Poshmark seller: ontheverge22

Very bad fake.

In the future, please refer to post #1 for the required posting format and necessary info.

ETA: I'm not sure exactly what she paid but the price of the fake from ontheverge22 was originally $100. For less than that, you can get an authentic version of style 10810:

Here's one example.

Here's an idea of what they sold for. One of the listings, the oldest sold is fake but without opening all, the others look good:

That's good. if the seller doesn't willingly agree to a refund, file a dispute with your c.c. company. If necessary, refer the seller here.

Since it's illegal to sell fakes, she can't relist it anywhere so if she's smart, she should just offer profuse apologies, issue a full refund and tell you to destroy it.

PoshMark also have the rules about selling fakes and a system for disputes.

Edited because I saw your daughter just got the bag. PoshMark do not release the funds to sellers, till buyers get their orders and accept them. When you get it do not "accept", just from the pull down menu click on order not as described, and the process for the return starts.

If the order has not been shipped already, I am not sure if the seller can cancel, but if she insists that is real, she won't anyway. For future reference, you can cancel any order as accidental purchase within 3 hours.

You do not have to wait and dispute the CC. PoshMark do not release the funds to sellers, till buyers get their orders and accept them.

I don't recommend "accidental" for an item that is fake and its provenance has been denied by the seller. My recommendation would be whatever kind of dispute puts a ding on a seller's account so they can know that next time they list an item that they didn't personally purchase themselves that they have it verified as legal, authentic and allowed to be sold.

Yes, I edited a second time to add the possibility of accidental purchase in the future, as a tool to perhaps stop young shoppers to buy without permission. In the case of fakes I agree that it needs to be deal with, not just cancel and allow the seller to keep doing it.

As we've said over and over, and as I've written in the Salearea Guides, and as has just been proven once again in the posts immediately following this one of your that I'm replying to, Google is worse than useless and is often dangerous when it comes to matters of authenticity.

There are tens of thousands of misidentified items, and links to hundreds if not thousands of totally wrong "Authenticity Guides" filled with mistakes and outright lies with links on Google. Please don't ever use it as an authenticity source.
