I sold a pair of authentic shoes on Poshmark bought directly from the brand's monostore- customer said she is purchasing for her wedding in April on the message- she sent the item back 6 months later to poshmark saying this is fake- poshmark sided with the customer, refunded her and debited my account on the basis of ungrounded accusation- would not trust to buy or sell
I thought I'd give this site a try, because they had a pair of shoes I really wanted for a great price. The seller never even bothered to ship it out, and I had to file for a refund. I can't believe this company can even stay in business with service like this. Never again!
This website is a joke. Someone halfway across the country fraudulently purchased something in my name with my linked payment method. I've contacted poshmark multiple times and have heard nothing. Thank goodness my bank stopped the payment. Then because I reported the purchase- my account gets terminated and I can't contact the seller! Wtf! Find your used clothes and accessories elsewhere.
I updated my Poshmark app because I was unable to get my newsfeed which is crucial. After updating the app, I was able to get my newsfeed and then 3613 listings disappeared. My closet shows that I have 3613 listings however my listings have completely disappeared. After cancer forced me into retirement, this is my means of support and now I cannot work because my listings are all gone. Poshmark does not have a human being or a phone number and when you contact them they send you an automated message. This is absolutely insane.
I'll start by saying, I buy real Chanel all the time. I will go on Poshmark to look for vintage or things for my daughters. This week I ordered 6 things all suppose to be Chanel so far received 5 items and 3 maybe 4 are fakes. Including items supposed to be reviewed at PMHQ. You could look at the tag for two seconds and see it's a fake. The front of the tags look pretty good, enough for me to buy them. The back of the tags is the give away they are fake. Who is authenticating these items? My advice ask to see pictures of both sides of the tags, close up photo of the buttons. Check stitching! Because I just paid 850.00 for a cashmere sweater that probably worth less then $100.00. It's my fault for not doing a better job reviewing the items. I trusted the PMHQ would be legitimate. Buyer please be ware! I'm going to make a YouTube Video of all the real Chanel in my closet and share to help future buyers... determine real or fake
I made a purchase for a jersey. The item received was for a Duke jersey and did not match the description listed for the item. It was the wrong jersey entirely. When I requested a return, in accordance with their policy, they said that I should have asked more questions and I should donate the item or sell it on my own. This site is a rip off and they don't even follow their own policies.
One thing I would definitely suggest before buying anything on Poshmark is to do an item search for the particular item you were looking to buy and see how many transactions it has had. For instance there are people on Poshmark who buy shoes wear them then sell them again on Poshmark as if they are the original owners They have all of the required documents because they were giving to them from the original owner. Luckily Poshmark stores all of his transactions on the website So just do some research on the item and see how many people it actually went through and used/worn the item you would be surprised. As for me I don't particularly want to buy a pair of third, fourth (etc) hand clothing especially shoes which are germy.
I did not receive the item purchased from Poshmark Canada and reached out to the Poshmark customer service via email (*******@poshmark.com). Over a period of almost 4 weeks we communicated back and forth, where they had asked me to reach out to my mail carrier (Canada Post) and file a complaint and get back to them, which I did and then was told they would settle my account in less than two weeks.
When I hadn't heard back from them, I emailed them and I got a reply (phot attached) that read "Hi there, thanks for following up. Unfortunately, we could not obtain any additional information to signify that this package was not correctly delivered. Please note that Poshmark is not responsible to orders that have been lost or stolen after USPS marks a package as delivered. If you suspect that your package has been stolen we suggest that you file a claim with your homeowners insurance, they should be able to cover you in these types of situations. You are able to file a police report with your local police department. Once an officer has been assigned to your case please have them contact us directly at *******@poshmark.com and we will be able to further assist them. Thank you for your patience and understanding".
For one: USPS was not the carrier.
For two: NO retailer ever has asked police to intervene nor do I think an officer would reach out to Poshmark.
And three: It's fraudulent to claim something under my home insurance for an item I never received. This is a heads up for anyone who is thinking about using Poshmark as a buyer or seller. I had a 5-star seller rating from multiple buyers and had no issues as a user until I didn't receive my purchase - and as you can see they acted outside of any laws or regulations set out for them to adhere to. DO NOT use this company as they take 20% of your sale, collect overpriced shipping costs, ask for ID that is not verified as safe to provide (i. E.: there is nothing to verify that they do not share your identification with a third party) and if you order something and it is not received (as in my case) and/or is fake you are likely to get the same response from their "stellar" customer service.
Poshmark claims that they can authenticate designer items however they no nothing about how to to this! They say if you are selling a designer item you need to have the original receipt. Who keeps receipts for used items like shoes and necklaces? And people post fake ones. I think an professional site who knows designer items would be able to tell by looking at the item if it is real or not. Not if a person has a receipt. Fake items are sold constantly on Postmark and the site is more like a thrift store app. I thought I could trust their authenticity promise but ended up with a fake. They said they was nothing the could do Even with written proof on the letter head of the company.
It has a very trashy and teeny bopper type feel to the site and is not a safe place to conduct professional business. Also you constantly get spammed on this site.
Poshmark is really bad with following with their emails and service. I bought a Hilo bag that was not well described. I tried to cancel and there is no option to cancel. I messaged the seller and never replied, i emailed poshmark never replied. I filed for a refund they replied sorry you don't qualify. Don't buy here.
If I could give it, zero stars, I absolutely would. As a seller, they put all the risk on you while taking high fees, they allow buyers to destroy your items send them back, and then you are out your item and any compensation.
They will accuse you of selling fakes as their way to not handle the situation of what the buyer did. You can have the receipt for the purchase of the item you can have time and date stamps photos showing the item left you in brand new condition, and they still will do nothing about it.
Worst platform ever
I've attached photos of the soiled disgusting nature to the item I received back
Poshmark is a fraudulent business that allows random sellers to misrepresent items and 100% of the time rejects a return request. Unlike all other designer resale sights, Poshmark has a strict no returns policy, though they claim to allow returns if the seller has not accurately represented an item. THIS IS FALSE! BEWARE!
The seller did not clean the shoes inside or out. She taped the Prada box with tape and ruined it. The shoes where so gross. Super disgusting. They lost a good client. Will never buy from them again.
This company is a front from some other country selling cheap $#*! knock offs as real legit $#*!. $#*! this $#*! company!
I ordered a pair of Illesteva sunglasses pictured on Poshmark site.
The sunglasses sent are not those pictured. Following endless emails with convoluted suggestions for opening a "case" - it is now clear after reading reviews (WISH I had taken a look before using Poshmark) that I will be stuck with an item I do not want.
No accountability or quality control as found on other sites.
This has been a time consuming and frustrating scam!
The sellers are often teenagers and the products are not verified nor are they quality controlled. This is not a safe arena to use your money.
I bought a Michael Kors handbag in February from seller Fashion 4 Less and its falling apart already. I was under the impression that it was a good brand but the bag is cheaply made.
I love this platform. This is a site for a more sophisticated consumer with refined taste and experience shopping online. It's a Refreshing change from the sites that allow buyers to rent clothes and then return for any reason up to 30 days. I've made over 30 purchases and only had to request a return for one item, which Poshmark approved.
You can't search anything! If I want a zippered robe the search engine picks up the word zipper and you get everything with a zipper! Chico sizes are all wrong... Those who search Chico brand know the sizing but you can't search the accurate sizes. I get so frustrated that I give up on looking for anything! Please take lessons from ebay! I would love to use Poshmark's website but for now I stay away!
Do not shop this platfoem! I was sold a damaged product and since the seller wrote "worn" I cannot get my money back for the damaged goods. Poor costumer service
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!
