Hi! I'm Virginia. Friends call me Ginger. My closet is named after my pittie princess Ginger Dawg — my husband named her. Lol). Sadly, Ginger passed away recently but I like seeing her photo every time I come here, so…. ❤️. It’s been a bittersweet year, as April ‘23 marks SIX years I’ve been cancer free!! WOOOOOOOOOH🥳 🥳
I am officially a Senior Citizen now, so I guess I should be wise and have great advice. Waiting for something deep to swell up within my brain. Waiting…. Oh... we make a bit of $ along the way that's great -- but it IS deposits into Life's Karma Bank that truly matter and defines us (wow…. VERY Deep thoughts!). I thought I was gonna have to make something up on the fly, but that one is very true.
I love meeting fellow Poshers — particularly those who love talking about our furry kids. 😆.

SO nice to be offered a bit of hand-holding, Vicky! I have been reading up and trying to figure things out before venturing too much. Taking notes and getting ideas. Have LOTS of stuff to list. My mom was a shopaholic and major fashionista. She's gone now, but her "stuff" remains. I love the "feel" of Poshmark -- QUITE different than EBay -- and how folks are encouraged to reflect their personality and socialize. LOVE your furry baby pics and items too!

@vicky_ymcagirl @donnaw1 I hope I'm getting this right. You both greeted me and offered assistance, so I'm hoping this will work. I have tried to text Poshmark with questions several times with canned remarks but then there is NO follow-up. Is there ANY way to talk to live people? Is there some forum where I can talk with other Poshers easily?
gingerdawgg
@vicky-ymcagirl @donnaw1 I see the sippin party and meet-ups; but I'm talking just an online forum where I might ask questions... Do we as sellers HAVE to sell our things via bundles? I was looking at those "overweight" amounts and can see where that could SERIOUSLY cut into profits extremely quickly. LOL But then.. I have yet to sell a single thing, so I'm not sure why I'm worried. That leads me to my second question.
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl @donnaw1Do folks actually sell much on here? Maybe I just haven't hit on the right demographic yet... or maybe my stuff isn't marketable here... or maybe my prices are too high... I don't know, but when I post clothes on EBay, they sell pretty darned quickly. I just really liked the "tone" of Poshmark so I thought this might be more "me"...
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcasgir @donnaw1 I'm engaging... I'm sharing... I'm following. But I aint' selling.... Anyways... apologies if this isn't how we are supposed to communicate. I'm fumbling around trying to figure everything out here. It's a BIT overwhelming....
gingerdawgg
WHO'S bright idea was it to limit messages to 500 characters, for pity's sake! LOL
vicky_ymcagirl
Hi Ginger...emailing Posh is the only form of communication I know of... 😏 this is the only forum I've ever used so I have nothing else to compare it to. You did good communicating with us this way! 👍🏻

Welcome to poshmark ! :)
gingerdawgg
@herbiedog @jassieboo92 Thanks so much for the greetings. Sorry to for the delay. Trying to get used to sifting through comments and such!
thesaltypit
Oh my!! I absolutely adore your baby!! She's precious!! 😍😍
gingerdawgg
@luvabully3 Isn't she? Is that yours in your profile photo? SOOO sweet. Pibbles are dah best! I feature her wherever I can as an ambassador for the breed.
thesaltypit
@gingerdawgg Love the pibbles!
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl @donnaw1 I hope y'all don't mind a couple questions... When someone buys a bundle from us, is THAT bundle amount total what Posh charges their fees for, rather than for the individual items? Say the bundle is 2 $10 shirts and a $20 one, totalling $40. Posh takes 20% of $40 or are they doing the individual fees?
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl @donnaw1 Secondly, if it IS the bundle total, do folks ever just indicate items are for bundles only rather than to be sold separately? The $2.95 fee on under $10 items REALLY seem to add up. I want to be able to give folks a "deal" but when the amount gets low, that fee REALLY hurts... Ideas? I really appreciate.
sweetabell
@gingerdawgg 1). No you don't have to sell by the bundle. Up until last week a customer could only discuss a bundle via posts. Or go by our discount. Now they can build a bundle and then make an offer to us on the whole thin. With that being said, you want bundles always.
sweetabell
@gingerdawgg 2). No there is no way other than this to communicate but like this. 3). Weight ? I wouldn't give it a thought. I've packed more in a big box than should be allowed and it never made it to the 5 or 6 lb limit.
sweetabell
@gingerdawgg and posh gets 20% off total sold. Or if less than $10 automatically get 2.95. Are you here right now? Let me know and then click on your news feed and I will show you a few things.
sweetabell
@gingerdawgg let me know when you are here.
gingerdawgg
@donnaw1 Sorry I missed you. Actually untethered myself from the computer for a couple hours. Between Poshmark, EBay and Etsy, my dance card is always full these days.

Awwwww!! 🐾🐾 we had a pit ~ such sweet dogs! I think that when God made dogs ~ He had pits in mind! For their super-fun-enJOY-life-to-the-max attitudes! They've been given such a bad rap! 😔 happy ThanksGiving weekend 😘
purplearies
@gingerdawgg Hi I'm Kia! I would love for you to check out my closet when you have a chance 😊💞
gingerdawgg
Thanks so much for dropping by and leaving a bit of love, @karenjc223 and @purplearies!
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl @donnaw1 I've been selling pretty darned well since I whined. No bundles yet which still leaves the question: How does Poshmark charge fees for bundles? Do they charge per ITEM in the bundle or the bundle as a whole? (continued)
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl @donnaw1 (part 2 of 2) I'm just wondering, as some items (like earrings) are gonna be priced low (as in less than $5). If Poshmark takes $3 off the top of that... wow. But if I can say that such low items are good in a bundle, that would make it MUCH more reasonable to me, you know? Ideas? Thx!
karenjc223
@gingerdawgg
☺️🐾🐾😘
sweetabell
@gingerdawgg well, first, I wouldn't list anything for $5.00. Always leave yourself room for an offer. Bundles? They are sold 20% off total. Then of course anything under $10. Posh's commissions are a flat $2.95 I believe.
gingerdawgg
@donnaw1 Thanks for the quick reply. The $5 and under things are where my concern is. I have LOTS of cute costume earrings that would fall into that range. I'm wondering if I could stipulate that those are available in bundles only rather than to be bought separately. I'm not even sure if used earrings would be marketable, in all honesty. I'm sterilizing them in alcohol, but I know some folks may be concerned.
vicky_ymcagirl
@gingerdawgg hey Ginger! You have some good questions! 👍🏻 The lowest price I have is $8. Posh takes $3 off anything $15 and under, then 20% off above $15. I have some listings with 2 like items ( socks/bras/same size tops) already bundled. I'm always surprised folks will buy a $8 top & pay that $6 shipping instead of bundling! Hope that helps!
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl I was just trying to think of a way of working around that DARNED HIGH $3 fee for lower priced items. I'm thinking BOGO, pre-batched lots, and as an "extra gift" might be workable. I have a TON of scrubs. I only put a few on here and NO NIBBLES. NADA. Most are marked at $6. That would give me $3 and I still can't sell them. They're in excellent shape...
gingerdawgg
Shaking my head. Any lower and I feel like I'm giving them away. I wish there was ways of having different bundle discounts, you know? I don't want to offer 50% off everything, but I might be willing to do that on certain items. There's a lot I really love about Poshmark, though. Still trying to figure things out. Thanks for hand-holding. I really do feel overwhelmed, but I'm SELLING! (and buying!)
vicky_ymcagirl
@gingerdawgg maybe try bundling a couple of scrubs together? Look at these closets for any ideas ( my go to list! ☺️ ) ...and ask them anything!!
gingerdawgg
@vicky_ymcagirl Which closets?
vicky_ymcagirl
@gingerdawgg haha!!! The ones I didn't list!! 🙄😂

Welcome to Posh! I love your "Ginger Dawg"😄😚 it so nice to meet you and glad @vicky_ymcagirl introduced me. I'll share some of your things!

Hi Ginger,I am Cindy. I read the above above comments-I well remember feeling overwhelmed learning poshmark. I have been on here just over a year and still learning,lol. I would like to offer my 2 cents on pricing help. Lately I have been clicking on shop,then an item, say a top, then click the brand or size info,etc and then click on availability and see what like items you are wanting to list have sold for.
exwolfe
Also I like to look at items in others closets that may be similar to mine (brand etc) and share from those closest that have liked the item to hopefully get them to stop by your closet. One other thing I will ad is that I love to share with new compliant closets, so if you want shares returned you can stop by. You have a lovely closet and I wish you all the best with it:)

💚😽Hi Virginia! And hi Ginger! I love pitties!!! I'm Tari - welcome to Posh! You're going to love it here! 👠👢👗 I'll happily answer questions or offer advice if I can. Check @official_forum, @poshuniversity, or use the FAQ, for loads of information about Posh! 💚😽 So glad you've met Vicky @vicky_ymcagirl - she's a great friend and a great source of information. Thank you, Vicky, for the intro! 😽💚
gingerdawgg
@kwalden01 @angelbritton @exwolfe @tezza630 Thank ya'll so much for the hellos. I am really enjoying this aspect of Poshmark -- getting to know other folks. Quite different than EBay FER SURE! LOL I really appreciate the advice. I'll be sure to check out your closets.
maryl60
@gingerdawgg Oh my goodness! I fell into a group of pittie lovers!! 🐶💗 Glad to meet you gingerdawdd and everyone. I have a pittie princess too... he name is Dora Bell. The most loving, friendly dog I could ever hope for. Gingerdawgg you have a amazing closet, I hope you start selling a lot soon!
maryl60
@gingerdawgg I have found that the more you share your posts and other's posts, the more traffic you will get to your closet. Keep sharing! And when you see similar posts that are like your own, go and "follow" all the people that have liked that post. Good luck and give your precious pittie girl a belly rub from me! 😊
gingerdawgg
@mary60 So lovely to hear from a fellow pibble parent. Thanks so much for dropping by and the tip. I'm selling pretty regularly now and I'm slowly getting the hang of things. Admittedly, I was not so keen on the whole "negotiating" thing, but I think somewhere along in life I learned that asking for less was "rude".
gingerdawgg
@mary60 I'm slowly warming up to the idea, though. As for sharing? I LOVE the idea of paying it forward and do my best to do a share for share. Sure do wish it was easier to keep track, though!
gingerdawgg
@maryl60. Ooops the messages before this were for you. LOL Sorry. One wee missing "l" made all of the difference, apparently.

gingerdawgg
@msleslied1 Dog people are THE best. Always makes me smile when someone adds that things come from a "pet free environment" LIKE THAT IS A GOOD THING! LOL I do indeed do shares. Been a bit slower than usual to give back the love but I'm trying to set aside time each evening now to pay it forward!
msleslied1
@gingerdawgg Very sweet....thank you...girl just wanna have fun!!

We have a rescue bully named Clyde. He has blue Merle spotting. Wish I could share a photo with you. ♡♡♡♡♡ bullies. Best dogs around!!! Love the glasses too! Lol

💞🐶🐾💕 your pittie Ginger Dawg. She looks as precious as my Georgie Boy. 💖 that pittie smile, face & eyes that melt your ❤️.
gingerdawgg
@curvygirrrl @shojtes05 I love hearing from other pittie parents. Pibbles are THE absolute sweetest pups. It's ridiculous how misunderstood they are. Thanks for reaching out and sharing pibble love.

Adorabke clothes, I wish they were a size or 2 bigger. 💕😣

@opqueenbee8667 most were my moms -- the fashionista in the family. She was an itty bitty gal indeed!

@gingerdawgg 🌺😊
curvygirrrl
@gingerdawgg we should have a pebble mom posh group
gingerdawgg
@curvygirrrl What a GRRRRREAT idea! I don't know how we would even go about it. We could all feature our pibble babies and their stories as a sideline of our stores. I think, like SO many different groups, people are afraid of what they don't know. It's a lovely thing to share the truth about the breed.
gingerdawgg
@curvygirl (CONTINUED) It would make it a bit more "fun" for us too. I'm donating a percentage of my profits to a couple causes this year, including Pit Bull Rescue and Breast Cancer Research. I didn't advertise this as it's my sincere belief that charity is not meant to put us in the spotlight, you know? But I DO believe the breed really deserves to be in a positive spotlight and rescue groups SERIOUSLY need support. Mulling this idea over.

@artflower So nice to meet another pibble parent! Love your user id!
coachandtrunk
Hi Virginia! I always love to meet someone who loves their bully baby. I love your pics of your pitty princess. It's too funny, we call our girl, River, "princess" all the time. I'd love to have two, but the hubby thinks our cat would pack his bags a move out. Plus, I think Riv would not like having to share the attention. LOL
gingerdawgg
@coachandtrunk Sadly, Ginger has passed away. What is up with furry kids having such short lives? I miss her tremendously. My mom passed too and I now have her shitzu-poodle mix. Nobody can replace Ginger, but apparently my heart has room for everrrrrybofy! Lol
