I LOVE declining those low ball offers. Makes me feel good [emoji1364][emoji23]
Here has been my experience with Poshmark so far:
1. Bought a Coach Rogue bag. I waited 5 days and the seller never shipped it, so I asked when they were going to do so. They said they would ship it on "Tuesday" which came and went. After a week and a half of waiting, I canceled the sale. Here is the listing:
https://poshmark.com/listing/Coach-Mixed-Leather-Gray-Rogue-Tote-Handbag-5a38054036b9de140b0519ed
2. Searched for the same bag from another seller. Currently listed are 2 of the bag I want, from two different sellers in two different states using the exact same non-stock pictures. I asked them both why their pictures were identical to the other seller. I got no response.
Here are those listings:

Needless to say, thus far I'm not very impressed.

When someone is blocked, they can’t post anything on the listings or make purchases from the closet that blocked them. If the blocked person makes a comment in their own closet (or anyone else’s) tagging the person that blocked them, it will be visible to other people but the tagged person (that blocked) will not receive the notification that they were tagged. Kinda de-escalates the situation between the people I guess.
I know that as a blocked person, I can go through the motions of reporting a listing that is breaking posh rules—but does that report from a blocked person count towards the tally? Like is the behind-the-scenes functionality of reporting still working? I’m wondering bc I see repeat offenders deleting listings and remaking them, and I know that SEVERAL reports are made from different users which would usually be enough distinct user reports to get them over the threshold for posh to take down the relisting, but it doesn’t happen (so maybe the reports from the people that got blocked do not count??)
If that’s the case, the bad sellers have a loophole to avoid their listings being quickly removed by simply blocking the users that are likely to report them.

Also, there was a seller the past couple of days that keeps deleting and relisting a fake pair of louboutin ombré follies... offered at $425 (under the $500 authentication of course)
I got so fed up seeing them pop in my new items search, people commenting & getting blocked, deleted and relisted (wash, rinse, repeat) I tried buying them for $501 just so they’d go to headquarters and get tossed so she couldn’t try selling them anymore. I’d get my money back w/in 2 weeks and it would be worth it LOL!
Turns out you’re prevented from making an offer over the list price. WOMP WOMP WOMP! My plan totally did not work.

I didn't know you couldn't offer over list price. Pretty clever idea you had, too bad it didnt work!
There is this one woman who keeps adding one of my Tory Burch bags to a bundle with nothing else in it each time I lower the price on the item. Because I am a reasonable seller who actually wants my items to move, I offer her free shipping whenever she adds it to the bundle (although I am obligated to do nothing because the bundle is for 2 or more items from my closet). But then she proceeds to either decline or ignore my offer of list price + free shipping? What else could this woman possibly want from me?
She wants a further price reduction. I have someone who constantly adds my jewelry pieces to a bundle and whenever I have offered a reasonable reduction from list price she still doesn't buy. I have just stopped making offers. If she is a serious buyer she can just make her own offer.
Exactly! If she has a price in mind why doesn’t she just make an offer? Why make me play this guessing game? So annoying!
Most likely what she wants to pay is ridiculously low and is afraid of being called out for a lowball offer if she makes that offer.
Why do people send me bundle requests with only one item? I thought a bundle was for multiple items, then when I decide to make them a slight price break offer to their "bundle" of one item I usually get no response. Maybe people are clicking bundle in error?
I can't tell you how many times I bundle an item by mistake-and I don't know how to fix it. It happens when I 'like' an item.
I usually just block people like that. Its against policy and like you said if they want to buy it use poshmark!
