I just did my first Poshmark listing and I'm getting tons of followers. I guess a lot of people just follow everyone? or every purse seller?
I did a reposh and used the original pics adding one of my own and a few words in the description. would you have done all new pics?
thanks for any advice

I would have done all new pics but that’s just me. I never buy from sellers who use the reposh original seller pics.
Listing is easy. That’s all I know for nowIs selling on Posh easy? I've always used eBay but lately I'm so annoyed with them with their fees and now the 1099's!!!!
I sell on posh and mercari. I tried to sell an authentic Balenciaga (had it authenticated beforehand) on ebay. Ebay took it down and essentially told me that I wasn't allowed to sell Bals because they were a luxury brand and I had at the time only been selling Coach. The funny thing was that Bal bags were experiencing a slump at that time (still are I think) and Coach vintage was selling for huge amounts. So vintage Coach was going for more money than Bal. I'll still buy from ebay but will never go back there to sell.Is selling on Posh easy? I've always used eBay but lately I'm so annoyed with them with their fees and now the 1099's!!!!
Edited to add: I think I've complained about this before. Sorry for the retread. Guess I'm still pissed about it.
Is one easier than the other? Are the listing fees about the same? Posh has been around longer so things would probably get more traffic there, I assume?? Btw @samfalstaff , that's crazy what ebay did to you!
I don’t find posh or mercari more easier than the other. Posh I believe has significant higher fees. You can post videos to posh where Mercari you can’t. I don’t know I find all this tax document stuff confusing though. So I’m not sure if selling is really worth it.
Are they all doing the 1099s now? I thought it was just ebay? I would totally understand if I was a business but I'm not, in fact most of the time I'm losing money, not making more. It's stuff I've bought for myself, tired of it and just wanna sell to recoup some money. I don't think it's right that I have to pay taxes on that, whatsoever!!!
Pretty sure all of them. I already hit $650 in sales on mercari and they sent me something about that 1099 ugh. I sold a few things to Fashionphile for a couple thousand and have no clue how this tax thing works out. So until I have a better understanding I’m not selling anything more! My understanding is that if you sell an item for less than you bought it for you won’t be taxed. I’m not sure that is correct though.Are they all doing the 1099s now? I thought it was just ebay?
