blocking lowballers on poshmarkblocking lowballers on poshmark

Everything you experienced is what Im going through now. Wow.. Ha Ha Ha oh Posh purchasers! A ridiculously lowball offer. Kendra, thats fantastic news about what youre doing with your site and educating people about fast fashion. I will either list the item to sell or give it away (although come to think of it, I actually did throw away a brand new brown sweater.. yeah, I could have donated it, but man, was it ugly!). From page 14. I hate that people are being scammed and the sellers appears to have made a few thousand dollars. 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. Im so upset and POSH will not return my emails. Someone told me how well they were doing and said I should give it a try. Building your own site and getting enough people to buy from you aint free, far from it. They were also filthy! I live in the real world. Even when I could sense I would likely lose a sale, I would counter. Everything youve said is 100% true!!!! I decided anyone who gives me anything 3 stars or lower without good reason gets blocked and cannot buy from me again. Flag next to the comments always), Hello, Stylaphilemag I get a nasty review how I lied about the items, that they were used. I feel poshmark staff needs some kind of guide book to fallow. She wound up blocking herself as there is a limited number of offers you can make apparently and we went past it. 2. changed her mind and put a hole in my bag. I am not a buyer so i dont care to even look at another poshers closet at all. Im done with them! Personally I never sell used clothing and shoes, these types of items I feel should be donated to the needy. xx. They expect everyone to be techies, I dont have a printer and they require a printed label. So I wasted all that time and missed out on the item. I love the idea of poshmark, but it is too social. Thanks again for your help! The best thing for you to do is have a blog like Stylaphile that you can use to direct traffic to your site. 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. And physical retail stores? Other times, theyre offering all they have. Well, that is all well and good for you, but there are people who *do* want to make real money. When I received the return, Poshmark states on their site I can dispute it if its not the same item returned. And guess what? Considering another site. If the Offer-Maker is engaging with you, negotiating on the price (not in the comments) theres one sure-fire phrase that I have used hundreds of times to bring the final price up to where I need it to be. Jessica, youre not the only person that has happened to. I dont like linking my private bank information, I simply do not trust apps enough to provide such sensitive information. I am getting frustrated that now most of the time when want more information on an item I want to buy, sellers are ignoring my questions. I found out today you can list on Posh via the computer now (instead of the teeny tiny cell phone screen) and I thought Id try out. The dress was sent back. She wants I just deleted all my listings and uninstalled the appIm taking a break and will see if I return. I get charge backs with my own online store and never win even when the buyer hand signed for the box. Just impossible. Reason #3. It annoys some sellers, and some wont even answer, but may save you trouble. I quit buying there due to sellers who post zero details on garments, sellers who ship worn and smelly clothing, and sellers who never ship at all after you purchase.

Totally understand. They claim that they monitor and block users who dont follow the terms. Obviously not. Thanks for your comment Patricia. Thank you sharing this! Starting my own business. You have to consider the listing fee as part of the offer. 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. Makes it hard for sellers that are actually selling authentic things. Ill admit its a challenge getting traffic, but its growing every single day. Ive had a great deal of success on both. I am an avid buyer and only had one bad experience. You certainly dont see anyone sending $5 offers to Macys, Target, or Zara, do you?. Then you have to wait 3 days for your funds to be released. Ive been on Poshmark a few months. Can you make anything out of all this?? Good luck! I sent all this info to poshmark and they replied for awhile and then nothing! I shipped a designer handbag in perfect condition and the buyer opened a case stating the bag was ripped and torn. I had done nothing to the jacket. I totally agree that it is a huge time sucker which I end up neglecting my family for $25.00, does this really makes sense. The ridiculous reason why!? Unfortunately, the cons outweigh the pros. I have had an account for over 15 years with 220 transactions but I never though I would leave Poshmark for ebay. 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! I sold an authentic Valentino Nuage patent leather bag (MSRP is $1950 took a lowballer offer of $60 because it was damaged), I took/posted the full amount of pictures allowed by Posh (most of the damage) and noted it at length in the description. Im surprised I continued. You have to understand the value of an item prior to posting it. How about silly girl talk on a rainy Sunday afternoon? Disabled for bad behavior with a few pending purchases of my own and a few sales pending. I will now only buy on TheRealReal. Serves her right, ei. I try to clean out my closet before a new season starts, because thats when those stores are hungry for inventory and will be less picky. There are too many comments on Posh with sellers complaining about offers and bragging about how they block potential customers. I can find the exact same item for $25 that she is pricing $250 or $500. My account was locked again, and I was told it wouldnt be reinstated. Support??? Blocked? She was rude and not what I wanted to deal with. Yeap. And to get there? Time will put this poorly conceived and terribly run business in its proper place. Gradually ebay swerved everything in the buyers direction. I cant even use Poshmark at all it wont even let me make an account. The dress hung in her closet with plastic over it and then came to hang in my closet after listing it on Posh. I think sometimes sellers forget that buyers are on these second hand sites because some people and families cant afford to buy new. Regarding Poshmark: They brag about entering the closet and making nasty comments and offering 3.00 on every listing. I just came across PoshMark about a week ago and was searching for what it means to follow someone on poshMark when I found this. My rating had fallen to like, 98.5! Ive been on Posh for about 2 years and Ive been selling things here and there. For $50. I found two types of trolls exist on Poshmark. 1. We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website. Meeting in the middle is a fantastic strategy for both buyers and sellers, even if the buyer starts really low. I was appalled as this had never happened to me before! 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! I lost money all because of the shipping cost Instead of gaining, i lost.. it wasnt fair.. I have sent several emails with no response. But then again, for a buyer, the opposite may be true. And I run into it often on Posh! I am now waiting for a response as to whos responsible for the return of my ORIGINAL bag as I will NOT accept a bag that isnt mine or intentional damage to my bag because the buyer changed her mind. Selling On websites has outlived its purpose in my life. That is why they like sites like ThredUP. The thing that gets me is, Im not Instagram savvy and Im looking for a way to reach that market. It just reinforced my decision to NOT start poshmark at all. The bag is 100% authentic. Poshmark is a mess. I agree that some items on Poshmark are way overpriced. 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. Im not one to negotiate with women who know exactly what they are doing and the average price of what a LeVian and David Yurman ring sells for. It was obvious from the few responses that I received. In addition, of course, to checking out your shop. I packaged it VERY carefully and sent it on its way without much more thought. Wrapped it in crisp white paper with a simple label to close the folded over paper) I thought it looked minimalist Thanks for any advice! I would get up in the morning and receive offers that I couldnt even begin to describe what emotion I was feeling. People might not think this is a big deal but when you sell a $2000.00 item NWT, its a big deal. I am looking to get into the job of reselling making something strong. I am either closing my closet and no longer selling or purchasing or limiting sales to established buyers/sellers depending on the outcome. Nothing. Well, someone posted it, and my closet was invaded by these, support group members. Im basically on PoshMark to sell. I have had for the majority nothing but stellar comments on most everything else I have sold and live in fear that Im going to get kicked off of here due to these bogus fradulant people. Trust me, if you dont share your items, your 333,000 followers are not going to go in your closet and make an offer or BUY IT NOW. People offer half the price for a listing. 4 got 5 star reviews. So may just focus on that. He is still out there after a few months. So dont expect to be rich selling on Poshmark. Sick of it! I hear time and time again from other poshers that there isnt no seller protection. from my research of the Posh parties everything I read up on them said that the posh leaders of the parties mainly promoted their own product and that very few people got a lot out of the Posh parties so again bc time is limited for me I do not bother to participate. The Cancel Order button never appeared at the website whenever I tried to cancel. Hope this helps!! Im new to poshmark and I was reading your article and Im actually glad to find something that describes the cons of the app. Glad you found a better way loved your article!! Or more pointedly I took my find and risked buying some itms from that brand to resell but thats business (i took , spent & RISKed my own capital to buy wholesale .. to resell!! I also had issues with women on there. Heres the link: http://bigcommerce.evyy.net/c/380173/185949/2941. No bundle may exceed 5 lb., she didnt want to pay the additional shipping. I purchased a beautiful dress through a well established seller who has a good reputation, so I expected the item to be exactly as described. Absolutely agree with everything you had said and your reasons for leaving posh. I just opened my closet on Poshmark exactly 2 1/2 months ago and although Im doing great, I feel like if I do step away from the shares and the parties etc that my sales also decline as well. Im trying to get my money back and Ive warned Poshmark about the seller, but theyve not commented. Oh,I forgot to tell u the best part. I for one have decided to close my closet with almost 140k followers and over 1200 sales Im just tired of it all the sharing and the constant issues with buyers. Wow. Ive recently become a larger seller and its so annoying when people dont bother to read the description. Now their postal is more than $7! But dont share *too* much. There JUST IS NOT A MARKET, unless you want to work for $4 an hour. (Ive had to do that with a lot of people on eBay, and previously on Poshmark.). Sent it to her after the weekend I get a note saying it was damaged and she wants to return. 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. I had regular repeat customers that were amazing, which is the only real drawback to quitting PoshmarkI loved these folks! I get a lot of traffic to my ShopStylaphile site through my blog, Pinterest, Facebook and Instagram accounts. I just feel like its a huge time suck and people do t want to pay much for anything these days. Well its the old didnt read description re stains. Thanks for the comment and congrats on opening your Shopify store! 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. I quit Poshmark a couple of years ago, thank god. NOT GOOD. I have been selling on ebay for over a year, and am used to lots of flexibility with editing pics. Makes the item virtually impossible to sell and the seller is screwed. I accepted the dress in the Poshmark app before I had examined it since I was sure that it would be fine coming from a reliable Posher and I wanted to make sure that she received the payment from Poshmark as soon as possible. 1. 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. I am bombarded with party invites daily and my time has been wasted further wasted. It shouldnt be like this and it is infuriating. Well, the right one was a little snug, then I tried to put on the left one and it is so narrow, its got to be defective!! Anyway, I decided it was time to clear out my closets and make some money from the items I dont want anymore. I feel the creepiest aspects of the platform is the psychological manipulation of requiring resellers to share (presenting it as a positive community activity sellers supporting other sellers) so that the mysterious algorithm will reward them with sells; sharing equals free labor driving the activity of the platform, which the same resellers pay more to use than other selling platforms. Terrible experience! I have considered starting this myself (before something happens and I wished I had). Scammers everywhere, and the fees are much too high.
