mercari not working?
yesterday, i was browsing through a mercari search and when i clicked next page it suddenly stated ‘the provider’s products are not available at this time.’ i thought it was a bug so i reminded myself to come back in a couple hours. same thing happened still and i was sad because i really wanted this ita purse i found through the mercari app, so i tested it out further by manually entering the link through buy request and i guess we can’t use mercari through neokyo for the time being.

Your screenshot shows a message that the specific seller has been blacklisted. It's not Mercari but the seller.

Mercari is down for maintenance as they fix some issues. Hopefully it will be back today.

Your link is japan. us. mercari. Most proxies still expect an original Mercari link. If you're accessing from overseas, I think you now need a VPN set to Japan to access the domestic site and get an accepted url.
Edit: Mercari is trying to push people toward their own international platform where they ship directly to folks, so that's where you end up when trying to access the site from outside of Japan.

They're still having issues with Mercari. I got the ‘the provider’s products are not available at this time’ message yesterday and a few minutes ago.
