I sold them a bag and it was received on June 25,2024 and the payment was supposed to be received in a few days. I keep emailing them and they keep telling me that in 3-6 business days the payment will be released and nothing still. No where in the site does it state that it takes 3-6 days to release payment. Nor has this happened before.Business Response
Date: 07/03/2024
The site says a 'few business days from when the item is accepted' which is generally seen as 3 or more. We are working to update the site to be more specific by stating '3-6 business days'. We are also trying to work with Paypal to improve the experience for our customers. ****** has made several changes lately that has slowed the process of money into the account.Initial Complaint

Sent my *********** bag to sell. bag borrow and steal send that i sent a fake *********** bag and claims they will research what happened. I ask about details about how my package arrived, do they have footage of them opening my package pulling out the bag, what is the little paper say next to the brown fake bag. Previously I have sent another LV bag that *** lost so I have 2 problems and doesn't that seem weird? So please investigate it. They promise 5 days, 1 more week, 1 more week. And 2 months go by and not even contacting me with updates. They have no evidence, no footage, no pictures. They just say nothing is wrong and I sent the wrong bag. *** asks them to send pictures of package and bagborrowsteal do not send them any pictures. And ** for some reason bagborrowsteal sent me a.return slip- *** claims bagborrowsteal is the owner and will not talk to me. The bag was quoted $800. They left me in the dark. I wouldn't be this angry if they had proof and kept me updated.Business Response

We completely understand the frustration as we are also frustrated with this issue. The first submission never arrived and the second one arrives with a different bag. Both items were shipped using *** so we had to work with them to do a thorough investigation of what happened. Once the investigation completed, we paid out the customer. While we appreciate that it took a long time, the issue was ultimately resolved.Customer Answer

I placed an order early this morning that successfully went through for two items. Later this morning they emailed me saying that they had canceled my order and re-listed the items on the website to rebuy. It looks like they resisted the items for a much higher price. I would like the company to fulfill their commitment to their customers and fulfill the orders that have successfully gone through.Business Response
Date: 02/24/2023
Unfortunately, the items in question were not actually available. We experienced an issue with our international warehouse where several items were listed, but were not available. It took us a few hours to figure out what was occurring, so the customer was told to simply re-order the items -which was not possible.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Once the order was cancelled, the authorization was voided.

Complaint: 19455598
I am rejecting this response because:You falsely offered me an option to re-purchase bags that I could not repurchase. I expect for my order to be filled with items that are exactly in the same description with the same price and have them sent to me.
Sincerely,
*******************************Business Response
Date: 03/03/2023
While we appreciate the frustration the customer had with our technical issue, our terms and conditions clearly indicate that we reserve the right to cancel any order prior to delivery. Once we realized the bag was not available, we voided the customers authorization and provided them with a 20% off discount to use on future transaction.Customer Answer
Date: 03/08/2023
Complaint: 19455598
I am rejecting this response because:The offer on the website was for 25% not 20%, and the email was only 20%. I expect to have the same quality of bag shipped to me at the same price point that I would have paid.
Sincerely,
*******************************Business Response

I apologize for any confusion. When the customer placed the order, they are required to select that they accept the Terms and Conditions. As stated in our last response, the Terms and Conditions indicate that: "Bag Borrow or Steal reserves the right to cancel any order at any time prior to delivery to the customer. In the event an order is canceled, the funds authorized or charged are released by Bag Borrow or Steal and are then subject to the rules of your financial institution, in determining the time that you will have the funds back." - *********************************************************
Since the order was cancelled prior to shipment, we simply voided the authorization. No funds were ever captured by our bank for the transaction.
The customer was also provided a 20% off coupon to use at any future time as recognition for any inconvenience that occurred.

I am rejecting this response because: what was responded to my message was a copy and paste of an earlier message not addressing anything that I said. I also have found a ton of price discrepancies on the website as well as pictures of one brand inside of another brands listing. Im very concerned. I have video and photographic proof, some items are too large to attach above.
Sincerely,
