is Marrkt a reputable seller?

[sabergirl]

Well, yes. That’s what I was referring to. I try to stay out of that stuff when it goes down, but I’m always watching

[goosehd]

@sabergirl I still love Adam313’s approach to it and kind of miss him for it…

[sabergirl]

Haha, yeah. Didn’t he sort of storm off in a huff because of a situation like this? I’m truthfully not sure what happened, but I definitely miss him around here.

Adam once made an offer on a pair of xhs I had for sale only to find out during the PayPal stage that he was paying a lot than he had thought. He was very cool about following through though and the interaction with him was great. Bet he’s put some amazing fades into that pair.

Adam was my first ever Forum Friend way back ,and to this day I still communicate with him through Instagram. He seems to be doing well. Also not sure why he left the Forum after he was reinstated.

[Giles]

He got reinstated numerous times and always overstepped the mark, which is why he was either banned or banned himself. I think that he is probably a nice guy and I have a lot of his art in our house, but the effort he took to moderate was enormous, And frankly, life is too short.....

@Giles I said to Bonnie,yesterday, that I feel that there should be a rule that if you make it to 70(My age) you should no longer be allowed to say “Life is short” You still got time!

[Matt]

Not to further derail this thread, but coincidentally I met him for lunch today. We had a nice time. Have some items related to our meet up that I’ll post in the appropriate threads.

[sabergirl]

That’s cool, Matt! I hope he’s doing well ️

[goosehd]

I’m glad he’s doing well and you had a chance to meet up with him @Matt Also glad that you’re staying in touch with him via instagram @Jett129

[Oaktavia]

I stay in touch with Adam too on Instagram. He always has a lot to say. I think he just wanted a break from here on the forum. He still reads through threads and refers to them on occasion.

Has anyone sold stuff through Marrkt? What was your experience? Did it take long to sell?

I have a truckload of stuff to sell and cannot get jazzed enough to list it myself.

[goosehd]

@Bridger We have a marketplace that you can sell your goods. You can always try there.

[Bridger]

Thanks @goosehd.

I have listed a few things on here and never sold a thing and had hardy any bites. My sizes are 30 waist and hemmed jeans, XS jackets and S shirts - so I don't think this helps matters.

The effort to list so many things is also a motivational barrier for me.

[goosehd]

@Bridger I don't know what to tell you then. Maybe try Markkt and see if it works for you by doing a couple of test sales. Only you will be able to tell if their system is more amenable to what you want to accomplish.

Somone else's previous experience may not meet your expectations only leading to disappointment.

[Bridger]

That's good advice @goosehd, thanks!

Marrkt are reputable (as I recall they owner used to run the UK Real McCoys setup), but they will take a significant cut - about 40% I think. Personally I'd just list on eBay, but if your time is worth the 40% go ahead.

[T4920]

My only issue with marrkt is their extremely lapse measurements. I've bought IH there confidently as I can check forum threads for accurate sizing info, but with everything else I'm very reluctant to take the risk.

[FelixK]

I have put a few pieces from Drake's on there, and they all sold within the first two weeks. Like @NickD said, 40% is a hard pill to swallow, but if you're based in the UK and have loads of stuff, it might be worth the covenience
