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. Thats awesome that youre at a place where youve come to terms with the sunk costs of your closet. I was out the time and return shipping and the product while it was being returned to me!

They always protect me and I only lost 1 dress because I didnt understand, and etsy didnt tell me, China doesnt respect our tracking #s so it was delivered but no tracking proof so she, of course , knew this and filed a never received claim. I saw that the same guy responded to the young boy pic and the woman whos heading was lady in dress cook clean and gives happy endings. She has a small child sitting next to her. I just bought, after 9 months on Poshmark selling actual high quality Branded clothing, one of the Boutique items Poshmark sells to Poshers through their wholesale option.

Im actually leaving PM this week. OMG, Im so sorry you ad to go through that Cat. So then I upped the prices on my items hoping to get an offer closer to what I wanted to sell it for, still got lowball offers. Then there are the pervert trolls. The very day the buyer got them, she opened a case that they were worn. When this item left my possession, these were brand leggings with no flaws, I just took them out of the bag for goodness sake! Its that easy. For $50. I enjoyed seeing another perspective on the situation. Yup, you heard it here. It has so far been a colossal waste of time. I will proceed with caution on Posh.. Trying to figure out all the steps I need to take. Truthfully, though, I havent received more than a handful of low ball offers since I adjusted my pricing strategy. I just want the item I picked. .My latest issue is being locked out of my account. Thank you for sharing your experience and I thank all the other people for sharing they bad experiences too. Thats ridiculous! Is there any advice for sales to new members on PM? But after sharing, liking, and following others, there doesnt seem to be much return. It takes more time than it is worth and Im seeing the writing on the wall before going any further. It has been countless hours of trying to fix a problem I did not cause and Poshmark will not help. I was informed that I have to wait while they review the case. Its always heartening to see new folks finding it . Description: I don't mind the offer button. I just save my time - just ignore the low ballers, people who complain about shipping, or anyone else annoying. Now Ive started to get will you take $35 for those jeans? or whats you lowest? and can you try on? sort of questions that reek of a Poshmark and Depop customer. I was all excited and telling friends how great Poshmark was until this. So when another seller (whos items are actually luxury with the price tags to boot) gives me a lowball offer, I politely thank them, wish them well, then block em. Sometimes I accept a low offer if I want to get rid of something profit is profit no matter what the size especially on an item that has been in my inventory for years. I dont sell anything that isnt in very good or new condition, and I would never be deceitfulEVER! I contact Poshmark to initiate a return and submit my photos.

Being spending hours listing sharing following to make $2.05. Should have known better!! Also I am 100% sure Poshmark sells your email address as I now have TONS of junk email addressed to my Poshmark user name!!! Im glad you created youre own store! I sent all this info to poshmark and they replied for awhile and then nothing! They needed to compete with Amazon, and the money they made on small ticket items wasnt worth getting in the middle of a dispute over. If they keep lowballing, I'll block them in a day or two. They dont look at the fact of the effort you put in. I had my absolute last straw with them tonight. I took away all discounts Bc of this. What should I do? Ive used eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, OfferUp, and now Facebook Marketplace as well as Tradesy. Probably not a bad Seller, but potential, serious Buyers, be aware that this Seller may flippantly cancel your order with no response to cause of cancellation. I was pretty smitten, as it was very unusual, and a piece of art, in my opinion. Thank you for sharing your experience! Very onesided. Selling used clothing for big money is a joke. and then no accepting or reviewing so you have to wait for your cash! And not just within the Poshmark universe. However, if they raise their price by at least 50% say, then it could be worth engaging with them. At least with eBay, you only see what you search for and are not bombarded with gross items and sellers all over your feed. (Seller finally makes a response right after, although a very questionable one, again a little more than two and a half weeks have gone by) Unfortunately, there are just a lot of less-than-honest people out there who want something for nothing and have no problem cheating other people out of their money (or product). Thanks for understanding, Janet. Also there are so many in person places to sell like let it go on top of the usual. Maybe it cost them $1 to make! Its understandable. They gave the buyer back the money. Im giving major deals & passing on my discount ( trying to get a small margin if i can but on there its hard!) I found this article very enlightening even though its 4 years old. It all makes me sad. 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. There customer service is horrible, especially for what they charge! I expect you will come down further and I will counter higher. So this $185 dress which I sold for $95 is ruined!! Thanks for the comment Holly. She ended up posting my personal information on various websites and on the posh app, and told people I was never sending her top. Therefore, you are having a one to one conversation with the customer so to me that appears to make a difference overall in the quantity of low balls I receive. You cannot say anything in response to this, as its against Poshmark Ettiquette Rules!! Thanks! I have so so many high end items on there without any problems but I think I had just been lucky until now. Mecari buyers are more excited to purchase in the constant 24 hr feed . Recently I started putting more time into it and I noticed that I actually started to see more purchases! Augh I feel your pain. Also, I have the luxury of living in New York so I attend a lot of designer sample sales and shop at some of the best high-end consignment shops. Theyre not gorgeous, staged photos theyre photos for record. I have gotten so many direct emails and messages asking me how I left Poshmark and started my own e-commerce business and Ive finally put everything Ive learned into an e-book. People suck! Im new to Posh and I realize this article is older. You must be logged in to reply to this topic. I buy on there and I assume that the offered price, or the discount they send after Ive liked the item is a fair price. I have sent several emails with no response. There is also a lot of elitism! She commented on the listing not sure these will fit, but willing to invest my offer. I asked about the sizing, and the seller responded right away. I know you can sell on Pinterest as well:) Or even just share your listings so people can find the link. I select 8 items, and while Im reading the descriptions, I spot little blurb promising $5 off if you buy 5 or more items, $10 off for 10 or more. I myself been with them from the beginning.

These are the people you rush to the post office for so you can get their item delivered ASAP, but thenonce they get it, they dont even bother tomark it as received. Poshmark is such a joke of a business. 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. Engage in the following strategy: Ask yourself, is an emotional attachment clouding your judgement a bit in terms of what youre willing to sell something on Poshmark for? If theres something that needs to be clarified, then by all means, ask Hi, I came across your post and loved it because it describes how I feel with Poshmark. I dont mind doing the work but i believe i should at least be seeing some improvements on their part. I will not buy from anyone with the chart posted in their ad, or from Poshers that have aggressive language in their listing or closet. I sell on etsy, ebay (the worst) , tradesey, and have my own shop. This is not the place (or the platform) to engage in a battle of words with the offending buyer. Can anyone suggest how I can get my money for this? Again, thats why I say there is not enough protection for the sellers on Poshmark. Their reason? I actually tried Mercari for a while but all I got were seriously lowball offers on all my stuff (like $3.00 lowballs). Definitely open to better options! ON top of everything, the buyer is NEW to Poshmark. 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). But the MAIN reason I will not do posh is because of the very restrictive photo requirements. Hi Dee! I am so frustratedfor $20! It is only $65.00 and I am glad it was not one of my very expensive items hat I have not listed. You get excited at seeing that congrats message letting you know someone wants to buy your stuff. So, when it happened to me, I was shocked. Does she have something to hide? Posh happily accepts my 20% fee and wants us to Share the Love. It shows them that you are a serious seller, with costs for your items. It was a closet full of nice stuff as well at higher prices. Complete disaster. so ill stay a little longer -but maybe try Ebay and other sites for my more expensive collector items. No ONE person can work this system and make an appropriate amount of money to live on coming into the app at this point. Thank you for providing all of us with a space to commiserate! It just reinforced my decision to NOT start poshmark at all. If it is someone who lives in your area and wants to meet to transact (Ive done this and saved the individual the shipping fee), then meet in a public place where others are around and tell them it is cash only!!!! 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 ! Especially woman to woman! NOTE I have been selling on eBay since my now 16yo was a baby and still sell there. Okay, brace yourselves, women! Also (sorry I know this is going long) there is a risk associated with many itemswill it fit me? Is it just me or has anyone else noticed they are taking a higher amount of taxes out of sales than the actual state rates? Heres the bad experience I had that was the impetus for my Poshmark departure. Is it a monthly fee? Of the site, she said they didnt break any rules. And an update for board poshmark approved the buyers return and their comment was not enough images of damage its a large tote not sure how to do all sides and inside with 4 pictures. In this way, some people feel as though theyve won. There is a psychological aspect to the lowball offerregardless of platform, Poshmark or any other. Anyway I can go on. Besides all the fake purses, etc., I wonder about fake clothing. I block about 20 to 30 sellers a day with ease and never look back. So frustrating & trying to not take it personally and/or quit since I have 2 more boxes of clothes coming to resell. I have been pondering over the idea of whether or not accept the return, but it appears from what I have read here, I might as well fart in the wind. I cant say that I am leery of those buying who dont have a profile the reason is that Posh has made it difficult for someone who just wants to shop and not sell. The Seller and Poshmark ruined it for me! She has yet to receive the items she purchased and I know shes going to write an awful review. During the pandemic, I havent wanted to deal with all the time wasted selling to these stores in person so Ive just been mailing in things that I dont care about. Lowball offers on everything, nasty comments, you name it. Moral of the story its fun, spend whatever time you want to with it but know theres risk and dont get emotionally involved. 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. If you can't afford it . Any advice I would appreciate ps great IG page I just started following you. The could give a flying fig about any seller issues. It might be time to say goodbye to Poshmark myself. They put the header Hurry your Free Shipping Ends Tonight in my news header so I bought something, but didnt get free shipping. Im working on a competitive app that will do just that and more! Exceptions would be: if you purchased a collectible garment or accessory that a celebrity has worn or purchased a vintage piece of designer couture garment that is a One of A Kind piece or limited edition piece. And yet it looks well-done on the Seller because Poshmark will still list that item as SOLD, so it looks like the Sellers are actually doing well even though they cancel abruptly. SO FRUSTRATING!!! Also, a lot of people have luck selling on Instagram. Im shocked and disheartened to learn that so many other sellers have experienced the same ABUSE by a company that were keeping in business! Hopefully shell be banned from Poshmark. Thanks for the comment Angelica! Terrible experience! I looked for weeks and saved for weeks because Im a waitress with 2 kids so I dont have 500 dollars to just throw around. Not only because Im trying to learn how to think more like a seller, but because I finally found a pricing strategy that means I dont get many low ball offers. I just joined poshmark. Poshers reading the full description & observing photos of jewelry and immediately filing a claim stating that the item was not as described ? I am ready to close down my account already! Apparently these people are only willing to pay $5 for ANYTHING in your closet, whether its an authentic hard-to-find Coach bag or a vintage Versace dress. Its just business. So I said in my listing, fits like a medium. Oh and I also gave the buyer as a gift, a cute little Packers mini piggy bank AND a small lot of other Packers items I had for sale that she admired. Again, there should be more seller protection offered by Poshmark when it comes to trolls like these and Poshmark scams in general. The guy asked for a PARTIAL refund because he said he just felt that he paid too much for it. After November 16, 2016. Thanks for your comment Patricia.

So basically it appears that they are just conditioned from Poshmark and Depop to make an offer instead of buying outright. They were also filthy! When you buy used, naturally you expect to pay a lot less. I dont have a cat so I knew it was a BS excuse for didnt fit me. They just provided a tracking # to wait for god knows what to arrive. People who offered reasonable prices were ostracized. NO sellers response to feedback anymore. What I always liked about Etsy is that because it is perceived as e-commerce site vs. a site where you trying to get a price hook up, Etsy customers would not typically ask for any price considerations they just purchase outright. I think Ill keep it that way! As a very small time seller (only my own high end closet items), I spend a lot of time photographing and always ship same day. Our focus is on creating a platform for value and environmentally conscious users where theres no elitism, there is equal protection for sellers and buyers alike, no low-ball or time suck and speed and ease of sell is achieved. 278k plus shares as of now, no robots or helpers.

First of all, dont communicate with someone outside of the Posh app. And she is, of course entitled to her feelings, opinions and thoughts in regards to Posh. But started selling upper end vintage and luxury labels on eBay in the late 90s selling to a variety of people but also designers and once in awhile a celebrity. Also how to people get their hands on all these designer bags to consign? No response.
