Hey so I bought this static on mercari for a steal but looking at it when it arrived I'm a little skeptic. Can someone help me out and help identify if its rated or not. Thanks

What do we know about this Mercari site? I've been shopping/buying gear online for 20 years and have never heard of it. Sometimes it really is better to buy from well established sources (online or B&M).

Mercari is a secondhand / resale site like ebay. No auction function, just straight up buying and selling between private parties.

I mean, it's legit if you want to buy some yoga pants. For climbing gear, it's the same as getting it from ebay. Caveat emptor.

Recap, You bought a used rope form a stranger over the internet....you don't have a photo but you want our opinion? Correct? OK, here's mine, if the above is true, your an idiot. Hope I helped. What did you pay and what did you get? Just curious, it is likely that in no way any new facts changes my opinion.
ps - I mispelled You're, From and mispelt so you can catch my drift.

I’ve gotten great deals on Mercari including most of a rack for $100 and an R3 for $30. It’s like Craigslist though, know what you’re buying and inspect it when you get it. Without more info there’s no way to say

So, in summary, we have established that your rope is totally safe to wear. Pairs best with yoga pants. Any other questions Cordell?
