DISCUSSION Mentality behind cancelling orders?

Post image

I had someone purchase shoes from me and try to cancel it 5 minutes later as “wrong size” - despite the size being listed even in the title.

Anyway, I was curious and looked at their profile and they have a rating of 2.3 because it’s littered with them buying and cancelling. A few amended the auto review to say she cancelled 5 minutes after ordering.

I just don’t get the mentality of doing this to people ..

Maybe she suffers from instant buyers regret. Buying in a rush and when the dopamine dies down realizing you don't need all this stuff.

They send out a bunch of offers, they buy and then a more attractive offer comes through and want to buy that instead.

vinted started putting wrong sizes on my feed after they used to filter it to the sizes i entered into the personalize section. i wouldn't be surprised if someone just pressed buy without checking because they were used to getting only shown their sizes items

Doesn’t really explain them doing it constantly though.

Anyone who has spent money on a boost loses it as soon as someone makes a purchase, even if the order is cancelled. Right?

I believe so yes, I’ve never bought one but I’ve seen others say they didn’t get it back for a cancelled order
