How long has the item been listed? I sold the 3 items I listed within a month. I guess it would depend on the item and the price though.
Does anyone use Poshmark?

I sold a Chanel purse on postmark and mailed to postmark for authentication then it heads off to the buyer. Tradesy takes time, I decided to place my items both on Tradesy and postmark.
Just a few days ago. I'm hoping someone purchases it soon[emoji20] can I ask what brands the bags were?
+1 I agree. Recently (SERIOUSLY happened a few mins ago lol) did this to a low baller,she made a new account LITERALLY after me rejecting her offer. I blocked her and she pretended she was someone else on my listing LOL (mind you,she is using a similar user name on the "fake profile" that corresponds with her real user name. le sigh lol
) She pretended she was interested and made the SAME exact low ball offer. *sighs* Gotta love a persistent Posher! I have a feeling this one will come back after the second block lol
Here's a reverse one....... I made a $32 offer on a $40 item (I usually offer 20% below, and have no problem with that if someone does it to me) in both instances I consider it a starting point and I'm happy with a 10% counter or in some cases no counter if I really like the item. Sometimes I will sell something out of my closet 20% off if it hasn't sold in awhile or sometimes I will counter at 10. Anyway, this person declined my offer so I asked if they had a policy of not accepting offers because I was going to go ahead and purchase it at $40 because I liked the item and it was still not a bad price. When I went to look at her reply she had raised the price to double and she said that I had offered her $25 on a $300 item, none of which was true. I don't know what is wrong with people, she lost out on a sale and then basically gave me the finger because she didn't like my offer...... she had just signed up in January and has no followers and no shares, she claimed her "employee" listed the item at the incorrect price. I googled her and let's just say there's no way she has any employees..... I'm getting too old for this...... it's everyone's right to accept or not accept offers, there is one seller I bought multiple items from that says straight out on the listing that she will not accept offers as she feels her prices are fair. Great, no problem. But to go back and forth over nonsense is so stupid.
I do not consider a 20% a low ball, do any of you? I think anything past that is....

No 20% is not a lowball offer at all. Some people are just so unethical on Posh.
I liked and commented on a jacket for my Father(it was a unisex item!) and the person had doubled the price the next day and asked me if I was going to buy it!! Umm NO.
Some people are so greedy
Sheesh I would think a seller doubling the price under those circumstances is dreaming to think you would buy. Not to say a future buyer won't come along but they will have burned a bridge with the first person. I have raised prices if I was having second thoughts about selling, but never to coerce more $$ from an interested party.
Things that make you say hmmm ... I made an offer of $80 on a $90 item. The buyer never responded to the offer. One week later she has it listed with a new price of ... yep ... $80. WTF?
Thanks ladies I didn't think 20% was either but thought I'd check in. Yes very greedy and stupid. Mama didn't raise no sucker lol.
Miss Marion that happened to me a couple of times I think that they were hoping it would sell for higher but knowing they had an offer at the lower price they lowered it to that hoping you would buy.
Joined this morning thanks to you ladies! My intention was to use this to clean out my closet, yet I've already bought two handbags with it today...
You are probably right. I was irritated that she didn't respond to the offer at all, or at least tag me when she changed the price. I bought something similar that I liked better. It was $100, which I thought was a fair price, so I didn't make an offer. Just paid the listed price. Which brings up another pet peeve. So many times the seller doesn't comment at all when you buy. I usually say thanks and let them know when I will ship. It just takes a second and lets them know you are monitoring your account, not an MIA seller.

Funny how that works huh...Happened with me too- an Posh, on eBay and so on...
Oh I sell but I think I buy as much, if not more than I sell..
BTW Welcome to TPF... :welcome2:
I've sold some expensive items on poshmark (MJ stam, where the buyer and I met up which avoided the dreaded 20% fees and she got to see it in person) and tradesy (burberry trench coat.) I think the key is to be patient and not let the "huns, doll, low ball offers, and general ridiculous inquiries" get to you. I've had buyers try to low ball me, where I've countered their offer, and they countered me and raised their initial offer $5-$10....Really? LOL.
