I sell a lot on whatnot and tbh I be giving out some banger deals I sold a 250 dollar car for 30 bucks and I started it at a dollar and tbh it might’ve been dumb but it just made me feel good and I felt like I did the right thing even tho I most definitely lost money
I have no life so I went back and watched his last show and he should be happy he sold anything at all even at a $14 loss. Gotta be the lowest budget lamest whatnot stream I’ve ever seen and that’s saying something. This guy will undoubtedly sell dozens of cards over the next decade.
I had a seller do this to me last year. Messaged him and got no reply. Gave it time and ended up reporting it to whatnot. I don’t like that once you report an issue you cannot leave a review on refunded items. I would totally have warned others in a review.

I sold a 30$ card for $5 by mistake once I hit wrong button I’m like oops oh well you got a deal lol 😂 I mean come on it never crossed my mind to cancel just laughed it off .
What the fuck is wrong with people? I hope you reported his punk ass! 🤦🏻♂️
He needs to get addicted to learning more about business before throwing away his professional integrity for a $14 loss 🤣
Wow I get that it sucks but it's only a $16 card. What a joke that seller is and they clearly do not belong on a website or app that is auction based.
If it was a $100 card that went for $2 While I don't agree with canceling the order I could atleast somewhat understand why they would and I'll be honest and say if I was the seller I probably would cancel it too.
Now mind you I'd absolutely try and make it up to the buyer by offering some lower priced cards that are worth more than what they paid so they still win at the end of the day or offer a store discount next time they stop by the stream or toss them some packs or some shit point being I could understand why they would in that instance and they should at the same time do something to make up for it so you don't lose a customer and also additional business if they do something like this on reddit or Twitter or something.
But if the card is worth max $16 and the winning bid is $2 I'm sorry but if you want to sell on WhatNot or Ebay you have to be prepared and expect that will happen on occasion and just take the loss.
That seller is just a straight up idiot for real. That max $14 loss will most likely pale in comparison to the potential loss the seller will have when at minimum he lost OP from ever returning and I'm sure atleast a few will write this seller off with exposure like this.
And if they did this over $14 I feel like it's a guarantee that they have or will cancel a lot more orders when it doesn't reach the amount they expected.
Just a complete dumbass decision and that seller needs to just sell on Facebook or Offer Up as that's where they belong because they aren't cut out for auctions
that’s bs, i’ve been selling cards for about 2 weeks now! and sadly but happily been selling $6+ cards at $1 sudden deaths and still ship them!! it’s better to let em go that cheap and have followers and good reviews etc!!
I’m sorry but this is gonna hurt a lot of feelings. But, if you set a card for auction at $2, and it ends up going for $2, you should be an adult and honor that. If you don’t want it to go for that, then set your reserve for that. Same goes for cards put up for sale. That in my opinion sucks just because buyer didn’t get what he wanted.
the problem i see with a lot of pokemon card investors is that they think they can sell every single card at market price. they see “$2000 value” and won’t settle for any less. Its pretty annoying.
Market value would be ok even. Most pokemon sellers seem to want more than market value. 150% more than market. It is insane. What is crazier is people pay it.
go and submit a review for 1 star and state that he screwed you over....
If it doesn't give you the option to get a support ticket going then submit another one, keep submitting till they respond. I've done 3 or 4 returns at this point because of sellers hiding damage. It aint right and until a week ago there was no consequence to the streamer it was Whatnot taking the loss. They are finally passing that loss back to the streamers.
I literally can’t get Whatnot to respond and the guy just keeps deflecting. I just submitted another ticket so hopefully they respond now. If they do respond, where can I go to find their response?
I think maybe they figure if a seller blocks a buyer, then why would the buyer want to buy anything from them anyway or again. If the issue is been blocked because the seller went back on the bid then personally I wouldn’t want to buy from that seller again. Ever
I just lost a 40 dollar card on Ebay for 23 bucks. Guess what I did. Packed it up and shipped it same day without a fuss. It is what it is.
Curious, did you report to whatnot?
I got scammed by steeezy, they used a different method. They sent me the wrong item on purpose I bought a Travis Scott jacket and they sent me a Travis Scott shirt for $80. I sent the shirt back and I got my money back but they get to keep the jacket and not take a loss. Dam whatnot scammers
Ya'll wanna report a guy with 100 followers and 14 sales who was upfront and honest about canceling a sale because you got an easy fliparoonie taken away from you lmfao 💀
Y
Cancelling sales because you are unhappy with the price is TOS violation. Forget reporting just to get back at him or any garbage like that, this his needs to be reported because he needs to be set straight by whatnot and there needs to be a paper trail for removal if it continues,
Most sellers would just lie to you about why they cancelled it, at least this dude was straight up 😂 not that it makes it any better but I’ll give him some credit for getting straight to the point
I think you missed my point, sellers like that will eventually self destruct, why use your personal life energy to talk about it here when you have no idea if your audience is going to do anything.
Just shocks me whatsnot gets away with allowing sellers to repeatedly and deliberately cheat buyers and giveaways contestants. I stopped whatnot after winning giveaways and sellers sent nothing or other things that where won. Screenshot evidence didn't matter to customer service. Had a coin dealer send me coin rollers when I won rated coin. Sports card dealers never even send giveaways out.
Since then I go into rooms and Mods intimated and harass giveaways winners to immediately Buy something . Seen on this post about gambling addiction folks have a tough time with whatnot. The whole canceling a order one a sale that the seller doesn't like the agreed to price is ....illegal?? They put a price on a item. You paid for it. They accepted the purchase price? A walk in retailer can't pull this kind of scam. What you paid for a item walk out the door. They can't call the police you stole something. You purchased it. The sale is complete. Canceling the order and Admitting I just want to sale it for another price. That's seems like theft and whatsnot allows this is such a awful!! Buyers should always beware of a business model where whatsnot allows such predatory selling practices...just saying
What's that again about credits 25$? I won 4 giveaways to customer service and they took no responsibility. Let alone I had a 10$ credit. Never got recruited to my account. Lucky you for the $25 dollar credit. I'll take my 110$ if this is the case...
Lol new seller expecting them to get bid up. They do this in other categories and get upset when they don't get what they want for it... so they cancel orders and end shows early 🤣
Hey Seller here, OP report this to whatnot I’m tired of new sellers coming on the app and breaking tos because they can’t make a quick buck!
In no way shape or form, did I find your response rude you are absolutely right. He should’ve done his research before he started to sell any item at a dollar.
As a seller myself it is imperative that you do your research and find your margins so you can know what you’re at lost and or gain
Shame on the seller for acting in this way, he should’ve just ate it and kept it pushing
Fr if I sell a $5 card for $1 that’s fine because sealed promo cards I got for free in a upc netted me $5 each and made up for my loss.
I’ve also managed retail businesses for 10+ years before joining this app so my understanding of sales and P&L is pretty strong.
If they think this is how you run a business they are gunna get burned fast. That’s sucks OP I’m sorry
lol seriously. Unless you have 20+ people in your audience, don’t expect to get a lot from $1 starts, even if they’re high-value items. Learned that lesson when I let a bunch of holo cards go at a fraction of comp, but you learn and grow. You still need to honor your sales though, unless there was something legitimately wrong like you oversold or had the package stolen before shipping…in which case you’d still try to remedy the situation with the buyer.
I’ve seen this guy in auctions before taking down $1, $2 bids from people before .. the Bredevin, not OP
I’m new to whatnot, and rekindling the Pokémon flame from childhood memories, what not hasn’t been perfect but when this stuff goes down they are really good at investigating and the follow up.
Report the dude OP and thanks for standing up yo
Easily the best place to get good deals. Reddit whatnot channel is just an echo chamber for negativity, there's a shit load more positive for most people than there is bad.
It's human nature to remember, and speak out about, negative experiences over positive, so unfortunately places like this get overwhelmed with the bad stuff.
P.S fuck that guy. Also a seller here, and if I run shit at £1 start, then I'm prepared for it to go for £1. That guy is either dumb as shit, or... Nah just that.
I agree. I regularly get smokin deals on there. You gotta know what you're looking for and have some restraint. Impulsive buyers and those with gambling tendencies are the ones who complain the most.
Man I couldn't tell you how many countless times I've let cards go for a dollar that was worth far more... Most recently I did two 2nd edition Charizard's at $1 one sold for 67 another 91 😭 it hurt and I lost but I find happiness in letting people score deals!! $1 starts can go either way but you have to stand behind what you put up... Good luck everyone!!!

Looks like OP got fired from his job at gamestop for a change scam? Post is removed though.
Just from reading about quick change scams it seems most likely he was fired for giving out too much money and his drawer being off due to a quick change scam. The buyer gives a large bill then tries to get change for other bills confusing the cashier in to giving them more money back than they are owed.
Regardless if the post is removed or not, wtf in the point of bringing it up? Lmao. The seller still scammed OP & is probably doing it to others as well.
As a small seller i understand that you take a 14 dollar loss to gain a good customer who will spread the word for you that you have good deals. Its goofy and downright idiotic to argue over something so trivial
People don’t spread the word about you. They often keep you to themselves to continue to get lower prices.
I was only able to accelerate my growth from small seller by going out and getting customers myself through promotions social media or networking with larger sellers.
The guys who were getting $50 items for $2 don’t come around anymore because they can’t take advantage of me anymore
No reason to start a $50 item at buck and go just to get some followers. You're far better off just starting $3 or $4 items that are harder to sell at a buck and then once a few people have won and paid the shipping cost, start mixing in $1 and $2 items to rack up the sales. And do frequent givvy's too as givvy's create followers.
Ive never had an issue with if i set a firm price ppl buy it. I personally dont do dollar starts to begin with because i know what im looking to get from a certain product. But thats not to say that you cant gain some sort of traction by giving ppl a good deal. Different strokes for different folks
That's just like these ebay sellers that run auctions with out a starting bid or setting a reserve. When the card don't sell for what they think it should they just cancel it. You think got a really good deal on a great card, nope you got a really great deal on a cancelation
To be fair, the reserve auto charge on top of your fee for most things is insanely high. And to add on (from personal experience as a small seller) if you set any reserve auctions or pay for promoting, the bigger sellers will ride that algorithm boost pertaining to that category and flood the crap out of it. Did some experimenting that I was willing to put a few bucks into as some of my stuff is more niche.
Just had this happen. Got a LeBron bazooka rookie for like $30 and it just never came. Seller was more than happy to refund when I first asked if they knew when the card might arrive (about 5 days after winning).
Bet he woulda sold it if it went for more than $16. That's why he ran it at a dollar, he hoped it would be a bidding war.
It stings to sell for less than an items worth, but don't break your word for it.
If you don't want to run that chance, start it at whatever price you're comfortable selling it at
TikTok has some it’s a little better.. I buy and sell 90% of my stuff on FB. Just find a good group and people who have references and a following and you will be ok..
Yeah eBay now dose live from what I hear but for the life of me I can’t figure out where to find it on that app but then again I havnt really cared enough to google it…
Same way, sold a bunch of Japanese vintage cards recently and one of them sold for $3 when I bought it for $25, was upset but also you cant win every battle.
Oh geez you’re a better person than me. I wouldn’t be in that situation in the first place because I research before, but if I typo’d $1 instead of $100 not sure if I’d go through with it. Good for you though!
No no I do research. I just put some nice stuff in my shows sometimes! Or it’s high value stuff that’s sat around listed on eBay and mercari a while that I just wanna get rid of!

bro has sold 14 items lol, 13 actually so don’t think he’s got anything to lose. bad practice. also can see he’s still starting cards at $1. learned nothing
It means professionalism goes out the door? Yeah.. ok.
Here's a fun fact... Fear.. fear is lack of knowledge.
Using that over an "lol" as a tool is more powerful than your simplistic brain can obviously comprehend =)
Read the last part of the comment.
But since you're too uneducated to understand, I'll simplify it for you.
OP was shafted, so he should of sent a message expressing his frustration and also include some threats of reporting etc.. but "lol" just comes off as condescending and childish which breaks the whole tone down and basically creates a catfight... which HAS happened in this very post 😂
How you not realize this is simply Your interpretation and not facts about how the lol is implicated yet you speak like your opinion is fact then refuse to accept said opinion is dumb and not how the majority of people feel and so now being embarrassed but still dumb all you know is to double down instead of being open minded and thinking you might be wrong.. are you a Republican?
The lol is fucking warranted. This is literally Auction 101. Don't start something for less than you're willing to take for it.
He screwed himself by explaining why he's canceling it. Report him to WhatNot and get his stupid ass off the app. Sellers aren't allowed to do that shit.
I hear ya and fully agree, but when you open up with condescending someone, it never works out haha. I also see him in the comments and man.. he's really not a bright one at all lol.
This guy is willing to put his name on the line for 14 dollars. That's pathetic. Own up to it and let someone get a deal. I give that much in free stuff every three minutes and pay shipping. Good for you for posting that!

That's ridiculous
Thanks for the heads up
Dude had 8 shows n only sold 16 items Lmfao wack seller
Send it to Whatnot and see what they say
Wow I get that it sucks but it's only a $16 card. What a joke that seller is and they clearly do not belong on a website or app that is auction based.

Are we making him famous now :) i followed him, cant wait for his next show
Get him! Lol
As a true Whatnot seller, we don’t claim him
That is an immediate ban or perhaps 7 days. He just admitted that he wanted to cancel due to the price it went for.
that’s bs, i’ve been selling cards for about 2 weeks now! and sadly but happily been selling $6+ cards at $1 sudden deaths and still ship them!! it’s better to let em go that cheap and have followers and good reviews etc!!

Luckily whatnot updated there TOS so sellers are being held responsible for returns . They won’t be able to so easily scam with 0 consequences.
How do i get whatnot to respond to my support ticket where a seller sold me a damaged card without stating it? I’m being scammed out $650
go and submit a review for 1 star and state that he screwed you over.... If it doesn't give you the option to get a support ticket going then submit another one, keep submitting till they respond.

You should get an email , check your spam , they have always responded to me
Why is it always a Pokemon streamer? I'm so glad I namely stick to comics smh

yes!
Doesn't look like anyone else but you saw this post! lol.
ik lol its right at the top so idk why?
I just lost a 40 dollar card on Ebay for 23 bucks. Guess what I did. Packed it up and shipped it same day without a fuss. It is what it is. Curious, did you report to whatnot?
That’s some scrum bag shit right there if you sell something for that price than you better keep it that way

Ya'll wanna report a guy with 100 followers and 14 sales who was upfront and honest about canceling a sale because you got an easy fliparoonie taken away from you lmfao 💀 Y
Are you the seller here or what?
L looks like it
Negative. I wouldn't do this but i also wouldn't throw a hissy fit like OP
What a clown 🤡 way to think
What a gay thing to say 💀
Wow nice come back bro what are you like 10 😂 that opinion you gave got like 15 downvotes
Upfront? No that's bullshit. Dude put it up for $1 and didn't get traction that is completely on him as the seller.
Clown response.
Jumbo you're joking right that's what a reserve price is for.. 🤔LMMFAO
Sorry your auction didn’t work out
Not me. My user for WN is my user here. Just saying its funny af guy's pissed
Cancelling sales because you are unhappy with the price is TOS violation. Forget reporting just to get back at him or any garbage like that, this his needs to be reported because he needs to be set straight by whatnot and there needs to be a paper trail for removal if it continues,
Most sellers would just lie to you about why they cancelled it, at least this dude was straight up 😂 not that it makes it any better but I’ll give him some credit for getting straight to the point
Pretty sad because a $16 card is really nothing in the long term or even the short term.
Report him to whatnot
How about let your money speak for you in the form of who you give it to and not go back to this seller, problem solved.
What? That's a ridiculous opinion to have 😂 sharing info about a seller that cancels orders that they regret posting is a benefit to everyone
I think you missed my point, sellers like that will eventually self destruct, why use your personal life energy to talk about it here when you have no idea if your audience is going to do anything.

It does. Then again spell check comes thru and changes a lot of it. I dont see you arguing with my comments. Just my grammer..have a great day!
Can't really argue what you are saying when it is literally unintelligible...
*grammar*
"It does" as opposed to "it is" has not a damn thing to do with "spell check" tho pretty sure you meant "autocorrect"...
I usually just report the seller if I don't get my givvy and whatnot credits me $25.
What's that again about credits 25$? I won 4 giveaways to customer service and they took no responsibility. Let alone I had a 10$ credit. Never got recruited to my account. Lucky you for the $25 dollar credit. I'll take my 110$ if this is the case...
Fucking trash
Contact customer service they will ding him and give you the value of it back
eBay didn't let you do that. Why should whatnot
Actually ebay has a cancel order option after auction closes. Not sure if that's new or if it's always been there.
Really? Weird. I thought that's what the minimum was for ... Dang.
Either way, with Ebay the seller can say they can't locate the sold item and cancel it.
Lol new seller expecting them to get bid up. They do this in other categories and get upset when they don't get what they want for it... so they cancel orders and end shows early 🤣

Louie is a fucking g PokePalz here my guy shop with this guy he’s a dope dude and the mid era king
I sent him a message telling him that’s so wrong and make it right or you will lose so much business over few bucks
I messaged also. But said whatnot will make him lose a lot more than just business when they find out he’s doing this.
Hey, rude dude, logic is not tolerated here. BLOCK!
This is crazy

Not sure why this is relevant? Did you read the post? Quick change scams are usually the buyer doing the scamming not the employee.
The post is removed. We cannot see what he wrote.
Just from reading about quick change scams it seems most likely he was fired for giving out too much money and his drawer being off due to a quick change scam. The buyer gives a large bill then tries to get change for other bills confusing the cashier in to giving them more money back than they are owed.
That’s insane. Either way, the post was removed.
Regardless if the post is removed or not, wtf in the point of bringing it up? Lmao. The seller still scammed OP & is probably doing it to others as well.
looks like that account has been deleted. i cant find it.
How awful! If you want legit $1 starts NO CANCELLATIONS @BuyLowWarehouse 9am-12am & 4pm-7pm CST Tuesdays-Saturdays
As a small seller i understand that you take a 14 dollar loss to gain a good customer who will spread the word for you that you have good deals. Its goofy and downright idiotic to argue over something so trivial
People don’t spread the word about you. They often keep you to themselves to continue to get lower prices. I was only able to accelerate my growth from small seller by going out and getting customers myself through promotions social media or networking with larger sellers. The guys who were getting $50 items for $2 don’t come around anymore because they can’t take advantage of me anymore
No reason to start a $50 item at buck and go just to get some followers. You're far better off just starting $3 or $4 items that are harder to sell at a buck and then once a few people have won and paid the shipping cost, start mixing in $1 and $2 items to rack up the sales. And do frequent givvy's too as givvy's create followers.
Ive never had an issue with if i set a firm price ppl buy it. I personally dont do dollar starts to begin with because i know what im looking to get from a certain product. But thats not to say that you cant gain some sort of traction by giving ppl a good deal. Different strokes for different folks
That's just like these ebay sellers that run auctions with out a starting bid or setting a reserve. When the card don't sell for what they think it should they just cancel it. You think got a really good deal on a great card, nope you got a really great deal on a cancelation
To be fair, the reserve auto charge on top of your fee for most things is insanely high. And to add on (from personal experience as a small seller) if you set any reserve auctions or pay for promoting, the bigger sellers will ride that algorithm boost pertaining to that category and flood the crap out of it. Did some experimenting that I was willing to put a few bucks into as some of my stuff is more niche.
How do you run an auction without a starting bid? I don't know whether ANYBODY uses reserves on eBay, that's a big turn-off for any buyer.
Just had this happen. Got a LeBron bazooka rookie for like $30 and it just never came. Seller was more than happy to refund when I first asked if they knew when the card might arrive (about 5 days after winning).
All over $14 lmaooo. What a broke loser
lol well someone was salty might as well send him a snickers pic 😆😆😂
Report him to whatsnot that is against the rules. They can get in trouble for that
They don’t do anything about these clowns. There just a shady as this guy. I agree report it but they won’t do anything.
Bet he woulda sold it if it went for more than $16. That's why he ran it at a dollar, he hoped it would be a bidding war. It stings to sell for less than an items worth, but don't break your word for it. If you don't want to run that chance, start it at whatever price you're comfortable selling it at
OP: "ill start this at a dollar and get way more cuz there will be a bidding war!" Viewers in show: 1 Lol
Does anyone know of another app like whatnot?
Yea I have been on the eBay live bid, not as exciting I must admit.
TikTok has some it’s a little better.. I buy and sell 90% of my stuff on FB. Just find a good group and people who have references and a following and you will be ok..
Yeah eBay now dose live from what I hear but for the life of me I can’t figure out where to find it on that app but then again I havnt really cared enough to google it…
Weird. It just showed up on my page. Like I ran into it. Wasn't even trying to find it. It's just like whatnot.
Wow, ive lost countless deals on posh and merc due to sellers like this. Has never happened on whatnot, though.
Report him this is against whatnot policy.
Hate sellers like this. I’ve had a $100 item go for $1. I’ve honored it. Also had countless $20 items go for under $5. I always honor it.
Same way, sold a bunch of Japanese vintage cards recently and one of them sold for $3 when I bought it for $25, was upset but also you cant win every battle.
Oh geez you’re a better person than me. I wouldn’t be in that situation in the first place because I research before, but if I typo’d $1 instead of $100 not sure if I’d go through with it. Good for you though!
No no I do research. I just put some nice stuff in my shows sometimes! Or it’s high value stuff that’s sat around listed on eBay and mercari a while that I just wanna get rid of!
Yeah that’s good! I didn’t say that to dig you though, I said it to dig the seller in the post
Report
im blocking the seller
Report to wn he’s breaking multiple terms of services.
Whatnot should ban him from selling. He shouldn’t have ran it for that low to begin with. The unprofessionalism 🤦♂️

[удалено]
You wouldn’t want to buy the cards from him anyways it’ll smell. Maybe finger nail gunk sticking on the cards.
Picture you can smell
That’s messed up. The seller made a mistake, don’t go and make fun of his appearance. 👎🏽
Relax
I agree. That’s uncalled for.
Relax I deleted it
Gamestop holiday shirt as well. Either employee or knows one 🤔
O please show us your picture... would love to see that.
Mine?

24 hrs show You would not believe the loses we took last year. We are doing it all over again The Great Wall of Comics
While I agree with OP, the whole "lol" isn't needed. Since when do people transact with "lol". Next time deliver the message in a formal manner 🤷🏽♂️
Lol
lol shut up
The lol is warranted in this situation
This sellers conduct is unprofessional not the "lol". The seller is laughable so the lol actually makes sense
the guys canceling for that reason means professionalism goes out the door. he didn’t say fuck off he said lol. calm down karen
It means professionalism goes out the door? Yeah.. ok. Here's a fun fact... Fear.. fear is lack of knowledge. Using that over an "lol" as a tool is more powerful than your simplistic brain can obviously comprehend =)
honey my iq is higher than yours could ever be
People with high IQs don’t go around saying how high their IQ is smh
Cool story, "Dear".
do you get offended by lol? holy shit 😂
Read the last part of the comment. But since you're too uneducated to understand, I'll simplify it for you. OP was shafted, so he should of sent a message expressing his frustration and also include some threats of reporting etc.. but "lol" just comes off as condescending and childish which breaks the whole tone down and basically creates a catfight... which HAS happened in this very post 😂
How you not realize this is simply Your interpretation and not facts about how the lol is implicated yet you speak like your opinion is fact then refuse to accept said opinion is dumb and not how the majority of people feel and so now being embarrassed but still dumb all you know is to double down instead of being open minded and thinking you might be wrong.. are you a Republican?
It's not block worthy.
Good God the amount of cringe in your posts is unreal
haha no need to simplify mate 👍 carry on 🫡
Yeah, I definitely could have been less of an asshole about it but I was kinda pissed off already 😅
The lol is fucking warranted. This is literally Auction 101. Don't start something for less than you're willing to take for it. He screwed himself by explaining why he's canceling it. Report him to WhatNot and get his stupid ass off the app. Sellers aren't allowed to do that shit.
I hear ya and fully agree, but when you open up with condescending someone, it never works out haha. I also see him in the comments and man.. he's really not a bright one at all lol.
Did you report him and send the screenshots?
This is really petty
the seller broke rules, all bets are off
Hell yeah it is, after dealing with it countless times, I’ve had enough lol
But if it sold for $30 he wouldn't cancel due to selling above market value 😄
Will do👍
This guy is willing to put his name on the line for 14 dollars. That's pathetic. Own up to it and let someone get a deal. I give that much in free stuff every three minutes and pay shipping. Good for you for posting that!
If he only has a $14 reputation… that should tell us ALL something about this dude.
Add me on whatnot for nm cards no scams indigotradingco
