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. Sales. I was all over that jacket while I was packing it, using tissue and stuffing the sleeves with tissue, then putting into a clear sweater bag like you get from dry cleaning. As far as online frustration I feel ya! I know when I changed my password, it did not log me out of the app or ask for the new password. And Id advise using social media to drive traffic to your site as well. Sorry for all those with negative experience but I appreciate that you shared it. These scammers really make you lose faith in humanity! I think we should be able to review the buyer. I am so glad I found your site. but Poshmark has some algorithm system where after you have gone to all the trouble of posting your items, THEN they start their verification process when you go to print your first label to mail your item, and all they keep sending you is mobile info to get a text message. She hasnt responded and refused to accept the order even though it was her fault for not reading carefully. The guy asked for a PARTIAL refund because he said he just felt that he paid too much for it. I think Ive had the worst experience on poshmark yet. So,I message posh. Im going to carefully look at their closet and if its crap, I wont sell to them. It is not a great time for e-commerce startups. Really sad that there are people out there like that. I think I am going to dump the app after my last sale gets delivered. I live in the real world. Reddit and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to provide you with a better experience. Posh many times does not care about it being a prohibited item or even a replica because they get their 20% from the sale. It was even obvious in the comments that they were sold as the girl who bought them thanked me for them. Needless to say ,her story touched my heart ,it looked like she had a lot of buyers so I chose her to make my wig. Wow, this is very eye opening! I have the receipt. Im basically on PoshMark to sell. LOL! Hope this helps!! Posh will also examine the pics you posted online and the description. They just changed shipping now to 6.89 and never contacted me about that! This is an item that you can sell 1/8 tsp. I would recommend not doing any more than 4000 shares in a day. For designer items, Posh has the Concierge service for $39 to authenticate items but thats probably not foolproof either. This info has helped to confirm my decision not to sell on Poshmark.. Asking to trade when all they have is a pile of target and walmart clothes for coach and other $$ items. I was having some pretty great success although it was time consuming. I learned this my first month and never turned back. Or know why it would happen? Have them google When you order over seas products cheap quality than pictured make a listing in your closet explaining all of this! I quit Posh but then caved and signed up again. I end up making negative after the shipping, but I was just happy to help someone cause Im a nice person.What happens to me? If you have any friend whos worked at a clothing store, particularly during the holidays, I would bet anything they have plenty of stories that would shock you. And she is, of course entitled to her feelings, opinions and thoughts in regards to Posh. (I think 3 and up stars only show) I honestly would have taken pictures of it to show the stains and tagged her name stating it was a bigger problem than described. I just came across your post same thing here for my too. ?Can they keep my money. Thats making a decision about your life and thats awesome. A lot of times I state please read my description after they ask a question that is listed in my description, along with a smiley face and then here comes Im a rude whore that needs to learn how to treat people nicer to make more sales LOL. Literally sent out same day shipping for a customer NYE-eve. She has them numerous emails with all relevant details and it has met with no response. My computer is all the tech I need. Anyway I can go on. I am a frequent buyer on Poshmark, so understandably it was my first choice. Has the change over been difficult? Just impossible. I did notice that a lot of the items being sold seem high endish. And,although its possible your statement may be 100% true,I would argue that theres no way to prove it either way & I actually doubt that it is true in every case. Im thrilled that for some people, it works. Poshmark share jail is a good thing for the platform. I recently had an experience returned item that was messed up and totally used .I had photos to support that it was new and quality was good before the buyer sent it back used and crappy condition. Im still active & have made a few really good friends, but some things just kill me! The dress hung in her closet with plastic over it and then came to hang in my closet after listing it on Posh. Figure out top selling categories and subcategories based on season. I have a question. Well, someone posted it, and my closet was invaded by these, support group members. I guess no sales platform is perfect. The laundering care label on the side seam showed it was Forever 21. Ive reported the issue to the BBB. I contacted Poshmark stating the item was brand new but I just received a generic response If there are any problems with your returned order when you receive it back, please go to your order in the App or website, tap on Problem/Order Inquiry and report the issue through the Report Problem with Return. button. The problem is that there was no problem with the item to start with! Also there are so many in person places to sell like let it go on top of the usual. This place is not for high end designer items. I have a closet of very hiqh quality clothes and shoes mainly Italian and Im practically giving this stuff away for free on Poshmark. i purchased them from realreal (who we know is overly cautious about fakes).. buyet is claiming there are ripples in the shoes and put up some ridiculous photos showing nothing.. first, anyone who has worn loubs in very high heels understands that if you wear a heel that high, there is stress on the heel.. i sold a pair that i had resoled and one of the undersides was definitely strained, but repaired.. its a huge haze, i have a dad w dementia and dont feel like dealing w it.. if i simply accept the return without providing pics.. will i be banned from posh? That didnt happen, either. Reason #1. hire me, I love everything you said. I always check out the buyer before shipping. Its really gotten bad lately with 2 cases opened and 2 lost packages in the last 10 days. The could give a flying fig about any seller issues. Ive had to stop my notifications on this site as the alerts were getting to be too much! Now i did have one case opened up by a buyer trying to get something for free and Poshmark did not honor the buyers request at all. I had just had a case opened with a bundle I made, everything was good and ready to go. Ive been selling on ebay for 5 years now and this is true for me. I read with great interest your reasons for leaving Poshmark. I have done really well making a lot of money up until this month. I am not interested in running a garage sale on line. Unlike me, but Im over it. 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. Or at *this* time. She is claiming I sent a top with iron burn marks! I have about 200 items on poshmark and get one or two sales here and there. I did not put a lot of things in my closet because I wanted to see how it worked. Thanks for your suggestions of better alternatives to PM! I dont really have a way of proving it except with my record of sales and not having any problems. And I got endless questions on every item, even though I had described it completely. I also use Tradesy. Then I noticed people only offer a fraction of that. I was just wondering where else can I sell my jewelry and get a good traffic. So this $185 dress which I sold for $95 is ruined!! I really need to cancel it because I made a mistake in ordering. It was great while it lasted. Not sure which freaky post that name was on The one name that responded to 2 posts i mentioned was listed as Mark7369847548. Hope that helps! If you find yourself in share jail too often, there can be some long-term consequences. There are rude ignorant young girls on there that get angry when you reply to them or ask them questions as well. I just think the market is so saturated that its super hard to get a sale! I get the same problems with unethical people everywhere. All of my ratings (I have close to 300) have been 5 star except for 2. Be cautious!! I say nothing about the other person at all. Thats the risk of shopping online !! Lol. I, fortunately, only bought one on the Last One Reduced Price Listing by a Boutique Posher. Major Time Suck big time !!! The bonus items were worth more than the items you paid for. Some people respond, other dont. I feel trapped! I feel like its more or less a pyramid scheme at times. The beautiful shirt showed up in my doorstep with a note of apology of sorts from the seller. I have been ready to venture out to a commission free and offer free selling environment but didnt know where to start or what platform to trust next really. One of the embassador Poshers bought my Burberry rain boots for $50 (a great deal), and later on filed a complaint saying that the boots smelled horrible and that they had stains and blah, blah, blah she even said that she wanted to keep them at no cost even though I asked her to return them for her money back. Not just for the brilliant content rich posts but also read the comments!!! All of what you have stated is the issues I have. I recently sold a Chloe Marcie Bag and after I sold it, it got shipped to them to authenticate. 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? The guesswork put into the algorithms of Poshmark is a job in and of it self. My daughter emailed them to find out how to get the bag back. Im also happy to read the comments here regarding other sites because I dread eBay with all the waiting while PM seemed quick, but if I must, Ill go back there and try Shopify. Join. I am still using the app, but I will not be buying any bags! How to avoid share jail and still make lots of sales on Poshmark. Anything in dealing with the public is going to have problems but certainly having those people asking you to model something would be the straw that broke the back for me I wouldnt have anything to do with them I wouldnt even answer them but I was having many questions about how the site function and Im glad I came across your experience. Its not what you make (Gross), its what You Keep (Net). No response. How about the time wasters who want to communicate offsite without any intention of buying anything? I will only ever use Poshmark to buy because the prices are great and the variety is nice because sometimes eBay doesnt have any listings for a particular item I want but I cant be bothered to sell on Poshmark and this post confirms it. For more information, please see our Good luck with your site! Then it seems as if only certain people share certain people items. I have been selling for five months. The thing that gets me is, Im not Instagram savvy and Im looking for a way to reach that market. How about silly girl talk on a rainy Sunday afternoon? I think Im done with poshmark for now. Good luck on your store! I will now only buy on TheRealReal. I came across your article while trying google how to block unwanted Tradesy buyers. Thanks! This was interesting reading. I had a brand new dr scholls flat for $8 and this Lowballers offered me 5! as far as the Posh parties I do not engage in them. I have a large following as well and have sold many items. You can get back to sharing tomorrow. 2. changed her mind and put a hole in my bag. That said, Im just done with yet another form of online bullying/abuse/scams where trolls end up the winners. Hi! She didnt get it in time for her party so she opened a case. The most recent experience is awful. Then you can state your side, they state theirs and photos are exchanged. Their shipping rates are high and so is their commission rate. Then my package came, and one of the tops was all pilly and had several small holes in it. You might learn something about Poshmark algorithms. Though Poshmark paid me the money, the buyer was able to get a refund and my item!!!! I certainly dont miss low ballers. I received no reply, but she now has the jacket marked not for sale. I grew my closet, made many sales, became a suggested user with a 5 star rating. Ive been on Posh for about 2 years and Ive been selling things here and there. If the gray Shared Successfully banner doesnt pop up, youre in share jail. I am annoyed. Im so livid. Recently a buyer opened a case on a blouse she purchased from me claiming it was stained & damaged. Tradesy handles all returns on their own. If so how there are no email addresses to market to them. Thank you. I sold those NWT item only for $10.00 to get my feet wet and get my 5 stars only to find out that no one can even see those rating.

Im new to poshmark and I was reading your article and Im actually glad to find something that describes the cons of the app. Not familiar with Shopify. Although I have dealt with many nice and honest sellers as well!!!! I am trying to decide if I should block her from buying any future items from me. Poshmark is such a joke of a business. Getting defensive that just makes one suspicious! Bullying, gaming up on me. These promotional events include ways to score discounts, make sales, and win prizes. They work very hard and this system is actually very self serving to Poshmark. Yeap. There are sellers on Poshmark who are lazy, entitled, unprofessional and unethical. Its takes waayyyy more time maintaining an actual store than Posh! now this just leaves a sick feeling in my stomach. I know what things cost. I decided to take the plunge today, to set up shop on Poshmark. Bundle & Save! Free shipping AND returns. 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. So I tried to relist all my listings but Poshmark won't even let me do that! Posted my 5 items and all sorts of people started following and sharing me and I immediately sold one item. We will not be restoring your account as we require users to follow our returns guideline. Still trying to wrap my head around it all.but I want to say thank you for writing this.I needed to hear it from someone else that Im waiting my time on Posh. Has anyone else had this problem. They dont look at the fact of the effort you put in. Not sure if i would want to sell on the site. If I get banned because of this comment. I have all 5 stars Never knew that cool! Their customer service has been a complete turn off for me and Im done using them after the earning from my last sale come through. Like I posted a hand mixer for $5 just to get rid of it fast and someone send me a $3 offer. but they still want to offer $5. I prob have 20 photos of every package. I bet I have spent 8 plus hours a day on there sharing and all that other nonsense. Im trying to run my closet as a business, but the endless sharing, posting and responding to comments without ever so much as a thank you is wearing me out. Yes, if you count the number of hours you spend trying to sell a $10 pair of pants, you definitely havent earned a profit. and offer no information on how these amounts are calculated to be deducted on our behalf. 2. I started an Instagram page for the brand (@ShopStylaphile) and also use the blog and other social media channels to drive traffic. 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. It doesnt even make sense that they give $5 dollars credit when shipping is $6.49 its better not to even use a referral code. I havent done anything wrong. my poshmark closet disappearedoffice furniture liquidators chicago June 14th, 2022 mazda 3 2021 bose sound system Still cannot seem to delete my account though, and really dont want to be associated with a company who is not accountable to their sellers, has no basic business ethics, and ridiculous customer service. No comments. Thanks!! Thank you for making this outlet to bring light to the truths of Buyer and Seller experience on Poshmark. Poshmark Didnt care about my item and they give me just $10 when the bag cost $70 on my posh! It was a surprisingly emotional experience to realize I fell for this. There is no money to be made getting into the middle of a dispute. Seller messaged me an hour after item was delivered asking for me to accept it. I have 5 pairs of Miss Me Jeans and 2 miss me shorts Im trying to sell that it. Etsy has the safest /best protection for sellers. Totally understand. 7. Not California!! I will tell you that I dont get nearly as much traffic or interest on my Shopify site than I did on Poshmark. To access your closet QR Code in the app: Go to your My Poshmark Tab (@username). I have Traumatic Brain Injury, put so much time and money into Poshing. It all like someone whos in a terrible marriage but isnt willing to leave. I had a sale on Mercari and posted it as not for sale and typed in Sold in the description on Poshmark. so come on down and give me a reason to put you out of business fast. I would love to open my own site and have actually had one before but the marketing was where I couldnt figure out how to spread the word about it. And then Poshmark takes a hefty cut. They put the header Hurry your Free Shipping Ends Tonight in my news header so I bought something, but didnt get free shipping. Just started listing more than one item there in February and its been very consistent. Nothing sold. So expect questions. Like items to get notified of sales or price drops. Thank you for this article, its very helpful and makes you really think about why someone is wasting their time to rush off to ship things if people dont even bother to accept it right away. Hi Gina, Ive actually gotten traffic to ShopStylaphile.com from Poshmark because I created an image stating that my closet had moved and posted it in my Poshmark closet. Ever wonder why theres no seller protection on PoshMark? I getting back to my life now. She was ticked I insisted on $6 after she kept offering $4. One girl told me I actually block more people per day than I end up following because of rude behavior. Im glad I took the time to read these comments regarding these sites because now I can narrow down the ones to stay away from!! 1. But i checked out your website. My stuff is just regular everyday clothes & shoes it seems. For other nice things that I dont want to deal with, I use The RealReal. Only to *new* Poshers. You definitely have a huge audience on eBay. Thanks for all the great insight and perspectives. You get what you put into it! So not sure if its their revenge on me? When she received it, she filed a case with Poshmark help stating that the zipper didn't work. So if you are listing for men or children, you must specify in your description or else you can end up eating a $25 shipping cost on a return GUCCI shoes worth $500. is your closet showing blank? 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. 4C Bond Maintenance Clarifying Shampoo, Olaplex No. 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!!!! Obviously, youll want to tone it down a bit so you dont risk getting your closet shut down. amking45 @dhampyre hey are you bored or something???? Buyer gets it and immediately wants a refund because of said noted, photographed, and described damage! (Some of them). Why in the world would I need a store credit for a store where my account is suspendedyeah makes no sense to me. 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. Last week, I sold a Coach bag in great condition other than a blob of clear nail polish that had dried on the interior zip pocket and slight wear on the embroidered CsBOTH of which were pictured and mentioned in the description. In both of those cases, I had Posh cancel the orders and let the buyers keep the items for free because it wasnt worth it to me, but really if a case is opened against you once in every hundred sales or so thats not too bad. I have become frustrated quickly with Posh. Hi, I have shipped clothes before and most fits in smaller envelopes sometimes for around $3. 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. So,I had weigh loss surgery in 2013,which worked out wonderful except for the fact of always having fine hair,I lost a lot more. I would recommend starting your own Shopify store or selling on Depop. Most of the advice was to ridiculously raise prices in order to corner the market. There is fraud EVERYWHERE. I live in a smoke free, pet free home. She charged me 250 .I get the wig and its horrible,there are threads hanging out of it,its just not what the picture that I ordered looked like. I was working the graveyard shift for the first year that I sold On PoshMark and made roughly over 180 sales. The sale frequently gets canceled. As strictly a buyer, I cringe to hear these stories but always suspected that there are potentially steep challenges to selling items on these platforms. If this company ever goes public Im buying stock! Poshmark doesnt have a 1-800 number and doesnt responds to emails. My first four sales were all shipped within one day and I received 5 star ratings for all of them. Then she goes as far as posting a picture of my profile and some police report she claims to have filed.
