Posh encourages folks to "greet" new poshers and there's a "posh mentor" badge/trophy (depending whether you were a Girl Scout or are just a PlayStation junkie like me) for sharing new closets. Be careful you don't roll your eyes too hard! I know mine got a workout!

Thank YOU!
I've been buying on Posh for quite some time but I have nothing listed- however, I have a bunch of "Followers"
I always wondered WTHeck anyone was following me when I have an empty closet!

I appreciate your explanation- it finally answered that question.

And YES Giant EYE ROLL :rolleyes:

Folks will follow you just for you liking their items or follow you back too (even if you don't have any listings). Posh is kinda like a cult in that you're encouraged to follow folks like crazy to "grow your network" or something like that. I'm kinda smarta$$y so I don't really consider myself part of the cult. It basically gives me an excuse to buy 4 more pairs for every pair I sell... I seriously need excuses to buy more shoes bc I have too many.

You too? LOL
I have an even worse confession... I have a few pairs of boots & shoes (my absolute faves) of which I have TWO pairs. I have a pair in reserve in case I ruin the main pair I wear.:shame:
It's an awful thing to admit- but it's TROO.. Shhhh Don't tell anyone.
Jeans too- my faves I have 2 pair, just in case..

OMGosh!! Really? :heart:

Thank heaven- I thought I was a bit of a loon in doing that. :laugh:
Mine stems from having a few favorite clothing items get ruined & when I went to replace them, I couldn't find anything even close and nothing I liked as well as the ruined item.

Thank you so much for that! :hugs:
Now that I know I'm not alone, I don't feel so kooky about it.

Lol....yes, mine started years ago with one pair of white strappy shoes that broke 😜

Now, if one is great, two is better, especially before it sells out 😲😃😃

You are so not alone!!

Thank goodness I'm not the only one! I get multiples of the things I love--sometimes not even the right sizes (but close sizes) in case I ruin something and can't find it again at all (or in case I lose weight--not likely--or gain weight--always a possibility lol)

Ok so I'm not always THAT crazy but usually what happens is I buy something in a size that I can make work after stalking it a while. Then later I eventually find the size I need so I end up with two. But sometimes I mess up and end up with two in wrong/bad sizes. I always intend to sell the extras once I find the right sizes and I usually follow through... But sometimes I don't bc I definitely like having backups for the things I can't live without! :) completely justifiable!! Although my boyfriend shakes his head.

Yep.... Yep..... I found these lace shirts on Amazon, $11 each...... Very cute under dresses with no sleeves..... So I bought one in every color.

My worst obsession is with free People thermals..... I try to wait until they go on sale, but sometimes I don't. The only justification for that is I do a lot with my dogs (all rescues) and I wear them 4/5x a week in the morning..... Sigh... We're just practical, right 😲😜😃😃😃

There is a seller on Poshmark (surfer***) that claims she has a celebrity closet and donates all her proceeds to charity. For some reason, something seemed fishy about this person. A lot of her buyers have had issues with receiving shipment, delayed shipment, just issues in general, if you take a look at some of the comments on sold listings. She sells mostly wildfox items and claims she orders straight from the factory. One issue I have is all her pictures are stock photos and when someone asks for an actual photo of the item, she simply ignores. She makes up tons of excuses on her delayed responses or shipments and I don't see anyone getting fed up about it. Do you think it's because she pulls out the "for charity" card?

I did a little digging and it seems that she is a struggling "d-list actress" (not my words) by the name of Hannah Cornett. This actress has many websites accusing her of fraud and being a pathological liar. Which includes her charitable activities. If I am right and this is really her, I'm surprised no one has called her out on it.

Some reasons why I linked the seller to this Hannah Cornett, one of her Poshmark listings she provides an address of a company called MNPR to a customer to return an item. An article about the actress states the same company she states as being her agent. Which turns out to be fabricated by her.

Another reason is she is selling or sold her own clothes with picture of her from red carpet events just with her fave cropped out. If you google the actress, you'll see the same dresses.

Oh and the username is a big giveaway too.

It just bothers me she has a huge following of buyers who believe she is doing it for charity which encourages them to buy from her and not complain about her unprofessionalism.

What do you think?

Thank you for this! You did some good research. I noticed her closet once, along with her many followers & comments of admiration. However, I'm often suspicious of people and their sales tactics (I hate to admit), so I really didn't believe it either.

Just read this in the Posh News

A Message from the CEO


As you may already know, USPS shipping rates have been evolving. In order to adapt to these changes, we have made an adjustment to our shipping rate. Effective the evening of February 17, 2016, Poshmark flat rate shipping will be $5.95.
In the past months, we have been negotiating with USPS to keep our rates as low as possible for our community. While we were able to secure a discount, it was not as substantial as we had hoped, given that USPS raised their prices across the board earlier this year. After exploring all options — including tiered shipping — we have decided to keep our shipping fee flat to support the growth of all our sellers.
We are pleased to be able to continue to offer PoshPost — our unique shipping solution that provides flat rate shipping using USPS Priority Mail for all orders up to five pounds. PoshPost delivers the fastest shipping with the lowest price in the industry and is exclusively available to the Poshmark community.
Regards,

I've been getting a ton of error messages when I accept offers that state the buyer needs to update payment information. Last week I had two and today I have one. It's so annoying. One buyer didn't even update and the sale fell through.

I think they've had technical issues in this area. This happened to me when I made two offers that were accepted at the same time. I thought that was it until it happened again when I was making a straight purchase. I have had to re enter my payment information over six times in the past month it has been incredibly annoying. This has even happened to me when I have had credits in my account that would have covered the purchase. Of course when I complained they had no explanation except to point out to me that my purchase, had gone through. Yes, it went through, but it took me 15 minutes to update payment information that on my end was not incorrect nor unusable.
