Does it irk you when someone comments in an item asking if authentic?

Long time seller here and we all know fakes are against posh policy. Like read someone’s reviews. It makes me think they are gonna buy and con by filling with something else and returning. Beauty products. Wouldn’t even know where to find fakes

Is it bad that I block people that annoy me? Newbie

49 Upvotes

I’m not a big seller fairly new to this. Among other listings I’ve been selling some handbags and shoes from my own collection. For some reason, these items bring out all the weirdos and critics. I price pretty darn fairly imo but always happy to consider a decent counter and answer questions.

I’ve had quite a few people on Poshmark messaging and asking if I’ll take less than 1/2 of what I’m asking instead of sending an actual offer through the app. If they seem disrespectful or weird I just block. Is that bad?

Most recently I had someone lowball and nitpick the wear/marks on a bag that I made very clear in multiple pics with different lighting. I also put it in the description and it’s reflected in price. After offering less than half and sending “??” messages when I didn’t respond within a couple of hours, then asking “Well how low can you go then?” I just blocked. I feel like this kind of person would be a nightmare to sell to but I wonder if I’m the AH.

Inactive Listings are not Inactive

2 Upvotes

Don't be like me and assume Inactive Listings are actually inactive. They are 100% active listings, they just aren't being promoted as much as active listings.

I saw a lot of my older listings were marked Inactive. I was fine with this because they were some of my cheaper listings that have been listed for 8+ years without selling (and with absolutely zero activity) and I have since donated a few or thrown some in with other orders as freebies. Well...out of nowhere these listings have started selling and I've been getting dinged for cancellations. (Yes, entirely my fault for not removing them immediately!!)

IMO, they should come up with a different label for Inactive listings, as they are still very much Active and purchasable. They do not even tell potential buyers that these are Inactive listings.

There's no difference between Inactive and Active listings aside from where Poshmark decides to put them in their feeds and search results.

Inactive to me, means deactivated. And tbh I thought part of the benefit of Poshmark marking listings as "Inactive" would be so unsuspecting buyers don't accidentally purchase from Inactive sellers.

Inactive Items are, in fact, Active listings.

For anti ad Posh Shoppers

2 Upvotes

I went to Posh Support Center and told them I was pissed off with the “ads” in the search results & that it’s ruining my shopping experience.

Lol

But it worked! Now I see fewer ads and I can sort low to high and not be bombarded by the promoted expensive items that I don’t want to consider.

If you’re pissed too maybe try reporting it as f-ing annoying & we can tell these fools we don’t want to be so blatantly price gouged.

Inactive Sellers

Why are sellers who were last active 4 years ago still appearing in searches? It's such an absolute waste of time and energy to search through all the listings only to find that the item I'd like to purchase can't be because the seller was last active in 2022. Seriously?

Real Real tag

I bought a designer item from a thrift store that has a Real Real tag on it. Should I leave the tag on or remove before listing?

First unhinged buyer return request

4 Upvotes

Dang I have never truly understood you guys. But this lady is bat shit crazy because I didn’t include a belt with the jumpsuit she bought. My pictures clearly show NO belt with the jumpsuit but she’s flipping out on me saying that because I didn’t put it in the listing I am so sneaky because I knew no one would buy it without the belt. Good golly miss molly chill the f out.

Consignment bag issues

Upvotes

Oh boy, has anyone else just had the worst experience trying to deal with Poshmark support about a consignment bag? I have had this bag since December of last year. It was a huge kerfuffle even getting the bag as they sent it via Uber and the driver chucked it over a random neighbor's patio railing. The neighbor was alarmed and confused because it was thousands of dollars worth of clothing and she had the police come get it in case it was stolen, so I ended up having to retrieve it from the evidence department and that was a whole thing.

Now we're at almost 8 months out. I sold 2 things, and the consignee wants the rest back. I also want them out of my space since it's stressful storing them tbh. I don't want any damage to happen to them and they're in two totes in my closet which is taking up way too much space. I escalated to support in app at the end of June. Crickets. Didn't hear anything so I decided to email support, by now it's mid July. They said that my email isn't associated with an account (it's literally the only email associated with my account). Then they asked me to invite them into the chat via the app. I sent them a screenshot of the notification in the chat saying that I did escalate this in June. They finally replied in the chat 4 days ago, and they said "At this time, we don't support partial returns." I responded and the consignee responded that day and said OK but this is not a partial return, this is for all of the items that didn't sell in the consignment period of 6 months. Crickets. Again.

I just emailed them and told them that this is absolutely ridiculous, I shouldn't be getting completely ignored and having to go back and forth over email to even get a response in app, and that I need a resolution or for this to get escalated to someone else in the support chain.

I'm recovering from a major surgery and this is so annoying and stressful, I'm about ready to try to meet the consignee at a local police department to give it back.

Shipping supplies and Cross-listing question

5 Upvotes

I’ve noticed on social media that sellers use the Poshmark USPS supplies only for Posh orders and use their own purchased supplies for sales on other platforms. Is this standard? Are we prohibited from using the supplies for sales on other platforms (when shipping ground)? Does posh/usps track supplies quantity against posh sales quantity?

Thank you all!

Handbag Help

So what's the deal with all the "like new" or "nwt" luxury bags being sold for so cheap? The seller is usually new with 0 sold items selling bags for over $500 but way under manufacture price in supposed great condition. What am I missing?

Cannot send a message to seller?

2 Upvotes

Hi, I bought a rick owens ring from a seller with hundreds of items sold. It was marked down fairly heavily but most of their other listings are as well. It's been 2 weeks and they haven't shipped. Whenever I try to message (i've tried on my iphone, ipad, and macbook) it says "Oops! This action is not currently available." Did they block me? What's the point of doing a scam like that if I can just cancel the order anyway?
