As if anyone living in the United States could make money off a vintage, used, faux leather jacket, and would bother to try to sell one that was counterfeit. When I read all this posh sounds very, very creepy, Hi I have been selling on posh for a year now.theys took all my stuff of there web because I sold a few lipstick I though they were authentic but they turn out to be not,well they owe me $ 90 dollars and its been getting processed since dec 19th I keep emailing them to please deposit my money because I want to delete my account I emailed about 10 to since dec I havent got paid. I bought this bag from Saks and saved money for months to buy it. Im in the same boat and trying to figure out how to best transition off of Poshmark.

This article has convinced me there are better options. I just received my electric yoga pants back today, and not only are there new snags on it that it didnt have when it left my possession, there are stains at the knees and the back of the pants near where your heel would be. I always check out the buyer before shipping. It was $20 for a pair of handmade Sterling Silver earrings posted at $38. No comments or likes, just followers. I quit Poshmark a couple of years ago, thank god. So after 8 days and no help from them, I deleted my items and cancelled the one sale and left a detailed message for the buyer, who, if she has any kind of brain, ought to have the sense to look on other selling sites if shes interested in my item. You take a chance to see if something fits or not- its not OUR problem as a seller if it does not fit you! I have never in my entire life of purchasing on line seen how lazy Poshmark sellers are. I looked at her page and there are several comments from sellers saying that she made low-ball offers that they just cant accept, etc. I find it appalling that they truly believe someone *should* spend 12-18 hours a day on their app sharing USED clothing over and over again just to be bumped up in their algorithms and have a fighting chance of exposure. So Tell MeHave you ever realized that you had the wrong strategy to let things go? For this stage in my journey, though, Im rethinking those low ball offers for two big reasons. 4 got 5 star reviews.

They brag about entering the closet and making nasty comments and offering 3.00 on every listing. Thats basic customer service that I feel any seller should be prepared to provide. Thank you for your story, glad to see I am not the only one. Also until I learned how to use the closet and the bundle features I was getting discounted prices all over the place when I didnt want to ask for prices so I learned how to just click and buy it instead of bundling it. I am still using the app, but I will not be buying any bags! Of course poshmark sided with her and now the dress is been sent back to me. 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. Its enough to make you really irritated, if youre that picky you could always try asking or leaving a comment warning first that youre going to be that particular and will act like a miserable brat when your never used $120 retail item you bought for an offer of $18 smelled either too nice or not nice enough! Im a Poshmark Suggested User; a top seller with 1100+ salesand Im closing my closet at the end of the month. designer vs non-designer, hip/cool stuff vs regular stuff, vintage vs contemporary). The buyer gets them, never contacts me, but instead files a case and says theyre fake! Ive only had one person open a claim and Poshmark denied it. I am just sick!!!! Luckily 99.9 of my sales have been wonderful. I recently found a listing for a Kate spade jewelry box that the poster calmed was orginally 100 dollars that she was no selling for 75 dollars. Are they kidding? for an item I was selling for $25. I was devestated!!! Like somehow, thats your problem and not the manufacturers? I sold $2,000 last month (April), all preowned items, and expect more in May. I sold authentic items, described them well, photographed them well, especially noted any items with damage/wear. maybe a few are , but most of us know what its worth and it is not what you paid for it.

Here are the best brands to sell on Poshmark for women's tops: 11. I decided to sell on Poshmark because I took a early retirement and wanted to do something Part-time on the side. Im new and didnt know how to use the bundle feature. No response!! I got to the point where if someone offered me less than half the asking price, I would just block them. Thanks! Maybe it cost them $1 to make! Boom, done. An thats what this women did !!! Louise, I havent been very active on the site in a while so Im unaware that are postings like this out there. In my opinion, at the very least, the whole site should be shut down. I know outlet goods are often times different than full price designer items, but the fact of the matter is that more and more designers are starting to price their items more competitively. Hi Nelia! People who offered reasonable prices were ostracized. Every penny counts at this point. I use the blog, social media and Google AdWords to drive traffic to ShopStylaphile. Im sorry that happened to you! I know I will one day. And I get it. *Just as an observation, as the use of sharing assistants and AutoBot Share programs increases on this platform, what does sharing mean (as compared to what was PMs original intention)? Wow!! But my concern was that many comments here mentioned a last straw situation that made them quit Poshmark for good. That can be you! I think when you start blocking people that's when you've started taking things too personally. Now if you are legitimate and someone asks a question and you have nothing to hide, then politely oblige! I grew my closet, made many sales, became a suggested user with a 5 star rating. I also had issues with women on there. Hi. I agree! Can you please tell me more about it. Someone told me how well they were doing and said I should give it a try. She rated me a 3 Star and Ive only had 5 star ratings. I asked about the sizing, and the seller responded right away. I still have a bit of faith left in eBay thoughand more so in recent years actually. Im not sure how much longer it will work for anyone. The next low rating was a similar situation. Poshmark literally tells them what to do to return an item. I have this terrible feeling i will never get my bag back! and what really shocked me was the trolling! I quit because of all of the points you noted with the primary issue being horrid customer support. I think its bad for both. So sorry that happened to you. Or a new platform to use? This seriously angers me. Seriously. I also have an ebay store. I had someone offer me $5. In addition there was a good morning america aka GMA segment I think Yesterday on side hustle ie doing stuff on the side of regular job/school etc. Sure theres a ton of complaining and trying to figure out what the business is doing, but theres no real pushback from the community. I love having the control I have over my ShopStylaphile.com site. Ive been called every name in the book even after being very nice! I get charge backs with my own online store and never win even when the buyer hand signed for the box. Overall I find that on Depop that I generally get fair to good offers but I definitely get my share of lowballers as well. It is maniacal. Anyway, I decided it was time to clear out my closets and make some money from the items I dont want anymore. Its a selling clothes to people thing. Decent customer service is a key factor no matter if you are a Buyer or a Seller. I first signed up with Posh a little over 3 weeks ago, and I am BURNT OUT! Lowball offers? Im breaking down the sense of trust and integrity on the app. My main reasons for abandoning this platform are: 1). . People suck! Poshmark Bot vs Virtual Assistant: Which One Is Better? I was all excited and telling friends how great Poshmark was until this. That is steep. If you pay what they are asking, list it for the msrp they suggest, then wait for an offer and Posh taking 20%, you might make a couple of bucks or break even! Archived post. Very onesided. I sell some on eBay and Tradesy as well just to expose my items to a wider audience. Fine. I am sincerely hoping that with the recently increased success of the customer service team, that we will be successful in getting our Poshmark back to the way it was meant to be with perhaps some more appropriate commission fees. If I had an inexpensive small item, I still got charged the $7.95 or whatever even if it really only costs $4.00 to ship. I have many complaints about poshmark, but lowballing for $7 shipping doesnt make sense(?!). I accepted her offer because the stuff was used, but still in good condition. It has built in capability to share your store on social media with things like shoppable pins on Pinterest and Instagram, so you can share with your social media following. Stylaphile is an excellent resource for tips,tricks, thoughts, and trends, one I highly recommend any seller bookmark, so be sure to check back often. Its pretty silly I dont have to do that when I am buying online. You get what you put into it! I hope they will get your money back for you very soon!!! The buyer also used a sob story stating how shed NEVER do something like that because of medical necessity/disability. Im staying with PM for now but after reading all these comments, it sure is sad to know there are folks out there that will take advantage of others and ruin items they send back-just, wow. I havent sold or purchased anything on there for at least a year now. Be reasonable. Keep me posted on how its going for you and thanks again for the comment! i am out of there. Im just happy to unload things from my closet and see them get used again! Your interactions with Poshers should be friendly and positive. I was under the impression thst Pishmark had individual sellers putting up for sale their own item.What Ive seen, increasingly, is tons of sellers putting up for sale items they have bought off ebay and some of those cheaper, asian based stores that are all over the internet! then one return/case i dont think it was completely valid it wa about the size of shoe and i listed EU size instead of brazillain so she had a point -it was a gently used pair of slipper that cost her $4 and gained me 1.05 so I was totally ok sending her a no saying sorry your unhappy pls return no problem. Oh my! Because it sold for above $500 it had to be sent first to Poshmark offices for authentication. My items are not cheaply priced but I think they are fairly and accurately priced. Im now balancing poshmark, other platforms & starting my own site. I will now only buy on TheRealReal. It wasnt. I would recommend anyone that is considering joining to research!! Absolutely agree with everything you had said and your reasons for leaving posh. This is my second non-shipment of goods bought on this site. Since they dont have a way of addressing their use, they need to permit all sellers to use these tools, to level the playing field. Without a return policy, cover your a**, or so they teach us in law school. Mayra, have you tried Etsy? Ugh. So it is a fine balance of being inviting enough so that a person feels comfortable making a decent offer without opening the door to low ball offers. Lowball offers on everything, nasty comments, you name it. Bought it and didnt bother with the site until cleaning out after Christmas and thought Id try selling. However, the buyer contacted me and said that the glasses I sold her were scratched. Think Ill go back to my original plan of opening a Big Commerce store and use their multi-chanel option, since I also sell on eBay (and dont plan to quit). Yup. But when I found myself blocking people all day long, I just stopped accepting offers period. It just baffles me how people can do stuff like that! Its not as social as Posh and people cant comment under items (dm only), so you dont feel like you have to be there:) Mercari is also quicker to respond when there is a problem. Poshmark, Tradesy, Thredup results show up in google shopping searches. Theres a lot of room for improvement. I dont have time for that and I have perfect five star rating on over 100 sales. Also Birkenstock has very strict return policy anyway: take one minute to test them but show no signs of wear. Someone else bought it at the list price. So when a buyer does make a lowball offer, take the time to consider whether or not, first off, youre priced where you need to be. They never gave me a chance to defend my bag or my closet they just removed it . and get mad when you reject the offer . 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. Same with Free People. I dont have a lot of experience with buying wholesale, as most of my items either come directly out of my closet or are things I pick up at consignment stores that either dont fit me or that I think a customer would like. I explained what I just did here and said I would be happy to take more photos and post them. I had 298K followers and never a problem before! People lowball because they are cheap and want everything for free or close to it because the shipping isnt able to be asked for as free on the buyers side. I emailed many times. When I started to step away a little bit more my sales faltered. In summary, by keeping all of this in mind, the low ball offers that I receive, do not ever offend me. Hard to find a good place to sell my gently worn, quality clothing! And guess what? I have blocked that buyer from every being able to view my closet again and in the future (until I decide to close my closet) I will take photos of all items prior to shipping and make sure that the Poshmark shipping label is included in every shot!! Whenever you make a counter offer you have to be ready to walk away from the sale, because you may not get another offer for several months and three months from now when the item is still in your closet you may regret not accepting the offer you previously received!
