One of the accounts that I keep seeing is posh777 (I might be misspelling it). He/she only buys Chanel and LV but gets a ton of good deals. There's another one that is slipping my mind now but I know that account is a reseller because the person buys the item on Posh and then I later see it on Tradesy. Both accounts have close to 10k followers but there's nothing in either closet. I just thought that was odd and wanted to know the reason. BTW, I never knew about automatic followers. What is that? Posh just randomly makes accounts follow each other?

I couldn't find them (found a similar account but only 1800 followers?), but that's interesting.

When you first sign up, Posh automatically assigns you a random number of followers.

Wow, you're right. I signed up and made a purchase last week. I haven't been on Posh again, never looked at anything else, never listed anything. I just logged in, and I have 14 followers, and I'm following 121!

Yes! Anytime a Chanel or Hermes (and apparently LV) high end item is listed this person tries to get the seller to come way down in price or buy by PayPal. I figured they are a reseller. I bought a Hermes bag on poshmark and then the seller cancelled because this person messaged them on another listing that they would pay them more than they would get on poshmark via PayPal. These things happen and I don’t get mad about it, but I was a little disgusted that they have so little regard for social norms. I wonder if they have so many followers because they literally try to buy every high end item of these brands, maybe after they follow the seller or comment on their listing then the seller follows them?

That should be reported as a transaction off poshmark. It's theft of services for people to use Posh to advertise their listings and find a buyer and then cut Posh out of any commission by taking the transaction to PayPal.

I sell on multiple sites, if I sell something on another site but the item is still on poshmark what is the preferred method for poshmark, deleting the item or just marking it "not for sale", clearly I mark it not for sale until I know the buyer is happy and all is well but just wondered if it was annoying to see "not for sale" on a bunch of items in someone's closet.

I remove them. I know some poshers report items that are "not for sale" and marked as sold as transaction off posh. posh sometimes offers me (all of us I guess) to review reported items and agree / not agree to them, there are lots of not for sale items that reported as transaction off poshmark even if there are no contacts / messages about any transactions off site

I mark "SOLD" in the title and not for sale if it has a lot of likes, so people if people go back to look at their likes they know its no longer available. If it doesn't have many likes I just delete it. I also think it's good to show that your stuff has sold so people know not to wait around forever to buy what you have. I do think some people may report these as a transaction off posh, which is annoying because that's for people who use the posh platform to find buyers and then take the transaction offline to save on fees, not for people who legitimately sold their item on another site.

This weird thing just happened to me on Poshmark yesterday... I was searching for a specific wallet and “liked” a couple. Then I went to My Likes and clicked on the newer of the two, and asked the seller a question about it, and then continued with my search. A while later I went back to My Likes and that wallet was not there, but I didn’t remove/unlike it. I searched for it again, but it was nowhere to be found. Has that ever happened to anyone? It made me wonder if the seller quickly deleted it from her closet, or blocked me. I’m so confused.

It just means the seller deleted the item. They might have sold it on another platform, or changed their mind. If they blocked you, you would still see the listing but would be unable to comment or offer.

THIS is an example of what’s bad about poshmark... search for user penelope_renee

This wackadoo went on a rampage of insensitive slurs out of the blue and then started accusing everyone of filthy language and racism toward... even though for the most part, nobody said anything to her that is on her same level (some people did get sucked in)

It is mind-boggling. I don’t have words to describe it other than WOW.

I’ve reported the user, her listings, her comments. Nothing has been removed. I’ve never seen anything like it.

I’m just super glad that I’ve connected with good people—if that had been my first experience on the platform I would run away and never go back

They finally removed her fake pair that had a stream of nasty insensitive comments. Must have finally reached the threshold of unique user reports (so thanks for your help!)

She still has up a couple of listings calling people slurs so hopefully they’ll get cleaned out too and it will be back to her normal listings without all the hate speech.
