Life as a Buyer and Seller on ATW

Hello to all the beautiful sellers and brilliant buyers of ATW. This is the first time I have written a blog so please bear with me on this.

Why I chose to do this blog.

The reason I chose to do this blog is that I feel I have a unique perspective as an ex-buyer now turned seller. This being at the right time of year for experience on both sides of the tracks.

Why did I become a buyer?

Well to put it bluntly I was bored and fed up I felt vanilla and wanted to spice things up. I had been on Twitter and saw girls from TV call in shows selling worn items of clothing and thought hmm there's a thought. One of the girls actually mentioned ATW on one of her posts and naturally I had to take a look. So without further ado I looked for All Things Worn and it came up with the option to sign up as a buyer or seller. Signed up as a buyer and within minutes was greeted by the most beautiful ladies I had ever seen.

My time as a buyer: the great, the good, the bad, and the very bad.

I must have been registered as a buyer for about a week before I mustered up the courage to use the site. On one particular day I decided this would be the day. Finished my early shift at work and decided to log in. There were many beautiful greetings from many amazing girls. But one cute redhead caught my eye (I have a soft spot for redheads) and not mentioning any names I sent a nervous hello to her. She was very reassuring and put my mind at ease immediately within 15 minutes she had her first sale from me.

I then decided to buy more from her as I wasn't sure if the other sellers would be like her. I made a little game of it and gave her clues as to what I was looking at if she guessed right I bought it. She was very good at it and I ended up spending a lot of money (well spent)

I was back the next day to add more, she told me she was going on holiday. Must have been a good one because I bought more from her. I felt brave now and bought stuff from other sellers who I found equally as lovely as my first seller. Organised all my orders to arrive a few days later for my week off. Kinky parcel after kinky parcel arrived I was enjoying it so much I was getting addicted.

Throughout that week I spent so much more and ended up a top ten buyer. Back to work and buying went to a slower pace as I wouldn't be home for my parcels. So I paced myself and bought around days off to ensure I would be home when the delivery arrived. This carried on through to October where I entered troubled waters.

I answered a private message from a seller reasonably new to site (about 2 weeks), verified and really beautiful and ran up a big order over time from her which I asked to be delivered all together for both our convenience. The order was quite high. She suddenly started complaining about buyers messing her about and not being able to cope with it. I kept asking if she was alright when suddenly I got a message out of the blue saying your order has been shipped (a week before the allotted delivery date). I thought eh that's odd I will ask her. I couldn't find her anywhere so I gave the benefit of the doubt.

Things were happening in real life too, I was helping a so-called friend at his shop where he made me feel ugly in front of a girl we both liked, really personal jibes. I told him off and informed him I would be leaving on Christmas eve. Found out after this embarrassment they were together I cried myself to sleep every night. I went from an XL to M in three weeks went off food. I was heartbroken and that big delivery hadn't arrived. I suddenly realised it was a month to the day after she started that she left, her premium had run out and she just left me with nothing. It hadn't occurred to me to contact admin.

Waking up at 12am for work every morning I had messages saying hi how are you? And I would reply but the following message was often would you like to buy this or that, this was virtually 9 times out of 10. Stressed out with losing a large sum of money and what was going on with my personal life I got more depressed. Worse was to come because my head was in a bad place. A couple of new sellers got me to go on Kik and said I've been kicked out of my house I need money. I didn't send any, but it made me feel bad (what if it was true?). I was staring into a dark tunnel and decided to come off ATW for a few days.

A few days later came back on site and got chatting to the most beautiful and understanding seller of all who filled me with a bit of self-worth and was so kind to me, it reignited my love for ATW. I placed an order, and everything was done perfectly. I was still getting pushy sellers, but learned to veer away from the sales patter and the amazing seller said to me why not let me own you? This was the breakthrough I needed, as soon as I put I was owned by her the pushy sellers vanished and she filled me with confidence every time we chatted. All the way through December to mid-January life was getting good.

My life as a seller: the good and the bad.

Life was so good in fact, that through the confidence I felt when dealing with my amazing owner I mentioned a pair of trashed work boots which she said would possibly sell good on MTW. I had thought about selling but having no confidence was shaky about it. But she actually encouraged me to go for it which I did.

I applied to be a seller, paid six months premium, got verified and slowly started adding listings. During this time, I was an owned seller. Things started off slowly as it usually does, I wasn't expecting to be inundated at first. My bio pic was of a videogame character as I wasn't confident about my looks after that incident at work. But after adding a unique listing I got a bite. Got chatting with someone over this sale over a week, when it came to paying, he said his payment option wasn't working. I looked at his reviews and he had bought something from another seller 30 minutes previously. Being understanding I said to him you bought something half an hour ago, but I'll let you off and clear the order but won't report you. He was happy until one hour later another review appeared from another seller. That did it, I reported him. No way had he just done that to me. A whole week he had me hooked by a possible sale.

My first sales came in and good reviews followed, I was finding my flow. Me and my beautiful owner ended up becoming friends as opposed to owner/owned. But I got another knock back in my confidence when I realised, I was average and I felt like I was boring. I set off on a mission of self-improvement worked on my page, started powerwalking regularly and even put my face in my bio pic. Sales got better and a new, improved, confident me appeared with a mission of helping and spreading love through the site.

I had finally realised why I joined ATW. It wasn't sales, it was friendship. The love I have for everyone here is very real. Without you amazing people I may not have seen this year in. And by way of gratitude I show my love through my #praiseparty every day. I encourage love and respect as there are no sellers without buyers, no buyers without sellers. Be happy people, be you and as always stay amazing xxx.
