I made an offer with a seller I've bought from before. She didn't respond and now I see the offer has expired. My offer was low but I thought a reasonable seller (and she is experienced) would counter and not just ignore.
I'm thinking either she was insulted or she's just busy.
Would you submit the offer again?

Last time she took awhile to respond and then was somewhat hard nosed in negotiating but made her sale. The item I offered on yesterday has been listed for at least 7 months.

Can you see if she's been online since you made your offer? I seem to recall Posh showing when someone has last been active on their About page- however, I could be wrong as I haven't used Posh in a couple of years.
If she hasn't been active and probably hasn't seen your offer, then I'd try again. Otherwise, I wouldn't because she has shown she is not interested in negotiating.
Of course, if this is an item that's not available from other sellers, you could try your luck with a higher offer and see what happens.
Good luck!

shows she was last active march 30
but I think an offer would show in her email
I had a low offer on a bag recently. my first reaction was it was insulting. but I countered, she countered back and we reached a price I could live with.
I don't understand not countering, esp from a buyer who you've sold to before

In that case, I'd give her the benefit of the doubt. What if she or a loved one has covid or is ill? During times of stress, we're not looking at emails or checking our listings, you know?

If I were in your shoes now, I'd give it a couple of weeks and try again. I'd also look for other sellers who may have the same item in the meantime. Perhaps it's available for less elsewhere.

I would submit the offer again and then tag her saying, “hi I’m super interested in this item! Don’t know if you are active on Poshmark but would appreciate a response either way, thanks so much”

so if she’s busy, she’ll get back to you when she sees the comment.

from my experience, she doesn't answer questions (I sent one before making this offer) but she does usually respond to offers (at least she did before)

I ordered a pair of shoes three days ago for full price. They haven't shipped yet. I know she's still in the timeframe but just wanted to send her a friendly follow-up message. Posh says that when you go to your purchase page there is an option to message the seller. I have looked at it repeatedly and it's not there. If they changed this for some odd reason, then why does it still say you can do it?
I guess I just have to wait and see if/when she ships.

meantime I did send this question to Posh support but I got an auto reply saying they take 24 hours and maybe longer on the weekend to respond

I only use the app, but I see the option there. I went to purchase history, and there is a tab that says message seller.
