agreeed ^^^ @posheditor
sarahkatherine
But I love Michael Kors, J Crew, and Tory Burch! So classy!
dee7331
@sarahkatherine me too!! But it's a gazillion other classy designers out there..lol
maribizel03
@dee7331 and its always the same items! Never anything new! I also noticed that no one is buying as much anymore! :(
dee7331
@maribizel03 agreed!!!!! Maybe because it's no variety...
rross
I agree!
ggcruz1011
No I love them😉
influence
It's because posh is all about money and nothing else. Where do you think all big 20% comes from? All the big designer names.
dee7331
@influence yea I guess ur right.. But it's still other expensive brands they can be using..I'm just sick of the same thing over and over
margauxfashion
Hahahaha! So true!
influence
I agree. I just don't like PM period. Lol Sry
fashionqueenb
Loool..yes🙋
b3416
@dee7331 You are SO right. Every other day, same old thing! Plus, not everyone can afford those high priced designers. Sometimes, Posh needs to think Quantity will also bring in $$$.
stylingwithme
It's boring, redundant and I rarely bother with it. I have two Coach purses for sell and if they don't I'll keep them as they are classics and Coach is certainly well made with good leather and hardware. I would like to see more expensive brands besides these few every other day. I thought it was everyday! Out with this or add more brands. Some of these expensive purses aren't that well cared for and there should be a section B designer purses for those with any flaws. I won't pay THAT much for a scuffed or stained purse just because its Coach, Hermes, or Chanel. And I see one person asking us to help her by buying her used Coaches. She has about 100 of them! Maybe that's why she is in such bad shape....spent thousands on Coach! I don't think "sad sorry notices" should be allowed. That is not the caliber of class here on POSH. We don't want to read pitiful begs to buy! This isn't that kind of place. Beggars, please CLASS UP!
mollydolly
@influence agreed! and either way--most people selling their very expensive items (500$ and up are using paypal in the end anyway.)
justfabulous32
@stylingwithme I agree with you,.. I see a lot of it. I won't buy from them either ,.. I do check out the closets LV bags and more. Lol
maritza13
I'm tired of the same theme parties on the same day. For example, today they had Coach, TB and MK bags followed by the Hot Handbags party. They should have a bag party, a shoe party, and a clothes party daily. I agree that they need to add more name brands to the parties. I don't care much for the expensive name brands such as Channel, LV or Kate Spade bc I can't afford them.
jodyleehall
More LAMB handbags please!!! :-)
christinfrances
I have Authentic NWT Hammitt Los Angeles hand bags posted for sale. I sell them at my online boutique with other brands like Sienna Ray & Co. Take a look I can work with deals through PP. I have more than one of each handbag in my inventory. Will post Sienna Ray bags soon! :)
brookejaimie
@stylingwithme You are a class act :) I don't think anyone can say it better than that! :) And if we are on the subject of rants and boring listings, No offense to TB, I love it all, but why so gosh darn expensive!!!? The quality is the same calibur as Coach yet the shoes are rediculously over priced. 160 for ballet flats! COME ON! @jodyleehall I saw one LAMB bag on here that I fell in love with and it sold right away. I am with You!!!
deelea71
I'd like to see a Kathy van Zeeland party!
aclassycloset4u
I would like to see a Dooney & Bourke or DKNY party.
mamamia555
@dee7331 Thank you ...yes I am 😒 Is supposed to be things from our closets. It just makes me wonder how SO many people have SO many expensive bags...where do they get them? ✨
realfashion
Visit my closet.!! Louis Vuitton & Gucci
maritza13
I would like to see Vera Wang more Victoria Secrets, Guess, Urban Outfitters, Gap, The Limited, more Express
gettumgirl
@mamamia555 ....Mia you asked where do the expensive bags come from ...some people really collect these pieces...and for myself I love vintage!!!...Yes posh should do a Vintage party!!!....those pieces you won't see anyone with...I have some pieces in my closet you will NOT see anyone with..I like today's high end too...but won't touch it...I'm not paying 1200 to see Rhonda and Marie rocking the same bag...I buy most of my high ends from consignment ...but to each there own I guess???
mamamia555
@gettumgirl thanks for the response, I just always wondered.i just checked out your closet...love it,it's so diverse...lots to look at 💕💕💕Mia
gettumgirl
@mamamia555 ...thank you Mia!!!
cmb1972
Agree!
fabicase
Yes more variety would be great! 😊
rosslynd
My personal pet peeve is saying that its Kenneth Cole to find out by looking at the pic that its Reaction. Or they say pre-loved but when you look at it it's beat up. I just purchased a pair of Ed Hardy shoes and when I received them there was gum or something stuck in the treads. Correctly name your product and clean them up please!
hazeleyez809
They should have a free shipping party!!!! But that would be to good to be true!!!! LOL
lizaschemicals
@hazeleyez809 YES @dee7331 YES smart girl!! lol
rebeccarophie
Agreed!! The parties have been switching between the same 3/4 categories! It's really frustrating!! I've written to posh numerous times about this asking for more of a variety of brands and themes and gave them multiple suggestions. Of course I never heard back and haven't see any change! Maybe if enough people show concern they will take it into consideration!!
bang_on_buck
I still love these brands but I hope they come i up with free shipping as a promo since they take 20% anyway..
chuchala99
When I first started on poshmark the 1st party of the day had included brands like: express, the limited and Victoria secrets. Even though an item is less from limited brands if a customer bundled items poshmark would be making their 20% we would be making 80% and clearing our closets out which was the idea for posh=shop(backwards) and we would be seeing different items showcased daily.
scgarcia
Yes. I'm tired of it
oneluckyb
That's cause now you can get those brands just about anywhere! :(
healthfreakgirl
Free shipping party is a great idea
mandymerico
So agree! I suggested DVF a bunch of times and I was so sad to see it smooshed in with the same old, same olds! Didn't we used to have Calvin Klein, banana republic, Gap, denim...the list goes on! Now it is the same parties every week!
monica0411
AGREE 100 plus%!!!! Same parties, every other day!! What happened to regular, affordable, every day brands!!??? But oh well..
tammysbeachwear
Would like to see a beachwear party:)
abfab
Agreed!! There are soooooo many other brands people are on here to buy!!
abfab
@jodyleehall I agree more LAMB!!!
maritza13
I agree with a Free Shipping Day Party for each category at least once a month. Poshmark will make a lot of money and people wouldn't need to use Paypal.
kaythompson07
I wish there was more miss me!
6420stacey
I'd like to see Lily Pulitzer, Rachel Roy, LAMB, Vintage... How about "A Day at the Ranch"
Party or a "Skulls, Studs, and Crosses" Party. Probably fewer listings, but it might be fun to have some offbeat parties and see some different items. I'm pretty over PM at this point! BORING!!!😴😴💤💤💤💤
lucidretro
@stylingwithme omg. I like your comment. I think it's a little tacky to be begging. When u see these 🙏 with a sob story.
ashley_coleman
Go away, the hosts work hard on these and btw the don't get to pick what the party is... The company does.
dee7331
@ashley_coleman nobody said anything about the hosts sweetheart. We know it's a poshmark thing, not a host thing.. There is no mention of hosts in this post..read carefully
whitney71862
My BIGGEST pet peeve with Posh besides the 20%, crappy parties & lack of good inventory.. people trying to beat you up on price for a $5 tee shirt...I feel like I price my stuff accordingly. I know my stuff isn't worth full price or even half of what I paid for it.. People need to understand this concept. Just because you paid $50 for a shirt 2 years ago doesn't mean tis worth $30. USED IS USED!!! Doesn't matter the designer.
hollisjean
Good point. There are so many other designers out there!!
tankar
I'm VERY bored with the Ground Hog Day Parties! Wouldn't it be great if "they" threw a "Featured" Party showing pieces from an Up & Coming designer who has impressed them? Something innovative instead of "recycled".
tankar
Huge PET PEEVE!! Saying its Vera Wang when it's Vera Wang from KOHLS!!! Be upfront!! Does anyone get help if they report a damaged item? Received a bag broken & have not heard a word from Posh. Lady took the $$ & ran. Isn't that what we pay the 20% for?
lottenotte
I love Michael Kors just as much as the next person as well as Coach... The majority of my closet are new items from both of these designers BUT I too am a bit bored by the same ol same ol. I like most of the hosts but i think the shameless self promotion instead of actual poshers items is getting old too. Then to see the hosts are taking paypal too makes me feel a bit used and left out since my 20% is going to keep poshmark alive. I also think more advertising needs to be done for PM because the sales have really been down lately... This coming from some of my pm pals who have been having gangbuster sales all along. I agree i would like to see a variety of parties and i have mentioned it over and over to no avail... I wanted to do a jeans and jewelry, beachwear, summer sundays, black & white party, all 80's, ... You get the idea... A Victoria's Secret party alone would do wonders as i have a ton of that too and i agree, 10% of the population wears LV and Chanel but the other 90% wears everyday brands! Selling more at a lower price point is sometimes better then a few items at the high end. I am getting tired of seeing yard sale items too.... I thought this was fashion!?!? Having a highlihted guest designer that is up and coming would rock and i am betting as the PM community we could get them off to a great start and give incredible feedback! I too have seen items online that were incorrect in listings by designers, inspired, and so forth and would love to see more Posh Police looking out for the buyers! I have heard the horror stories of quite a few. I know Manish and his team are working hard at making posh better and better but i wish i felt like we were heard more!! When i first started you coukd tag manish and he would respond but i have not seen that in awhile... I am sure he is very busy as the rest of the team but i have heard nothing but complaints lately and not many solutions..... I have a listing on my site for Poshmark Suggestions and i would love for everybody to post suggestions there and maybe we can then contact manish with our ideas.... I think that is the best way to go about this. I hate to see people leaving and getting fed up or bored brcause i have really enjoyed this app and i love getting to know the great people on here..(well, most of the,...) lol! As well as cleaining out my closet, selling my great finds, and finding some cool things! Xoxo kim
poshersince2012
I wish they didn't always promote brands I could easily get at the local mall. I'd be way more interested in the parties if they included contemporary brands like Helmut Lang and rag&bone.
mheinsite57
Soooooo true! There are a million other brands out there!!!
nilsashah
Agreed!
lherron042190
I agree! I won't even look through those parties anymore.
bre19
I agree we need more variety.. How about a priced under $50 party, add new designers.. White House black market, NWT party.. Come on Posh keep it fresh... I keep my prices fair and when people stop buying people stop using. I love this community we need to keep it strong!!!
lilygtr
I'm actually tired of this, the crazy fees and the things that people sell. Like for example they put up many listings of the same clothes. Like I doubt you're cleaning out 20 dresses that are exactly the same. Like they treat as a business instead of selling out of their closet so it starts to become boring with that over time!
loriann
How about the super tight slutty dresses and pages of the same dress/shirts etc. Also the 20% they take is ridiculous along with the lowball offers. Very hard to make anything on here.
soworld
@dee7331 hey why don't we give our own party. Featuring of brands only or whatever designer that is not being represented in these parties
rianaw
Agree more variation not the same everyweek so boring
live4style
How about BCBG MAXAZRIA
Shoes, Clothing, Bags. Come check out my closet in couple of days I'm putting a collection together as we speak
microset
@dee7331 I strongly agree with you. I did a party already .a trial one. And I'd be honest every one sold a bunch of stuff. Not a garage party. Like a classy party. Same as posh more or less. Every other designer you can't imagine that there is you get to know the product better. Vintage, handcraft, lamb and the prices are very affordable. David yurman design which are very expensive have 2 competitor that has design is exquisite which is far cheaper and durable than his product. Not demoting his product ok. But most of us can't afford 1200 bracelet price. We will have another trial run July in Chicago . And we encourage them to bring dif brands. Hope I gave you an idea. The good thing is every one get to experience hosting and generate money and learn fashion at a cheaper price.👍👍👍
amyfnolan
I think people should look more closely and do more research on the things they are buying. Like alot of these handbags are outlet bags being sold for well over there retail price. Doesn't it get you wondering how some people have so many coach and micheal Kors items. OUTLET. Also I'm tired of seeing the same damn jewelry. Everytime I look I see the same leather bracelets, the same cross bracelets, those feather earrings. Again do research, there on posh for $18 and you can buy online for about $2. I sell only things from my closet I don't buy online in bundles and sell and posh for a trillion dollars. AND TO MANY INSPIRED ITEMS. Just getting BORED now with this😢 had to put in my 2 cents.
revolvestylist
@dee7331 I really like this idea, but forgive my ignorance, how do we do it? Could you tell us how this is done on PM? Also, I have less than 15 items in my closet and they are all high quality brands, never used or used just a few times. I am appalled at the beat up items for sale here. I'd be embarrassed to offer such items for sale. I consider this the highest quality consignment shop and I am doing my part to keep it that way.
dee7331
@revolvestylist I think the best thing we can do is constantly email them, ask for new brands in posh parties, and ask them to focus on weening out the frauds and fakes..I try to email them about once a week..if a lot of us do it, it should make a difference !
revolvestylist
@dee7331 Good advice. Now to spread the word.
andloshet
I 100% agree!!! What has posh become?? I honestly just want to close my closet and wipe my hands of the whole thing because of how ridiculous things have gotten: terrible customer service (they are dealing with our money but yet there is no phone number to call to get transactions worked out like Paypal and they take WEEKS to respond to emails), boring parties, people selling their ratty crap as "excellent used condition" when it should be in the dollar bin at a yard sale and people not reading listings, low balling and asking to trade when you clearly state all over your closet that you don't. This app is not classy anymore. People are rude and scamming left and right. Plus sales have been so slow. For 2 straight weeks I was making so many trips to the PO with 10-15 deliveries at a time, now nothing! People aren't listing or buying it seems. Idk, I wish posh wasn't like this because it is a great opportunity to buy and sell and the app makes it super easy and way faster than eBay or Craigslist but still, the legit buyers and sellers are def starting to go elsewhere and all that is going to be left in the long run are scammers and the 😭🙏 sob story buyers that can't pay rent yet are trying to low ball buy your designer bag. I know the economy is crappy and jobs are scarce but if you can't pay your bills maybe buying clothes and bags you don't need isn't a good idea. And it's not my job to be goodwill to all these women! Grr! It's so frustrating.
andloshet
@amyfnolan I totally agree with you! Research is so important when buying on here! I go to the outlets outside of Boston all the time and get new items for cheaper than ppl on here are selling. A lot of ppl have turned it into a business but we end up paying like 40% more because of their markup from outlet pricing and the 20% markup they add to cover the posh fees. I've seen a bunch of ppl selling their used TB mini Ella snakeskin totes for $200-$300 (the bag originally cost $195 for mini) and yet I went to the TB store here at the Prudential Center 2 days ago and bought it on sale for $97!
stacyb84
@maribizel03 I think everyone is tired of the high % cut and the high shipping no one really wants to deal with it anymore..incl me..amen new parties and read @excreations post suggestin changes to be made to the site
chloelove11
I'm new to site and I'm wondering who are the people who decide on the parties?? Why can't others come up with part ideas??
janealamode
@dee7331 I am beginning to think this is a waste of time and energy. It great if you want to give your things away! List a fair price and offers are half. Think there are way more sellers then buyers?? And a LOT of junk !! Thinking it my be better and easier to donate.
stacyb84
@revolvestylist amen, I too felt embarrassed when I saw some of the things ppl were trying to sell on here, I feel sad for anyone who would back so much for something that's designer and severely beat up, I saw some Prada slides (rubber sole) that were clearly very worn, and then saw some one paid 175 for them, I was shocked! & your closet is great btw! :)
imkrex
I'd also like to point out that this is not a garage sale, it is a site to sell FASHIONABLE items, I don't want to see baby clothes, or electronics, or arts and crafts materials in an ACCESSORIES party, if you want to sell your children's clothing or your electronics do it somewhere else please. Some of us mark our closets way down just to clear it out, and then people STILL feel the need to ask for the price to be lowered even more when it's already cheap! My ENTIRE CLOSET is 50% off cause I need this stuff gone, and I'm still dealing with this, it's getting ridiculous here, and yes I agree sales are crazy slow, I haven't sold or moved anything in almost 2 weeks, and when I first got on posh I was at the post office like twice a week at least. :( things need to change.
pookiebeau
@imkrex Same here, when I first started on posh I was making sales every day or every other day. Now I'm lucky if I make a sale a month! I also tried to be proactive in informing people that this was a place for women's fashion and accessories only and I got such a backlash from people that I removed my listing and gave up even trying. Posh obviously doesn't care since reporting people seems to have no effect and they keep making people hosts or hosts picks and they have items in their closet not allowed to be sold or doing pp transactions. I need to find some place or app new that can give me the experiences I had back when I first started on here. I'm just a sahm tryin to help out my family and posh isn't working for me anymore.
msupgrade
msupgrade love those brands but would also love to see Jessica Simpson, Betsey Johnson, Manolo Blanik, Steve Madden. Change it up a bit.
pookiebeau
Honestly we need to bombard them on their fb page and maybe they'll listen if more people speak out. Only a few of us voice out opinions to them and they just brush us off. Strength in numbers!
dee7331
@pookiebeau I agree!!! I didn't realize they ha a Facebook page..I will go to it now
imkrex
@pookiebeau I know like it's not even about the money with me at this point, like I just want my stuff gone, but I don't want to deal with scammers, or any other drama over mere items.I'm probably going to go back to taking my items in to Crossroads Trading Co. or Plato's Closet I still make decent money from those places and don't have to deal with this nonsense anymore. definitely check those paces out if you are looking for an alternative to sell your items :)
pookiebeau
@dee7331 Yes! Most people don't know and I think they need to! I always post problems I have with posting, btw I couldn't even post my mk bag to the party cause it said it didn't fit the party guidelines, it was an mk bag!!!
pookiebeau
@imkrex I know how you feel, I just hate lowering my prices to its lowest and stating that on the listing and I still get people asking if I can go lower or even half of the price!
imkrex
@pookiebeau OMG I COULDN'T POST MY MK TODAY EITHER -_-
pookiebeau
@imkrex Another lady posted on their fb page that she couldn't either...so I posted also about me having the same problem. You should too! People keep emailing pm about their issues, but that stays private, if you post on a public forum like their fb page for others to see maybe then they'll actually listen. We need to get this going and force them to be accountable and make the changes we want. I'm tired of this place being run horribly.
reinharj
You can always try thredUP.com
katiecolby
I was just about to suggest ThredUp. I got 2 sweaters from them last week (1 gap and 1 loft) and paid under $5 including shipping. Promo code TAKE30 also gets you 30% off your first order! You can "order" a box to sell your stuff too. They send you the box and shipping label free, go through what you send and pay you one flat rate for anything they decide to keep and sell. For what they don't try to sell, you can either give them permission to donate the items or they will send them back to you! Just waiting for my box to arrive to send them stuff!
nineve
Thank you!!!!!! SERIOUSLY!?!?? What is that all about!?!? Shy do they keep doing that?????
larksandlace
I'm not alone, yaaaay!! What is going on?!?! I think that sellers pitching the same dresses in all sizes are flooding the 'market'. Obviously they are cheaply made abroad (don't get me started on all that), but isn't the point of posh to clear out your closet and find something you are excited about in somebody else's? I have really nice items but get these girls making straight up silly offers!! I used to frown at re-selling make-up for example, but now these lower price point items are the only things that move :( Went from 3-4 trips to the post office/day to nada. I get tons of likes daily, but nobody is buying. I'm moving soon and at this rate I'd rather donate...
pookiebeau
I honestly thought I was the only one noticing a decline in sales, posh changing the shipping pricing and weight didn't help, their over advertising on social gaming brought in a crowd of scammers, young kids/teens, and people who just have no manners or intentions to buy. This place use to have a community feel to it and everyone had respect for one another. Now it's like they got greedy once the cash began to flow in and they don't even try to respond to emails within the time frame of 24-48 hrs or even put effort into party themes. They use to have like stripes and stars, studs and spikes. Just different themes! You'd think they'd put more time and effort into something that is nothing without us and our sales. I'm surprised they haven't noticed the decline in their percentage coming in since a lot of us aren't making as much money as before.
joannbrown1964
Your closet has MK and Tory Burch. I don't understand your point.
dee7331
@joannbrown1964 actually I don't have either brand..but if I did, id still be posting this..I have Gucci and Tiffany's and those brands are constantly in posh parties and I'm sick of them too!!
kathymac22
@dee7331 Thank you so much for giving us a place to "vent"! I agree that PM is not very helpful with problems or grievances. I recently sold one of my Coach bags and I mailed it out the next day. I had absolutely no correspondence with the buyer, which I know now should be a red flag! As soon as they purchased, I sent them a thank you message and received no response. That really wasn't the issue though.... A few days later I got the msg that the bag had been delivered. I waited the required 3 days for the purchaser to accept the bag and subsequently release my funds. On the fourth day, I sent a super nice msg to the buyer asking if they had received the bag and were they satisfied. Still no response....I went to the purchasers closet, and miraculously, the closet was now empty! I contacted PM and they emailed me a generic letter stating that I should wait 3 days after the purchase to start any action against the buyer. Um......this was on day 5 post sale!!! Finally, on day 9 post sale PM sends me an email saying "Whoo! The purchaser has accepted your item and your funds are in your account." Wow PM...thanks for all the hardwork! I think it's really awful for these people, along with the scammers, garage sale sellers, and sellers who use PM for a retail shop of crappy fake designer items, to be allowed to continue what they are doing! And while I'm on a rant.....if my closet says "no trades and no PP" stop asking about it! My closet has only things from my personal closets at home and it's my prerogative if I decline a low-ball offer, don't harass me if I won't accept the rediculous offer! Ok, I'm done!! Thanks again for the opportunity to vent! 💕
joannbrown1964
I see.. It's time for a change.
meruby
I was just think this the other day. The challenge I run into is people don't buy other brands, we all want to sell it but no one wants to buy it :) TB sells like hotcakes! Banana Republic is pennies on the dollar compared to JCrew bc the outlet is so cheap. Marc Jacobs is too expensive. Vintage doesnt always have a brand name so people dont buy it. Anyone else see similar things?!
courttt12
I agree with this. But I also think it's funny how people try and charge retail for their item!! If u go into any store no matter if its brand new or used for a year they will only sell it for about half. Like the show Resale Royalty, they give people 1/3 of the price then sell the items for half the retail price. So poshers please stop trying to charge retail for ur MK, Coach, LV, ect. bags!!!
mollydolly
@manish !!!!!!!
crmnrcks
yeah, they need 2 mix it up a little more...
pookiebeau
@mollydolly I wish just tagging them would actually force them to read these listings of our grievances. Posting on their fb page might help a bit more.
pookiebeau
Anyone else noticed the new annoying trend of people posting their items to parties that sold prior to the party, like even months ago! Why???
fieldtripper
How about an under $5 party? $10 and under? :)
crmnrcks
@msupgrade 😉
mollydolly
@pookiebeau eh, tried that numerous times, theyll never listen
vetementsamore
@pookiebeau i think sales r declining bc its hard to sift through all the garbage and "store" closets have entered into the competition with us regular people =( also, summer time is generally slower for the entire fashion industry. ppl would rather spend their $ on their vacations etc. also, another reason for declining sales might b that all your good stuff alrdy sold like hot cakes! =) which is awesome bc i've only made 1 sale so far lolssss
jessmait87
What about Express, H&M, Guess parties? And it does seem to be the same party every other day. I love this and have sold a lot of my stuff but more variety is needed.
pookiebeau
@vetementsamore Yeah, I was just thinkin it was just me and my closet having sale issues, but I've come across so many people with the same problem. So I don't feel alone or like I was just doing something wrong and losing sales. Thanks!
vetementsamore
@pookiebeau 😄😄😄😄😄
katemerick
I can't stand those parties filling up my news feed and its the same parties every week! And as long as I'm commenting on this a party thing. What kind of party has 14,000 items in it. Stupidest thing I've ever seen, if they just had a couple hundred items in a party people might actually scroll through them. Lets see 3 parties a day with 14,000 items each = 6 hours to go thru. Never going to happen!! Or about 200 or so for 3 parties a day = 15-20 mins and I believe more sales and if you have these everyday and have 14,000-16,000 items and split up into small amts we wouldn't keep seeing the same things every time. Am I the only one that has thought about this??
katemerick
I also want to comment as a buyer and not a seller that I see a lot of you complain about people using PayPal and here is the reason I like to pay thru PayPal! I'm sure some of you know but not all of you that PayPal has what's called bill me later so I can buy and buy and not need to pay until bill comes in mail and its just like a credit card you have min pmt or can pay what you want. So yeah I can buy a few handbags and have months to pay for them! Why wouldn't you prefer that since it means I can by more of all of your things. Don't get me wrong I have bought from poshers who don't accept PayPal but when I buy something for 20.00 I don't want to pay 27.00 so a lot of times I just don't buy it!
dee7331
@katemerick agreed!!! And I offer free shipping with pay pal!!
pookiebeau
@katemerick @dee7331 I have nothing against using PayPal myself other than the fact that its not allowed. This is the only reason why I don't offer this option myself. I've known several sellers who's pm account got "banned" due to them doing pp transactions and I'm not willing to risk losing my account and my sales history or followers. But I do see why so many rather go thru pp than pm.
peppergirlfinds
GOSH TRUE DAT!!!Love your closet !! I am having 50% off EVERYTHING WHEN YOU BUNDLE TODAY. I have brand new items. Including betsey Johnson 🌹🌸💐
sarajane
I totally agree. Some of the parties are too vague resulting in too many listings. I don't know about you guys but I don't have time to look at all the party listings. Especially if there are 15k+ listings if mostly crap. I'd like to see more parties of smaller size. Like "just sandals" or "tanks" I really like the idea of "under $10". It would be a dream cone true for a free shipping day!! They can afford it 😃
lifeinstiches
Agreed
lifeinstiches
They should have a whatever brand parties also

@classicvintage I LOVELOVELOVE your idea of a "red party" (color themed)!! Really, I'm just reading and posting here because its 'crickets' up in my closet, nothing is moving, and I miss the days of mucho action/sales in my newsfeed :( . I think posh is officially over-saturated with sellers vs. buyers. THIS close to retiring, such a bummer...
crmnrcks
my fave today was not being allowed to share my Diane von Furstenburg heels...when it said DVF!!!
mollydolly
@specialk104 ^^^ loss of packages happened to me numerous times as well.
nanmcbrayer
Yes! And inflated prices on these items that can be found at Nordstrom Rack and on sale for much less.
chriswalling
And Tiffany and Company!

I know quite a few Poshers who closed their closets because they don't have those brands and it was a waste of time when they could never feature their items. And they weren't trashy brands...what happened to Free People, Anthro, White House Black Market? @katef we've asked poshmark support a million times...and no one ever answers. The fad is going to run it's course if Posh doesn't become more open and less brand specific. Sad really.
jaspar21
@specialk104 thank you! I stopped even looking at those parties...it's just a repeat performance. I spend more time in my feed now but it's getting old.
fashionaddict69
Yes!! Thank you for speaking up. Few more brand of jeans would be nice too!!!
twink123
Thanks for posting this! I have increasing concerns with Posh. The etiquette is very bad. The parties are boring. I want to see new items and I want to find deals. I don't mind used items, but people do not price accordingly. Even if it has the tags on ITS NOT NEW it's been at your house. Asking retail or more is wrong. I always research item and ask questions. Also all these scams rampant on this site. I follow all poshes rules and still got scammed by a BUYER. Ordered a pair of jeans from me reported them not as described, ripped the tags out of them, and posh accepted the return, I never got my jeans back or the money it's been a month and I'm not getting a clear response from posh. Seems like form email responses no specifics. :(

@katemerick I saw your comment about PayPal and thought I'd throw in my two cents. Let me begin by saying, I am in no way attempting to start an argument or disrespect you in anyway. Just giving my opinion. From a sellers standpoint, we would be able to give lower prices to people through PP. My problem with that is its against the rules of PM. While I agree that PM's fee to the seller and shipping for the buyer are quite steep, it's only fair for them to take a %. They are allowing us to post and sell our items on their app. We also use them for advertising our items. Therefore, I feel it's terribly unfair for everyone to utilize their services, then cut them out at the last second and use PayPal. Ultimately PM is a business, and as most businesses do, they are just trying to make a little $ for the services they provide us. 😊

I would never ever buy anything high brand like purses, wallets or so called Mac products via these types of sites. Ladies no one gives away a deal on big names like they are trying on here. If you purchase make sure you get a store receipt or accept its fake. Check ebay for the jewelry you see here and you'll see it there. Chanel jewelry is big money so don't be duped. I do like this site and feel bad for the sellers getting window shopped by fake offers then left hanging.
kathymac22
@brockbaylee Hi! Thanks for sharing the same opinion as me! I was sure I would be crucified by leaving my earlier comment, but I stand firmly behind it. Nothing is free and PM is attempting to make money just like the rest of us. Just the other day I wanted to purchase an item and was chatting with the seller about the price. We agreed on a price, and that I would purchase immediately (I hate when people beg me to hold stuff then they disappear when it's time to buy!). Would you believe that she REFUSED to honor the quote she had given me because I wouldn't pay thru PP. She actually asked me if I didn't use PP because I lived in the south and "maybe we don't have PP down here." I was like what?!? I live in New Orleans, which contrary to popular belief, has electricity and running water!! So, no, that's not why I don't use PP. I don't use it because the rules say don't. I reported her butt and, needless to say, refused to purchase her item! Ugh....some people!!
katemerick
@kathymac22 I totally understand what your saying no arguments here, just all of our opinions! Thanks
splendeur
Ditto to that!!!
gymjanice
There are TONS of parties where you can post just about anything in your closet at the same time. No complaints here 😊
katemerick
Another pet peeve is all these redundant parties filling up my newsfeed and you can't delete anything from your newsfeed! Why can't we delete things on here? Does anyone know?
louisejanet
I'm not impressed with PM. I've bought a couple of things but I've taken down my items. I can sell them on ebay. It takes forever on this site to find things. It's either way expensive or quite used and over priced. Plus people don't explain their items. Brand and issues, or worn a few times would be helpful to know. Ughhhh
levernisnoir
I would like to see some different brands as well, seems like these are all geared to those with a preppy classic style. I'm not into Tory Burch, Coach, Kate Spade, or Michael Kors. How about some brands that cater to those with a more glam, sexier style? Bebe, Herve Leger, BCBG, etc?
sarkid
I'm new to Posh and I just buy not sell. I have met some wonderful sellers who are honest and caring and go the the extra mile to make purchasing a fun
and satisfying experience. On the other hand others have called me out for asking too many questions to authenticate an item. I do my research. I have been scammed once getting stuck with plastic rather than the promised leather.
Seller response was "gee I didn't know" and Posh offering me $10 to just suck it up and keep the merchandise. Although I'm new, I think if everyone played by the rules and Posh enforced them it would make me shop here more. I hate to have to worry if I'm being scammed every time I go to make a purchase. For what it's worth that's my two cents.
colette123
I'm cool with most of the brands on PM, it's just the scammers that really suck the life and fun out of this site. So many people have gotten burned one way or another. And what about PayPal, that one takes the cake. Just sell your stuff on eBay and let the ones that follow the rules sell on here. Just putting in my two cents, thanks :)
jennamarie2010
@itsleana lol, my BFF and I were just talking about that! I saw a dress on here from Forever 21 and they said it used to be like, $50, I was like, pleasee, even the super nice fancier dresses there are only MAYBEEE $30!
mallieharris
BRANDY MELVILLE PARTY!!!
pookeysmom
Oh yeah, a vintage party would be awesome - I love vintage!
christinet
Yes! So sick of it that I sent in a formal complaint months ago. Looks like it didn't work!
drsnortz
Yes I'm tired of the same brands too
kgltap
Different thought here.. No one mentioned the data analytics that Poshmark can do on their "inventory". I suspect the reason that Poshmark is continually doing the "same" parties over and over again is because if you were to search all items by brand, those items are clearly in the majority. Hence, from Poshmark's point of view, getting those items the most visibility creates a mass supply of potential buyers since there are a lot of options, thus creating a larger amount of "Poshmark dollars" floating around the app. I agree that the parties are trite at this point but their thinking is probably lower inventory in othe brands don't create as much impulse to buy. They can see how many shoes are out there (probably a ton) versus how many pairs of denim. Coach outranks LAMB by oodles in terms of count of product. Why wouldn't Poshmark want to have these parties over and over again? Just thinking from their side.
kgltap
Not too mention, search results/analtics. Poshmark probably has reports on what people are searching for more than anything else and I'll bet you money that those typical parties show up a lot more than the other brands that you don't see.
skyeyas
Lol. That's funny that ur post is the first one on the listings. Good timing! Parties are so predictable, I already know when coach, handbags parties. . . Happen
janegotflava
I'm sick of looking at the same postings people are selling day after day in these parties! Don't they have other things to sell?! Geez!! Get rid of it some other way, if it doesn't sell.
tutuohtoo
I agree about the same parties everyday. I like the ideas of a VS, BCBG, Banana Republic, Express, Limited, GAP, etc. The color themed party idea is great as well. I don't understand why Paypal cannot be used. It is used on Threadflip and they collect their 20%, offer to let you ship on your own by purchasing your own label which allows free shipping to the buyer or the buyer can pay for shipping. The seller sets everything up when they do the listing. I don't think the site is as user friendly as PM but some things I guess you have to sacrifice. I loved the people I met here when I first started but now so many people want holds, trades or just lowball offers it is ridiculous. It used to be a much better site than it is now. People are buying multiple items and selling them here just as they do on Ebay. It is hard for those of us just clearing our closets to compete with that type of seller. I wish I could find another site that was similar but more in line with what everyone is discussing in this post. If any of you ladies decide to pursue that please tag me and I will definitely take my closet with you :-)
crmnrcks
fyi - just saw mk bags & clothes @ ross & marshalls. just sayin.....
pookiebeau
Ughhh I hate that so many women on here have items up that aren't for sale. Showing off what you can afford is not what I care to see. Also people selling fakes and just simply not following the rules around here is what gets me. And the fact that these people get so defensive when you tell them. It's the rules so just follow them!
jamiemack
Yes! PM is a closet pimp.. Taking 20%? Get outta here with that!
jamiemack
I haven't been here that long so quick question... Why do people take significantly less for an item if paid through PP? Just wondering.
dee7331
@jamiemack because poshmark takes 20 percent of your sales..
jamiemack
Oh duh! Ha, I feel like a jackass now. But you can still get a label from posh to save money on shipping and do payment through PP right? I see people doing that.
dee7331
@jamiemack nah, if you do pay pal you can't get a free shipping label..but most people who go thru pay pal, don't charge shipping for the customer...
jejaghab
I don't understand "Host Pick" posh made over 1000 from me!!!!!!!!! And I joined every party...don't make sense.
dee7331
@katef @tracy @maria @fashionableme
pookiebeau
@jejaghab Host picks are items that the chosen "hosts" share to the parties. You have your regular hosts of people from poshmark, but there's different co hosts that are regular poshers who get picked to host a party along with the pm people. Getting your items to be chosen is all about being more interactive with the posh community, sharing other members items, having great cover shots and whatnot. I've been on pm for well over a year and just got made a suggested user! Took a while and I'm just getting in the know of things. I hope to someday also host a party! Hope this helps explain it!
michellelee5413
I agree. Everything is so expensive! I mean it's used people not new.
philliesphan
They promote what sells. It makes for good business and nice profits for everyone!
tee6922
And everybody thinks their item is "vintage". Old navy, guess and the like are NOT vintage. 😠
corinneflynn
Well what do you want to see?
dee7331
@corinneflynn lamb, jimmy Choo, true religion, dolce vita, d&g, Swarvoski etc!!!
kellz
I just read the 1st few comments and have to jump in. I totally agree w/ how aggravating it is to see ppl trying to sell stuff with their pitty stories. Omg u look so desperate it's sad. Not only do I see some ladies begging for ppl to shop their closets due to some hardship but I also see the same ones trying to cut deals on really expensive items to buy. So which is it, do u need $$ cuz ur broke or to buy more stuff?? Ughh pisses me off. Everyone has their own problems, figure ur own sh*t out plz.. Phewww in done 😁
supermom13
👍👍👍
cindy59
I just can't figure why nothing ever sells. There must be a trick that I don't know about.
erinmurphy
@dee7331 my main issue is the low balling that goes on. I actually had an offer for 20$ on a 600$ dress!!! Also, I gave away a kate spade bag to a military wife and now get sob stories asking for a deal. I had hoped this site would be a little classier.
mallieharris
YES!!!! Brandy melville party
nanmcbrayer
While I have enjoyed this site, I continually find unrealistic prices ( check eBay and you will probably find it cheaper.) Photos of obviously shrunken and wrinkled clothing😁.
And worst of all so many "inspired" items, sold as authentic. Buyer beware!
kassafrassx
I just shared this to my followers so that maybe more people will mention to posh! I also wanted to say that I hope it doesn't bother people that I have a post asking people to help me out by buying/sharing my items. I wouldn't call my story any kind of sob story and I'd never ask for any kind of handout, I'm just trying to sell my things to get some money to buy school books that way it doesn't have to allllll come from what I consider to be my "fun money." If you think I should take it down and I look like I'm begging/look classless please let me know cus that's not my intent (:
dee7331
@kassafrassx nope!!! Keep it up!!!
jmealey10
Check out threadflip. There's an app for it. Much more of a selection! :)
gabbygirl46
@dee7331 Yes x infinity! I am Completely DONE with M. Kors. I never even cared for his style of bags anyway. And runway?? Please! Give me Versace! Valentino! Zac P! Anything but Tory Burch and Kors! Sorry ladies, but I am totally with you!
