Oh no, I think I got a scammer. This guy that purchased my brand new Saint Laurent women sandals just messaged me under the order and said" The system is saying they’ve been delivered, but in fact they have not. This is relatively common to get early false notifications. It will probably arrive tomorrow or the next day." I noticed he has never left feedback for anyone else on PM or sold anything. But you can see when they have bought something on PM before when PM buyers leave a message under their account. He had purchased some Gucci shoes and it sounds like he never accepted them. I messaged him and thanked him for his purchase, shipped them out the next day and never heard anything from him. Maybe he's not a scammer, but his message sounds like he's done this before!!! I have never had a buyer send a message like his. I have not responded to his message. Should I just not respond? All I care is I get paid in 3 days.
I wouldn't respond. I believe that as long as the system says they were delivered, you shouldn't worry.

It is not relatively common to get false notifications. On your end does it show delivered?

That's what I thought. I had never heard of that. Yes, it shows the shoes were delivered today.
There are some mail carriers that mark things as delivered before they actually deliver them. Sometimes they don't actually get delivered until the next day. They aren't supposed to do this but it happens.
 
Oh thanks, I had no idea!
Mine did it every time. I don’t really buy on Poshmark anymore, but every time I did, I would get a notification that it was delivered and it would be marked as delivered, but then when I would check it was not there. At first I would be nervous and check with all of the neighbors, but then I learned that it would always come the next day instead.

Wow I am so used to my mail carrier doing it after he puts it on the porch!
 
Help, I went to my post office at 1:30 PM today and use the Kiosk inside the post office to scan my Poshmark Package, which I do all the time. There was a man putting a big box of packages into the post office pull down mailbox inside the lobby. As soon as he was done I grabbed my Poshmark package and put my package in the pull down before it got jammed. I normally wait until my receipt prints out before I put my package into the pull down mailbox, but wanted to get my package into the mailbox before someone else came and put in more packages. The pull down mailbox gets stuck all of the time, because people put in too many packages. The one time I did not wait for the receipt I had an issue. They ran out of paper for the receipts, so it did not print out. It did scan my package and show the USPS tracking number. It's been 6 hours now and its still not showing that I dropped of the package. This is a $400 brand new jacket. I did mark it as shipped under the order. I don't want to lose my $400 jacket and my $. What happens if it doesn't start tracking until the buyer gets it? Today was the 3rd day. I messaged the buyer on Friday when she purchased the jacket and told her I would ship her jacket today. I was out of town over the weekend.

If it wasn't scanned when you dropped it off, it will probably get scanned at some point along the way, probably when it reaches the first distribution center. I wouldn't worry too much.

Yes, I did scan it. Once I scanned it I pressed the key to print out the receipt, but it never printed the receipt. It had run out of paper. I will never make this mistake again. I would not have put the package into the mail box if I had known the receipt wasn't going to print.

You were right. USPS finally scanned it at my post office last night. I scanned it at the Kiosk at 1:30 PM, but the post office didn't scan my packages and all the other packages until 10:30 PM. That kiosk worked, because I scanned my package it the USPS number came up. Then it asked if I wanted a printed receipt, but the printer wasn't working. I will never leave a package at USPS without a scanned or emailed receipt again. It's too much stress when the item is over $300.
