I apologize for the delay in answering your question but I wanted to make sure I could answer it fully.
1. Over the years, I've reported hundreds of fakes (maybe even closer to 1000) and I have NEVER, EVER seen Poshmark remove a listing that's been reported as counterfeit.
2. I've posted on listings and contacted sellers to refer them to the appropriate "authenticate this" subforum to verify or question authenticity.
3. I can count on one hand the number of sellers who were honest enough to end their listings. Most sellers know exactly what they're peddling and instead of complying with the law (and Poshmark's unenforced policy), they curse me, accuse me and others who comment of sabotage, block me and/or report me.
4. Rather than doing the right thing and ending fraudulent listings (as does ebay, Tradesy and Bonanza), Poshmark lets the listings run and sell and ban the messenger.
5. When Poshmark bans a member, they don't let the member know why and in fact, they don't even let the member know she's been banned. Instead, when a banned member tries to ask the seller a question, the member gets a popup blaming the seller for blocking!
6. When a buyer receives a fake from Poshmark and it's deemed as such either here or professionally, Poshmark's own "authenticity team" of experts disputes said fake and deems it authentic.
7. And in one case where a buyer of a fake
Coach disputed authenticity on an obvious fake, Poshmark agreed to have their "experts" look at the bag in person. The buyer sent it in and Poshmark still didn't see that it was fake.
THese are just a few of the reasons why I don't do business (buying or selling) on Poshmark and I refuse to promote the site by authenticating listings. And it's too bad because there are some good, honest sellers with authentic items but unless and until PM does something in response to the fraud that permeates the site, I can't even recommend those honest sellers because helping them helps the site.
@Ddj634 - Aren't you glad you asked?
