If you dont mind me asking, how did you get your traffic back to your site? I had another girl purchase a pair of capris for $4, which were in good condition she opened a case on me. I recently found a couple of buyers that made me rush to send their packages, only to give me a 2 star rating because the item , in their opinion, wasnt as described. Im getting so tired of people not accepting orders just because they couldnt bother to read, not to mention the rudeness when products dont fit them! Hope that helps! She ordered on 3/15, she RECEIVED the item on 3/19. Ive had another rate me low because she said the pictures made the bag look bigger. So I went to eBay Mercari etc. Hello, I complete Etsy has the safest /best protection for sellers. Goodbye to my consideration for Suggested user now for another few months. Have a super fab week!! I have all 5 stars I dont mind doing the work but i believe i should at least be seeing some improvements on their part. I have never in my entire life of purchasing on line seen how lazy Poshmark sellers are. But everyone else is entitled to theirs as well. Poshmark does charge sellers a fee. And that lowball offers were rude and to just go away. Nuff said! Reading it now. All brand new with tags however I feel as if the items will stay there forever and the the mass population doesnt really buy designer but more so gently used clothing or they want your items for next to nothing. If they dont like it or it doesnt fit, etc, I will gladly buy it back at the same price plus I will reimburse shipping. I have been on POSHMARK for about a month and I am already getting tired of their sharing game,parties and also Lowballers. There is NO 100% protection. And lastly, DESCRIBE YOUR ITEMS. The same can happen on an online store with chargebacks and PayPal returns! 16. I get some of your issues. 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. Which by the way , Do you know how many times Ive bought an received items from sellers on Poshmark only to receive them an find they DONT fit an I dont hold they against the seller an I have to repost the item to sell ! These people are unbelievable. 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. Then I got a few weird troll comments- thats when i learned there are a$$holes on there just out to be rude. There has to be some kind of truth to their experiences, that can not be ignored. I have also been on Poshmark nonstop as well since starting my own closet. The ridiculous reason why!? This was interesting reading. Arfg, 4 orders in progress now. The person who responded to both of these used exact same sentence, about asking if they were still available and gave his gmail address. Its been happening for the last 15 items I e sold in a row. This is all bogus I had an excellent reputation on Poshmark almost a 5 rating never had replicas? Like I posted a hand mixer for $5 just to get rid of it fast and someone send me a $3 offer. Ive had to stop my notifications on this site as the alerts were getting to be too much! So as of right now I am out around $100. 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. Its a selling clothes to people thing. Im not sure how long that takes since that was only a day ago. eBay and places like it will almost always side with the buyer over the seller because of one fact : sellers are easier to get than buyers . Emily, thank you so much for your comment. If this company ever goes public Im buying stock! Plus there is incredible lack of insight and common sense among sellers & buyers. 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. Pictures were posted of all parts of them. Felt like I was in a bs sorority and it was constant hazing. It was even obvious in the comments that they were sold as the girl who bought them thanked me for them. Whoever these people are, no nothing about products! That should have been a red flag. But yeah I find it so unprofessional and unethical that Im considering just quitting. The trolls, the low ballers, the crooked and one-sided rating system, and the serious lack of user support from Poshmark. 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!! I got some $ back from the protection plan, but I hated that I had been scammed. Unfortunately, i live in a very small town and the local authorities probably wouldnt be of much assistance. Before she listed it on Poshmark, she did due diligence to ensure it was authentic. If you are selling replicas,they will eventually close your account and ban you. In order to get the most out of Poshmark, you'll need to know the most effective ways to search for listings, and how to vet a listing once you find something you like. Free shipping AND returns. This is when they still owned Paypal. 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. But what I found in that package was TRULY DISTURBING. The list is endless. Thats where wed all benefit! If the cost of the item is higher than $15, Poshmark takes a 20 percent cut. Additionally, eBay runs right around 20% too, when you add up the cost of a store (I have anchor which is 300 a month), final value fees, and Paypal fees. Proof within itself! With that being the issue I didnt want to be on their site anyways, who would support people taking advantage of others. NO sellers response to feedback anymore. Always looking for great people to network with . Also if you go on youtube there are tons of videos on reselling, online business, etc. And its ppl like that, that are making me want to close up shop. Because of those experiences, I am now extremely cautious when purchasing from places like Poshmark and eBay. I am feeling the same way. No response from them until today! I agree that some items on Poshmark are way overpriced. 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. They said it was snagged all over. They do not care about the seller and honestly I dont even think anyone there speaks English. When it finally got to me, poshmark has missed that ALL damage was on one side & it was obvious that someone way too large had tried to stuff her arm in to the sleeve. It sucks because Ive been able to made decent money using it but the horrible customer service combined with their 20% commission makes it just not worth it to me anymore. Maybe its buyers remorse for spending $1k on a bag? (Some of them). Sellers can also cancel a sale. I was appalled as this had never happened to me before! Thanks! Ive been selling on eBay for over 12 years and never really had any issues up until the past couple of years.omg, scammers galore!!! 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. Im not sure how this will endbut I am sure Im finished with Poshmark. I just sold a Coach bag recently with many upclose and clear pictures and a detailed description. Posh does seem to be a big high school girl clique . And the person damaged the zipper on purpose. I just started selling and already I seem to have gotten a fraud situation. I must have sent them 25 messages explaining that I do not use a cel phone and cannot get texts and to verify me an alternate way. I have not had a case opened yet. 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. and zero reason why even after i would ask what the problem was more than once and to also let them know feel free to send it back free not to mention trade scamming the pervs and the please hold for me and then you do it and they dont answer you back when you ask them if they need more time or what the deal is! The problem I have is I have not found a platform I like as much as PM, except for the time suck sharing issue. Ive used eBay, Poshmark, Mercari, OfferUp, and now Facebook Marketplace as well as Tradesy. 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. The stitching is uneven and awful. Poshmark is a smartphone app. .My latest issue is being locked out of my account. I would recommend anyone that is considering joining to research!! No way Id sell any high end bag on here for someone to call it fake. Thanks for all the great insight and perspectives. Quite often you can check out as a guest but not here. The Seller must have gotten a real bargain and no wonder she cant wear wedges because she probably couldnt get them on either! He sent me a picture of the pigment. 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. Run your closet how you want OP 19 Reply YouKnowHowChoicesBe 5 yr. ago Can you get scammed on Poshmark? Idk why theyre not even bothering to look into this but it really upsets me, especially since theyre making money off of me. Hi Elizabeth. Ive spent the last year or two getting rid of my PM inventory on Mercari (I no longer have any interest in resale). Really, really good points! I belong to a few resale groups on Facebook if anyone is interested again I really appreciate your post. 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. Its just frustrating! You can determine a set amount you want to spend each day with AdWords, so the budget is up to you. I also wonder how they want you to add any evidence when a case is opened and posh does not even disclose what the case was opened for? Or another one who offered me $3 on an item listed at $4? That is letting someone else control your life. It would be easy for a new website to come along and save sellers, and buyers, $$$$$. Its super simple to use and youll have much more control over your sales and your earnings. That said, Im just done with yet another form of online bullying/abuse/scams where trolls end up the winners. How do you get the traffic and the customers? Poshmark is full of Sellers who are quick to list but have little or no intention of Selling, or young girls who change their mind and cancel on a whim. Ive taken part in hearting picking likes that style. , The entire interaction was so crazy to me and i looked in her closet and saw she had the same brand marked up so i figure she was just mad I had the same type / brands she was trying to make money on ?? 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. Recently though, someone bought a dress and actually complained in the listing comments stating it was smelly and dingy and I was getting reported. I responded with an appeal email, which I am sure they will get to sometime in another dimension, let alone within the decade. 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. And no time suck as its not a social app. I should explain that I am an older lady (older but sharp) and I have a desktop computer and a landline phone and I DONT USE A CEL PHONE. If you have any ideas as to whether or not anything can be done, I would greatly appreciate it. I received no reply, but she now has the jacket marked not for sale. Then sit back and watch the sales roll in! The pictures the BUYER had submitted showed HER with a knife or sharp object sticking thru my jeans and ripped the stitching. Also there are usually local facebook groups too sell on. Its really gotten bad lately with 2 cases opened and 2 lost packages in the last 10 days. That said, Im sure a class-action lawsuit for sellers interested in legal recourse would change Poshmarks tune becauseas Ive read in all these commentsthis is completely unacceptable and out and out THEFT. Well the shirt was mis-marked as a 2XL and I clearly stated that in my listing. Then in May, I listed many more items; also joined the parties and follow groups. Reason #1. I was tempted to get into and further explain to her t how retail works (does she realize ALL retail is marking things up 45-50%+) and that I list most items that are CURRENTLY in stores now, and Im listing at 1/2 price of retail and sometime well below my own wholesale cost! The sharing. Poshmark is so fortunate to have this base. Reading the latest Q4 2021 Earnings Call transcript, all focus remains on reporting how much time users spend on the platform (social activity). People just follow your closet if they like the items that are in it. Im not going to bother with texting. I am pulling my hair out over this and he keeps sending I shipped it. They asked me for pictures which I sent. None. In my opinion, at the very least, the whole site should be shut down. So you think Shopify would be better for me? Buyers remorse is no reason to lie about an item. I have several friends who are big fans, and Im planning to join soon myself, I just havent gotten around to it yet. the bundles of bundles we post (baby lots of 22 pieces plus) I state as firm including Bc I have to pay extra shipping they bundle 3 of those huge lots and ask less than half listed bundles price. It was good to get away for a month vacation and I am hoping to change my reselling strategy. I have only been on Poshmark for a few weeks and I am starting to think no one is actually buying anything because we are all trying to sell something! I had a brand new dr scholls flat for $8 and this Lowballers offered me 5! This may be one of the worst Poshmark experiences Ive ever heard of. He is still out there after a few months. After November 16, 2016. If and when they finally remove a listing, they do not suspend the account. It truly has the worst customer service in the industry, hands down. I always check out the buyer before shipping. It is perfectly staged, backlit, front lit, in fact, it is lit from every which way possible. know all the sales & free items. She said, no gurl.just send it as it is. It almost feels like I am being exploited and trapped in this nonsense! Well I wrote back and said there isnt anything in my closet for sale so Im not sure what you removed??? I couldnt believe how she could claim that when I try to be as detailed and accurate with my photos and descriptions. And let me know how it goes! There customer service is horrible, especially for what they charge! Can you give me your thoughts on tradsey? Because they provided a different label they have somehow messed up the payment, but no one will help. Sellers are also given the opportunity to cancel a sale that has been made. Their top sellers that call this activity out. Make sure that you are satisfied with the photos and feel free to request for additional photos if necessary I have to disagree, on some level, with the troll label you use. It seems like this type of activity is picking up across all of these platforms. Thats basic customer service that I feel any seller should be prepared to provide. Poshmark will sink or swim on this crap. Okay, brace yourselves, women! Good luck with your sales! (Ive had to do that with a lot of people on eBay, and previously on Poshmark.). I shouldve known my selling strategies & get to know the app well. I agree with you 100%. However I do think I will still try my luck with the site, hopefully having a better experience. Anyone know if I can file a complain? I was all excited and telling friends how great Poshmark was until this. Everyone sees a NWT high-quality item that retails for $100, Listed at $35 and wants to offer $10-12. What they really mean is exposing this activity breaks down the trust and integrity of users. Now I have a lot more control over what Im selling and I dont have to pay Poshmark fees or a 20% commission to anyone. The user report/review feature on Poshmark is the biggest example of just how cheap Manish Chandra really is. hello?) If you react to difficult buyers and allow them to decide ANYTHING about how you run your business, then this business isnt for you (unless you can STOP IT and realize that no one buyer makes or breaks you). Thank you for sharing. I have sold a few things that I no longer use and got high ratings, but I always fear that moment when not only do I lose the money I just gained (which is OK for me as long as I get my item back), but also I lose the item itself (cuz of course they have to break it or tear it so that they can do this). Hope Im not double posting this. You did the right thing Lesli by filing an official complaint with the BBB. Amen. Poshmark is a digital online marketplace where sellers can sell goods, and customers can find unique, brand new, and good condition used goods at bargain prices. Thats why I wont sell high end purses or shoes anymore Bc people pick on those the most as Ive seen from posh friends. But I guess some people do think there used stuff is better then others same used stuff . These are men who have found Poshmark and created accounts just so they can ask you to model that pair of high heels or that tight dress. These clients I built a trusting relationship with couldnt find me. I did let my Poshmark regular buyers know that my closet had moved to ShopStylaphile.com. I also let my regular customers from Poshmark know that my closet had moved. Caitlin, snd listing their brand as boutique , at horribly inflated prices ALL OVER Poshmarkmakes me sad that women would rio each other off this way!! Here I am really depending on this income and once again its gone. And yeah in the scheme of things in life, it is rather trivial. Its a sad place for sellers these days. Hi Amber! The shoes were only worn once, and I had pics of everything. If its less expensive, and you wouldnt be out a lot of money if they scammed you, then it might be worth the chance. Thanks Stacey! Wow!! And where I need to get paid.they are jerking me around.thank u much appreciated jackie Ive been called every name in the book even after being very nice! What the fuck is wrong with people.
