aandr25
I think they are waiting for low price and Free shipping 😉
haleygall8
@aandr25 waiting for me to pay them to take it off my hands… NO THANK YOU 🤣🤣
aandr25
@haleygall8 That’s why I just gifted a bunch of things to some young friends of mine.
Oops,they missed it😆
haleygall8
@aandr25 exactly what I do! Little nieces and cousins ! and donate to womens shelters! Rather do that then get $1 for something!

Love this

That's great, but when you like an item and would like to purchase it and ask for information, such as what the item is made of and get no answer it's rather frustrating, especially when the seller is an ambassador. I keep receiving offers to purchase but never get an answer to my repeated requests for information. This is an issue that I've run into on multiple occasions.
haleygall8
@a_special_t is this pertaining to my closet?? I respond back very quickly and would be happy to answer any questions if you have some??
a_special_t
@haleygall8 No, not you, but several others. I appreciate your quick response though. I always try to respond to inquiries as quickly as possible. Thank you for posting this.
haleygall8
@a_special_t No worries! Same, I always try to get back within at least an hour or same day cause I would like the same when asking a question too!

@a_special_t same!!!! I waited 3 weeks for an answer on measurements… no reply. EVER. Then it sold for a super low amount!!! Yes to ALL OF THESE REPLIES!!!! 🙌🏼👏🏼

well said! The story of our daily lives...it's so annoying 🙄 Thanks for posting this 💯
jezzie24
Lots of people just window shopping! Hate the false hope of us getting a sold item!!!
haleygall8
@jezzie24 exactly!! and this isnt instagram! im here to sell ! haha
glamchick_001
Thank you!!!! Spread the word!!!!! I know how you feel!!!
Wishing you tons of sales 💵

I just want to say that I have a like section with hundreds of likes. It inspires me. I might buy later on…but if I like it and want to remember it, it’s a great tool for me. I hope it doesn’t frustrate people but I’m going to continue to pile up my likes. And I do buy…a LOT! So I think it’s ok. Just a friendly, different perspective on this. I have only good intentions toward you & your closet. 👩🏼🦰👱🏾👱🏼♀️
cottagegifts
I enjoy Likes on $3 items. Lol
haleygall8
@cottagegifts hahaha right!! Just buy it already at that point!!
cottagegifts
@haleygall8 Haha yeah I understand the frustration but if someone declines an offer, that’s a good thing, it means you can send offers in the future. Sometimes I like some so I can find it again later on when I’m ready to buy.
haleygall8
@cottagegifts for me declining is basically saying I liked it for nothing… especially when I’m telling people to pick a price because I’m moving and need stuff GONE! so declining for me = blocked for you 🤣 sorry not sorry!
cottagegifts
@haleygall8 I suppose in your situation of moving, yes. Maybe you need big MOVING SALE signs?
haleygall8
@cottagegifts i put those as well! People just think this is Instagram i think hahah
cottagegifts
@haleygall8 Oh I see you have FINAL PRICE on every listing. I understand better now. I with there was a way for a seller to disable the Like function.
cottagegifts
@haleygall8 also we should be allowed to opt out of receiving offers
cottagegifts
@haleygall8 Or FBk! Lol
cottagegifts
I would like to make a nickel on some days
haleygall8
@cottagegifts yes final price for anything I’m nothing longer going to send or accept offers on… to me anything under $8 ($5 profit) isn’t worth my time or effort.. i would rather donate to women and children shelters
cottagegifts
@haleygall8 I made a graphic for you in case you want to use it. I’ll see if I can send it to you on Instagram etc…if not, I’ll put it in my closet & tag you.
dacelovestyle
Omg YESSS!! to this much needed post ❤️
saintsandaints
@haleygall8 I think this can go two ways. Some may like the item but don't have the money at the moment. I like a lot of items , especially now poshmark is starting to offer discount shipping throughout the day. I hate when the like asked a lot of questions once answered. No response not even a thank you. A like doesn't necessarily mean an offer should be sent. After checking their buying history i might inform them that i am open to reasonable offers.
haleygall8
@trulydesire yeah sorry not how i work on my page. I’m moving and selling stuff for limited time. If i have it offered at $30 and you liked it then… why would you decline an offer for $10 plus shipping discount. All that shows to me is that person isn’t truly serious. And I’m that case I do block people who go through just liking items or that decline every offer. But whatever works for your closet works for you! I’ve had no more issues with no needed likes since posting this!
saintsandaints
@haleygall8 No. I totally get your point. I am not disagree with you. I get that all the time. And it can be frustrating. I had a person like 80 items from my closet. It mess up my feed.
haleygall8
@trulydesire yeah that is annoying!! Treating it like Instagram not like a selling site!
saintsandaints
@haleygall8 True.
joanbscott
I appreciate your post! I just made a post about issues like this today, including people (mostly other poshers)! make likes and huge bundles with me and do nothing. why waste people's time 🙄
peanutmypup
I don’t think you truly understand what a like is. Think of it as a page holder. I love the item but it’s not my size so I don’t want to lose it when I go search my size, or I want to show my sister to see what she thinks, or a dream list because she has 3 kids at home and her husband already works 2 jobs to put food on the table. Or I’m selling something similar. I tell everyone who likes my items on Friday and sundays about posh closet clearout. Some are so grateful. Have a blessed day.
roxee06
Is there a way to like a closet not follow? I would like to bookmark certain closets but don’t know how to do that? Hence, liking items…
clsimp563
I totally agree with your line of thinking. I am new and find it frustrating when people like one of my items, without buying or sending an offer. The offers I do get are low ball, which is offensive. I have spent time putting my closet together just like everyone else. And for me I'm probably slower than many when it comes to posting listings because I'm still getting used to the platform. I was told to send offers to likers to increase sales, its a waste of time, they don't accept them.
lottashoes
@trulydesire How do you check their buying history? I didn't know that could be done????
haleygall8
@lottashoes i don’t believe you can ? At least not that i know of haha
lottashoes
I used to get excited when somebody liked something and immediately send them an offer that gets ignored of sometimes declined. Now I just let the likes pile up and maybe send an offer later. I don't take it personally if someone likes and doesn't make an offer. I really think most people are being genuine and don't mean for it to be perceived as teasing a sale. But what I DO have an issue with is someone asking a whole bunch of questions that I answer immediately and then they drop it.....
lottashoes
Like the time someone asked the gram weight of a necklace. I sent a picture of it on a scale. Then they wanted to know how much the bowl of the scale weighed, so I sent a video of it, then nothing... I really wanted to comment about the barometric pressure in the room, but I bit my tongue!
lottashoes
@haleygall8 oh. I was responding to someone who commented about your post, saying she checked buying history. I didn't think you could either.
saintsandaints
@lottashoes click on about and read their loves notes. Sometimes people will comment on their about me page aswell.

zoeskii21
Ugh this has been the worst holding on to items with 15+ likes with no actual buyers
haleygall8
@zoeskii21 literally makes me want to pull my hair out! Like what’s the point?!?!
zoeskii21
@haleygall8 agreed ! Im trying to make money and this posh stuff is hard to sell at times i try and go so low even 5$ !!!! And nothing
haleygall8
@zoeskii21 right! And it comes to a point where I’m not even going lower for the fact of printing a label, getting a box and shipping it out.. not worth the low ball offers you even receive! It’s getting annoying anymore especially as they raise the fees!
zoeskii21
@haleygall8 i Couldn’t agree more I remember in the beginning I would just try to make any sale I could and I just made like three dollars 😭 I feel like people don’t realize how much of a deal they’re getting on the clothes / items
haleygall8
@zoeskii21 exactly! Or forget the fact that what other website or company that you purchase clothes online that you can negotiate a price you want to pay… Not one site I shop on 🤣 Better take this offer/discount as I’m giving!
zoeskii21
@haleygall8 EXACTLY!!!! I hate it , I have so many clothes just laying around in my room collecting space I’m just probably going to donate them or go to a place that can offer some store credit
haleygall8
@zoeskii21 same here and since I’m moving out of state can’t really and don’t want to take everything with me! So it’ll end up with younger cousins/family or donated to shelters. Rather feel good about doing something with all of it then accepting $1 just to sell it
mindygeske
#facts I couldn’t love this more! Or low balling offers. I got an offer for an item over $100 for $20 with free shipping. 🤣🥴 it’s like yeah no.
mariajulyqueen
@haleygall8 exactly!!! I absolutely LOVE what you wrote. And when people ask for measurements nine times out of 10 they don’t even respond and don’t buy and yes the people that like items that are dirt cheap are simply not getting a response from me💕
mariajulyqueen
One lady had the absolute nerve to ask me to put a not for sale sign on one of my bags because she worked nights and didn’t know what she would make I think she was a delivery person. Out of the kindness of my heart I did it and she never bought it I will never ever do that again.
wendy_lew
@a_special_t I didn’t realize the question of material was an issue. I’ll be sure to add those in my listings from now on. Ty for the post.
wendy_lew
@stellasparkle I do the same thing. Bc I am brain injured & I know there’s no way for me to remember who had it & where to find it ect.
a_special_t
@wendy_lew If it's clothing, I like to know what type of fabric. I was mainly referring to jewelry. Is it gold, sterling, or plated. Most sellers won't answer that question, so I assume it's cheap plated brass.
disneygurl2u
That is not fair. Poshmark even states in their policy that it is okay to like an item even if you are not going to buy it. There should be no pressure to buy. Perhaps the buyer does not have their paycheck or earnings yet but hope to buy on a later date. So, yes I disagree. 🤷♀️
disneygurl2u
I cannot believe this. I do not like lowball offers on the items that I am selling either but that is not always the reason behind a like. Some people like so they can later come back to buy. Come on! And, everyone likes. a good deal. You cannot tell me , y’all that you would not like a good deal as well! Right…as a seller we want profit but as a buyer, we want a bargain. Am I wrong?!? I do not think anyone has said that they would rather pay regular price on anything.
disneygurl2u
Okay then, no likes here
vintagequeen714
just chiming in! Yes, it's frustrating, it would be so nice if PM would give buyers another option other than "like", maybe window shopping, just looking, bookmarking, ???
affordpink
I hear that I had a girl had me put aside about $200 worth of items, said she saw me on a live auction and she did!
affordpink
So they gave her validity & has been on here longer than me, and said she wouldn’t let my daughter down, her bday is next week so my proceeds are going towards a party after spring break! She even said oh sorry my dad is in the ICU for heart surgery I let her slide, finally another posher I trust told me NO your loosing money & that’s not fair! I was upset I needed that sale why do that?
adesignersecret
Hi!!!
Sometimes customer will “like” an item to mark if for later. I had someone do this… and a week and a half later, she made the purchase! :)
ixchel47
Haley, I freaking love this!!!! You do your thing girl, I just might follow your lead because the BS and low Ballers need to stop! I am right there with you I would rather give my clothes to a women’s shelter than sell for a literal $1. Good job!
mommyof2galz
Can I please use this all I’ve been getting is scammers and being new to Poshmark. They got my hopes up, thinking that I’ll be able to put food on the table when all along it was a scam and I have been crying all day like an idiot.
kipjohnson632
@haleygall8 ... "DONT LIKE THE ITEM IF YOU DONT WANT TO BUY!!" ... Your Prechin to the Choir ! ! ... Since Poshmark Decided to Become an AUCTION Site and Has PARTNERED w/ Goodwill ... The Site Has Turned to SHIZZ ... Fake*Book Mktplce Rejects and Buyers Asking For 50% - 60% - 75% More With The Offers They Send! Mer*Cari ONLY Allows Offers Sent to Sellers of 5% - 10% and 15% is the Cap ... No Wonder Poshmark is Shutting Down Operations in Some Areas of the World!
tresuretrove111
@a_special_t same. I always answer questions. I pulled an item out for an odd question just so I could answer. They didn’t buy.
haleygall8
@tammygundaker yep that is why i stopped doing that! You will either know or not if you want to buy something by all the details and pics i post. Not going to waste the time going through all of the stuff to check a minor detail on something! Good luck to you with sales!
mamav27
Say it louder!!! 👏🏽 👏🏽
jermott1015
@haleygall8 I really like that.
jermott1015
Thank you for the share, I returned the favor. I really like your messages, but one of my pet peeves is when items are placed in bundles or even one item in a bundle and just leave it there. I’ll reach out to see if they’re interested in the bundle. No response.
