Clean out and share your "Likes" list at least once a month. What I mean by that is, go and look through your "Likes" list and unlike the items that have been sold. Then as you're going through your "Likes" decide if you still like it. If not then first share the item and then unlike it. This way your "Likes" won't be all cluttered. Keep it clean just as you would keep your closet clean. ALSO, while you are going through all your likes, why don't you share them all? Unless you are like me and don't want someone buying it before I can get it myself.

(The No Longer Posher's)
In your closet at the top right it says how many people you are Following. Click or tap that and you will see a list of everyone you are following. Now for some of you that's thousands. At the top of the list are ( the floaters- you know when a fish dies it just floats at the top ) well at the top of the list you'll find all those Posher's who have quit, closed their closet or have been kicked out. You can quickly and easily click the Following button to the right of their name to unfollow them. I've done this every two months & it's amazing how many people I clear out.
jewelry_party
My best tip is to go to your search and look for the the like,follow,share games. I'm in about 50 of them and I just share each post each day and I'm bringing in around 30 to 50 more followers everyday cause of doing that. It really helps! But you have to share each game at least once everyday for it to work. I tried just leaving it for a couple of days and I found I only had like 5 followers a day. It's practically 1 follow every time you share a game. And each follow could result in a sale!
jewelry_party
DON'T unfollow and then refollow a person. Its rude. If you want them to notice you or get some shares from them, then do the right thing in the first place and share some of their items. They should in return share yours.
chuchala99
Awesome tips. Can anyone add a tip or are they just yours that you have found worked. I don't want to intrude💋😘
lovecolor7
I think the second tip is inaccurate. The people at the top are very much active, the people at the very bottom may not be but you have to check. I looked just now and the last 2 were no longer active , NOT the top people.
jewelry_party
@chuchala99 anyone can.
jewelry_party
@lovecolor7 sorry about that I've always checked them and they've always been dead profiles.
lovecolor7
Maybe mine is weird😻
chuchala99
Thank you, start adding your new listings on Monday. Shoppers start to look and will decide by their payday.

@gauthreaux105 Hi, sorry about that. Go to your feed page, at the topic it there should be likes, feed, search. Go to search and in the search bar type in follower games. About 100 should pop up.
jenie73
My like list is starting to get long. I have began liking sellers info instead of items because on my last purchase I was burned. Posh gave me my money back which I was happy about. The seller just relisted the item so it's likely the next person will be stuck with it.. She took a picture if a quality item and what I got was a bad quality item that was not the bag in the picture. So now I am more careful. I was lucky that all of my purchases before that where from honest people. So I look to see if the seller has shared any info about themselves and if I like it I heart it so I can shop from those closets. I try to weed out closets that don't appear to be people's actual closets but rather stuff you could get at the swap meet. Which is what happened to me in this case. I am trying to find a way to store my favorite stores and the like area is the only way I figured out where to put them so far.
jewelry_party
Hi @jenie73 yeah all the likes go in one spot, I wish we had "like" folders. One for our fave closets one for our purses etc... I know about getting burned, I purchased a water globe in here ( before I knew any better ) it arrived saying that I owed $18 to pick it up and THEN I FIND IT SHATTERED!!! Posh refunded me and I blocked her immediately. I find that if your profile pic literally looks like a mugshot, stay away. No lie I've found several mugshot profiles that are complete scammers. And now you have to be careful not to post the scammers name, cuz they whine and report to posh that you're lying and posh removes your listing. So watch out.
jewelry_party
@hrhjenni Hi, thanks, I've been wanting to do this for awhile but I thought I'd better learn more before trying to help others. Lol I'm still going to others for help.
jenie73
@mistyheart Sorry to hear that happened to you ... I am getting it. My scammers name had something to do with being the best seller ever!!! I think posh did their job in protecting me but there where hoops to jump threw and if you don't do it in the time limit you lose. Posh however doesn't really do anything to the person this person looked like she gets lots of sales. I always leave good comments on people I purchase from. This person had so many listings it was impossible to really find out. Some sort of rating system would be good.
jewelry_party
@jenie73 agreed, but in the top right of anyone's closet you can report them to posh. Either the certain item or their whole closet. Also if they are really bad contact customer support, the email address is in your account page and you can tell them there and ask that they take care of it.
jenie73
@mistyheart nice to know. I barely got my first sale and have bought much more then I have sold. I am learning the ins and outs.
jewelry_party
@jenie73 ok when I first started out I put just reduced signs on my items, but until you have a large following of people it's best NOT to do that. The reason is you can't bring the price back up. It's better to choose a few items in your closet mark sale and the end date in the tittle like ( SALE 2/23 ) and then make a special listing that says you have a sale going on and when it ends. Make sure all your (Sale Items) are just underneath your Sales Listing. Also a big deal is to edit your sale listings and put the sale price in, so that if I'm shopping in your closet, Ivan just buy it and not have to wait for you to change the price. VERY IMPORTANT before you change the price, write in your description ( WAS $??? ) x amount dollars. I'm telling you this because the first time I set a sale up I didn't do that and then when the sale was over I couldn't remember what some of my prices were. Lol. Also it allows the shopper to see what a great deal $$$ they are getting. But DON'T jack up the original price to make it look better. It's rude and if one person were to catch you it would spread like a wildfire.
jewelry_party
Like follow share games are awesome! I've gotten over 600 followers in 14 hours!!!!
jenie73
@mistyheart I tried a sale in January where I was offering to knock off the cost of shipping on orders $25 or over but no one bit. So now I just say I will negotiate which I know can get sticky because there are people who I have seen in other closets low ball and walk away which is why I liked your tip about that
sixivy
Thanks for this! I'm new and the challenge is getting followers! Great tips!
jewelry_party
Sad to say, but good also is that I just learned its best to follow others Thant to wait for them to follow you. I made it to 3500 followers last night with only 600 I was following. And I've been on here since October of last year. I decided to start following people just last night and now I have 700 more followers in just 17 hours! It's insane! And totally awesome. I did follow 7,000 people last night but hey not everyone logs in everyday. @jenie73 @sixivy
jenie73
Wow! I have 1400 and started in late November early December. I followed the first people and always follow those who follow me. I hate to say it. I think after I reached 1,000 I fell off actively trying to get followers and just get and follow back. Sometimes I am more focused on shopping and should be more focused on selling :-) defiantly working on increasing my followers is a good suggestion... Sometimes I see one pretty picture and then I find myself stuck up in someone's closet!!! So I think pretty pictures are important... On thing I don't like seeing is when people have messed up feet and take pictures of shoes with there feet in them... ;-( if your feet are clean and nice it's cool. But if there all dirty and cracked its a turn off! I have seen a lot of that and don't understand it! Pictures are important! That's my best tip!
jewelry_party
@bear123
jewelry_party
@jenie73 the best way to get follows is to follow first. The best ways to get shares is to go to your feed and share the items in your feed.
jenie73
Lol I know that's a subject no wants to bring up but someone had to say it!
jenie73
@mistyheart I always try to look and share people's items who follow me and if people share mine I always try to share there's extra! Sometimes it gets busy!
jewelry_party
@jenie73 yep that's what I do
jewelry_party
@jenie73 ?what subject?
jenie73
@mistyheart lol what I said about the dirty feet pictures people put up trying to sell shoes. It really turns me off from their whole closet when I see that.
jewelry_party
@jenie73 oh yeah, I've often thought about that. That's why I don't model any clothing because I'm an xxl. I don't like to look at it in the mirror much less pose in front of a camera and make everybody else see it. Lol
jenie73
I know they suggest that items sell better if they are modeled. I have weight to lose to and the items I am letting go of either don't fit anymore or don't look good on me.. Hopefully one day I will be able to get a manikin.
jewelry_party
@jenie73 Same here. You can get them here on posh. But the good ones are like $200 the cheaper half bodies are like $40 I think.
leggn
@mistyheart Great tips💕@lovecolor7 You gals both right, the inactive ones show both at the top and very bottom, the middle part is active lol😊hope it helps
kzack7125
Ladies, thank you so much for these great words of wisdom. I have wanted to be able to "clean out" my feeds for along time now. I even emailed posh asking if I was missing something , someway to do it I hadn't caught on to yet. No response, which I just took to mean that there wasn't a way to do so. It really does get cluttered (w/sold items and items I already purchased a similar version of etc) making the feed a lot less user friendly for its intended purpose. I didn't realize it was as simple as reclicking "like" to unlike & therefore remove it! Omg! Should have known there was a simple answer. Thank you my dear Posh experts, you have truly made a difference! Now if we could just get posh to buy into the filing option it would be even closer to perfect? I totally agree that is a much needed and extremly useful option to add to future software updates! Thanks again! Your the greatest!
jewelry_party
@kzack7125 Hi Kim! Glad to hear you're able to get some control with your likes and all. Also something I learned, if you double tap a pic. In a posting it will automatically like the post. It was a mistake I made, but a lesson learned.
jewelry_party
SHARING YOUR ITEMS FASTER: it takes a while to share everything in your closet, especially when it's over 300 listings. HERE'S A WAY TO SPEED IT UP! Instead of scrolling to the bottom of the page and pressing share. Tap the EDIT button on the top right of a listing, then tap it two more times. It will say EDIT, NEXT & LIST. Three taps and your item is shared! Super easy and has shaved off at least 20 minutes of my share time. Now I have more time to go Poshopping!
lovecolor7
@leggn @mistyheart I see! So the yummy middle of the cake is composed of active poshers, got it 😻

@queengina09 All this info should help you out. If you have any questions, just ask. Oh and don't put sales on any of your items until you have some real followers.

Happy I found this link. Thanks all! How do I share? Where is that area? How do I delete the email messages (not my personal email) the news or messages piling up on my feed. Can I post listings from my iPad, I am buying from it.
jewelry_party
@pcmacsavvy Hi, I'm asking a fellow posher about selling from your I-pad... I do it from my phone. You can't delete messages in you feed. Below the pictures and description of an item but before you read the comments, you'll see 3 buttons( Like. Comment. Share. ) tap on share and it will pull up another screen and ask if you want to share with your followers or to Facebook, twitter.... Only if you connect posh with those accounts.
I will get back to you on the selling from an iPad when I get the answer. But does it say ( feed , sell , parties .... Like that, that you can view and such? I know when I'm on the computer the sell button isn't there. Hmmm? I don't know, I want to know too! I was thinking about getting an iPad.
jewelry_party
@pcmacsavvy Ok yes you can sell on your iPad ! Yeah!
pcmacsavvy
Thanks so much for your efficient help! Yea for me too. I left eBay a while back, scammers cost me a fortune. eBay removes money from PP w/o an ok from the seller. I have a fortune in clothing and accessories. Lost my job and need to thin my shelves. You have been a tremendous help. Cannot wait for daylight to begin.

I thought the "following" people are alphabetical. Not who's more active. Cause at the top of mine it starts with people with ! In front of their name then a' sand b's so on and so forth.
jewelry_party
@kayleemai18 Hi people are finding ways to be noticed. Some do it right and others do it wrong. ! That gets them at the top and if you do a heart from texting you'll be listed under the z's for instance my friend @jblacombe is at the bottom of the list. I don't think she's trying to get the attention though. She just made her closet name cute.
kayleemai18
Oh no I don't have any issue with people doing that. I was just asking cause from your tip you said the people at the top are no longer active, but mine goes alphabetical.

However if you were to do !Janis! you'd be on the top... I often think about doing that lol. I think cause, after a while of following i usually quit around the W's lol I get bored.

Thank-you so VERY much for all these great tips and advice on getting started as well as all the additional info. What I did was take a pic of your list so I can go back and reflect on so much great info, hope you don't mind? Also, I have always thought to ask the person if I could "add/follow" them, I didn't know I could just follow/add them w/o asking, guess it's just me, lol. I will learn this yet! I have to say I have shopped quite a bit in the short time I have been on this site but have been so lucky to get all very nice people that have shipped fast and items as posted. No complaints yet but now I do worry about scammers as stated, is there a way to know? Why can't their name be listed to protect the rest if us? I haven't listed anything as of yet but your information has helped me when I do get ready....give me about 1-2 months then will begin, if not sooner, since I have a lot of extra stuff I no longer need nor wear as us girls more than likely know, lol. Another topic, if anyone needs help with regarding purchasing, etc., on the iPad/tablet I do all the time and find it just as easy. Again, I appreciate the time and info you collected to share with me being a newbie and others. You are such a sweetie! Hope to follow,shop, share,buy, etc., with you in the near future. 😊

marsala
Hi these tips are great! Thank you so much. Maybe you can give me a tip on how to bundle 3 or more items. I just don't get it. What I have been doing is nuts! I retake pictures of the bundled items , put them as added pictures to the original one, and then edit the blurb. It's a pain because if someone changes their mind, then i have to relist each item again! Help! ❤️
jewelry_party
@marsala Hi I go and mark each item as unavailable instead of deleting them. Its the same area where go and delete, you can mark not available. This way if your buyer backs out, you can go to each item and mark it as available. Then I make a separate listing with a pic of them altogether. If you take your pics through a program/app like instacollage, they save all your pics in a gallery. That way later you can re share them to your phones camera roll and put those photos in a bundle listing. I like to make the Covershot of the bundle listing be of all the items together to show the buyer one more time the size difference between each piece she's purchasing.
Also if you have a negotiation page, you can divert all your price adjustments on listings there. That way if a buyer backs out of a deal you were making, another buyer can't swoop in and get that same deal.
marsala
Thank you for your help! It will be so useful! It will cut down a lot of time!thank you so much!

virtualtherapy
Appreciate all of the advice, experiences, tips, suggested do & do nots. I had an incident with a scammer and got turned off. Time is so valuable, but you are reassuring me that their are many more honest Poshers than Scammers. Does anyone do this full time? I would like to be prompt if I set up my closet, but am afraid with my other obligations, I would not be able too. Your thoughts? Your advice does not go unappreciated by me!
jewelry_party
@virtualtherapy Hi Cyndi, I'm not sure if anyone is on here full time. Even katef and manish, two of the cofounders are not here full time. I'm probably here 4-5 hours a day. Only cause I'm addicted and I believe in great customer service. You can place an ad or post in your closet, that says I work between these hours otherwise I can get back to you... Or I check in periodically throughout the day... Only available to answer your questions in the morning... Or at night...
It's good to have the notification banners set up on your phone to respond to a question quickly. However it's still a billion times faster to share your closet or anyone's closet on an iPad or desktop or laptop computers.
Plmk if you have any more questions. I'm always puttering around on here. 😃

@mistyheart - I appreciate the tips! Can you please help a newbie with these questions? 1⃣ Is there a way to track our "shares"? Sometimes I don't remember if I shared first or if I owe the other posher a share! 2⃣ How / with what apps do you add text to your photos and make the text notices you post? Again, thank you!!!
jewelry_party
@klmvirginia Ok. Let's see,
1⃣ You've got the emojii keyboard already.
2⃣ When you are not sure about whether you shared already or not, it's just better to make sure and double share. If you did already, they'll probably share back again.
3⃣ Instacollage is the app I use for all my listings. You can make really neat listings by creating one picture saving it and adding it into the next picture layout.
4⃣ Text on the postings? Do you mean emojii?
5⃣ Descriptions can be made nicer like @ jblacombe by using the "notepad" app. Write your description there and then copy and paste it into your description.

@bethiepooh These are some tips in helping you get your closet up and running. Also try to get your pics in natural sunlight or indirect sun, it takes better pictures. Also try the instacollage app, it really helps with lighting and you can sharpen pictures. Also you can add borders and text. It also has a mirror option, so for example you stand in front of a mirror and model something with writing on it, the app can mirror it back to readable.
bethiepooh
Thank you for the tips. I truely appreciate it. ;)
sassysuzzy
Always love new tips. Thanks! I was wondering about your short cut to sharing by hitting editing. Since u can only edit 3 X doesn't this eliminate your future ability to change?
jewelry_party
I think you are confusing changing the brand name three times. You can edit all you like. Lower price for sales and make the item not for sale.... Like its a Betty johnson oh no its coach or maybe it was a lulu??? You can only change the brand 3 times. @sassysuzzy
sassysuzzy
@mistyheart No I've never changed the Brand Name. It's always the same. I changed price, etc. It only let me 3X
jewelry_party
@sassysuzzy I just checked and it still works. Don't edit anything just try to push edit through and share. Are you on an iPhone ? If yes and it still isn't working, you need to tell posh and they'll fix it for you.

@shophotstyles Good Question! There are two ways I know of. 1. Look to see when the first item in their closet was updated. Some people check in once a day or only 1-2 times a week. However if the update time is old.... 2. Check the comments in like the top 4 listings. They might be chatting in them and if so it will give you the date of the last time they responded. Oh if you're looking to buy something and you have time to waste you can purchase something and if they don't even log in for 10 days and see it the purchase will be cancelled through posh. When you are following a list of people the inactive no longer open closets are at the bottom of the list and you'll see that their names are written in a grey text and active members are in a black text. I hope this helps😃
jewelry_party
@shophotstyles sharing your own closet is a must in making sales. Since your new and have less than 100 followers your best bet would be to share into the parties every night. Also if you follow people you'll get more sales. I have over 150 sales and most of them were bundles, so in all I've sold well over 500 items. And when you follow people they will follow back and for every thousand you follow, you usually get a sale! Or two!😊

Wow @ridinghood13 it's such a contrast from me. lol I had know clue what was going on here. I had unsupported items, I bought unsupported items. In 6 months I was extremely happy with getting my goal of 3,500 followers and had only about 15 sales! Now I know more and have grown over 33,000 followers in the following 6 months. I started modeling for some things. Not comfortable with it though, looking for a mannequin. Following Games got me about 5,000 followers and then I followed all the people who liked the same item I had in another persons closet or like you said similar. It definitely works! Oh and now I just hit over 150 sales. I agree with trying to keep the covershots clean, I see people who have a ton of items scattered about on the covershot and I'm like "What are you selling?" Sometimes when you look at those you'll see the item they're selling isn't even on the covershot or it's there but it's a different color. I have a picture of a purse that shows it off well, but since it's the same make/design but not the same color, I show it in the second pic. It's the crazy and messy pics that make me turn and leave and not even attempt to figure out what they're selling.

Hi! And thank you so much! I've only sold one item but had no problem. But i've bought two, one on Monday and i havent received any info. So i sent seller a reminder and still no word. I'm not sure if i should be worried! Lol

@redanna29 what's her tag name? don't put the @ in front of it, ok? I'll go see if I know her...

jewelry_party
@redanna29 Ok you needn't worry, she is a good seller with some of her items arriving super fast in like 3 days and others taking a week to arrive. Also large city facilities take longer to process than others. Like Texas or New York always take a longer time to process
redanna29
Ok! Thank you so much! I wasn't sure. I've gotten emails on everything but that and i've only been here six days lol! Thank you! Hope i can come back with more questions or just to shop!
redanna29
Hi @mistyheart ! I'm back! Lol Question: How do I bundle? I have someone who wants to purchase multiple items.
jewelry_party
@redanna29 First of all Congrats! That's awesome. Ok so a couple of ways you can do this... 1. Gather all the items she wants and take a pic of them and make a new listing for sale with her name in the title and the combined prices for the sale price. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------2. Use one of your existing listings and update the price bundle in that and tag her on it. --------------------------------------------------------------Either way, make sure you use edit and scroll to the bottom and select not for sale on all the items that you are bundling, except for the bundle itself....
redanna29
Ok @mistyheart I'm gonna give it a try. I'll let you know how it goes.
jewelry_party
@redanna29 cool it looks great. Now don't forget to tag her name in the listing so she can see it.

@mistyheart these are great tips Misty! I really appreciate all the help. A lot of newbies like myself could use all these do's and don'ts right away. 😉
jewelry_party
@savvymediachick A quick tip, before adding a new piece into your closet, first check out what price it's going for on Posh. That will help you sell it. Either you can sell it for more than you thought you could or you could under price the others and hope for a good sell. Also when looking up an item, You'll see the tab "Availability" click on that and choose Sold items. This way you can see exactly what the ending price has been on those that have sold. Good Luck Carmen :)

jennifernora32
Love all your advice. How do I handle a posher that constantly low balls my offers.
jewelry_party
@jennifernora32 Yikes! Two ways to do it. If this posher lowballs and eventually buys from you, then mark your item as price is firm or put a listing up in your closet of what you consider a decent offer and say no lowballing... The other thing is, if this posher hasn't bought from you and is offering you like $5 every item,,, lol I've had those Posher's before. They will never buy from you. As soon as I realize I have one in my closet, I immediately block them. That way they can't like, offer or talk to you, best of all it keeps them from cluttering your listings up with spam and lowball offers of whom others may see.
If you need any other help I'm always around😉😃💋
jennifernora32
🌸💛thanks so much for the advice. You're very sweet and I really appreciate your advice and your time to share it with me. You're awesome 💕🌺
jewelry_party
@jennifernora32 The top 10 or so of your jewelry pictures are really blurry and dark. If you have the ability to take pics in the daylight they would come out a lot clearer. You need indirect sunlight. Which is actually shade, but it's so much better than indoor lights. Try it and see. Also if you have something in nature to use as you background. Like Ive used a bud before it blossomed to hold a ring, or rest it on a rock or a log and for your bigger things like a bracelet you can use the grass or what's working really well for others is taking pics in the snow. So wherever you are there is always a possibility for a great Covershot😉😘

Hi Misty. Ty for all the tips! I decided to do a sale for this weekend and saw where you said i cant put the prices back to the original listing price. I didn't know this! Can i delete the sale item & re-list them at my original price? I only wanted the sale for 2 days to see if I got any offers, so let me know what to do please.
Also, i cleaned & shared my closet & followed all the people in some games and got over 100 followers so far in a few hours 😄 thx much! 💜
jewelry_party
@jennekara Hi yes you can delete and relist the item, however if you have any likes on the item you'll lose them. You can bring the price back up, it just affects the price drop shipping discount, and there are ways around that as well.
jennekara
Ok. I will see what happens tomorrow.😊 thanks again. And thx for all the shares 💜

Hi Misty😊I was in the middle of sharing back some of your things and came across this awesome listing of your tips😊👏👍I'll definitely be tagging newbies I mentor to come here.. Btw, way up👆in a comment you made about # of sales- when we all go & look at our stats & see #sold, it's a bit misleading bc I've sold many bundles w/multiple items.. I wish Posh had set this up so every single item/listing we've sold is counted vs. every transaction. To date many of my sales, about 30% have been bundles, sometimes with up to 3-5 items within the bundle!! So for example if I've done 80 transactions, you might as well add another 50+ bc of the bundles, but it's not reflected. I know this may sound a bit petty to some bc at the end of the day it's about the sales$$$$. I've come across hundreds of closets where Poshers have proudly displayed their # sold but they've lucked out & haven't done but maybe less than 5 bundles.. One of the gals I'm currently mentoring actually asked me about this as it relates to % of the # sold. I told her that the reason a person has high # of sales is bc she has a large closet, 300+ items listed, so in general the bigger the closet, the more variety a buyer has in selecting what they'd like to purchase... Thxs for all the tips, it's great to have whether a newbie or oldie, lol! I created my acct back in Aug 2013 but waited 9 mos before actually getting my closet up! Too many things going on back then but worked very hard to catch up!! Keep the kitty pics coming too; love those😻😻😻
jewelry_party
@lakeforest yep # of sales don't reflect items for sure. I have like 1/4 the # of sales as I do items sold. 5-600 listings at the bottom are sold. More items mean more add ons when it comes to bundling. You can have more specific sales when you have a large closet. Like a jewelry sale. Half my closet is jewelry so... Lol also my biggest chunk of advice is even good for seasoned Posher's, I want to get all the attention I can so I make sure that at all times I have at least one item available that matches EVEY CATEGORY.

@mystheart Thank you for all these tips. I have been reading all others concerns and your comments and definitively it does makes sense. I was surprise the things I was doing wrong. In the past I use to ask to myself what were doing wrong? My pictures from my closet are gouges and the presentation I could say outstanding. Today thanks from you and from the other sellers I learned what I was doing wrong. There are some other issues that some people like to do is that they want you to model your dresses, shoes even if you have already a maniqui. In one of a seller comment she was totally correct. Some people likes you to model for them and sometime you can but times you won't. I also I don't like seeing is when people have messed up feet and take pictures of shoes with there feet in them all dirty and cracked. If I see this I will totally remove this seller from my list. Discipline is very important. I won't ever purchase an item from this kind of seller presentations. Others try to sell things in dirty conditions as handbag, peeling off, and use to say it's not notable. This turn me off. I always use to say to myself, "remember the first impression always counts", so keep this on mind. I always have been successful when I use to work because my presentations was always neat. Trust me, the first impression says a lot of your personality. Thanks again for all your inputs and the inputs from the other girls too. Sincerely, Mitzylenzy

I'm so confused, Misty! Are jewelry boxes allowed to sell or not?
jewelry_party
@chrimsonshane not allowed. Posh told Lorena that jewelry boxes are not wearable.
chrimsonshane
Thank you. I've seen them for sale and wondered.
chrimsonshane
So only items that are wearable are allowed? Otherwise people could list almost anything and call it an accessory lol. Saying that something must be "wearable" makes more sense.

@chrimsonshane Hey what do you mean? I don't wear my car? It wears me! I consider it a comfortable old sweater with shoulder pads! 😂😂😂
divamom820
So when a sellar offers through other sites - and I've gotten a lot, to cut costs, as the buyer, id rather not. Is it etiquette-wise ok to just say "no thank you?" Thanks!
jewelry_party
@divamom820 I would say so. I can see if maybe their was more of a product that you're interested in, then it might make sense to go and look, otherwise as a buyer myself, I would just say that I want to keep my transactions safe and I'll only buy on Posh.

@mistyheart Hi Misti! I have a question. So I had a couple people add my listings to bundles but no sales yet so I'm wondering if I should let them know that they might have accidently clicked on the 'add to bundle' button? Do you know if the listing will still be available for others to buy even though these poshers have added my listing to a bundle?
jewelry_party
@loveaclosetfind Hi yes it will still be available. Some people share just like they like to get sales. So add to bundle helps them keep an eye out for what they really want. But its still anyone's game at buying the item. 👸
loveaclosetfind
@mistyheart great! Thank you!!
jewelry_party
@loveaclosetfind liking an item again only alerts the seller and does not share it with others.

@mistyheart Sorry about that misty! I was reorganizing my Likes! Sorry about all the random notifications!!!

luv_wendi
@mistyheart I was wondering about the best way to organize my closet Pics I see some closets group there items by the different categories or seasons etc..how are they moving the pics around is their some way I'm not seeing to move around or is order that you've listed them just the order they stay?
jewelry_party
@luv_wendi When you share or update your item in your closet it moves it up to the top of your closet.
jewelry_party
@luv_wendi Some people also organize by color... Also a lot of poshers will put the items that they would like chosen as a host pick up at the top of their closets so it will be seen by the current hosts that are looking.
jewelry_party
@luv_wendi a super quick way to "share" your own listings, if on your phone is by tapping edit at the top right of your screen and then it says next, tap it, then it says list and tap it. 3 taps and it shares your listing a lot faster. If you ever posh on the computer like I'm doing right now, it's a million times faster to share!
luv_wendi
@mistyheart thanks for the tips I love hearing about any idea that helps speed up the Poshing process. I love to share items including my own and wish I had more time for it but with my job it only allows for minimal time for Poshing. Thank you for taking your time to share what tricks you have learned. 💞 HAPPY HOSTING.
rt4katie
@mistyheart OMGosh, thank you! I've got lots to learn- and do!
diblank
Any new ideas about how to clean out inactive closets from closet you are "following"? The floater theory did not work for me. Unless, every closet I follow is still very active, but I doubt it. I wish Posh would suspend closets not active after so long.
jewelry_party
@diblank hmm yes it would be nice if they'd suspend closets... but I know that some "buyers" only shop for Christmas and birthdays. Instead of trying to get rid of inactive poshers these days, I aim for the most active and follow them. Under the tab New People you can follow those who have just joined. Try following a ton of newbies and then share your closet to the feed and see if that helps. Only your followers can see what you share to the feed.
diblank
I am more bothered sellers that are inactive and unresponsive but still have all of their items actively for sale.
jewelry_party
@diblank oh yeah I know! I'm trying to buy a bundle from a closet right now but they aren't there... so annoying! Try writing to posh support, they may update if they can figure out a smart way of doing it so it's fair all around.
