Good luck! What a joke! Poshmark is an e-commerce marketplace where users can buy and sell used, new, and vintage clothing and accessories from individuals and boutiques. 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. Id been wondering about selling a lot of my stuff online (Ive got a LOT of beautiful clothes that lifestyle wise, I have no need for anymore), but after reading everyones comments here, I see none of us are really having any luck. Plus, you csn expect to be then attacked by the sellers posse of mean girl Posh- buds!! Not really what I was looking for doing with my time (I actually have a full-time job). If I waited to share my items at 5:30 a.m., I missed PoshMarks prime time hour. My listings disappeared on Poshmark help? I think given the fact that Posh expects you to sell items at least at 50% off retail, then they want you to offer a discount on top of that and then Posh takes 20% off the top and NOW they have made it so you can make offers on bundles you might as well give your stuff away!! Also i feel we should be able to rate buyers as well. Youve expressed so many of my frustrations as well! I unfortunately ordered on Poshmark on two occasions. Hello? In this case, it restricts people who are sharing much more than what is considered reasonable in a single day. I am so frustratedfor $20! When I started to step away a little bit more my sales faltered. It happens all of the time. If I didnt like it, or it didnt fit, well, I knew the rules when I made my purchase, and would have just passed it along to a friend or something. I however, am photographing extensively anything bought from my closet before shipping!! The ridiculous reason why!? Once you enable Vacation Hold, a banner will be displayed on your closet AND every listing will be marked as Not For Sale. So frustrating & trying to not take it personally and/or quit since I have 2 more boxes of clothes coming to resell. Hi Joi! Does she have something to hide? The dress arrived while I was working and it was three days before I was even able to open the package and examine the dress. CSV. Totally understand. I have filed a case against the return but days have passed and Ive only received bs automated responses. Some people respond, other dont. I could get more at a garage sale. She is a graduate of Columbia Journalism School and San Francisco State University. I get a lot of traffic to my ShopStylaphile site through my blog, Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram accounts. 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! The jar has about 10% left. I had done nothing to the jacket. She bought a $15 kylie Jenner lipgloss tube and when she received her package she claimed I had sent her an empty box. My sales were good and I was getting 5 stars. People want authentic but want to pay $5.00? Makes it hard for sellers that are actually selling authentic things. Did anyone else not know this or am I the only one? Thank you for suggesting Shopify, I am strongly considering it now. Ive been on Posh for about 2 years and Ive been selling things here and there. I have 73k followers and Im a Suggested User. Yet, Ive heard nothing. They failed to see that the damage first just looked like fuzz. My PM days are done!!! This thing looks like it was probably made in China with the cheapest quality fabric available certainly the thinnest! Sometimes its called Poshmark shadow-banned (a term popularized by Instagram). That is why they like sites like ThredUP. Then I get another email the following day saying the reason for return was that the jacket had an odor. When Poshmark finally got around to a reply they told me they couldnt help me. Costly? Using the site I bought a whole bunch of stuff that was just fun and tempting to get and so inexpensive made me wonder about how the girls did that it seem to take so much time. By facilitating these scams, Poshmark itself is condoning this type of criminal activityyes, thats what it isand these buyers know it. My daughter emailed them to find out how to get the bag back. Thank you so much for getting back to me. Once opened, select the Account tab at the bottom right corner. The first came about when a buyer kept lowballing me on a pair of Jessica Simpson shoes. When they buy it payment is already sent through and cleared.. Only because of the comments mentioned here where buyers dispute the item, damage it or try to take advantage somehow. Decent customer service is a key factor no matter if you are a Buyer or a Seller. I bought a pair of CL so Kate 120m asked the seller normal questions but one shoe in the picture looked bigger so I further inquired and the seller said oh its probably just the angle so I offered 3 x before she finally accepted and then I get them and it took a few strolls around my living room to realize that these heel heights were not the same !!! Guess what? Which is why most all of my 4th pics are close ups of the tag!! No Real Protection For the Seller. I am a frequent buyer on Poshmark, so understandably it was my first choice. Thumbs dont move that fast. Im anxious about going about it, but the cut & some of the other things I disagree with are getting to be a bit much & I cant compete because of their cut. Poshmark closet disappeared? My 10yr old just bought a DVD under my account. Recently a buyer was able to cancel a transaction AFTER I shipped the item!!! I am professional and just discuss the item. I am an avid buyer and only had one bad experience. r/poshmark Join 28 days ago I received my 1099k. I just think it is ridiculous to complain about that when you got the shirt probably for $3!! Since then, Ive sold almost 40 items, which I thought was pretty good in comparison to eBay, which Ive been doing for years. This IS NOT the bag I soldyou cant even see the entire bag shes claiming is mineand yet Poshmark approved the return! I was told I NEED a Facebook shop first. I came home and opened the package a week later and they were SUPER worn!!! 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. What about the sellers costs for packaging materials, etc.? It also explains why there are so many listings with unanswered comments, so all of these stories help people like me understand. Your Poshmark account will then be deleted. I spent days on this. Well, that is all well and good for you, but there are people who *do* want to make real money. Thanks for your suggestions of better alternatives to PM! I had a girl purchase a bundle of VS items for a very low price. I have about 200 items on poshmark and get one or two sales here and there. Again, there should be more seller protection offered by Poshmark when it comes to trolls like these and Poshmark scams in general. Ive recently started selling on Poshmark and I do admit that its super slow getting sales on this site. She found an inconspicuous spot to soil the jacket. ROFL! Was going to try eBay but I also feel it will get lost in the masses and have been contemplating Shopify since I have such a passion about what I want to do. Like items to get notified of sales or price drops. To find Trends, go to the Shop tab, scroll down until you see Trends, and swipe through to view the different collections available. Usually I would just accept the return and avoid an unhappy buyer. I asked the seller if it was authentic, she said yes. Is there a way to do this? And then there are the trolls. Youd think theyd be a little more courteous. Definitely, a scientist/techie type who has no fashion background; in addition, when you read his various statements, hes very theoretical. Never knew that cool! i am so over Poshmark! Because that is another person who you have no control over. I have photographic proof of how my item was sent and told them I will file with AMEX since they will protect my resale of this bag that I purchased using their card. Usually I sell my items on Ebay, however I thought that my clothing might sell better on a site that was more targeted to, well clothing. Be cautious!! Just impossible. I think you have to understand why Posh usually sides with the buyer when they open a case. I have had 5 cases in all my years on Posh and I won all 5 against me. Im currently selling on pm And it can be time consuming sharing. The could give a flying fig about any seller issues. I have since had two additional sales that have five star ratings so but I feel that it is irrelevant to Posh. I have a Louie Vuitton handbag that I was going to put on Poshmark, but I wont do it now. But, Im stuck. Hello, I complete 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. Hope that helps! That should keep you in good standing with Poshmark, and give your items the attention they deserve. Sorry for all those with negative experience but I appreciate that you shared it. New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. Haha yea it happened during mail process? I left feedback for the seller and gave her a 3-star rating. There is a monthly fee to set up your site on Shopify of around $30. I even asked the girl if she wanted, she could just cancel the order and keep it when she gets it just so I dont get a bad review ( I have 5 stars so far and worked hard for it) It just isnt fun for a good seller. I have only had 3 cases opened and 1 was for sending the wrong size shoes and the other was for sending the wrong color shorts both were my mess-up and i honored the return no problem at all. I know when I changed my password, it did not log me out of the app or ask for the new password. That also will only communicate through email. blah. Again, after reading all these stories, Im sure it wont turn out well for my case based on Poshmarks inability to support the sellers that actually make the company moneybut Im sure theyd listen to a lawsuit asking for damages/compensation. Best wishes to you all, and thanks for listing great items. I even wrote a very nice message on her page apologizing, asking what I could do to make it right and she did not respond! 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 also let my regular customers from Poshmark know that my closet had moved. Surprise the voice mail is full. So tip for having your own closet business: work fast and avoid scrolling for items to purchase for yourself! Your submission to r/Poshmark has been removed because your account is too new or your karma is too low. Just wondering if it is OK to list on more than 1 website. Ill check it out! Great job! I ran across your blog and Im happy to see that I am not the only one who keeps getting low ball offers like no tomorrow. I had 32 listings on poshmark and they all disappeared at the same time. I have a successful online store but some weeks I kill it on posh more than my store! Of the site, she said they didnt break any rules. I will say this though, as a grown woman who has experienced life from many facets, dont call me hon, sweetie, dearie or whatever other cutesy term you want to address me. Hope your store is still doing well, as Im sure you are! If youre selling less expensive stuff, eBay might be the way to go. Did you find the transition difficult? When you buy used, naturally you expect to pay a lot less. I dont like that poshmark doesnt stand for the sellers. The one in my size, the seller only shows stock photos. I complained to Poshmark and they sided with her. The seller contacted me and said her entire closet was thrifted and apologized profusely. She ordered on 3/15, she RECEIVED the item on 3/19. In the 4th month I hear back from Posh stating because they believe the sunglasses were fake they cant help me. The entire format is changing and the behavior of most sellers leads me to firmly believe the whole thing is bound to implode. While my sales have picked up, I still get the ridiculous Lowballs like we are at the flea market, and there are times I get infuriated. hi! Both times the sellers did not ship at all. I am so sorry to read this. You dont realize how much time youre committing to this platform until you stop. I feel poshmark staff needs some kind of guide book to fallow. Hi Sherri. As a buyer, Make a Deal Days is a great time to score deals. Youve inspired me to get off my bum and actually bring my online boutique to life. I started on Posh and left, due to constant issues.Ive been on Mercari since 2015 and like their platform much better. . Because of those experiences, I am now extremely cautious when purchasing from places like Poshmark and eBay. But my concern was that many comments here mentioned a last straw situation that made them quit Poshmark for good. For example, (real experience; comment section): Buyer name (myself): dhampyre I was absolutely crushed. A lady friend referred me to Poshmark. The guesswork put into the algorithms of Poshmark is a job in and of it self. No response does not work for me if I must hand over an unworn item with tags attached for authentication. I dont think most people value their time appropriately. I have like 450,000 followers on Poshmark but I really want to transition into my own store online. Scammers everywhere, and the fees are much too high. The most frustrating issue for me is, people dont know the difference between NEW UNUSED and excellent used condition, or pre-loved condition. The first time I was active for three years and did pretty well, however, when Poshmark opened their platform to all markets, enter the trolls, the scammers, the perverts, and the con artists. (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. My bag was ripped by the buyer (maybe she regretted her purchase). Any advice I would appreciate ps great IG page I just started following you. Thankfully, Poshmark updated to 8 pictures so that helps a lot with posting pics of authentic merchandise. They take weeks to answer your questions and Ive had to cancel a bunch of orders because they failed to ship within seven days. r/poshmark 4 yr. ago. It was even obvious in the comments that they were sold as the girl who bought them thanked me for them. my listings disappeared!! : r/poshmark - reddit Does anyone know if the buyer returns the item damaged can you reopen the case? Looking into this. I would recommend anyone that is considering joining to research!! It will pay off in the long run! She has no listings. I work full time plus some and am a single mother, so I pass up time wasters as much as possible. I applaud that. I was working on my 10th listing when I got the "something went wrong please try later" message when I went to post. I received an email stating it was removed because it was counterfeit! I posted on her page and also on the thread on bag and said can you give me more info. So she makes her accusation and I respond saying I packaged it and even sent her the receipt. Some of them Ive been told by high-sales sellers (upwards of $50k per month). My "Meet Your Posher" Post is also missing. 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. but they still want to offer $5. They dont charge any fees at all to sell your stuff! Now their postal is more than $7! I am documenting my packaging & item just to be safe. Only recently (within the past week) did someone finally answer my emails and sent me an address to return the dress, not the shoes. Boom, done. Thanks for your comment. I explained that I bought a Free People jacket and it was too small. Posh doesnt seem to have a system in place to protect the seller!! What they really mean is exposing this activity breaks down the trust and integrity of users. I see many closets where you know the item was sold on a different site. She is claiming I sent a top with iron burn marks! Once opened, select the Account tab at the bottom right corner. That is just disturbing! I now have 399,568 users and I am a top rated seller however, the sales have dropped significantly and the buyers have become more and more rude and downright nasty. Not sure if this has been mentioned, but Ive had some freaky good success on Tradesy with my purses/wallets. Thank you so much for posting this article. I think Im ready to quit poshmark too. Thanks! I just read this last week and breathed a sigh of relief that I have been lucky so far. 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. Thank you for this post. I hope you keep us posted on what happens. Later, Alexandria. You can determine a set amount you want to spend each day with AdWords, so the budget is up to you. I am currently on Poshmarkbut have a hard time dealing with their promos. Tradesy is great for High Designer Labels and only women clothing. (3) The return was actually denied by Poshmark so Im definitely thankful to be done with that mess!! Last, shopping and selling online is all about trust. The label was undeliverable. Because it sold for above $500 it had to be sent first to Poshmark offices for authentication. SMH . They never gave me a chance to defend my bag or my closet they just removed it . So I went to eBay Mercari etc. With no sharing, following, or any kind of maintenance at all. I just feel so cheated as I am getting back something damaged. Another was a brand new rose gold watch she got next to nothing!! I only once had an issue and thank God it was resolved on my favor. Its ridiculous. I just sold a Coach bag recently with many upclose and clear pictures and a detailed description. You definitely have a huge audience on eBay. Will I need to invest in Adwords and really push the marketing side with Shopify? Or of *this* kind of listing. Maybe I should just take all my inventory and have an awesome bonfire at the beach. Is there a way to logout of all devices logged into poshmark? On the up side all have had a ton of nice people and buyers.. Im on the fence. Im glad you created youre own store! So in this situation mercari shouldnt have approved the refund because he has clearly admitted that he was just unhappy with his purchase price! New comments cannot be posted and votes cannot be cast. Any other places I can check out? Yeap. My addiction of buying has been ridiculous and I only ever had one issue and they did refund me- someone sent me a leather jacket that was dry rotted split cracked and shredded! Thank you for your post, I think Im going to try another site. posh is crap. Just google Poshmark reviews and see for yourself. I agree with you unless it comes to high end, in-demand and hard-to-find designer items. Took a huggggee break on there. Ive quit Poshmark, too. No. It keeps spammers away, and levels the playing field. I looked on line and its illegal for a minor to do this and them not do nothing. You also can send the pictures to posh and have them disput it, and refund you or have you send it back to her. So I dont know what I will do with all my stuff, but Ill figure it out. Gets to customer Tuesday, despite biblical weather and plague events, and the once-a-year holiday. Unfortunately there are sellers who only post stock photos and those who dont like questions. Im going to give all my remaining active closet to good homes at the end of this week. After being an active seller for 2 years, and then quitting cold turkey, it was only then that I realized that it felt like I had been in a cult. Secondly I sold a pair of knit boots for very cheap because they were not ugg just a cheap look a like and made sure to list that in description due to the fact that they were listed under ugg for exposure. I deleted my account about 2 years ago (also out of frustration and disgust with their business practices) and though they tried to entice me to stay, I was able to completely separate from them. Thanks for starting this thread. I tried the dress on, thinking that they may not be as noticeable while the dress was actually worn, but they were very visible. He is still out there after a few months. Lowballers on Poshmark are the worst. I am thinking Poshmark has deleted these things, and I can't figure out why. My stuff is beautiful and in perfect condition, many of the things are boutique items, but I never cared for high-end designers stuff and that seems to be all consignment shops cater to and you cant trust THEM either. Now I have someone asking me how I could sell it and not have the SOLD banner across it that Posh puts on when it sells. Poshmark said that they had received pictures of the item. (Theres a little I tried emailing Poshmark about it and they only told me how to Cancel the Order from the website when I told them the website will not let me and I need help canceling. I packaged it VERY carefully and sent it on its way without much more thought. that I shop at sample/warehouse sales. Im fairly new to Posh. Time to quit I think. Dont respond back to me one said and then she kept going. Thank you for making this outlet to bring light to the truths of Buyer and Seller experience on Poshmark. Thinking she thinks I took it off line and sold it which is not true. With so many tools at your disposal, we thought itd be helpful to create a one-stop guide to see exactly what these features and tools have to offer. Yet another reason why I quit. 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.
