Have any others been mucked about with Reverb.com over their account/listings?

I had my account suspended straight after I received an offer for one of my listings and although it has been reinstated upon my appeal, it seems that the terms and payments options have now been weighted towards Reverb Pay and I cannot re host my listing whilst the offer (which I have had no success in contacting the buyer) is 'in place'..?

Did you accept the offer pre-suspension? If so you might need to cancel it before you can relist

Happened to me too. Reverb seems a little unreliable these days.

I've just posted something on Reverb and almost immediately got an 'offer' with this message...

seems to come from an account called Janice Profits located in Paris, France. Pretty certain it's dodgy, and have no intention of clicking on the link!

I was not given an reason for my suspension  or much of an apology for losing my sale, but when relisting my item, suddenly my 'paypal' account has a problem' ! ?? Don't know why or what, but the only way to get things back to normal was to only offer their Reverb Pay option... Seems a bit of a strong-arm tactic to force you to use their payment option only.

Reverb's standards have dropped, percentages increased and you don't have as many rights as a seller, I'm trying to deal less with reverb all around
 Last payment took 8 days to arrive

More likely, a crude phishing exercise for banking and identity details.

I received the exact same message via an “offer”, albeit from a different user. Responded with a counter-offer of £100k and a message that I would be reporting them to Reverb. Sadly my counter-offer was not accepted

Unfortunately Reverb has become a cesspit of scammers much like everywhere else these days. Except TFB.

Similar offer/message received tonight upon listing some stuff. I declined the offer and told them I'd reported the offer/message to the grown ups. Hopefully did the right thing.
