I know some people here are pretty active and actually make a business out of selling bags. I'm a small seller - don't sell frequently and often lose money. I have a few items on Poshmark with no offers. Right now I'm feeling ambivalent. I have things I'd like to sell but maybe I'm feeling lazy to write the ads or pessimistic that they will sell. Anyone else like this? Guess I'll know when I'm ready.

There is a lot going on in the world right now & have a friend that works in an upscale store
here in NYC & she says "business has been very quiet in general"
With the holidays coming up, people tend to buy gifts where they can be exchanged or returned
So Poshmark as well as many brick & mortar stores may be slow. I'm also receiving
many promos which I think is a telling sign
With your comment," Guess I'll know when I'm ready" will motivate you to where you want to be
but to me at the end of the day, it's always worth a shot to put your items up for sale as long as you
are being realistic, you just never know, JMO

I've been in a buying mood lately and would love to be able to have credit on Posh to buy rather than paying "real money"
I do have one item I think I'll post soon
thanks
 
I don’t have selling experience with poshmark but I’ve sold a lot of luxury handbags and slgs on eBay. I noticed that in general my sales slowed down about a year or year and a half ago. I still have some stuff to sell but I’m less motivated to list items knowing that it may take a while to sell.
