I spent days on this. Given the high Poshmark fees that sellers have to pay, this is simply unacceptable. I hope you keep us posted on what happens. I just quit Poshmark for the SAME reason. The seller then cancelled the transaction. I do see a lot of items noted as sold on Merc or sold on tradsey. Click that and you will see the "block user" option. I wish the authenticators on PM knew how to authenticate!! I just shipped out a new, unworn item to the buyer who obviously decided they didnt like it and claimed it was worn and with pilling! The sellers on there have a much higher chance of actually shipping my stuff. You follow the same steps outlined above, and then you would click on -> Unblock User. But Poshmark sided with her an thats total crap ! (Some of them). 3-4 occasions where something was not as described or damaged when I got it and they accept the return or gave me a posh Credit in one instance but in other cases they have totally back me up. seriously WTF. Makes the item virtually impossible to sell and the seller is screwed. They failed to see that the damage first just looked like fuzz. It made me see a VERY ugly side to the community- bc her harassing me seemed to be out of jealousy and anger. I was looking to buy one, and I really wouldnt mind if its damaged inside. There are too many unethical buyers, trolls and Poshmark scams. I had a brand new dr scholls flat for $8 and this Lowballers offered me 5! People logged on by the thousands to sell clothes for cash.

I have a question. But then again, for a buyer, the opposite may be true. Last, shopping and selling online is all about trust. I had success selling there, but I knew that you cant make everyone happy and was expecting to get a complaint anytime. I was so sad to read all these experiences above, I too love my followers and have actually made some close friendships via Posh but it looks like it is time to move to another platform. what else would i do ? ) Y agree. I have a Shopify shop (still under construction). I sold a brand new Pinup Girl dress there was not a thing wrong with it. Im beginning to think it would just be easier to delete it. Im working on a competitive app that will do just that and more! But they have approved the request and the bag is now in transit back to me. 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. Wow, this is very eye opening! I just started using Poshmark. One seller said that she had to be kidding to offer a price that was 80 percent off the bundled price! I very stupidly asked her in a comment what happened to them, they were new That was cause for harassment and I am now banned. Complete disaster. Lisa, Im hearing more and more stories like this, and I too, had my share of sales that were canceled by Poshmark because once I purchased, the seller never responded. Endlessly. Thank you . Most items I have sent tops , pants and shoes are less then 3lbs and normally would cost under $3.00 to send yet the buyer is forced to spend either $6.79 or $ 5.00 unless the seller wants to pay shipping. And Poshers damaging an item to get a full refund? I have a large following as well and have sold many items. However Im doing same as you! If the cost of the item is higher than $15, Poshmark takes a 20 percent cut. Thanks for this insightful article. Launched in 2011, it's been around for more than 10 years, which means it's well-established and has policies in place to protect everyone who uses its platform. On one wholesale portal I think it was the bullet necklaces, they give so much to charity I suggested Posh give the 20% they make off each sale to said charity! I guess she didnt realize that I could cancel the order on my end, but now I have to relist everything. Good luck! Besides that this site is for those who have quit Posh, not those singing its praises! As a buyer of poshmark I found that items I bought werent quite as described every time I purchased 3 x I figured hey thats what you get for buying on line but this last one was a doosey! now this just leaves a sick feeling in my stomach. I am trying to figure the best venue for resale. I get a lot less than doing it myself on eBay but none of the hassle. You certainly dont see anyone sending $5 offers to Macys, Target, or Zara, do you?. Replicas are forbidden on Poshmark and I report them every time I see them. First it blows my mind that people will pay for designer dusty bags and empty shoe boxes but hey, that thats just me. Im tired of low balls and comments on my listings about where to get it cheaper. Although the buyer had no postings or reviews, this person contacted Poshmark accusing my the item sold of fake. I emailed Poshmark Support and asked the question but havent heard back from them yet but I dont see how they can make a seller make them an exclusive. Hi Diana! My daughter emailed them to find out how to get the bag back. I am annoyed. I also received a blouse that was listed as free people. In real life I own a business the owners of the mall would never lock me out of my shop. I bought a domain from GoDaddy and just now started on Shopify. Poshmark is kind of time consuming and I try to look elsewhere where I have more control and not having to deal so much with the buyer How can people see my items? overall Im having an okay experience .Ive sold less than $200 in the last 6 months which is not great but again its bc a lot of people on Poshmark like you said want something for practically nothing!! Now their postal is more than $7! The buyer has no profile or closet. I just started selling and already I seem to have gotten a fraud situation. Hence, Im having a liquidation sale. (I suppose thats a response I should have expected from a young girl with very little sense of responsibility) Its for teenage girls looking to get $2 gap shirts New With Tags. I not only lost a sale but they made sure that I cannot resell the item!!! So sorry you had to experience that! Im so livid. . After years of success buying and selling on the Poshmark app, I was done. Looking into this. Ive heard a lot of similar complaints about fakes being sold on Poshmark. Im @relovestyle (come say hi) and I will NOT be leaving Posh anytime soon. I want my buyers to love what they get. Either she is really NEW or shes just starting over under an different name!!! I tried selling on Poshmark this year. 3. I wont stick around much longer . Twenty items I dont have to discount -90% off and still have unhappy people. Poshmark needs to shut down inactive closets and they need to penalize sellers for failing to ship. The other time the buyer was just full of it, but you know, I really dont want to have unhappy customers. Its infuriating. And the trades gone bad, the hackers who stole money from Poshmark users. I have never had this problem before so when the buyer left me a comment asking if I was going to ship I was confused and looked into the matter post office is a little behind updating and I felt so badof course the one time I dont wait in the long line to get a receipt!!! Ive had two situations like this. So if they buy it on a Saturday afternoon and your local PO is closed it doesnt get shipped until Monday and, if Monday is a Federal Holiday then it gets shipped Tuesday and , that is held against your record of shipping even though you had no control over the days the PO was closed . Considering another site. At first it was slow but made $500 in June.. No problems & 5 stars on all buys. I have been trying to get this one jacket which is fairly expensive. Long story short: someone bought it, said it had snags, took photos and sent to Posh! Honestly I think part of the reason people lowball is the absurbly high shipping that raises the price. I would never sell a flawed item- especially to that degree! Sure enough they opened a case once I was on vacation and sent them back, fine no big deal. $270 for a dooney disney bag. I was new- i agreed. Then in May, I listed many more items; also joined the parties and follow groups. I dont want to continue with a company that operates this way but I also like the easiness of listing and that the shipping is paid for by the buyer and that Poshmark provides a label. That Too! Ugh frustrating but not losing hope! I know you can sell on Pinterest as well:) Or even just share your listings so people can find the link. And I have the clear pictures of the front and back of the item, so when zoomed in you would see everything . I want to do my own web how do that works. The strap of one shoe was completely rubbed off as though sandpaper was taken to them. Too many scammers and creeps!! Unlike me, but Im over it. Thanks for making me feel better about my over reaction! Creeps asking for smelly socks with bacteria and toe jam. so come on down and give me a reason to put you out of business fast. Did you have pay a ton of money on SEO? She claimed it arrived with holes in it. I use the blog, social media and Google AdWords to drive traffic to ShopStylaphile. Ive been going round and round with them. I automatically became a posh ambassador a few weeks ago. Thats making a decision about your life and thats awesome. Once i use those words you bet these people change real quick. I first signed up with Posh a little over 3 weeks ago, and I am BURNT OUT! What I mean by that is often time ebay will take the side of the customers over the sellers. However, I did have the same experience related in reason 1 with a dust bag I sold. I dont know too many things that are just off about POSH! Then you have to wait 3 days for your funds to be released. You all know how awful the communication is. Thx for sharing your story! Best of luck. I decided to join a Facebook support group, see if I could learn something. I completely agree! Its quite rewarding leaving all the drama of Poshmark behind. I have shared to FB, I bought a mannequin to make my pics more professional. The unfortunate story is- now I have a ripped handbag and it was smashed into a small package which also ruined the shape. I agree with you 100%. I appreciate your thoughts here. 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)! Thank you for the information about other options. So I asked if I could please see photos of the actual jacket. I do have a question though with you being so successful with the site; It does seem that to be successful on the site you have to sell mostly name brand, so where do ppl find these name brand items for low enough prices to mark them up high enough to make a profit? 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. If you have any advice about what direction i should go please let me know. I have been on posh for 6 mo. Once I finally get my payment I am shutting my closet down. Hi! I was so excited to try them on. Not strictly a safe assumption. I was nice at first and pointed out that #1- I am listing a ton of NWT stuff well be low retail and even wholesale prices, not making money on a lot of things. I asked poshmark to take a look at them, and protect their sellers more. Etsy has the safest /best protection for sellers. Poshmark has a cultic following like Amway did. Everything youve said is 100% true!!!! Ive sold 5 things on posh. Well Poshmark authorizes the RETURN !!!!! I just think the market is so saturated that its super hard to get a sale! Just browsing through the brands, i was horrified by multiple posts in 10.Deep that appear to be selling people or offering their services. But most alarming was a picture of a young boy with the user name listed as hump87. Poshmark updated on the mobile and now my log in information doesnt work. She also has comments from other poshmark accounts calling her out on being a bad seller and harassing them to which she responds by calling them names like whore and piece of shit. Its crazy and again poshmark does nothing. I cant invest anymore of my valuable time is some MANIPULATIVE website thats made up fancy language about sharing POSH LOVE and other B.S. Also, I take measurements and always post. I call that a win . And half the time they dont respond so youre just wasting your time chasing after ghosts. I would try eBay and Tradesy before doing a Shopify account. It slows you down a little, but it has saved me on enough occasions for it to be worth it. whatever that may mean?. Buyer asked NO questions, asked for NO additional photos, did no offers, took forever to get for some reason and then opened a case. Which is frustrating when you are dealing with a substantial sum. We will see how this goes. When I clicked on the listing to put in for the return it said no listings available. And forget about offering gallery-quality jewelry on Poshmark. I want something more plug & play. But what drew me to Poshmark was the ability to start crafting a brand image but you can only go so far with such limited parameters. That would leave me with 2.50 not enough to buy the tape to close your box, lady! Sure enough, she gave me a 1 star rating and checked off every available area for improvement. otherwise its just wasting space i your closet I love PM, but have to laugh at some of the overpriced items!!! Some poachers are very rude with how the address their potential buyers. It makes me sad. I could write a war and peace length description on eBay yet with posh only a couple paragraphs. I was a fulltime seller on ebay from about 2003 until 2007. I think I am going to close down my PM closet soon.By they way I am following you on i instagram ( I have no idea what do there, I have so much to learn from LOL ) Thank you and have a good day!!~Moni. The sharing. Also i agree with everyones frustration. Besides all the fake purses, etc., I wonder about fake clothing. i agree: i refused to give ebay my bank account or ss number so i quit selling there. I am thinking of going back to EBay but havent sold on there in years since I got scammed when selling a Louis Vuitton wallet and the seller claimed they never received it, so I am very nervous!! Mecari buyers are more excited to purchase in the constant 24 hr feed . Do not try to justify it because there is no justification, and if you get shut down you deserve it. Do people not read that there arent returns of things that dont fit!!!??? I ship the same day and love that all I have to do is print out a label and take it to my mailbox. I am new to Poshmark (less than a month) and I have to say that I am definitely buying more than I am selling. The frustrating part about the offer process is you can only write numbers, no words like : What is the lowest you would go? That way they and I both feel we got a good deal and the process would be much less of a time suck.
