Banned Lollishop Vendors are Getting Money Back From Paypal!!

It appears that Miss Sadie Lou went on a banning rampage and started to ban a lot of sellers on her awful site.

After reading the Lollishops Support Group, I see that a lot of vendors are filing reversal claims via Paypal to recoup their subscription fees.

As stated on the Lollishops site, all listings will remain active for a total of 6 months. Sadie has canceled listings and pocketed money. She did not allow the listings to last their full 6 month term.

Some of the vendor's paid for their subscriptions in late November. Paypal only allows 45 days after a transaction to file for reversal. One vendor spoke with a representative of Paypal on the phone and was told that since the term was a 6 month obligation that they will still register the claims. If Paypal denies the claims then vendors are able to claim their fees from their credit card company as long as it's within 90 days.

I wonder if this will bring Lollishops to bankruptcy?? I hope Sadie has a good attorney because she is definitely going to need one.

XOXO!!

Is Lollishops Dive Bombing?

After tons of complaints and hardly any sales from Lollishops, vendors are starting to close up shop.

Many of the vendors are complaining of high fees and unprofessional behavior shown by the owner.

A lot of vendors are also complaining about the favoritism shown by the owner of other vendors.

Lollishop vendors are very worried about the lack of experience the owner has. Some say she got way in over her head. From the way the site looks, people are saying stolen pics from polyvore is being used to make banners and avatars to numerous complaints on the lack of security the site has.

It seems that several Lollishop vendors were banned from the site after participating in the etsy forums. I find it quite amusing that the owner gets so upset when people talk about Lollishops in the etsy forums when she in fact USED the etsy forums to recruit the vendors! I guess no one is allowed to express an opinion until I opened this blog. So if any pissed off Lollishop vendors want to express an opinion, go right ahead! I'll make your comments public! Vendors should be able to voice an opinion about another venue. It helps in making a decision in whether or not to sell there.

There were a few discussions on the etsy message boards regarding the issues and the threads were closed. But ah yes!!! I found them! Kind of ironic how the owner completely shut down her private and public Ning sites after all this evolved. Here are the closed threads.:
