I had two items for sale on the Poshmark site in ********************* Sandals for $540 and a *************** (***) handbag for $700 - see "My Sales - Poshmark" file attached.The *** bag sold on June 12, 2024 and the bag was shipped out to Poshmark who then shipped them to the buyer. The buyer received them on June 13, 2024 and my earnings of $560 were released to me via the Poshmark app.On May 22, 2024, I purchased a pair of Christian **** designer sandals from Relux Shop for $440 - receipt and screenshot of their site is attached. Relux claimed that these sandals were authentic Made in *****. I received my sandals and they did not fit me - too wide - so I decided to list them on Poshmark to see if I could recoup my $440. I listed them and the sandals were purchased for $540 on June 12, 2024 by @xgoldenclosetx and based on this I would have received $432 back which would be close to break even. I shipped the sandals to Poshmark per their instructions via **** on June 12th. On June 14th, I received an email from Poshmark that the sandals could NOT be authenticated, that they cancelled the sale and that they would be returning the sandals back to me. The buyer reached out to me and I notified her that I had apparently be duped by Relux and that the sale was cancelled by Poshmark. The problem - no money was sent to me or exchanged hands for the sale of the sandals since the shoes were never shipped to the buyer. Instead, after the order was cancelled by Poshmark, they posted a negative balance on my account of -$538.75 on June 13, 2024 which cancelled out the sale for the *** Handbag for $560 because Poshmark posted a negative amount, it now shows I will only receive $21.25 and have lost over $500. I have emailed and reached out to Poshmark with no response. The **** sandals were received back from Poshmark on June ************************************************************************************************* of $560 for the *** bag.Business response

I sold a ring on June 6. Poshmark sent me a mailing label, which is the norm. However, the buyer messaged me that she had a change of address. She gave me her new address. I contacted Poshmark support on June 7. I asked what I needed to do. my question was answered right away and the support person asked me for my purchase number, which I supplied right away. He did not get back to me until yesterday, June 13. In the interim, I brought the purchase and the mailer to the post office and they were kind enough to give me another Label with her new address. However, I had another purchaser that I was sending out that day as well and the mail person put them both on the same receipt, but with different tracking numbers. I took a picture of the first customers tracking number and sent it to her in the conversation portion of Poshmark Product was delivered on June 11. on June 13, the support person sent me a new mailing label. But I had already sent out the product on June 8. Purchaser had already received it. I sent this information to the support person, who obviously did not read all my nine emails that I sent Regarding this issue. He has not gotten back to me as of now. And two other customer support people told me that they were not gonna help me since I already had somebody on it. I tried to write an email to the **** however the website wanted me to pay for that information. there was a phone number which I called that stated they do not have customer support over the phone and that you have to contact customer support through email. This is truly unacceptable in this day and age! How can a multi-million dollar company not have live agents to help resolve matters. I hope you can help me as I am frustrated beyond belief. Thank you!Business response

***********************psmy issue has been revolved, however, it never should have gone this far. I pleaded with Poshmark to get involved, but was always referred back to the original support person. This took almost 3 weeks for him to get this resolved and if I were a higher up in the company, I would definitely make changes. Too many disgruntled ******* will be the downfall of this company eventually.

I purchased a pair of crop jeans new with tags. When they arrived they were the wrong pair I messaged Poshmark and the seller with pictures to show it was a different item. Poshmark sent me a return label on May 29 I mailed them back to the seller on May 30 the seller received them back June 3. That same day day I received another return label from Poshmark June 3. I messaged them and told them I sent them back with the first return label and they had already arrived back to the seller. No response. A few days later I get an email saying my return is about to expire and I would loose my refund. Again I message them back telling them I already mailed them back with the first label. No response again. I try messaging the seller so she could inform them they were received she messaged on the conversation link that she did receive them so I invited Poshmark to join our conversation Just sent back a Thanks for inviting me and no other response. Today I got another email saying since I didnt send the item back within the allotted time I was loosing my refund and they were sending the money to the seller. Now the seller has the item back and my money. I would like my money back. Thank youBusiness response

I purchased an item 16 days ago. The seller shipped the item the following day and I had an estimated delivery date of June 1st, 2024. It is now 10 days past the estimated delivery date. I still have not received my item. I reached out to customer support on Friday and they expected me to wait 10 additional days, after tracking stopped which would have been nearly a month since I ordered the item. The problem is I have had continuous tracking so they just keep pushing out the date of when they will do something. They have no customer facing policy on what they will do for a package that never arrives. This package has spent 2 weeks bouncing around between multiple facilities in 2 states. It got to the regional facility within 1 hour of my home just to be sent back to the origin state, 2 states away. I have no expected delivery date and I reached out to customer service again today upon seeing the item is back at the facility of origin to see if they would help me, but instead I was met with silence. This company is trying to scam me out of the money I paid without delivery of the product. Its clear that they hope by continuing to push the date out that they hope that I will forget about the issue. That wont be happening. I want a refund, and I want it done in a timely manner. Not a month after I ordered an item with 1-3 days shipping. Should this not get resolved I have all the evidence I need to file a chargeback, which I know will harm this company more than them just issuing a refund. I dont want to have to use that route, but considering the lack of communication and their lack of willingness to help, I will do what is necessary.Business response

I sold my extremely expensive sauna to a buyer on Poshmark around a month ago.I purchased it for around $2000 and sold it as is and used for less than $500 expecting to be compensated due to the Posh Protect Policy. I did my job and shipped the item and Poshmark said to email them 5/27 and then they delayed the time frame in order to avoid paying by stating "they need additional time to investigate and have contacted the ***** as if to say that gives them an excuse to delay paying me. To this date, despite being a regularly selling Ambassador, they have NOT PAID ME A CENT for shipping the very expensive item to the Buyer.Business response

I bought a bracelet from a seller on Poshmark on May 22 2024. I received the wrong item, a pair of earrings, and someone else received my bracelet. When I contacted the seller she explained the orders got accidentally switched. I contacted Poshmark and the emailed me a shipping label to ship the earrings to the right person and vice versa. I mailed her earrings and she received hers in May 30 according to **** tracking. I never received my bracelet. When I contacted the seller she never resolved the issue. I have tried to contact Poshmark over and over the past week with no response. I spent $49.77 and need my money back. This is poor business practice to not even contact me about this. The order number is 664c691b00deabd35d60ece3.Business response
