I just purchased a pair of shoes on PM on Thursday night and the seller has not shipped them. I commented on the post asking when the seller would ship them out yesterday and she still has not replied to my comment. I'm not sure what to do, these are literally my DREAM shoes - I waited and waited to see them go up on Posh and bought them as soon as they were posted so I don't want to report to Posh in case she just hasn't gotten around to it yet. Long story short, do you think I am at risk of losing the $$ that I put down on the shoes if I don't report that she hasn't shipped them yet? I have never had this happen yet in my 2 years using Posh. Any advice is welcomed!! Thanks!:
Does anyone use Poshmark?

Lots of sellers post their items on several sites. Some of my Poshmark items are also for sell on EBay.It's quite common.
I started selling my items on three sites and it has increase my sales! You have to be on top of it. I got tired of just putting it on tradesy and got good sales on poshmark.
I sell on multiple sites also. I remembered there was a thread on them and was wondering if they were one and the same. Seems so.
PM is an interesting site for sure. I've recently purchased 3 items from sellers on there. The first purchase was flawless and wonderful.
Second purchase, not so much. I bought a wallet and the photos weren't great but that seems to be the norm on there (no offense to all of you who take wonderful photos, you are much appreciated!)
But someone did ask the question if the wallet had any stains, rips or other problems and the answer was...."nope, it's just as it's pictured" or something to that effect.
So because the price was great for this item I took a chance.
Got it today and not happy at all. There is a stain on the front (looks like some sort of water/liquid stain) and the inside pockets are all very dingy and two of those have quite visible stains as well.
Even though I didn't pay much for this piece it will be going back. My biggest gripe with PM is the lack of measurements on about 90% of the items that I've looked at thus far.
I'm somewhat of an impulse shopper, when I'm ready to buy then I'm ready to buy! I hate having to wait for an answer on information that should be obviously included in the listing.
Granted that some of these sellers may be new to selling online but if they aren't then I guess they maybe need to try a bit harder.
My current purchase today is one I'm most excited about so hopefully that will work out.

what's the deal with Poshers who are active users yet don't ship your order or tell you when they might ship?
It bothers me that I have to allow7 days for seller to ship and cannot cancel before that.
Poshmark has been more negative than positive for me as a buyer. More than half the time sellers apparently don't even have the item or can't be bothered to ship.

It bugs me when people don't reply and you can see that they're active! I never purchase from pm but I do sell. I let buyers know when I ship which is mostly the next day or same day. I hate it when people ask me about pricing and go missing when I respond.
I feel your pain.
and this person has the nerve to chew someone else out when they did the same thing to her
+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 didn't know you can block people. Good to know. I had the same girl follow me from Posh to Merc with the same low ball offer.
Re low ball offers... I give them the benefit of the doubt when they offer less than half (maybe they figure it doesn't hurt to ask), respond with a reasonable counter offer, then they come back with a nominal increase. Mind you we are over $60 apart. So I decline and block. But apparently if they already made an offer they can continue to offer, because I have had two consecutive parties make another offer (still ridiculous) after being declined and blocked.
After purchasing since 2013, I just listed some items for sale since I have finally bitten the bullet and gotten a smart phone! I listed prices for my items but how do I mark that I am open to offers on each item?
instead of cancelling the order they just never ship and never say a word. Just strange.
meanwhile i am positive this seller won't be shipping so I'm waiting till day 7 to get a refund. Currently on day 5 lol.

yeah what is with all the random follows?
I don't even sell, never have, and i get them.
I don't understand it either. I get a lot of that & I have no clue why they do that or what the purpose is. I've never sold anything & as far as I know, have not set up a closet. If I do have a closet, it's empty.
