All of the above apply to me too!the naughty list
I hate poshmark so I’m a lurker.
If I see something I want I scout the rest of their listings to find out their eBay usernames and buy through eBay instead.
I’m kinda a poshmark stalker
Does anyone use Poshmark?

Not sure whether or not that’s a poshmark violation (which may or may not put her on the naughty list) but the seller has the ability to cancel the sale. The sold listing never disappears so the only way they can continue to try selling the item after canceling the sale is to make a new listing.
I hate poshmark so I’m a lurker. I talk to people through listings and some ladies help me find shoes I can’t find through my “wanted” listings. If I see something I want I scout the rest of their listings to find out their eBay usernames and buy through eBay instead. So I do notice if they have the same item listed multiple times on poshmark and that would be a red flag to me. I guess that means I’m kinda a poshmark stalker since I look at all their listings and comments to figure out if they’re a wackadoo I’d rather avoid... then again when it comes to shoes I’ll put up with lots of wackadoo! Especially if I can buy it on eBay instead
Yup, there's plenty of drama to be found in the listings. Just thought it was strange because I sold a lot and never checked the buyers ratings, don't even know if buyers have ratings. If they do.
You’re absolutely right. There’s no buyer ratings on poshmark. And from what we’ve seen divulged on some of the listings, there’s equally as many wackadoo buyers as sellers! There really ought to be some way to rate buyers. I feel really bad for some of the sellers that have posted here or that I’ve come across while stalking poshmark listings.
As a buyer, if someone rips me off I get my money back... but as a seller, some of these shenanigans result in you losing your item (or returned to you with buyer-damage) which would break my heart. I develop unreasonable attachments to things. People suck. Shoes are awesome [emoji13]
How does one “gracefully” decline the annoying (reseller) question “what is your lowest price” on Poshmark? It is easy to just ignore and delete on Tradesy where conversations are private, but for Poshmark where everyone can see your interactions, I don’t want other potential buyers to see that I don’t respond. 
Just tell them to send an offer and you can let them know through there. You don't discuss pricing on the actual listing.How does one “gracefully” decline the annoying (reseller) question “what is your lowest price” on Poshmark?

I commented here:
eBay pet peeves! Post yours!
My order status says "pending usps scan" does anyone know what this means?
I asked the seller, if they had shipped the item, and they told me yes, on Monday. I don't know whether to believe them or not. I'm ready to cancel the order as its been more than 7 days!!! Ahhhhhh!

It could mean two things:
1. Seller lied. Pending USPS scan means that the item has not been scanned by a USPS; therefore, not yet in their possession.
2. The seller dropped it off (didn’t get it scanned in) but the package is missing.
I’m betting it’s most likely scenario #1. Posh labels are priority mail. Even if the drop off missed the initial scan, subsequent scans (ie delivery scans) do show up. It is rare for an item to go from point A to point B without a single scan, especially after 1 week.
I’ve sold items that haven’t scanned until the very last moment when “out for delivery” which was terrifying to me as a seller. There’s multiple points at which scanning should be occurring but I’m told that sometimes the printed labels won’t scan and then an employee would have to enter the tracking numbers manually to update the status—and as you can imagine that’s just not something people are willing to do on the regular.
When I’ve had this problem, I was using an inkjet printer that constantly required me to clean/align the printer guts which always left me with barely any ink. So my labels were either dim or not very legible. And I always tape over the labels so they can’t rip or get wet/smudge. Since I got a laser printer and started making sure my taping was clean (no wrinkles) I haven’t had it happen, which could just be a coincidence. But to be super sure im never left reassuring a buyer that I really did ship it, I take the packages to a bodega w/ usps pick ups and ask them to scan it to ENSURE it will scan properly (and then the tracking will at least show its acceptance). At the post office they may or may not scan for you but they’re always willing to do it for me at the bodega.
So seller could be lying but it’s not out of the ordinary for tracking to be jacked up either. Others have shared similar tracking snafus as mine. If you look at the seller’s sold listings and read the comments you may be able to get an idea whether the seller is reliable or not.
My current carrier usually scans upon pickup but she is often out sick or has a day off and the substitute doesn't scan. If the packages don't make it back to the post office before the truck leaves for the distribution center, they will sit at the post office for another day without being scanned. Usually they are scanned on the second day once they reach the distribution center. I used to occasionally have items that didn't get scanned until they were delivered. I think the main reason that doesn't happen much anymore is that the post office has been pushing their employees to scan more often. Some of the older carriers didn't know how to use the scanners and didn't bother to learn. I could never get my old carrier to scan. I think they have also improved the scanning equipment.
I have to be honest, even though I don’t think Poshmark is perfect and there are some things I dislike about them, I am beginning to appreciate them more than Tradesy. At least Poshmark cuts a check for me (so I don’t have to pay that silly 3% transfer fee) and they don’t pull any BS when it comes to actually giving me my money.
Also, because they’ve stayed consistent with their service and fees, my sales have been consistent. Granted, I haven’t sold anything that is high dollar/high risk yet, so I cannot comment on that.

I have purchased 2 bags in there. The nice thing is that they do the authentication if the item is over $500.I'm obsessed with this app! I think it's still only for Apple users. But it's an awesome community and extremely safe. I had a scare with eBay earlier today and it's making me more grateful for this app.
They take care of all of the shipping which makes it extremely easy and its a flat $7. Only drawback for sellers is it takes a 20% commission but it's not too bad if you take into account how much more accessable the customer service and buyer/seller protection is.
If you use the code "HBAWP" you can get a $5 credit to shop with! It's all womens fashion and I've found some amazing steals on there
I’m on the naughty list now as well.
Whenever I’ve been stalking a pair on the entire interwebs for months with no luck finding them, I make a “wanted” listing in case someone has them, in hopes I can coax them to sell. I did this today and someone reported it as a fake so poshmark removed it within 20 minutes of my posting after a couple followers share it. But of course, they did it without even notifying me. It wasn’t a fake—it wasn’t even an item for sale. In fact, similar to what happened to another forum user, I myself can see the listing in my own closet through the app but it’s removed from view of other users or from myself if I browse through the web without signing in.
So within the app, I deleted it and made a new listing. But I’m no longer able to list things bc I keep getting a pop up message that I’m not allowed to post counterfeit items.
If I earned my spot on the naughty list by calling out fakes I’d be proud. Instead I’m on the naughty list for a dumb reason. I’m pretty deflated.

Welcome to my world!
For whatever reason, when a site like PM bans you, it's not a horrible thing.
