Thanks sharing all the insights! How do you think about Poshmark's authentication service? Is it trustworthy? Do you recommend me to get a 3rd party authenticator just to be sure? I just bought a Chanel long wallet from there for over $500. Thanks sharing your thoughts :smile: :smile:
They are notorious for not having a clue about authentication. There used to be a lady...Carol Davis? I might have the name wrong but she used to do it, not sure what brands she did. Sorry.

As a buyer, I hate Poshmark. There's no communication from the seller you don't know when or if they're going to ship. In the meantime, they've grabbed my money, but the seller won't get it until I approve it. As a seller, I don't like the model. And it seems that eBay has adapted this approach.

As a seller I love it. I don't have to worry as much about forced returns like I do with ebay. With ebay, I get my money the next day, whether or not I ship. But I have to worry for a couple of weeks that my buyer will make up an excuse to force me to accept a return; then I lose my shipping cost and have to pay for them to ship it back.

Would you like it better if the seller sent the buyer a message when they ship? I don't even know for sure how to do this. Doesn't the buyer get a message when the package starts tracking?

I would prefer if they did that. Or just any kind of communication if they can't ship right away? Things do come up. I don't expect people to act like Amazon or Zappos, but I don't like the sound of crickets either.
As soon as they buy, I send them this message:
Thanks you for your purchase. I am packing it up tonite and it will go out tomorrow am. Again,Thanks and Enjoy!
