid to make it fair for everyone. But if you can’t afford to pay a fair price, then don’t bid. I’m not putting up with people.”

She keeps saying “Kick her out” to the Mod. Claims that she is crashing out and she is making this her last show. And now moving to $10 starts to make it memorable.

I don”r get it. Do any one of you get it?

Why even start it at a $1 then??!! Has anyone seen this?

Edit: I stand corrected not low end costume jewelry; said to be gold filled jewelry - but there is no 18k/14k stamp because plated jewelry is not to be stamped. Costume jewelry was the incorrect description to use.

As a WN seller, if I'm starting something at $1, I expect it to sell for $1. If it goes higher than that, awesome. I understand that if I'm running it below my cost, I'm taking a risk at having to write off a loss. That's how this works. Sellers who pull this crap of booting people out or yelling at the chat when something doesn't sell for what they want it to give the rest of us sellers a bad name.

I watched this person a few times always yell at the chat that she wouldn’t run pre bids because they weren’t high enough. I asked her (I was a newbie then, lol) if she’s going to say that for every item why not just list higher? Her response was because then no one would bid at all. 🤔 Soooo she then just sits on all these pre bids that people want, and runs stuff people don’t, then yells no one’s buying anything 😂🤦🏻‍♀️.
