This may have been mentioned earlier in this thread but I just noticed it. We can now report listings that have the wrong brand. This drives me insane when I am shopping on there. There are so many sellers on there who just list their crappy item under whatever brand they please and then say in they are doing it for exposure. Not sure if it will help but report these please!

I'm probably going to be deleting my Poshmark account. Its getting ridiculous. I keep putting my account on vacation hold and they keep lifting the vacation hold early. And I seem to be getting notifications for everything *except* sales, offers and comments on my items. And on the app, the comments on my items are all swamped down in their sales listing notifications from other closets (and don't all show up under my comments sections...).
I had a vintage gucci monogram bag up once for a fair price and someone offered me $20. I politely declined. The girl continued messaging why I was asking so much for a "used old bag." I ended up selling it on Tradesy for my asking.
Honestly, there are just some clueless people on Poshmark. The same people who will lowball you are the ones that have a closet full of used, worn clothes from Target (not talking bad about Target clothing but we all know there isn't much of a resale value!) The amount of teenagers and college students also waters down what things sell for. Good for me however when I want to buy.
Hi, I've never listed on PM but today I tried 2 listings.
How are the sellers notified that something is sold? or if there are questions in that comments section? I don't see any alert notifications for the sellers?
Also after I listed just 2 items, I immediately received comments on whether something is still available, please email or text her at xxx-xxxx, etc - what is that about, somebody trying to make a lowball offer I am thinking? thanks

It's a scammer, don't reply and block and report spam. I get these all the time.
Thanks... my initial reaction to PM is that it is a good, streamlined app for listing - EXCEPT for the photos area where uploading photos that you have already taken elsewhere is simply horrible. Not sure if this is a showstopper for me in using the app. Their app crops photos to square and there is no way to realign them I have found.
I get notified through email. Poshmark is full of lowballers and scammers. Most of my best buyers are new to Poshmark and buy at the asking price. The ones that lowball usually are never satisfied and are the problem buyers. Just make sure you keep all transactions and conversations on Poshmark and you should be safe.
thanks, I got one of those lowball offers, do you just ignore them or does PM like you to reply? I prefer to just ignore. There's no private communication, at any rate.
Overall I like the listing process on posh.
I always reply to offers, even the insulting ones. I don't like to call people out in the comments though, just use the counteroffer feature. I've found that some people end up offering a fair price if you counter, they just start low to see what they can get.
I try not to take it too personally anymore, though sometimes it's still annoying. If it's a super ridiculous offer, I have occasionally countered with my exact listing price rather than decline, just to give them the hint that they aren't even close.
If the offer is in the comments I usually tell them to use the offer button. I never respond to comment offers but if someone uses the offer button I will either counter offer or accept. Lately I have sold 3 items at asking price and these were higher priced items so sometimes it works out great.
thanks... thats why I am posting on here, I don't really know how the site is used. I will reply with the counteroffer (which I have not seen/used yet).
My other question is about shares. I got a few hundred followers right away just by listing. PM does seem to have a lot of traffic at any rate. I have only a few shares because I am so new. You are supposed to share from somebody's closet whenever they share one of yours? What do you do- just look in their closet and find the thing you like and "share on poshmark"? Seems like that would take a lot of time every day.
Also at least for me, PM's search is as bad as Tradesy right now. Search on DOMA jackets, a bunch of purses come up. things like that. Unless my listings are not coming up because they are new, no one will find my stuff (which is the same problem I have with Tradesy).
thanks- I'm already wise to the lowballers/frequent questioners, etc - people that take up a ton of time about wanting to buy a listing- from ebay. I find you never hear from the best buyers. They might ask for dimensions or some detail, then the next night they buy. Thats the kind of buyer I am. I have bought one item on PM and I paid the ask, didn't even communicate with the seller even though there was a huge buzz going on in the comments about the jacket.
I listed a desirable leather jacket on ebay for $399. This woman kept contacting me about it. Finally I caved and discounted it a little and shipped it. 3 weeks later she contacts me stating that there were "holes" on one of the sleeves she didn't see earlier and wanted to file a NAD claim. Never again, I've decided not to communicate too much with these sorts, just give them dimensions and some details and thats it.
