Hi everyone. I've been searching for Balenciaga from certain years in colors that I like but can't find so far. Then I saw 1 in Poshmark n tried to buy but it says Poshmark is not available for my country. Does anyone has similar problem but managed to buy from Poshmark so far? I'd like to know the how to! TIA [emoji8]

Which country? I'm in Canada and have the same issue. I've emailed them to see if I can purchase if I use a freight forwarder, will let you know when they answer.

Here's the answer I received...

"Thank you for reaching out to us! Poshmark is currently only available in the United States and its territories, unfortunately if you have an international IP address then it is not possible to register or purchase. We hope to be available to international customers very soon as we continue to grow and develop."

So, you need a US IP address (Internet Protocol). I'm not a geek but I'm assuming that your email address indicates your location. It sounds like there's no way around it at this point unless you have a friend in the US you can work with.:shrugs:

I guess you can always watermark your images in the future.

Sure way of combating lazy sellers!

I reported it to eBay and I messaged the seller. The seller responded and said I shouldn't have reported it bc they found the image on Google. Wth?!?! I just replied saying that they should be using images of the actual item they're selling and not images they find from anywhere else. We'll see if they take it down.

Ok. I know this topic has been discussed many times here, and I've looked through countless threads, but most of them are older. I'm literally wracking my brain trying to decide between black velo ggh or black town ggh. Also, all of the sudden today I saw a Gris fossile velo with sgh and it was gorgeous. I want a carefree, crossbody bag that is light and easy for everyday. I'm just wondering if any of you who've had either or both for a while can help persuade me one way or the other. Many many thanks in advance. [emoji173]️

Big size difference between those two styles. Are you an essential items only person or do you need more room?

Ahhhh, that's the question that is haunting me. I typically carry LV Neverfull MM or speedy 30, and my other bals are cities with rh. I also have a LV pochette Metis which is just big enough for essentials only. I mainly just want a crossbody bal bc it'll be so light and easy. I could carry essentials only, but what I typically carry is my LV Emilie wallet (full sized), cosmetic pouch, brush, iPhone 6plus, key cles with keys, and maybe a mini pochette with odds and ends. I'm trying to decide whether the velo will look too bulky and big. I'm 5'9 and size 6. I just want to make sure it'll be something I can use regularly.

That's a toughie...I love the Velo, I'm only 5'1' so I kind of drown in it but I would think with your height it would look great. I've never tried the Town, the First is simply too small for me but the Town has that little bit more height. Too bad there's no cross body strap for the City! I'm hunting for an older City but I've always thought the removable strap should have been a few inches longer. Any place you can go and load up a Town with your essentials to see how they fit?

I agree, a crossbody city would be amazing! The nearest place to go and try them on is over an hour drive. I have 4 kids and they're all starting back at school (plus I work), so it's not realistic for me to do that anytime soon. The more I think about it I'm leaning toward the velo. I'm thinking the town is just going to be too small. I want to use it as an everyday bag, so it's probably not realistic to go with a smaller bag. Thanks! [emoji7]

As a mom the Velo is probably your better choice...Petite or not, I still see a Velo in my future! Please post a pic when you get yours!:D
