I've yet to have any real issue with buying or selling. I love that listings don't expire, unlike some other sites. But there are some things i don't like. Sales can be slow. It unfortunately caters more to a higher end market. I'f you're not buying shirts that cost at least $40 new, good luck getting any interest from shoppers when you go to sell your old wardrobe. They have a flat $2.95 or 20% fee, whichever is greater. And they handle shipping on their end, you just print the label and go. Awesome... until you have someone offer $3 on an item. Really? I can make a whole nickle on a sale? It would cost me less in gas and time to dump everything at a thrift store. Everyone says how active a user you are will determine how well your sales flow is. I find it very time consuming to constantly share and follow. Time would be better spent listing and shipping.
Fun, friendly, great deals, super customer support, what more could you want? I love Poshmark! Why keep or donate good stuff you aren't going to wear, when you can sell it and use the $ toward buying something you will wear!
Support for sellers sucks but I think everything else is great. There are going to be scammers everywhere. That's why they say buyer beware
The S&H costs almost $7 even if you're buying something as low as $4. Really turns me off from buying much. I'd rather have cheaper shipping and pay less overall than have to pay for mandatory 2-day priority mail.
I am sad to see so many people have had bad experiences on Poshmark, because this is such a wonderful website! I have been a seller on it for 3 years! I have a 4.9 overall rating and have made well over 2,000 sales. I love the community for posh as well! I agree the 20% is a bit steep, but regardless, this is a great website!
Poshmark is a great way to side hustle! I sell clothes on the app, which is super easy to use, and the community of buyers and sellers is great! As always there can be a bad experience or two on any selling platform but the good 100% outweighs the bad!
Great for finding peices you love that are no longer made or selling your clothes/shoes you no longer wear!
Great site! Easy to use with fabulous deals! Don't pay retail, check on PM first! Jeans are especially a great value.
I have only had good experiences both as a buyer and seller. As a seller, it is quite time-consuming. As a retired person, time is something I have a lot of. Posh supplements my income and fellow buyers/sellers have been very supportive.
I love Poshmark. Never ever had an issue. I've been on it as a buyer and seller since 2012. Once a dress didn't arrive, but it wasn't Poshmark or seller fault. It was a mix up by USPS. Poshmark refunded my money and the seller. No loss. Please try it, you're going to find great deals and you are protected.
I've only had 2 bad experiences and customer service was very helpful. All of the other transactions went great
For the 20% commission off their sellers they do not support us one bit. Harassment, unjustified ratings they are completely out of the sellers hands (shipping), and open cases and receiving damaged goods... Posh has a long way to go until they are considered a reliable and trusted app to sell on
Love Poshmark. The easiest way to get rid of good condition clothes from your personal closet, and you'll get way more than a consignment shop or thredup will give you! It's all about community and fun! Sure it has its flaws, it's not perfect, but I have enjoyed it so far.
I love POSHMARK I only shop there now. If I find something in a store I check posh to see if I can buy it there for a fraction of the price usually at least 50% below a store price. Others buying mistakes are my wins because they sell it on posh.
I am surprised with all the bad reviews! There is no way you can get scammed here, seller do not get paid until seller says so. Buyers can ask all the questions before buying, buyers can send offers and pay less WAY less than asking price sometimes, they can also Bundle items and pay a flat rate shipping ( priority and insured) of
$6.49 regardless of the box size and weight, which is very convenient for large orders, obviously not for a pair of earrings of 2oz... common sense ladies! Poshmark has a great social aspect, you can make tons of friends, sell the clothing and accessories you do not use anymore and use the money to refresh your wardrobe, it is super cool!
I had a case against me on a bag with pics showing exactly what would be received. I lost based on the fact that I did not disclose something I was not asked about and fully showed. As a seller I will never use this again. I am also curious as to how often this happens to sellers.
First (and last) time buyer. Purchased item in good faith, paid immediately... yet item never shipped. Needed to cancel order after 7 day waiting period established by Poshmark and use the option "delayed order". Sticking to Amazon and Ebay... more reliable.
$#*! poshmark straight bull $#*! website this $#*! should be shut down and the owner needs to be jailed
From personal experience the seller with fakes are getting away with stuff. As a seller I have been scamed by customers damaging my items and filing complaints then not sending all the items back. I had one complaint that the item wasn't authentic that means fake fight, I responded how could that be when the item isn't really expensive or a huge name brand then posh excepted the buyers complaint saying that it was stained. So basicallyy they were telling me its ok to lie, play games and waist my time. When I go to block the buyer their all of a sudden their account can't be found. That has scam written all over it. So no they really don't stick up for the buyers it's like they taunt them at least the ones with good not fake stuff.
Answer: You've got to be smart about shopping online these days. There are scammers wherever you go. That said, if you follow the guidelines and steer clear from trading, which most sites don't condone, then you'll be fine. I've purchased over 100+ items on poshmark and have sold over 90+ with complete success, with the exception of the one time I decided to trade... I've purchased low prices items before and received junk a couple times, but Poshmark ALWAYS refunded me! Maybe I'm super savvy, so here's what I always do: 1. Always checkout the seller's reviews. 2. Always ask if there are any flaws with used items. 3. Always ask if sizing is TTS: "true to size" 4. And most importantly, always ask if it's authentic (unless otherwise specified in the description) These 4 questions have always led me to receiving exactly what I wanted and at half the retail price! Plus, it's so much fun! I've made a considerable amount of income from it, while also adding a nice set of items to my own closet! Good luck out there!
Answer: I have received every item I have ever bought on poshmark. It arrived on time and was in the exact condtion as was promised and how it appeared in the pics.
Answer: Well yes she received the boots and probably didnt like them or they didnt fit etc. she is trying to get her money back by trying to re sell them for 70.00 however she would only get 56.00
Answer: It took a long time, but today Poshmark said they refunded the entire purchase amount plus shipping because the booties I ordered were misrepresented. It took About a month and a half. Two times they offered me small credits toward another Poshmark purchase. I filed a very well documented (12 pages of emails, screen shots of the ad and screen shots of dialogue between me and the seller, Kimology) fraud claim with my credit card company, and I emailed Poshmark's customer service to advise them. Two days later they told me they were refunding my money. We'll see if that happens. Poshmark's customer service is terrible, but persistence paid off. Best of luck to you!
Answer: Ask probing questions: non-smoker? Ever been dry cleaned? How worn is it? Cats? Etc
Answer: I have the total opposite reaction to this question. This mystery group that decides what the outcome will be is ridiculous. You can't talk to anyone, and my last attempt to get support through emails, took one month! Not a fan of learning who the good sellers are by trial and error...
Answer: She probably stalked the other seller's listing and found you commented on the item you purchased. So technically, yes they can see what you buy as long as you commented something on the purchased listing.
Answer: Be careful on posh because they do not have your back. There is a lot of scandalous people on posh. Be careful on ebay as well. I bought a Michael Kors set on ebay that was listed as excellent condition but it was stained and reeked of cigarette smoke. Ebay did not refund my money. They said since it wasn't listed as brand new with tags I was screwed. I was out $315. Who wants a handbag and wallet that smells like shit? I think twice before buying on Ebay since that experience. Shame on the dishonest seller and Ebay for allowing that behavior. Good Luck!
Answer: Have you sent an email to Poshmark support? I have before and they did respond
Answer: You unfortunately cannot return an item if it doesn't fit. It's best to ask the seller the measurements of the item, if they tell you the wrong measurements you can return it. If they will not give you the measurements then don't buy from them. I'm new to selling on Poshmark and I will allow people to return their items if they don't fit because I believe that's what's right, you will find other good sellers!
