Just started my Poshmark Closet. What's the usual wait time until items start selling? And what is the best way to sell?

💖 great listing Lorena🌟

@10clippers Hi Shelley, welcome to Poshmark! Feel free to ask me questions :)
chictowear
@amandahanger Hi Amanda! Well the best way to get your items noticed are having great pics and constantly sharing your closet whether it's yours or others.' This way you get activity to your closet. I also recommend sharing your items to all theme related parties since this is where the most active users (buyers/sellers) are located at various times of the day. Following all posh rules is key for potential Host picks. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have additional questions. :)
chictowear
@chrimsonshane Thanks!
chictowear
@crassvitsa Hi Zarina! Great start to your closet. :) There is no specific wait time to start selling however in the beginning it can take a while to get the hang of how things work on Poshmark. I checked through your closet. Try adding more pictures to your listings, this may help. Share your closet on a daily basis to your followers. Share others' closets to bring activity to your closet and finally join all theme related parties. Why? Well the most active buyers/sellers are on at this times. Hope this information help and let me know if you have questions! Thanks!
chictowear
@amandahanger You're welcome, Amanda! :)
chictowear
@kaciihamer! Welcome dear! Well let me start off by telling you what a great start to your closet. :) As to pricing, you can try to check other closets on Poshmark with your item that are for sale or have sold and price it in that vicinity. If you cant find your item, try searching ebay or seach engine it for pricing tips. You have very popular items so share your closet as well as others' and you will start getting activity to your closet. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have additional questions, I am happy to help! -Lorena
klynnp92
@lorenad_21 What is a "host pick"?
chictowear
@klynnp92 Hi and great start to your fab closet. :) What is a 'Host Pick?' So every night there is a themed party hosted by several gorgeous ladies. These ladies pick from many closets to showcase to the party. The 'host pick' should meet the appropriate theme. If you are one of the lucky ones with a HP, you are showcased on a separate section of the party and get shares, as well as follows. You might even have a sale! Isn't that neat?! A good way to start is introduce yourself to the hosts so they may take a peek in your closet. You get invited on a daily basis by Poshmark for parties (for following day). Hope this information helps! Let me know if you have additional questions! :) -Lorena
chictowear
@itsllyss Hi! Great start to your closet! Once an item has been shared it cant be undone, unfortunately. I checked out your listing, In my opinion to add your last picture as cover pic and for the header to add sequin and silk since those are the biggest attributes to this dress. Share your listing and others' Hope this helps! :)
gabrielle117
I'm so glad you have this option! How do I increase my chances of people seeing my listings and buying?
balentib
Is it safe to offer a price by putting in my card number and everything, kind of ify about those kinds of things.
chictowear
@gabrielle117 Hi Gabrielle! Great start to your closet! :) Join the parties by sharing your listings and sharing others' as well. Following closets also helps bcs increasing followers gives you a higher probability of having someone interested in one of your items. Hope this helps! Let me know if you have additional questions! :)
chictowear
@balentib Hi Brooke! It's as safe as you're going to get. Poshmark stands behind you with all transactions made in the app. Poshmark gets your information to make the transaction, not the seller. Hope this helps!
chictowear
@dolldoes Hi Morgan! I follow a lot of closets. I'm almost at 600k! A lot of work but worth it! :)
nataliecherisse
I have a question. How would i pack shoes nicely into a box for shipping if i don't have the shoe box anymore? Just in case you might've encountered this before, i just want to make sure my packages will be nice & presentable to the buyer :)
chictowear
@itsllyss During party time, when you are about to share your item you are prompted with a window with an option to share to your followers or party. In this case, you share to party. That is all. Easy huh? :)
chictowear
@nataliecherisse You can use any little box the shoes fit in. I like to include tissue paper and a thank you note. You can also try the free priority mail boxes provided bu USPS. Dont use flat rate tho, as shipping charges will increase. Hope this information helps! :)
chictowear
@ronela Good morning! :) A love note is a message provided by buyer to seller. At that time buyer provides information on her experience with buyer. This option is available for 5 star rating experiences. Hope this helps! :)

@itsllyss You're welcome and thanks for stopping by! :)

lexiemadeit
Hi Lorenad_21, first I wanted to thank you for being so nice and helping newbies like me. I am starting to get several followers and "likes" and I would like to thank them, but I am not sure where to leave a message, not all of them have a message "item" like yours. I thought of adding a message "item" to my closet where to thank everyone but I am not sure if everyone will see it. So far I am just reciprocating the "following or likes". Thanks.
mtlaurel36
Hi I'm new! Im wondering how to get my money on an item I just sold
chictowear
@lexiemadeit Hi Sandra! You're welcome, I am happy to help! You're doing a good job by following back as this brings more activity to your closet. A good way to thank someone is just by sharing a few items in their closet. This way you may get returned shares or even a few questions on your items. What's key is sharing sharing sharing! Hope this helps! :)
chictowear
@mtlaurel36 Hi Laurel! Welcome and good job on your first sale! So I see that you just sold your item, so the next step is to package it and send out. So once the recipient receives the item, they inspect and should go onto Poshmark to 'accept' the item. Once they do this, funds will be released to you. If they forget to do this, PM automatically releases funds after 3 days. Once funds have been released to you, you have the option to get it direct deposited into your bank acct or get a check mailed out to you. Hope this helps and happy poshing! :)
jalyw
Until last night I was a buyer only and have loved ever experince. I have now put clothes in my closet. Can you take a peak and tell me what I might need to tweek in order to get a better response? Btw I have been following
Sharing, and liking like crazy.
chictowear
@jalyw well I am happy to hear that you are having a great experience. I enjoy PM as well! :) So I checked out your closet and it looks great overall. A few suggestions: try to add the maximum pictures allowed which is four. I do front, back, side, and close up. Why? Buyers want to see as many pics before purchasing. Another thing, your first two are the brightest so that looks great. Try doing that with the rest of your cover listings. And I did notice that you are thanking everyone who shares or likes, I think the best way to thank them is by sharing back. That is all or else you will tire yourself out, and we dont want that. :) Poshmark is a sharing community so everyone is doing it. Revert your energy to sharing and building your closet. Sales will come thereafter. Overall good job, Joy! :) Hope this helps!
jalyw
😊 I have been making a point of thanking and sharing back! For some reason when I was taking pictures through the app they were coming out fuzzy looking. So I had to go through other ways of getting pics. My two piece suit doesn't look nearly as good in the pics as in person. Thank you for your suggestions and taking the time to look my closet over!

hailey13x
Where do you find so many cute closets to follow?! 😱😍
chictowear
@shoenvi Hi! Great closet! I recommend you to share an item of theirs instead of thanking them because sometimes a person may just be bookmarking your closet or maybe interested at a later time. If you want to respond to a question, add @ before their name. Hope this helps! :)
chictowear
@shoenvi and to add graphics, go to your 'play store' to get download applications with your interests in mind.

@hailey13x Hi Hailey! So I see you're not a newbie. hehe. I find them as much as you probably. I go to archives and just follow away.

ash_risen
I love what you're doing! It's so nice (: . Could you give me tips on trading? That's my main interest for some reason
chictowear
@ash_risen Hi dear, thanks so much. Since I am here to help, I have checked out your closet and see items NOT allowed on Poshmark. Women's new and used clothing are allowed, jewelry, accessories, handbags, NEW bathing suits with tags, NEW undergarments, and shoes are allowed. Everything else is not permitted. I want you to have great success so lets clean up your closet, first? :) As to trading, Poshmark allows it but doesn't supported it. It is based on the 'honor system' so if anything goes wrong, Poshmark is NOT responsible. Let me know if you have additional questions. Thanks!
ash_risen
Thank you :)

You're welcome @ash_risen

lauren_madaris
How can I sell my stuff?
chictowear
Hi Lauren! Thanks for stopping by! I want you to have great success, so I checked out your closet and see that you're selling a boy's item. This is a prohibited item. If you read my conversation with ash_risen, you will see what is allowed to sell. I will also post a list later today or tmrw to make it a little easier to understand. It makes it a little tougher to make a sale with prohibited items. More listings are recommended as well since buyers trust closets with more than 10+ listings. Share your closet, join parties, and share your closet as often as you can. Hope this helps! @lauren_madaris
chictowear
@jujumama5 Thank you, Julie! :)
lauren_madaris

chictowear
@ikhlos Hi and welcome to Poshmark! The best way to get followers is by following closets. Most of them follow back. Join the parties on a daily basis and you will see more activity in your closet. Also, read the thread above to get more tips! Hope this helps! -Lorena

stephanielatina
@lorenad_21 it's my first day! When you attend parties, are your items automatically shared?
chictowear
@stephanielatina Hi Stephanie and welcome to Poshmark! You have to share your own items to party. Come party time, when you share your item, there will be two boxes one for your followers and the other for the party. At that time, you share to party. Easy as pie! :) Let me know if you have additional questions, dear! Also, like this listing so you can always come back with more questions :)
chictowear
@danialjessica89 Welcome to Poshmark! Feel free to read the thread for invaluable information and if you still have additional questions, please ask! :)

Follow as many closets as you can, add more items, and join the posh parties. Detailed information can be found in above conversations. Hope this helps! :) @danialjessica89

@lorenad_21 I have a question, I see people wanting to trade often...how does it work and what's the safest way to go about trading? Thank you! @sydneymcox
chictowear
@nealy_cox Hi Nealy! Although, trading is allowed on Poshmark, it is not supported by Poshmark. It is based on the 'honor system' so it is risky to go this route.
mariepg
@lorenad_21 hi thanks a bunch for this posting. I was wondering how to reserve or bundle items. I'm fairly new to the selling aspect, I'm mostly a buyer.
chictowear
You're welcome, Marie! I am happy to help! You can 'reserve' a bundle by going to listing and editing. From there go all the way to the bottom right above the 'delete' button and you will have an option to add it as 'for sale' or 'reserve.' Choose 'reserve.' As for bundles, there are many ways to do it but I use two ways to do it. First, I just add the items in each picture slot and include what items they are in the description. Another option: download an app with collage capabilities, you add the pics in the cover photo,add items sold in description and viola! Hope this helps! Let me know if you have additional questions! -Lorena @mariepg
stephanielatina
@lorenad_21 how does one's item become a host pick?
chictowear
Introducing yourself to Hosts is a great way to start. You get invited on a daily basis by Poshmark about the following day's party. You will see then who will be hosting. Joining all parties especially the evening bash helps. Hope this helps! @stephanielatina
stephanielatina
Thanks so much for all your help @lorenad_21
katiegerster
When you sell an item does posh mail you a shipping label, or do they email one that I would have to print?
Thanks :D
chictowear
@stephanielatina You're welcome, Stephanie! Stop by anytime! :)
chictowear
@katiegerster Hi Katie and welcome! Since I want you to succeed on Poshmark, I couldnt help but notice that you're selling undergarments without tags. Unfortunately, those items cannot be sold on PM. You will have a harder time making sales because of this. Why? Some buyers only like to purchase from rule abiding closets. You can see my list above of what is/isnt allowed on PM. And to answer your question, you get emailed however there is a new feature right on your app where you can download the label directly from there. Hope this helps and let me know if you have additional questions as I am happy to help. Thanks!

Yes! !! I'm new to poshmark I would love to learn more . It's a bit confusing ! I am very interested please. ......!
chictowear
@fabbaby Hi Irene and welcome to Poshmark! Since I want you to have great success on PM, I checked out your closet and found out that you're selling prohibited items (perfume, sold-lotions). Its removal is recommended. Please refer to my above listing of prohibited items. Rule abiding closets make more sales. Feel free to read this thread for invaluable information. If you have questions, please ask. Thank you!

alexandras323
Is there a weight limit for a item? For $4.99 shipping?

@alexandras12 Yes, there is . Each $4.99 package should not be more than 5lbs. Additional charges will apply the heavier it is. :)

This information is all very helpful indeed. I am super excited about PM, and can't wait for my first sale. Hopefully I am doing everything correctly. So many great items, and I keep buying. LOL!! Any tips for my closet? I appreciate your insight.

chictowear
@his_heart Thank you! So I checked out your closet and I see prohibited items. I know I havent included perfumes or lotions in my listings above but I am working on that. It is actually prohibited to send any type of liquid via USPS so obviously (liquid makeup, lotions, nail polish, perfume, etc), cant be sent. You have great items otherwise but I recommend the perfume to be removed for better success on Poshmark. Hope this helps!

ind_v
I just started posting things to sell on here and how do I get more followers and get people to buy my clothes?
chictowear
@fireglowgem The same way you share your listing, the window pops up (if on desktop or phone) so the many other social media sites are right below, you just click on them. You can MOST definitely join themed parties. Today for example, there was a jewelry party and everyone was invited to join as long as jewelry is being sold. Everybody has a preference of their own, it all depends on what the individual is looking for. Hope this helps! :)
chictowear
@ind_v Welcome to Poshmark, Cheyenne! The easiest to acquire followers is by following closets. Most follow back. I recommend to share your listings and share others' closets to get activity. You also get invited to themed parties on a daily basis by Poshmark so I recommend for you to join as the most active buyers/sellers are on at those particular times. Hope this helps! :)

So sweet of you to answer question! I apologize if you already answered this... But how do I rearrange my closet so that sold items are on the bottom??
jennamarie2010
just wanted to say: I think Posh accepts trades now (: I don't think they 100% support it, but it's allowed.
jennamarie2010
@elianas Posh will release your payment when the person who purchased your items tells them that they have received it and it's the same item/condition you described.
chictowear
@jennamarie2010 I am aware that trading is allowed but not supported by PM :)
chictowear
@megmacaroon Hi Meg and welcome! You simply share all your 'for sale' items. Your sold items will then appear at the bottom.
chictowear
@elianas Congrats on your first sale! Funds will be released once buyer 'accepts' the item on the application.

@jchamaty You're welcome, I am happy to help! Great start to your closet! :) Poshmark is a sharing and follow community so everyone is doing it. No need to thank everyone when it is done to you.

They will get the message then. Hope this helps! :)

streetlevel
Hello @lorenad_21, thank you for the opportunity to ask questions. What is the best way to weigh my package to ensure it is not heavier than 5 pounds?
chictowear
@streetlevel Hi and you're welcome, I'm happy to help! The best way would be to get an approved USPS mail weight scale. I have one, acquired from amazon! Hope this helps!
streetlevel
Thank you @lorenad_21! One last question if I may...does the 5lbs include the weight of the box or is it 5lbs aside from the box weight?
chictowear
@streetlevel 5lbs includes the item/s and box. Hope this helps and like always, I am happy to help!

I appreciate the help! I'm on amazon now looking for a USPS scale. Have a good night!

gracedanielle16
What does it mean when it says reserved?
chictowear
@gracedanielle16 Hi again, Grace! It means someone is about to purchase the item.
gracedanielle16
Oh okay and how do I send them the package
chictowear
@gracedanielle16 sometimes the 'buy' button might be pressed on accident so 'reserved' might appear for a few minutes, too. And when sending a package, you get a shipping label by email from Poshmark. You post on package and you're ready to go.
gracedanielle16
You're probably tired of me but one more question do I get paid in cash or check or how?
chictowear
@gracedanielle16 not a problem at all. It depends which option you choose. Once your item has been accepted, you will be provided with those options.
gracedanielle16
Thanks soo soo much

you're welcome @gracedanielle16

Heeey! Im new and i just bought some items. . I have a couple questions. 1. How do i know i won't get screwed over by the seller and she takes my money and never send the item... and 2. If i sell an item is there a chance after i send it i won't get paid?
curated_styles
Hi, I'd like to know to ship an item and if we're just using s standard brown box. Do we need to put anything else on the box besides the shipping label? Or do I need he usps priority shipping label as well? TIA 😊
chictowear
@roseoliviaa Welcome to Poshmark! If you mean by having more visibility to your closet, I would recommend sharing a lot. Whether it's to your followers or parties. Sharing others' closets help a lot to bring traffic. Hope this helps!
chictowear
@ashafrash09 Hi welcome! The seller isn't paid until you 'accept' the item. You will get paid once buyer 'accepts' item on app or after 3-4 days (if buyer forgets to accept) whichever comes first. Hope this helps! :)
chictowear
@miaajade Welcome! You can use a standard box or the free priority boxes provided by USPS. All you need to put is the shipping label (emailed from Poshmark) onto box. Hope this helps!

@4everkool Hi! Since I want much success for you, I do have to inform you that you are selling an unsupported item (bra). Please have that removed. Used undergarments are not permitted or wout tags. And to answer your question, I dont recall but I think a couple of days. Hope this helps! :)

@astridsextras Hi I see that you are selling unsupported items. Liquids of any type are not allowed to sell on Poshmark. USPS does not allow these items to be distributed via air postal. I want you to succeed on Poshmark so I recommend the removal of such items. Thanks for your understanding.
astridsextras
@lorenad_21 thanks honey!
chictowear
@astridsextras You're welcome!
eul
Hi! I don't understand how people lower the shipping cost?
chictowear
@eul Hi! It's at Poshmark's own discretion but if seller drops the price by 10% on any item over $10 this may apply.
stefros77
Hi I just found out about this website and I found these really cute shoes that I'm interested in buying but I'm worried that once I receive them, they will turn out to not fit. So I'm wondering what the return policy is for poshmark?
chictowear
@stefros77 Hi and welcome to Poshmark! :) Unfortunately there isn't a return policy in place. It is an ''as is'' purchase. I recommend to ask a few questions about the item before purchasing. Hope this helps! :)
stefros77
Oh okay. Thanks for the quick response and the follow! :)

@lorenad_21 hi i have a quetion... so when i sold an item PM is going to send me a label right.?? I have to print that label right?? But what kind of paper should i use..does it has to be one like sticker u know like sticky from one side so i could put it on the package or what..????
chictowear
@buffalojulie Hi Julie! Your closet is looking great! You can use Aviary (which I use a lot) for cover shots. I do see that you sold an unsupported item (face). You probably didnt know but from now on just remember that if you can't technically wear, it's probably not allowed on Poshmark. Hope this information helps! :)
chictowear
@3marlen3 Hi! Poshmark emails you the shipping label. You can print on plain white paper or shipping label stickers. Hope this helps! :)
3marlen3
@lorenad_21 thank u for taking the time to answer. And yes it really helps alot. Thank u much!
chictowear
@3marlen3 You're welcome! Feel free to 'like' this listing so you can come back anytime to ask additional questions. :)
buffalojulie
@lorenad_21 Thank you for your kind words! And I wasn't sure about that item, I did check to see if any had been sold before. But will be more careful in the future. I'll check out that app too!
chictowear
@buffalojulie You're welcome! :)
nataliecherisse
Hi, why is there a reserved banner on one of my items in my closet? I thought the app didn't have a reserve feature?
chictowear
@nataliecherisse Someone probably clicked on one of your listing's 'buy' button by accident. 'Reserve' usually appears when someone is about to buy an item.
chictowear
Hi and thanks for stopping by! Since I want you to succeed on Poshmark, please refer to my above pictures for items allowed. As for trading, Poshmark does not support so it may be risky to go this route. Good luck! :) @mslilone

@pinkchmpagne Hi! You can basically use an app to bundle your items and make the listing. You can use priority mail packages or your very own. Hope this helps!

Why do people negotiate in comments instead of the offer button? Is this against posh rules?
chictowear
@eul Hi Jessica! The 'offer' button is a new feature. People used to negotiate in the comments section. People still negotiate on there for bundles. It is not against posh rules.

@mawalk5 Hi and welcome to Poshmark! So I checked out your closet and see that you are selling unsupported items (keyboard). Please remove this to have better chances at success. Let me know if you have questions :)

@wcoastkennedy Thank you! Yay, good job with the sales! Great cover pics! You are doing a great job so far :)
wcoastkennedy
Now that I have just gone and done it, is there a better/easier way to rearrange your closet without flooding the feed? I feel bad for doing a rush but I want to get my sold items to the bottom! Lol.
wcoastkennedy
Oh, and thank you very much! 😊❤️
chictowear
@sogushop Hi! I see that you have 19 unsupported items for sale. I recommend the removal of these items (please refer to my above listings of what you can sell) to have a better chance of making sales. People tend to trust closets who follow posh rules. As to redeeming your balance...once buyer 'accepts' item/s, funds will then be released to you. Hope this helps! :)
chictowear
@wcoastkennedy You're welcome. The only way to get your sold items to the bottom is by sharing all those that are for sale.
wcoastkennedy
Sharing it is then! Lol. It's not considered bad etiquette to share your items too much/a lot at once?
chictowear
@wcoastkennedy No, not at all. The more you share your closet the better it is for you to get exposure.
wcoastkennedy
Ahh, that makes me feel better! Thank you for the feedback and for answering my questions! Much appreciated. 😊❤️

ox_purplekissez
Really?!? I'm here thinkin u can sell anything on based on other peoples closets @lorenad_21
chictowear
Those are Poshmark rules, sorry @ox_purplekissez Those closets are not following the rules. They will have a more difficult time making sales since ppl will have a harder time trusting. So their items may not be shared by others as often. Hope this helps!

@lorenad_21 I had my first sale this week, which is awesome. I shipped it out the next day, it had nice tissue paper and a thank you card. I just saw the person gave me 4 out of 5 stars but no comment. I really tried for that 5 star review and followed all of poshmarks suggestions. What can one do?
chictowear
@kmykal2 Hi sorry, just saw your message. From the looks of it, you're doing well. Post more, join parties, sell authorized items and you should be set! Hope this helps!
kmykal2
@lorenad_21 Ty so much for getting back to me ... I will post more this weekend for sure ... Thx again...🌺
chictowear
@beardove Hi Jane! Yay good job! You did an excellent job. Sometimes it is out of your control as to how someone sees what a 5 star transaction should look like. Don't worry I have gotten the same as well. You can try to message her and ask if everything is alright with the item and that you would like to hear her input. It doesn't hurt to try. :)
chictowear
@kmykal2 you're welcome!
beardove
I will try that! Thanks!
beardove
@lorenad_21 I have one more question. I had someone comment on a necklace of mine and tell me it is a HP - which is awesome! But when I went to the party and looked to see my item in the host pick showroom I didn't see it. I also don't see that person listed as one of the hostesses? Are there more hostess than what are listed?
chictowear
@beardove sometimes people get confused and message on accident. it happens. Just update the listing again. The only hosts are the ones listed. Next time, if you see a host share your listing during party hours, most likely it will convert to HP.
beardove
Gotcha!

beardove
@lorenad_21 how does one trigger the discount shipping? Do you just edit your listing price and then drop it by 10%? I am not able to tell if I have done it successfully. Thanks!
chictowear
@beardove Correct. Like the listing so you can see if it has triggered discounted shipping.
beardove
@lorenad_21 Thanks! Follow up question - if I am at my lowest price, do I need to make a new listing at a higher price, then reduce, for the buyer to get the shipping special? Or can I just increase then decrease the price back to where it was in my current listing? (Thanks for your help, I had googled it and looked at FAQs and couldn't find the answer)
chictowear
You're welcome @beardove If the individual wants to bundle then yes, that is correct to go that route. you can still make new listing if you want. Unfortunately, once you decrease price on a listing, you have to keep decreasing to trigger discounted shipping. You can increase but you wont be able to apply shipping discount unless it meets the additional 10% off to your lowest price.
beardove
Thanks for the help! 😘
chictowear
@beardove You're welcome! :)

dan______k
Hi, I am relatively new to poshmark- I joined last month. I was wondering if anyone could provide some insight to my current situation.. I sold a beautiful dress that was in great condition recently, and I have now been informed that it is being returned due to being "not as described". There was nothing wrong with the dress, and in my opinion I described it well in the listing. I've reached out to posh mark multiple times to try and figure out what was wrong with the dress,
dan______k
but I am just being told it is damaged/not as described. The buyer has had the dress for almost a week now, and I'm afraid that she has damaged it in order to receive a refund. Has anyone ever experienced a situation like this? Thanks❤️
curated_styles
Hi Lorena, how do I determine if an item is over 5lbs? Do I print the shipping label take it down to the post office and weigh it there, then get a new shipping label? Or can I use a standard scale that I weight myself here at home with. Then determine there if I need a new shipping label for items weighing more than 5lbs. Thank you so much in advance.
chictowear
@miaajade Hi Mia! I use a standard mail scale. It's up to you which method you use as long as accurate lbs are disclosed. If package happens to be more than 5lbs, you can pay for extra coverage and print that label on app. Hope that helps!
chictowear
@dlopez1999 Hi! Yes, they can but they can't comment or "like" any of your items.

nataliecherisse
I have a question about the price drop discounts. Are you only allowed to drop the price of an item ONCE for the buyers to get discount shipping? Just incase you don't understand my question, the other day I dropped the price of an item by at least 20% and no one bought it, so i wanted to drop the price a little more. But it didn't show up as a discounted item after i did that.. Can you tell me why?
chictowear
@nataliecherisse no, you can drop as much as you want as long as you keep dropping the price by 10%. If you drop the price then increase then drop again, it will not show if discount is not from the lowest historical price. Price drop discounts apply for $10+
nataliecherisse
So if i bring the price back up on an item i originally discounted, & tried to discount it again, it wouldn't work anymore?
chictowear
@nataliecherisse Not if you don't discount from your lowest price reduction
confidentcloset
@lorenad_21 hi I was wondering if you could help me. I sold a dress on here brand new with tags to a buyer who got and said it was just way to small. But then said there's a rip below the zipper so she's returning which before sending out the dress it was in perfect condition.
confidentcloset
@lorenad_21 I received a damaged dress back that was in perfect condition when I sent it out. I emailed poshmark support three times about this. The first time I got a generic response completely disregarding my concern. My following emails about my now damaged item revived no response. This is just really poor on poshmarks customer service. I'm not sure where to go from here.
chictowear
@confidentcloset Hi Sara! I am sorry to hear about your ordeal. In my opinion, I advise you to video record all your items before sending out bcs you just never know if this could happen and in your case, it happened. Delete video after item has been "accepted."It is a hassle but avoids this type of situation altogether. Look at it as insurance.
chictowear
As for contacting PM, it sounds like they made a decision before your subsequent emails. They are basically following protocol-buyer submits a claim, investigate with pictures rcvd by buyer, then make decision. They can't do much once claim has been closed. Again, I am sorry to hear this happened to you but take my advice about recording items for a sense of relief and protecting yourself. I am always here to answer your questions. -Lorena :) @confidentcloset

@lorenad_21 hi Lorena, I have a question about pricing. Was prices are posted as "0" then they list for "$$" what does that do? As in cheaper shipping and so? I sold something the other day and a posher asked me to make a new listing for "$$" then she would like then she asked me to drop price. I'm a little confused to what does that do? Thank you in advance for answering my questions.

@okpham You're welcome! Welcome to Poshmark!
chictowear
@4dogsforme Welcome to Poshmark! If you have any questions, feel free to ask :)
chictowear
@msvibiana Hello and welcome to Poshmark! Bundling allows you to purchase more than one item from one particular closet or shop. To start a bundle, click on the icon in the upper right hand corner of the listing and click "Add to Bundle." Easy as that! Then proceed to view discounts (if any) and purchase options. Hope this helps! :)
chevi15
@lorenad_21 hello! I'm kind of new. The bundling is kind of confusing for me. But the buyer does the bundling correct?
chictowear
Hello and welcome! @chevi15 Bundling option on phone is done by buyer however, a buyer can still ask the seller to custom make a bundle for them if needed.
chevi15
@lorenad_21 how do you do the custom bundle?
chictowear
there are many ways but how I do it is by downloading an app like photofy and adding 2+ items on collage feature then add a new listing on posh with photo collage created. Add description accordingly. quite easy @chevi15

Weird question...how do you get an item to be a host pick?

@jesstb Thank you, too! I am so happy that you enjoyed it :)

How do you lower shipping price?
chictowear
@dannielynn8 hi! Poshmark has the only control to do this unfortunately. When they have shipping discount specials, its best to purchase at these times to take advantage of shipping discounts. Hope this helps!
dannielynn8
@lorenad_21 thanks so much for the help.
chictowear
@dannielynn8 youre welcome😁
emstyles_
Hey @lorenad_21 i started her on poshmark about 2 months ago i just would live to know in your opinion us there anything i should improve in my closet to increase my sales ? Let me know !! Thank you
chictowear
@emstyles_ Hi! So I checked out your closet and I was very impressed! You did a great job with the pictures as you posted max amount with detailed descriptions. In my opinion, summer is the slowest in sales especially aug so don't despair as sept sales usually increase with your shares to your followers. Share share share! :)

@juliabracco you're welcome

Hi! I just joined PM last night. I am sharing a lot and following others. Can you please peek at my closet and tell me what I should do to get sales? I want to post more but make sure I'm doing it "right" first! Thank you so much, in advance!

Hi I just joined PoshMark last night and I want to post more clothes up but I want to make sure that I'm doing it "right" first! Can you please take a peek into my closet and give me some advice? thank you so much in advance!
chictowear
@lmaggs Hello and welcome! Great closet! I would recommend to add more items and share others' closets as much as you can. Please read this entire thread for invaluable information and tips! Hope this helps!

@lorenad_21 thank you 😊

You're welcome @lmaggs

@mizsara Hi Sara! No need to do anything. If they buy, you just package and send out. Sometimes, there are ladies who save those items to come back to your closet at a later time. Hope this helps! :)
chictowear
@mizsara thank you and you're welcome! :)
chictowear
it automatically changes it for you once you accept the offer. If you dont want that offer, you can change it there. @mizsara

kaylee204
Hi, I just started selling on posh mark, if you can even call it that 😕, I can't seem to sell any of my stuff..I've sold 2 things and that's thanks to my mother lol.. is my stuff just really crappy or does it take a few weeks for things to be seen? I've shared so much and liked so many things..i guess maybe I'm just being impatient or I really don't have anything good! Lol. Anyways, is there anything else I can do to get my closet seen?
chictowear
@kaylee204 hello and welcome! So here are my pointers. I see that you havent shared your items to your followers or parties. this is imperative to gain success on poshmark. Also, I don't recommend for you to "like": items in order to get seller's attention since this can get you blocked. Larger closets like myself get this a lot. If you are actually interested in an item, then that's fine. I know it's a stretch, but read this entire thread for invaluable information. Hope this helps! :)

What does it mean when someone added one of my listings to a bundle
steelady43
I am fairly new but am catching on quickly. What does it mean though when you get a notification that says someone added your listing to a bundle?
chictowear
@steelady43 it means that a buyer might add two or more items to cart in hopes of purchasing. In this case, the seller doesn't have to do anything. Sometimes it is done by accident.
rocketcitypugs
omg I love this!!!!
chictowear
@teresamarie01 haha thank you 😁
steelady43
I'm so sorry if you answered this already in this huge long post, but I have never sold before and I'm getting ready to. From what I understand, does Poshmark give us a shipping label to print off ourselves?
chictowear
@steelady43 yes
shopspree03
Hi. I see that the best closets have professional quality photos...real models. How is that possible? Please and thanks.

@shopspree03 hi! I can't speak for others but I use stock photos
wellyweldon
Wow. This is GREAT! Thank you for helping out us newbies! Also, I really love your closet. I am working on growing my closet and have started introducing myself to hosts. I have noticed that not all hosts post the party as an item in their closets. In such a case, is it best to just like and share as a means of introduction? Or do you go to the "meet the posher" spot? I want to make sure I'm following the right ettiquette.
chictowear
Hi thank you so much! I am happy to help :) Most definitely, introducing yourself to hosts any way you can always helps. Shares may also get their attention, too! Good luck and have lots of fun! :) @wellyweldon
wellyweldon
@lorenad_21 thanks! I'm definitely spending lots of time sharing. How often should I share my own closet? I've been going to "list" and re listing with the party "on". Is sharing your own closet just re listing like that?

queenjoymd
Started a month ago anyway I can sell more or get my closet noticed? Can you take a look at my closet and give me any critiques?
myluvkloset
I have quite a few shoppers that have added items to a bundle but never buy. Am I supposed to do something, like discount the items? I thought this was done automatically. I'm sharing a lot, adding followers, joining parties when I can, and already spent a lot more than I should but sales are slow in coming.
myluvkloset
Question: ,I've had a lot of people add items to a bundle then....nothing. Am I supposed to do something? Poshmark states I dont. Everything is automatic. But why aren't these people finalizing?
myluvkloset
Wow, I just noticed that I asked the general question 4 days ago.
myluvkloset
Sorry.

what do sellers mean by trade?
ilkrdwn
Hi. Just started selling on Poshmark. I understand the listing process but unsure about responding to others, sharing others closets (?) etc. can you provide any assistance? Thank you !
ilkrdwn
And one more question. If we have an item for sale but it doesn't sell in certain amount of time can I take it down?
chictowear
@ilkrdwn hi and welcome! You add @ before each closet name to respond. Yes, you can definitely re-list if you wish to do that.
chictowear
@myluvkloset hi its normal to get some people not to finalize, sometimes they change their mind. I get that a lot, too! I just let it be.

Hi, I'm new and haven't set up my closet to sell yet, still trying to familiarize myself on proper poshing. I have purchased items and that has been a great experience thus far. First question for now, selling bathing suits you state "with tags", which I agree completely that the should not be worn/used, but when I order online (Victoria's Secret) they do not come with tags. Never been worn but no tags, what is your advice for posting?
chictowear
@gobuyshoes hello and welcome! I haven't updated the pics but bathing suits are now allowed without tags.
openbutton
Thanks for the quick response. Another question, what does it mean when someone says they will "tag" you on something?
chictowear
@gobuyshoes when you add @ in front of username to any listing, like how I have tagged you now in my listing to respond to your question.

@lorenad_21 what does the "retail" mark refer to on listings? Are these not owned by the seller?
chictowear
@detaylle hi, it means that seller buys items wholesale or they're items from their individual line selling directly to consumers

Hey Lorena ! You are the best ! I have to tell that I am pretty lost in here🙉 I just want to know if you can help me now !

@po_de hi and welcome! I would love to help you out but I see that you have items in your closet that are not allowed on poshmark. Please refer to the posts above to see what is not allowed and to update your closet. Thanks!

Yeah ! I've noticed that ! I need to work that out ! Sadly there is no other app that works as nice as this one ! I thought I could post just a few items ... But I see that it shows all your closet ! Well anyways.. We are already having this conversation so would you mind telling me how do I get into parties so I don't bother you for this again ?! 🙉🙊
chictowear
@tcotnam welcome to poshmark! Thanks for stopping by! As for sharing, all you need to do is share. No need to comment in the listings that you shared. Some will return shares but some won't. Remember to share your closet to the parties and to your followers often. Have fun!

Hi! I want to lower the prices on some of my items to encourage sales. I know I can edit the price but I'd like to put it "On Sale" so it's noticeable to buyers that the price has been reduced. Do sellers have that ability when the decide to reduce there sale price? I've noticed other listings with "On Sale" banners.

ancapano
Hello there, and I love your closet! I do have a question though. When I first started here I had sold a perfume not realizing that isn't allowed, it was only that item and I have been very careful ever since. Now I've been here over a year and my page is starting to do well. I'm concerned that maybe the one sale will prevent me from being able to be a suggested user, having host picks, etc. It would really suck to have to start my page all over, I have been working SO hard! Any advice?

Can you unshare something?

Hi...great information! I'm new to Poshmark and LOVE it! Thanks for sharing what you know! I was wondering how I can tell if someone has left a comment or question under one of my items...without checking all of the items to see if something is there? Thanks again SOOOO much!
alskloset
Hi I'm new to poshmark (started my closet yesterday) and have made a sale... do you recommend boxing the item then wrapping and putting it in another box ? or do you usually just wrap the item in tissue paper and make it all pretty then box it to ship? (sorry if this is confusing)
nannerlh
Hi Lornead- I'm a newbie and have a question: I'm seeing perfume-cologne-fragrances being sold in great quantity/numbers on Poshmark; some of it by sellers with "high" profiles. What's the deal? How is a relatively long-lived member able to do this and not be banned? Not knowing any better initially, I had four perfume items listed and within 24 hours, I was getting messages regarding prohibited items. Is there some sort of double standard?

Just noticed No replies to anyone's messages here since last May.,,,

Okay, you volunteered, so I'm going to ask a silly newbie question: how do I bookmark closets beyond following them? Is there anyway to kind of shortcut to my favorites/most frequently referenced?

@kalimama07 @kalimama07 men’s items are allowed. Swimsuits w no tags allowed. Children’s allowed. Undergarments no tags needed. Bottoms should be new though. Everything else is correct
dimichl
Thanks for the pro tips 😉
chictowear
@_mamabearnilsen you’re welcome! I’m glad you’ve learned a few things. Just so you know this listing is a bit old but a lot of the information is still relevant. We are allowed to sell children’s, used bathing suits, home decor, and men’s clothing. Hope this helps!!
resamcc
Can I ask why you have a no for men's and children's clothing when they have their own sections on Poshmark? Are these a list of things you personally will and won't share? Just curious 🤗 have a lovely day! 💖

jdoll1850
Hi Lorena, just want to say I love your closet and the fact your so helpful to newbies with questions. I have 2 questions I would love your help with, where is the best place to find stock pictures of an item, and can you recommend an app for all those signs you see in people’s closets advertising sales, bundles, etc.? And of course any suggestions you might have on how I can improve my closet.
chictowear
@jdoll1850 hello Julie! Thank you for your kind words, I am happy to help. An app you can try is Canva for all your graphic design needs (easy to use). As for stock images, they may be subject to copyright so it is advisable to ask for permission to use. I hope this helps! I also do Poshmark consulting and I am in the process of creating several Poshmark educational courses for new users. Have a lovely weekend 😀
jdoll1850
@chictowear thanks so much for your response and suggestions! I’ll be sure and keep an eye out for your educational courses.

Hi there! Thank you for your help and time! I’m a little confused by the sharing aspect of poshmark. I’ve been on it now for about a week, so I probably should understand it by now, but...🤷🏻♀️. So, if someone shares an item from my closet with their followers say, and I want to return the favor, so I share an item from their closet with my followers, how come I do not see people sharing items from other people’s closets with me? Does that make sense? Thank so much! I really appreciate it.

Hi!! I’m just getting started on poshmark. Any tips from you regarding my closet or how to get my items noticed would be really appreciated !! I have more clothing items to add but like I said I am just getting started :) thank you in advance! ☺️🎀

Hi Lorena, thank your response and I am very interested in an action packed sales plan. What is entailed? Also, are you using or familiar with Poshserv for sharing closets at a fee base of $25/mo.?

yuanrulai
Hello Lorena, I shared my items at least 4000 times a day and I give offers to likers and I relist my items every day. I follow so many people everyday and share other's items everyday. BUT I only have very few sales since I joined Poshmark on July 30. I have brand new Free people, forever21, Parisian Work and so on. I have used H&M heeds, xoxo shoes, Vitoria Secret bra.
I am so sad… I invested money on clothes but I can’t even get money back not even make extra money.😭

tjensenames
@yuanrulai it looks like you and I have the same question. Similar start dates, lots of sharing of my own and other's items, but it's a continued severe lack of sales. I've sold one item. 😕 Hopefully Lorena can help us!

mayte777
I have an etiquette question because that really is important to me. When someone makes you an offer and the screen reads "decline", "counter", or "accept" is it rude or unethical not to respond to those in some manner unless you're accepting? It happens so often, and often I'm considering it, and then as new offers come in it just gets pushed back. I find myself feeling guilty when I realize I didn't respond.
chictowear
@mayte777 Hello Mandy! I totally understand what you’re going through. I find that the offer is used by buyers to find out if seller is willing to negotiate. It’s a starting point for most. You want shoppers to keep returning to your closet so it’s best to respond regardless. I had a buyer once who lowballed on an item, I countered, they didn’t buy but returned a week later and offered my original counteroffer. Hope this helps! 💕
mayte777
@chictowear thanks so much for responding so quickly. I completely understand that makes perfect sense. Thank you for the tip. And you're right, that was the whole point of me asking the question. I don't want to turn people away from my closet or not have them return due to feeling snubbed in some way. You have a blessed day and thanks again.
