I have made 39 purchases on Poshmark. Of these purchases I:
-Disliked six items that just weren't comfortable or the size didn't fit. This is reasonable to expect this to occur.
-Three items were never shipped by the seller. There I was eagerly anticipating them and days went by and there was no response from the seller and the item never went out. When a sale is canceled (because you cancel or it times out, you don't get to leave feedback on the transaction. What?!)
-One item (a designer bag) came with pen marks all over the inside that were not disclosed. I sent it back. The bag was priced not much less than retail. I ended up paying maybe $20 more to get the bag with a teacher discount new from the designer's site.
Now maybe you are thinking that 4 out of almost 40 experiences were negative. But that's 10%. Throw in the items that didn't work (but that you cannot return on Poshmark) and 25% of my purchases were a thumbs down.
POSHMARK- you need to give buyers the opportunity to review sellers who don't complete the transaction. There is ZERO accountability for sellers who just don't follow through. Also, the shipping practices are hit/miss. I received a silk scarf shipped in a large flat rate box and I sometimes get things where additional USPS materials are used inside a package as packaging. This is wrong and environmentally not friendly. I'd like a first class option for shipping for t-shirts and scarves and things of that sort.
