We monitor reviews for authenticity
I own a pair of Parker black zip pants... loved them so much I tried to buy a pair off of poshmark. When I received them everything was fake. The zippers were a bright silver and mug larger than the authentic pair I owned. The tags were re sawn in the authentic pair. Poshmark decided they felt they were authentic with zero reasoning.
There are probably more good reviews than not. Poshmark is great until something goes wrong. Like them losing your check in the mail. Happens more often than not actually. I sold something a month ago and still have yet to get the $ for it. They stopped answering my emails regarding it and there is no phone number to contact anybody. So i have been stuck emailing them, begging them to answer. Still out $100, still no e-mail. Goodluck & cross your fingers
The buyer have no respect for seller. Very low offers, wear stuff abd send back or send back damage. Poshmark let's buyer have 3 days time decided if keep item. I have multiple experiences the buyer wear item, damage item for purpose, send pic for Poshmark and say I have send item in this condition. I loose to many time. The Poshmark is good place buy cheap only bad place for seller.
Terrible customer service and seller: I bought a jacket that was advertised as genuine leather (by seller kschmit1). One week after receiving it, I realized it was polyurethane and sent a picture of the tag to the seller and poshmark. They both reported that it was past the three day "sale close" period and would not return/refund. Fraud.
I received a smelly coach purse and a sweater that was too small. I asked to return items and was told no. WHAT? Who runs a business like this. No one should. UGH bad experience... will never do business w/ them again.
If you sell your items on this site, be sure you take lots of pictures before you ship anything, and even take pictures of the packaging, and take pains to double wrap everything in the impossible case that USPS spills crap all over the package.
I sold a clothing item that was literally new and the buyer claimed it had stains on it. I wrapped it in a sealed bubble wrap mailer, and the packaging didn't have any stains on it, yet she claimed something "fell in" to the package (impossible).
Poshmark proceeded to let her return the now damaged item without corresponding with me once. They also have no phone number, so you can't contact them. I sent 10 e-mails and messages through their app and i have gotten no actual responses except for automated ones saying "we will get back to you within 1-2 business days!".
Do not, not, NOT sell on here! If you're a buyer, you may be in luck and get to screw over random people.
I thought this app was better than e-bay because it was so much less annoying. However, now i see the reason for all of the hassle you have to go through on e-bay; they have much greater protection for both the buyer and the seller. This company poshmark is a joke and i hope people exit it en masse.
People also sell used items for WAYY too much on here... pretty ridiculous.
I ordered two Men's Jackets for my 97 year old father as he loved his old one no longer made by JC Penney, So I looked on line and found one in his size and bought it from Poshmark and it never came. So I have been going back and forth with different customer reps so then I ordered another one from Poshmark since I didn't get the first one and they took my money and they canceled that jacket as it was not available? I am just now trying to get my money back and it become a great big hassle. Never Again!
Bought an item and seller never shipped it cause they haven't logged on in I don't know how long, canceled purchase and bought the same item from different seller and they did the same thing. Can't rely on sellers cause they haven't looked at there listing in however long! Can't guarantee you'll get your item!
What a wonder buying and receiving service I received from Poshmark and seller Peggy I think her last name was spelled Geyes.
I ordered a Cosmopolitan purse from Poshmark and received I in less than a week.
I'm over the Top Pleased. The purse is awesome in brand new condition and Exactly what I wanted.
The purse came Priority Mail and packaged perfectly.
Thank you Poshmark and Peggy Geye

I purchased a purse off this site. The Seller listed the item as NWOT. I needed a large hand bag and prior to purchase, I messaged the Seller to ask if the bag was a medium or large? She said "Large". I received the item with wear at the corners and damage. NWOT? I opened a claim under Poshmark and attachments pics of the damages. Didn't hear anything back from them for 3 weeks. I contacted Poshmark to find out the status of my claim to return the bag for my refund. I was told that they sent a request to me for more pics and info. I NEVER received a request from Poshmark or any correspondence. The answer to my email was that my claim didn't fall under their guidlines. So now I'm going through my bank to dispute this. A Rep from Poshmark sent an email stating "if you dispute this with your bank, we will dispute your account! Really? I should have researched tgis site further before dealing with the fraud that's going on. You can't even speak to a live person. So I responded to the threat as, "you threaten me because I have a problem with and item purchased off your site? You can do whatever but my bank WILL pursue you! BUYERS BEWARE! This is not a good place to buy anything!
I have been selling and buying off poshmark for a while now and it's great. Just beware all the amazing discounts will make you into a shopaholic. A few tips about shopping on PM always ask questions even if you think you are bothering them ask! That is your right to ask as many questions as you need after all you are buying somethig you havent seen from a stranger, if they don't want to answer just move along. I'm a seller as well and always welcome questions and requests for additional information or photos. I would say the only downside is the shipping costs for the buyers and the selling fees for the seller but it's the cost of doing business with a business that values both seller and buyer so I'm happy to pay it. I've only had one minor hiccup but it wasn't as bad and I still got a good price for what was sold
They take a large percent of your sales then restrict your account if you make it known someone is selling replicas. With no chance to make it right
Got scammed yesterday! I sold a bag and the girl switch my bag with something other bag and claimed that I sent a wrong item. She even take a video of herself opening the package and i have nothing to prove myself. Now i lost my bag and my $$$ i will not use Poshmark anymore, can't believe people can awful like that for a used bag.
Fortunately I have been able to sell a few things and the transactions have gone smoothly. One item got disputed even though my listing was completely honest. I blame the buyer for not asking more questions. Instead of trying to win the case, I asked Poshmark to send me my item back -- I don't want an unhappy buyer saying negative things about me! Since there's no way to DM someone, our interactions are public which is so annoying. Another buyer purchased a brand new with tag still attached item from me for $10 (the cheapest thing I have), it was shipped next day. She had the nerve to give me a 2-star rating. WTF. I have no way of asking her what her prob was without doing so publicly and risking she sat something nasty and untrue. People are weird and a lot of the stuff is garbage -- cheap crap. I'm hesitant to try to keep selling what I already have on there and I certainly would never buy off the site. Between the crap, crappy customer service, email scammers, low ball offers, and people asking to trade when you specifically say NO TRADES, not sure it's worth the effort.
Since March 2015 I've made over $5500 selling on Poshmark. I do have quality, brand name clothing and shoes, and everything I've sold has been new or like new. I am glad that I've had this avenue to sell items I no longer need. I've dealt with a couple of irrational buyers but you are dealing
With the "general public." I've had good support from poshmark with a couple of issues. I don't buy, I only sell. Lately there are so many sellers that it's hard to make a sale and shipping is now a flat rate of $6.50 which is great if a buyer wants to "bundle" several items, but it's too high for those who only want to buy one item. However, you don't pay sales tax which is a savings for buyers that live in NY or other states where the sales tax on clothing can be as high as 8 per cent. I had a good run with poshmark but it seems to be coming to an end. Poshmark has introduced new clothing items (not brand names)that you buy directly from them and re-sell. You can buy various sizes of the same item. This has definitely hurt sellers like me. I don't plan to invest in their clothing line and this combined with the millions of sellers now on Poshmark and the high shipping charges make it impossible to sell anything!
Poshmark is CRAPMARK! The sale group is now full of used underwear, homemade bottles of unknown glop, porn ads, broken junk, fake designer purses, dirty rags, random misc yard sale rejects, nicotine vape, gross used makeup, beggars, scammers, and tons of questionable Chinese import crap. Flagging this stuff is useless. Poshmark is swamped with it, and it's rarely removed. Ever.
One star is being generous! I made an offer to a seller on Poshmark. The seller accepted, but I didn't get to answer the seller. Lo and behold the item is at my front door! I go to the Poshmark site and it says that I to check the item out and accept the sale or report an issue. Poshmark says that they won't take the money out of my bank via PayPal until I accept the package. I accepted the package on 8/30 but when I go to my bank account, the payment went through on 8/27... BEFORE I ACCEPTED THE PACKAGE! LIARS AND MISLEADING! What if I had real issues with the product?! Which I did... the seller sent me a stinky product with a dog treat still inside one of the pockets! I had to wash the whole thing. So I was being nice accepting the product. Well, never again will I go on Poshmark!
Plz let Her know i want to purchase the purses she had bundled for me but pish has blocked from this for no reason. I want her to email me at *******@gmail.com. Thanks Mary
I have made 4 purchases and they have never went smoothly. First purchase came quickly but was broken. Support fixed the issue quickly. So I was ok with it. 2nd transaction never came and turns out the girl couldn't even find the items she had placed for sale. That order was cancelled. My last 2 have taken FOREVER to send out. I'm so done with Poshmark. I don't believe they have any ways to rate their sellers. If they did the sellers wouldn't suck so bad.
I am able to negotiate some awesome deals on Poshmark. I love the selling community. The buyers lowball entirely too much but the biggest issue for me is the shipping cost. Most of the things that I purchase would only cost 2 or $3 at most I'm paying double that it's such a ripoff and very unhappy with Poshmark
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!
