Does anyone use Poshmark?

I hate Posh. I had the app but never set up an account. I opened the app one day to see a message that if I bought something that day I would get 99 cent shipping.

I did buy something that day. Got charged $5.99 for shipping. Sent a request to their CS email for a refund of the $5.

Almost a week later I got an email that I wasn't eligible for the special because of (list of 7 possible reasons) none of which were correct.

Sent a very angry reply that I wasn't going to do anymore business with a site run so poorly.

After another week I got an email that I would be credited $5 on a future purchase. Ha!

It will be a cold day in Hell. I won't do any business on such a site. 7 days reply on an email is ridiculous.
 
I made an offer on Poshmark for a Lanvin Dust bag (price was $40, I offered $30). I didn't get an email of any kind to say my offer expired (which it did). Its as if you need to monitor the site often to see the status of things, which I don't do.
My big complaint is that the site seems to be designed for phones only, and I use a computer mostly for buying things. Phones are nice for immediate news or notifications but I like big pictures to buy things.
BTW, Is there a $10 off coupon out there somewhere? I keep reading about a $10 off coupon, if I could find it then I would use it on that dustbag.
 
I tried it a couple of months ago and it was not working for me because

1. they limit the amount of pictures (is it 4 or something? can't remember) you can include in your listing and there is no way I can picture everything accurately with such a small number of images.

2. no traffic or sales for months. I specifically listed low priced items (because that seems to be what attracts people on there) but nothing sold.

3. too many notifications. I wasn't making sales but my phone was constantly getting notifications of all the people who is liking my posts or inviting me to join events? It was very annoying.

Ultimately I removed all my listings and the app from my phone.

i thought about removing my stuff and doing the same thing. Are you going to sell them on eBay?
 
Yes, I eventually moved all my stuff to Tradesy and eBay. I have no idea how people are able to sell things on Poshmark. The stuff I listed were very low priced as that's what I've been told that Poshmark's customers are more toward the lower end things. But I never sold anything on there. In reading through Poshmark, it seems like they recommend you to like other's listings as that's how you get visibilities for your own items by sharing. I got a TON of likes (and my phone was blowing up with all the notifications of people liking my items).

I think everyone is doing it to help drive traffic to their own listings but when too many people are doing the same thing, I don't think there's much of use for it.
Poshmark felt kind of like a online/mobile flea market to me (just my own experience. may be others think differently.) The whole platform felt very "messy" (or may be I'm just getting too old for new things) and I hate that's it's app only. I like to do my listings on PC to make sure I include all the details and have nice pictures.
 
So about 2 weeks ago, I had some random account spam every single one of my listings. The account holder claimed I sold her an non-authentic bag and basically to beware. I've never sold a designer bag on Poshmark. I couldn't even if I wanted to, considering how designer items on Posh sit there for weeks with no activity. The only things I've been able to off load on Posh are old clothes and shoes, so those claims have no validity. In any case, I contact Posh to let them know about the situation. They tell me that that kind of behavior is not tolerated. I thought more would be done, but that seems like that's it. The account is still active and the posts are still on every single one of my listings. I contact them again, and once more they give my that nonsense, automated answer. It's been 3 weeks since it all happened and nothing has been done. So on Monday I got fed up with the lack of actions taken by Posh and e-mailed them to close my account because apparently you, the account holder, are not allowed to do that on your own! It's been 4 days and still...*crickets*...

Anyone know of any other other actions I can take to remove myself from this incompetent company?

You can remove your listings in the meantime, then the comments/ability for others to comment will be gone. Hopefully you don't have too many items uploaded.

You can delete your account so long as all your transactions are completed

I actually have over 200 listings of just clothes and shoes. She/He spammed all of them. Even if I were to remove them and then repost, I cannot delete the SOLD listings. Those are there to stay.

What a headache! It would have been nice if that person had used that time for something productive instead of spamming 200 listings your closet. That is unbelievable.
