The 10 worst users you meet on grailed.com:The guy who is either buying or selling and just won't budge. It could have 3 people following it and sitting there for 4 months and he's still not willing to come down 30 bucks on a 300 dollar item. When he's buying he offers low and then will come right up under your low price and not budge. As a seller I usually give him a week or adjust the shipping and come down. I know it's cheap but most people don't notice.The guy who's selling your grailed item. You have the money, but he just won't answer any questions on measurements or for additional pictures and you know one days it's just gonna be sold. You contemplate just buying it blind but it's too expensive to justify that. So you wait...refreshing for the inevitable heartbreak of seeing that grey out image and the sold tag.The guy who makes a solid offer that you accept and then stops to ask for more pics. The pics you send are good but he wants tagged measurement pictures to be sure. You go home on lunch to take some. He then ask for fit pics to see how it looks on someone because somehow from looking at it on your body he's gonna know. You take the fit pics and he backs out. Three days of back and forth and 49 messages later he decides it's not for him. Binding offers can't come soon enough.The inaccurate and blurry pics guy. He post shots taken from 30ft away in the dark with a game boy camera. On top of that he tries to use a filter to hide the rips. You ask for more pictures and more of the same. It's as if he's incapable of taking a single good picture of the item. Or alternatively the pic on the browse looks good then all the other pics looks like a different item they are so bad.The shady dealer. You are on grailed and he is always trying to get your cellphone number or email to try abd make the deal under the table. He promises discount after discount but you would rather have the extra protection and you know it could get you banned. You start to wonder if his items are fakes so you drop them into Google reverse image search abd there you see it. Linked on 20 different results. All fake.The going broke celrbrity. You see something pop up on your feed you've never seen before. It's an 8000 dollar leather jacket. You click out of curiosity because you know you don't have that kind of bread but you wanna read the comments. When you dive further into his store you see it. Every item listed for 5000 dollars plus. Even a chopper made it into his selling items and he's serious.The low baller. You've listed a used but good condition supreme crew neck for 80 bucks. You figure it's a solid price considering it's 8/10 and washed but not dried. It's up for two days so you drop the price to chum up some offers. That's when it happens. The first offer is some guy offering 40 dollars shipped. You stare for a moment. The ignore. Dumbfounded you tell him it's way too low abd proceeds to bitch about you stonewalling his offer when your initial price was reasonable.The collectors item seller. You peep an older pair of slightly beat js. You need some js in your rotation so you dive deeper. He had the price at 600 dollars and swears they are 8/10 "barely used" but the pics say otherwise. The sole is barely hanging on and you can see visible light shining through into the interior. It comes with no laces and he swears these are "og" authentic deadstock and all the scars will buff out.The phantom. He's got the most sought after item on grailed. 359 people have it in their fitting room. It's a pair of geobaskets in near perfect condition for 250 dollars but no instant buy option. The comments are piled up with broke boys asking "this sell yet?". His inbox had got to be overflowing but the seller is no where to be found. Might be trolling or might be dead.The sloth. You finally get a good buy on am item you've been going back and forth for on for a few days. The seller seems eager so you are pumped. You pay immediately. Three working days later he messages you with some excuse on how his babies mommas dogs house burned down and they had to do a doggy funeral. You don't want to piss him off abd lose your item so you go give him the benefit of the doubt. Three more days go by and you message him. No resoonse. The next day you ask if he's shipped and says it's in th me mail. You inquire about tracking and nothing. Three days pass abd you ask when it will arrive. He then sends you tracking and you see he just shipped it this afternoon through snail mail. Arrival date is 2 weeks. You weep. via /r/streetwear http://ift.tt/1U2ELM4
