Needs work to be reliable

I’ve been an avid buyer and seller on this platform since it’s early days. I used to love using this app and saw it as my go-to for both buying and selling Funko Pops. However, my “inventory” consists of hundreds of listings that I have ZERO search functionality or management ability over. I have to manually scroll through almost 400 of my own listings on the app to find an item I listed. Typically, the app will glitch about halfway through and start repeating the beginning listings so I can never make it through everything. As a seller, I need a platform that makes cross-posting easy with the ability to update my listings easily. Sadly, this app is the opposite of that. If I can’t access my 300+ items, I can’t deliver with the integrity I strive for as a seller, and it also makes me weary as a buyer to purchase anything from a seller with a lot of listings for that very same reason. Overall, this app has great potential. But the fancy live auctioning features and talk of introducing chat features shouldn’t come at the cost of basic functionality like inventory searching or simple data exports. At the end of the day, it’s a good enough app, but not the trusty bread and butter go-to app that I had really hoped Logan and the team were striving for long term.

Potential to be the industry standard

I echo the same sentiments as in the other reviews about the genius of the built in PPG, real time values and everything we ever loved about Mercari, minus the fees, but there are a couple of developmental shortcomings. The biggest one is that there’s no validation for account creation. I accidentally entered my email incorrectly and was not able to update that part of my personal information to fetch the shipping label for my sales. The second would be the lack of a fail safe when listing with prices. I listed an item for sale for $0 and it was permitted to be published. Most selling apps have an algorithm that inform that the value just be greater than zero. As far as applying to be entered into the Beta live program, there is really no place to list credentials that would influence the developers decision other than asking if you have sold on WhatNot before. Consider it is less than 11 months old and there are collectors who have been active in the community for the past 5+ years with various experiences, it would benefit the developers and app to include those with commiserate experience and verifiable credibility in the collecting community. Other than that, I see this app being the model for online selling for Pops especially with some fine tuning and continued quality leadership in the way of its collector friendly offerings.

Game Changer

WhatNot is a game changer! It’s refreshing to be able to interact with the seller and others while bidding on items. As a Funko seller myself, I enjoy getting to curate shows and build reputation with frequent flyers. It is still new, but the WhatNot team is making every step in the right direction to listen to user feedback and make adjustments as needed. On top of that, the WhatNot support team is excellent! I’ve had to contact them on a few occasions and they are always so quick to help resolve the issue and they remain so friendly the entire time, it’s like talking to an old friend. I thoroughly enjoy this app and the direction in which it’s headed. The categories are growing to bring in a more diverse list of sellers and buyers, the community involvement is fun to be a part of, there are even subgroups that have formed on discord that are related to helping new sellers grow their profile. Overall very pleased with WhatNot. If you’re on the fence, what are you waiting for! Find a current WhatNot user, sign up with their link and get a free $10 credit to explore the platform. You’re welcome :)

Stole my money

It’s my first time selling on this app. I sold an item over a week ago and it has been delivered a couple of days(almost a week). I finally decided to reach out to customer service and I received a notification and email the next day that it has been complete. The weird thing is my balance is zero but there’s a transaction of the money I should’ve received. Funny thing is I never physically selected the transfer button. I thought it transferred automatically so I checked my PayPal account and there are no transactions. I have no money in my account. I felt comfortable selling here because of the great reviews. I just want my money. If customer service can reach out to me about this situation, I will appreciate itUpdate: After I left a review, I received my money in my balance. I just don’t like that it’s connected to PayPal. It took weeks to get my money. I would have prefer it if I can link my debit card. Bottom line, I got my money 3 weeks after the item was delivered.

Needs improvement ASAP

I’m loving this app but there are a lot of issues with it. The auctions don’t load live a lot of the time and we constantly have to close the app fully and re-enter so we can see the live auction. Also a BIG issue I have is that when I make an “offer” on a listing, it goes in the “offer” section of the “buying” tab and I can never click on it to see it, who is selling it or anything. Even when it’s been accepted and even shipped. I can never click on it. I don’t understand why there is a difference. I can see all that info in the other purchase section for other purchases that were bought outright or through the auction. This really needs to be fixed. I also find the rating system weird as you have to wait for it to show up. And if it does when you’re not ready to rate, you have close out of the window and wait a few days for the rating to pop again or the notification to click on. Other than that, it’s a great app and have had good seller/buyer experiences.

Great with flaws

This app is a great place to buy and sell Pops, even for non live users you can list 97% of what funko pops exist. Now let’s talk comics… this is a wonderful place to buy comics, the comic community is great! If you want to sell comics currently it’s only allowed with live auction, which after 6 weeks I have found if you aren’t a big social media account, you tuber or some major eBay comic seller you don’t get the live auctions and other applications from big names will go before you. I personally verified this with 2 big name you tubers that applied for whatnot after me and were selling live in no time. If you want to buy a comic I highly recommend this app, if you want to buy and sell a few funkos great place to go. If you want to sell a comic….or more than 1000+ books like me (30 year collection) this isn’t an easy place to move comics. Back to eBay and making listings for endless hours I guess. Not the best place here for selling comicsfor the common man.

People on app are great, app after 7/26 update much better

* New update seems to have things running much smoother! Good job taking the reports/ feedback from users and solving the issues! * Changed to 5 stars after update!I really enjoy using the app to watch, purchase and spend time with the Funko collecting community. However these last updates have left the app unusable, infuriating, and leaves me nervous for my personal information security. At times the app will completely shutdown after latest two updates, app keeps asking me to log in or give them my payment information again and again. That doesn’t make me feel like they are securely storing it if they keep losing it when the app crashes. When watching shows the app can’t seem to handle the viewers on the platform and frequently freezes mid auction or kicks streamers off their own shows. Love this community and hope they work out the kinks in the app because it’s a shame when people can buy or sell without having to jump through a badly performing app. Hopefully this update from a few minutes ago fixes all the problems!

Honest review!

I got this app when I first got in the “funko game”. It is very new but for a new app it runs great. Positive review first!1. Really easy to navigate, they have a great search engine and it’s so simple to find, buy, and submit sales to the app. I have not sold any on here yet (which will bring me to the negative review portion) but it’s easy to do2. The pop are decadently priced. Some of the best priced pops I’ve seen have been on here, also there are ridiculously priced pops because they are the only listing. 3. PURCHASED pops I’ve had are in AMAZING condition. The way they are shipped is insanely good, and they’ve all had protectors and have been kept nice and snug in the box. Shipping prices aren’t bad either. The bad:My only complaint is that people don’t buy pops here too much. At least not mine. I see a lot of pops here for a long time that go no where. That being said, the places that do sell them are the auctions they do, which have some grails for sure, but they sells pops there for WAY more than they’re worth. I think people just get catch up in the hype of it. Overall it’s a great app!UPDATE 9/12I’m giving this app a five star because of the great customer service and understanding on their end. Fast response, empathy to a situation, and clear message is key to any great company! Love it.

Really Good App, but has an issue.

I got Whatnot back in late 2021, and it was just on my phone. I found the concept cool but never had any money to use on it. Then I ended up referring a friend. I checked my account months later and discovered I had $10. So last week I used it and bought a $30 funko pop for only $4 out of my own pocket. (I collect Pops.) The community is great and the bidding for all products and ways of getting it are great. Whatnot has become my number 1 way to grow my collection. One problem though. Whenever I use the app, even when I’m on the Home Screen, the scrolling lags and moves very blocky and choppy across the screen. This happens when I entered the app, when I exit a stream and return to my Home Screen, and even when I reset the app. Also, when I enter a stream, it takes about 30 seconds for my keyboard to stop lagging and actually allow me to type in real time. This happens EVERY TIME I OPEN THE KEYBOARD IN CHAT. Overall, using this app is a good experience, but the lag is terrible. The type pad lags, the Home Screen lags. It is all around an issue.

Great App .

This app has helped build my now ever growing collection of funko pops . Now that being said . I know that updates are necessary to keep up with the times . But too many changes at once chase issues . Here are a few examples of things I feel need to be brought back to visibility in the app. As well as things I think that should be added1. The items for sales scroll bar that used to be in the home page .(this is a big one , because as of right now . Unless the person is following you and they happen to look at notifications , no one will know you’re selling something unless they do a search for something specific ) 2. When you go to someone’s profile you no longer see bio information . So if I want to reach someone I bought something from . I need to hope there user name matches their social media . 3. Some way to directly communicate with sellers or other member thru the app . I could go on an on . But let’s start with these . Otherwise . Love the app , love the community. Great job
