No worries. Can I ask if your photo showed the item zipped up? And not everyone on Posh is conducting it or their closet as a business. If anyone else is interested, please message me or comment here because this SELLER ABUSE has got to stop. Hi, The buy, destroy, and open a case type. I do not own anything counterfeit and am appalled that they falsely accused me of such an absurd accusation! I am bombarded with party invites daily and my time has been wasted further wasted. Whatever!! How does the BBB have them at an A with all the complaints people have filed?!! I automatically became a posh ambassador a few weeks ago. Plus they only let you add 8 pics. I contacted Poshmark Support to let them know, but they never responded. After 2 1/2 years and 60,000 followers later, I too am jumping ship (though will keep my closet open for as long as possible to advertise my Etsy handcrafts). I am new to Poshmark (less than a month) and I have to say that I am definitely buying more than I am selling. 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. I like people to be sure an she said it will fit just mail it to me ! Hi Diana! Ive had 2 offers from people who joined the same day (or within days) as the offer. Same goes for buying.dont buy something for a price you couldnt recover on a resell. I dont have time for social selling. I use social media, my blog, and Google AdWords to drive traffic to my site. We will not be restoring your account as we require users to follow our returns guideline. Also on her page I noticed she sells replica Louis Vuitton which is against poshmarks guidelines but again theyve done nothing. Everything is dry cleaned before sale and Id never sell anything with any noticeable issue and I check thoroughly. All of my ratings (I have close to 300) have been 5 star except for 2. So not sure if its their revenge on me? Thanks for sharing I dont feel like its just me. But when I wrote to them about how as sellers can we be protected, I told them I removed over $27,000 in merchandise and I still have probably $60,000 to sell! Its the United States Post Office for crying out loud! One star- looked like a snot nosed brat new to posh, wouldnt explain the issue but added the button item description needed improved and thats it. However Im doing same as you! First of all, WOW. Dont get caught up in the rhetoric and politics that coincide with social networking. I quit a year ago and then decided to create a new account to sell just a few pieces of jewelry. The issue I have is people not taking their items down when theyre moving and dont take in consideration that we have to one wait for our item then most likely dont receive it and have to wait on our refund which pisses me off! So I am officially done, it is no longer worth the time, risk, and effort. Thank you sharing this! Just because I am selling something doesnt mean I want to get 90% less than what I (recently) paid! Im kind of a new posher. I shipped a designer handbag in perfect condition and the buyer opened a case stating the bag was ripped and torn. Never before have I seen you could remove love notes. Even this turned out to be a terrible experience. But it is also about respect! The dress hung in her closet with plastic over it and then came to hang in my closet after listing it on Posh. Ive taken part in hearting picking likes that style. Sadly no. Just people on facebook also pissed off that they cant create an account in the first place. Poshmark is run by tech bros, who have no fashion sense. Poshmark is making a hefty 20% commission just for using their site and sending out shipping labels. 16. I wrote on here once before but I just recently had an experience similar to Eltee. Later, Alexandria. 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. Tradesy is great for High Designer Labels and only women clothing. I was so excited to try them on. Outside all the reasons most of the comments have said- mostly scammers, rude people and the absolutely worst customer service in the history of online sales I mean, honestly when its worse than eBay, that is sayin something, I think that its really being overlooked just how much Poshmark is expected to consume a persons life just to sell a $35 skirt, pack it prettily, rush it to the post office, wait for someone to get off their ass and accept it while praying they dont ding you with less than 5 Stars. This article seems to bring to attention the Seller experience, but for myself as a serious Buyer, rather, there are too many ongoing occasions where the Seller accepts my offer and then 3 days later flippantly cancels with no cause for cancellation to the Buyer. My new thing due to scammy people- I video tape with the label as I package it- take pics as well incase someone wants to try to say otherwise condition!! Its definitely time consuming. I do the same thing every time someone opens a case I immediately reply and say I will not accept the return because my listing had clear photos and a description, with measurements, which I show in a screenshot in the reply. Whats the name of your store? If its used whatever you get is a profit. Everyone wants to sell their stuff , but not everyone wants to buy . I just created a poshmark account wanting to make some money, but now I am very scared. The final reason why is the same too: you've just ended any chance of a favorable outcome. Tradesy took the return, the buyer got refunded, I kept my money, and then Tradesy resold the shoes through their house account. Might be something you want to try. I have a large following as well and have sold many items. This is exactly how I feel. Mecari buyers are more excited to purchase in the constant 24 hr feed . Any advice you can give me is so appreciated. I totally relate to this post. Good morning! 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. Here I am really depending on this income and once again its gone. She commented on the listing not sure these will fit, but willing to invest my offer. I started with Poshmark last August 2016 and Id say Im doing well in terms of reviews and ratings. 4 got 5 star reviews. My in search of posts were idiotic.. i explaindd to her why we do it, she still kept calling me an idiot and after I was nice, she then goes on to call ME a bitch! Im surprised I continued. The offer was $20. Kaitlin, Im so sorry to hear this! But from the looks of it he has removed a portion of the product and I have no way of knowing what I would be getting in return! Then you have to wait 3 days for your funds to be released. I have been buying actively on Poshmark and also have a few sales. The jar has about 10% left. She probably had buyers remorse I thought. I realize Poshmark customer service is very rude and do nothing to help! Interesting how that works I thought you were innocent until proven guilty but on Poshmark you are Guilty until proven innocent . Now ladies if you ever worked retail in a clothing store , you always have that repeat custom that comes in the store buys an outfit an wears it out an comes back to the store to return an outfit she wore !!! If you want to set up your own website, I would recommend starting with BigCommerce here: http://bit.ly/2pFg5Mt. He said in the email he was wanted to buy his gf a bag and was wondering about buyer protection. I believe sellers remorse was behind the refusal to complete the transaction. I think I am going to dump the app after my last sale gets delivered. I do think they have some algorithm that controls how many people see your share. Avoid 'Inspired' Brand Names in Descriptions. Uhm, this crap is par for the course in a retail environment. Maybe I should just take all my inventory and have an awesome bonfire at the beach. A buyer should expect questions. I bought a pair of shoes. Change). In my opinion, at the very least, the whole site should be shut down. PS: When I first started on PM, customer service was good. As Im sure you have personally witnessed if you didnt go to a shelter during the storm, you are not going to get a drop of help unless youre a homeowner and even then the assistance is so little that it doesnt go very far at all. The high fees cover the advertisement, which attracts buyers to the site, according to Bellatory. Amen. They said it was snagged all over. Wait, to the person who said the shipping is absurdly high, I have to ask where else are you shopping that $7 is high for priority?! If I waited to share my items at 5:30 a.m., I missed PoshMarks prime time hour. My 5th sale was shipped within 12 hours and this was a brand new pair of Electric Yoga leggings that were ordered online. Which all of hers were, so my listing was valid. Ive been emailing them because I feel like my buyers arent receiving notifications to accept their item so I always have to wait until the fourth day for my money to finally be released to me. Posh cancelled the sale. Yes, I use Shopify because Im selling a mix of vintage, pre-loved and brand new items. She hasnt responded and refused to accept the order even though it was her fault for not reading carefully. Yeap. I see many comments that say, Oh, I do this for fun, I know I will never make any real money at this. Thats wonderful but Im just starting in a very saturated market over there and I just dont have all day to dedicate. So, I quit and went to eBay. The time investment is ridiculous and for what? Poshmark is very odd. The strap of one shoe was completely rubbed off as though sandpaper was taken to them. Poshmark started doing well and getting attention almost as soon as it began. The thing I like about Poshmark is the exposure and the fact that everything is handled with their 20% fee (except seller protection apparently!). These are 2 huge steps and there is so much more. NOT GOOD. I sold a brand new pair of tommy bahama flops a couple weeks ago. I hate to try on clothes, so if I saw something I liked, Id buy it. Recently a buyer opened a case on a blouse she purchased from me claiming it was stained & damaged. That would leave me with 2.50 not enough to buy the tape to close your box, lady! I have never bought anything online, ever. If you are blocked by another Poshmark user, you can still see their closet. When the bag arrived dried and in perfect condition I replied back. Most likely they are getting discounted ship pricing and earning on ship price also. I lost money all because of the shipping cost Instead of gaining, i lost.. it wasnt fair.. The one in my size, the seller only shows stock photos. Please understand I. The men and women who do this are to be commended, but again, their time is valuable, and are they compensated for it? 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). Hey there friends I dont exactly want to say that Im glad I came across this blog/platforn, but it has without a doubt helped me to verify my personal issues with these so called trolls, and shed some more light on the recent 2021 downfall of many of Poshmarks users morale. At the same time, I do not have time to hunt through numerous platforms when I am searching for a vintage pair of Z Cavariccis or Betsey handbag. 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. I have considered starting this myself (before something happens and I wished I had). I dont feel I have the confdence to start anything emse though. and within minutes the items had offers and instant sales. 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. I was beginning to think I was going crazy. Great idea! They were like new. Well the folks at poshmark know the same thing. Im probably going to start moving items to another site in the future. Replicas are forbidden on Poshmark and I report them every time I see them. All the best note I would seriously try ebay just to get a better feel for online selling and I know my daughter likes Vinted. You send the longer you will be waiting. The time I spent on the Poshmark subreddits shows that theres still a tremendous amount of denial among Poshmarks most entrenched user base. Which is frustrating when you are dealing with a substantial sum. Makes it hard for sellers that are actually selling authentic things. 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! She gave me a 3 star rating, now shes reposhing it for 5 times more than she paid for each item. The buyer has to provide photo proof showing how the item does not match the listing description. I am just sick!!!! Im with mdbd Feb. 24, 2022. This way, the responsibility to ship it to their warehouse is on them. I was just curious, what was the best way to post an move all your items listed to your new online store? Im down RANTING now AN Im glad it wasnt just me deal with this stuff ! Hopefully shell be banned from Poshmark. Everything stems from the top the CEO, Manish Chandra. Im very grateful that I found this blog. I love posh and you just have to protect yourself by videoing your transactions! I get a lot less than doing it myself on eBay but none of the hassle. Now posh has raised shipping to 6.49. 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. There were pictures of the skuffs on my sale page. The carrot they hold out in front of these users continues to mesmerize. Change), You are commenting using your Twitter account. And 2000$ a month is awesome however you will see the scamming come in and the rude people eventually as to what everyone on here is discussing I will come say hi! If we keep notifying them of their weaknesses they more than likely will adapt and change to become a better business. I dont know if you are familiar with hosting a party on Posh but I messaged them about it and they sent me some form and said your closet has to be compliant, etc., etc. high fees and noone is serious. I try to be very specific in listing all measurements and any defects or minor flaws. Because Poshmark and other online selling is only passive income until it isn't. If you have to spend more than a few minutes creating your listing and then doing some occasional sharing, there is nothing passive about what you're doing. But, Im stuck. I recently sold a cute brand new mind you, Gigham plaid Bodycon dress an all measurements were posted an I always said if you have questions before you purchase ask . I left feedback for the seller and gave her a 3-star rating. I getting back to my life now. I belong to a few resale groups on Facebook if anyone is interested again I really appreciate your post.
