If you get close to that, or exceed it, you run the risk of getting locked up in Poshmark share jail. She has no listings. Im not sure how much longer it will work for anyone. I had/have a $500 bag listed and the same buyer kept offering me $200 or less claiming it was reasonable which it obviously isnt and wanted to argue about it claiming it was too high and thats why I hadnt sold it. It was solitary confinement. You would know if that happened. I do not own anything counterfeit and am appalled that they falsely accused me of such an absurd accusation! I decided that, if the stain was barely noticeable, it wouldnt matter if I was unable to remove it and I went ahead and purchased the dress. Since then another open case has been filed against one of my listings where it was clearly stated NO STAMP to determine if what I was selling was gold or gold-plated.

I didnt expect a response right away from the seller, of course, due to the holidays, but after the New Year passed, I commented to ask her if everything was okay(I figured she may have been away for the holidays). dont feed into all the games that are being played on Poshmark. what I found most frustrating about posh Sellers is they dont put much /any information in the description, they post terrible pics or only one picture and then they act put out when you ask them questions !

I have been on POSHMARK for about a month and I am already getting tired of their sharing game,parties and also Lowballers. Kids! I was on Etsy for four years, sold 1500+ items, all it takes is one bad apple customer to complain and shut down your shop permanently. This person just received the top and either didnt like it or found out it didnt fit her and wanted her money back. All of our users have their very own Poshmark webpage. While in theory that is great, I really dont have time to keep doing that daily. I have had a 5 star rating, about 25 sales so far. Nothing came, or was updated on Posh. I hover around 50 or so listings, so not a huge closet, but its nice to make a few dollars here and there. If youre an advanced posher, and youve been locked up in Poshmark share jail before, I have some secrets from you. So, I quit and went to eBay. I dont have time for this stupid back and forth game people play on poshmark with that ridiculous offer button so I just declined the offer and she went nuts! I want to get back to my like not always having to share for a sale. There are too many unethical buyers, trolls and Poshmark scams. People want authentic but want to pay $5.00?

Numbers of days listed Keep tabs on how many days your item has been listed and use Offer to Likers or price drop to increase your chance of making a sale by 80-90%. This article seems to bring to attention the Seller experience, but for myself as a serious Buyer, rather, there are too many ongoing occasions where the Seller accepts my offer and then 3 days later flippantly cancels with no cause for cancellation to the Buyer. I would never sell a flawed item- especially to that degree! Ive been on Poshmark for awhile and just started selling within the last four or five months. They could side with you or the buyer. I found it incredibly frustrating to put so much effort into photographing items that buyers wanted to lowball. Create a new listing to be automatically entered to win. I would like to put my two cents in this!! Very onesided. Flag next to the comments always), Hello, Stylaphilemag Is there a way to do this? Poshmark should look at your selling history, there is no way a seller would send an item with holes on it and literary, obviously, used after selling 100 new and high quality/5 start rated items there is no way on earth that we as a seller would do that. I do not like that this site has no way to message, and you cannot see, to my knowledge, peoples reviews. Too much creepy stuff going on with technology. But it is also about respect! You are right. Ha Ha Ha oh Posh purchasers! You get what you put into it! The offer AND discounted shipping is sent to everyone whos liked the listing. To answer your question, most of the items I started selling in my Poshmark closet were things I had bought for myself and no longer (or never) wore. I wrote on here once before but I just recently had an experience similar to Eltee. Im basically on PoshMark to sell. I emailed many times. The bad thing about this is the other Poshmark accounts are basically wanting a sell more than wanting to make a purchase. Not a lot, but I cant imagine that I am the only one that this has happened to. This is where the problem comes in I have been waiting on a direct deposit since Dec. 3rd, I also have an order that hasnt been fulfilled! Wow, this is very eye opening! ON top of everything, the buyer is NEW to Poshmark. Is essentially new to Posh, aka, a buyer. I offer poshmarks first regret-free promise to sellers. She asked if it was faded. Posh customer service is wishy washy coming to what they accept to return or refund. The worst for me was selling an amazing dress at a very low price just to get something out the door, packing it carefully and attractively, shipping next day only to receive a needs work rating two weeks later for no apparent reason. what else would i do ? ) That is steep. Not really what I was looking for doing with my time (I actually have a full-time job). I would recommend reporting it to the local authorities, or Tweeting publicly to Poshmark to get a response. My friend & I actually buy posh labels to mail things to one another because its cheaper than it would be if we actually paid the post out of pocket! That was my ridiculous newbie mistake. Youll get a full voicemail box, no way to make contact with a live person and no one will respond to your emails. I dont have pets and the dress was stored in a hanging bag. I havent! Since then, Ive sold almost 40 items, which I thought was pretty good in comparison to eBay, which Ive been doing for years.

Hi Stylaphile, Last week I made four offers and they were all accepted. Hi Amber! Four times a day for the parties. As suggested above, I will videotape placing the items in the box. It would be easy for a new website to come along and save sellers, and buyers, $$$$$. To switch between Markets, tap the menu on the top left of the app. Blessings to you. Why doesnt Poshmark oversee their listings and make it mandatory to post several pictures and provide more information? Im tired of low balls and comments on my listings about where to get it cheaper. You provided food for thought. Im so grateful I found you and all of these comments after having my first 2 and last 2 poor experiences on PM last week. Dont get caught up in the rhetoric and politics that coincide with social networking. So I tried to relist all my listings but Poshmark won't even let me do that! I have had an account for over 15 years with 220 transactions but I never though I would leave Poshmark for ebay. Being a business owner It wasnt a good decision for them either. I just read your comments about poshmark. (I suppose thats a response I should have expected from a young girl with very little sense of responsibility) But when I found myself blocking people all day long, I just stopped accepting offers period. Some poachers are very rude with how the address their potential buyers. I have a question. That makes me uncomfortable! I wonder is it worth it? Do you find self advertising costly? There are the trolls that comment and ask a gazillion questions about an item (most of which have already been answered in the descriptionthe one they couldnt be bothered to read). Poshmark is ignoring my request to redeem my earnings. Glad I found your blog, I have been looking for anywhere to type a complaint so that others can be warned. I sell ONE or TWO items per week. Has the change over been difficult? Ive reported the issue to the BBB. I only sell new items for a reason so i dont have all the issues that i have read on this posting. I want to open my own shop but am unsure as to how i can get myself out there(i dont have any personal social media). The most frustrating issue for me is, people dont know the difference between NEW UNUSED and excellent used condition, or pre-loved condition. Thanks for all the threads and all the comments. Thanks for the comment! Wtf??? Ive had to stop my notifications on this site as the alerts were getting to be too much! & 17.75 oz./525 ml Olaplex No. Why the fuck would the seller change the rating?!!??! Never had a case. I had another girl purchase a pair of capris for $4, which were in good condition she opened a case on me. I am certain the support is not from inside the United States. Yet thousands do it every week on that app. Youve inspired me to get off my bum and actually bring my online boutique to life. I encourage buyers to ask questions. I will say that I have never had an odor claim that I am aware of, but if I were to receive one, I would ask several questions around that to show how ridiculous it is to consider such a thing as a viable reason for return. Then she goes as far as posting a picture of my profile and some police report she claims to have filed. How do you advertise your site, or give it visibility to the market you are targeting? Lol. The buyer, with three followers, complained that my new Reed Krakoff bag smelled like manure and was stained all over. Posh MarketsPosh Markets lets you tap into different communities on Poshmark, whether its Women, Men, Kids, Home, etc. The thing I like about Poshmark is the exposure and the fact that everything is handled with their 20% fee (except seller protection apparently!). Hi there, I shouldve known my selling strategies & get to know the app well. Sorry for all those with negative experience but I appreciate that you shared it. These are terms that imply intimacy and you dont know me!! They do CCO and other opportunities that are NOT opportunities, its how posh makes more money, not us so dont fool yourself. All the best to all you other sellers as well . I sold lots of things that came as distressed inventory from a huge metalworking tooling company, industrial supply, tools, clothing. Agree with Nelia and Karo above just started on pm and dont want to spend a ton of time on it (have already). I can buy $20,000 in retail for $1200 and make $2400 fast. But what I found in that package was TRULY DISTURBING. It would be less frustrating if it were on an used item, but I have a buyer now reporting to poshmark that my brand new top with tag! I did NOT list it as new because I had removed the retail tag but did note that it was unworn and provided loads of photos. Nothing bad. But then again, who isnt? IT WAS NOT LIKE THIS AT ALL WHEN I SOLD IT TO HER. Sometimes its called Poshmark shadow-banned (a term popularized by Instagram). Thumbs dont move that fast. That also will only communicate through email. Everything stems from the top the CEO, Manish Chandra. Decent customer service is a key factor no matter if you are a Buyer or a Seller. I am SO glad I found this thread & am getting more and more disheartened by Posh. PROS: I sold a lot, barely any return or issues with sales or buyers. I hope you keep us posted on what happens. Another complained the item reeked of cigarette smoke, likely from the box I used as we dont smoke in our house but the box was sitting in our mud room which we sometimes smoke on. I decided anyone who gives me anything 3 stars or lower without good reason gets blocked and cannot buy from me again. Ive made some sales, but they have been pretty hard-won. The offer was $20. I think we should be able to review the buyer. is your closet showing blank? I tried the dress on, thinking that they may not be as noticeable while the dress was actually worn, but they were very visible. Poshmark ended up accepting their side of the story and allowed the return. Nuff said! To mark a listing as "Not for Sale": click the "Edit" icon on the listing details page > select "Mark as Not for Sale.". I bet I have spent 8 plus hours a day on there sharing and all that other nonsense. Tradesy is great for High Designer Labels and only women clothing. Free shipping AND returns. Years ago, I gave up on Ebay because I purchased something and just never received the item. First it blows my mind that people will pay for designer dusty bags and empty shoe boxes but hey, that thats just me. I dont know how they can look themselves in the mirror. Can you give me your thoughts on tradsey? Do you not use them because your items are not new? Hi Diana! No there's not a way to auto log out. The item was never taken out of its original packaging. Oh wow! I have worn the suit once and they were absolutely no damages. If you write a comment on your experience on the listing for which the item was canceled for others to see and read, the Seller will block you for speaking up and writing the simple facts of the experience. I hate they have a buyers protection in place and not a sellers protection. I think Ive had the worst experience on poshmark yet. I was just curious, what was the best way to post an move all your items listed to your new online store? My account was locked again, and I was told it wouldnt be reinstated. They really only care about their super high volume sellers that sell junk (many are in China and are not restricted even with seller ratings as low as 93)! Thats why God invented Facebook. Well duh they are used. Theyre the reason I stopped accepting offers on Poshmark altogether. PoshMark has something for everyone. Honestly I would have been happy to arrange a return ( bc it is a costly item) if she had just told me -hey It doesnt fit canI pls return it .. then I could have gotten it back undamaged and resold but instead i have a $200 brand new suit that is ruined. Well, that is all well and good for you, but there are people who *do* want to make real money. At least I know my experience with Poshmark is far from unique and while my aggravation and losses are small compared to some of you, it reminds me that there are better uses of my time. I always go into the Post office and get a receipt, then I have proof of shipment. Whats really unfortunate about these subreddits is that theres no option for a critical discussion that cuts to the heart of the matter, which is that Poshmark is a really poorly run business. The seller contacted me and said her entire closet was thrifted and apologized profusely. And of course the seller is trying to make there money back off an item they may have paid 200 dollars new and selling used for 80 or 90 dollars, for long time thrift store/second hand/goodwill retail store / yard sell and so on buyers, we know that 80 to 90 dollars is not a true deal on a used item. I like poshmark but i am a man and everyone thinks i am gay and i am not ,so women who think it is bad ,try being a man and dealing with the people on poshmark ! Bundle & Save! I feel that I should get some of my money back bc I have defective shoes and poshmark has a guarantee to not sell faulty items since I paid so much for these defective very expensive Louboutins I feel that I should be compensated.. so far as a buyer this website kinda sux .. Im an honest person and buyer and not one thing that I bought on this website was described accurately ( I take that back one pair of pants were fine) but sellers should be honest bc there are good honest buyers like myself who end up with the short end of the stick. Im a perfect, highest rated buyer on eBay, and Ive sold as well. Interesting how that works I thought you were innocent until proven guilty but on Poshmark you are Guilty until proven innocent . Her reply was less than professional and she chided me for waiting almost four days to rate and give feedback and for suggesting that the dress should have sold for a lower price due to the unrevealed staining. My daughter bought it and it did not fit. The dress was sent back. When I first started I loved it but now with the Low Ballers or people asking a million questions even if its the middle of the night, Ill reply ! Reason #1. Lowest Listing Price The lowest price youve ever listed the item. Idk why theyre not even bothering to look into this but it really upsets me, especially since theyre making money off of me. Ever wonder why theres no seller protection on PoshMark? Hi Pam! I am trying to decide if I should block her from buying any future items from me. Without a Fashion and Accessories platform, I no longer have an interest in having a closet and Im officially quitting this job yeah! Thank you sharing this! I was so negatively impacted by my experience with Poshmark that for about 6 months I tried, both on Reddit and a blog that I created, to create a community of like minded folks to start some kind of a movement to expose them (so that there is more readily available consumer information).
