  I ordered from this company. After placing in order my package was lost or stolen. I contacted the business and tried to get a resolution and they took weeks to respond. And after responding they told me to contact **** although the package is ensured by Poshmark. And now they are completely ignoring me.

  Upon further investigation, our shipping partners confirmed this package was properly delivered through geolocational data and details from the facilities and postal employees involved. With the information theyve provided, Poshmark has no reason to believe the package was not delivered. Poshmark is not responsible for packages that have been lost or stolen after delivery by the postal service. If the user believes their package was stolen, we recommend filing a report with local law enforcement. They may also file a claim with their renters or homeowners insurance, as these situations typically fall under their coverage.

  I sold a piece of clothing on poshmark on September 19th for 140 US dollars, and I signed for it around September 27th, but I don't understand why they blocked my account. I wanted to use the balance to buy the shoes I like, but I couldn't pay, and then I redeemed it to my bank on October 26th. poshmark promised that we would receive the redemption in three days, but it has been more than three days, and I have not received my redemption. My poshmark account is @*********, please return my money to me

  I came home on 10/30/2023 to find a package at my door. Upon opening it I discovered it was a dress from POSHMARK, which I had never ordered. I immediately contact POSHMARK and began to investigate. It seems that an order was placed on 10/19/2023 for this $580 dress. I did not order this item on the 10/19 and in fact, was not available that day due to attendance at a conference. The dress is a size XS, listed as a wedding dress. I am not a size XS and have no intention of getting married (I am already married and 66)!I asked the seller for a refund, which was refused. I contacted POSHMARK support.poshmark.com to initiate a refund. The information I am able to find is that there is a 3 day window in which to request a refund. So far I have not received any further correspondence from Poshmark support, other than a form reply asking for the order number, which has been provided to them.I am at a loss as to how this purchase was initiated. While I have purchased through them in the past, I have not recently and have no recollection of EVER looking for or at a wedding dress!Poshmark has not responded to subsequent correspondence.

  Poshmark claims to have buyer protection if there is undisclosed damage or an item is not as described. I purchased an MCM ***** pack and it arrived smelling heavily of cigarette smoke. I was not aware that the item was exposed to constant smoke, nor was this disclosed. I contacted Poshmark for a refund but they said this isnt covered. Why not? It is undisclosed damage to an item that would have changed my decision in purchasing the ***** pack. I was mislead in making a purchase. Poshmark claims to protect its buyer but is not helping me.

  Complaint: 20804625
  
  I am rejecting this response because their response did not address the issue. They sent me an email merely saying that a refund will not be granted. They did not address the fact that the item did not properly disclose the damage (of the cigarette smell). Poshmark said they cannot identify the source of the odor, even though the item had pieces of tobacco in it, and the seller admitted she smokes after that fact by stating "you didn't ask me if I'm a smoker, and that's your fault for not asking." This needs to be reevaluated by Poshmark.
  

  All I ask is that Poshmark make this right since the seller sold me a poor quality item that was not described in full, specifically that she smokes and that her items smell like cigarette smoke. I have never returned anything before, nor do I have a history of attempting to make returns. From experience,Im seeing buyers are NOT protected as advertised.
  

  Poshmark is telling me to resell the item. Is it because they dont want to return the sellers commission, and they're pushing me to resell the item to receive yet another commission? Do I withhold the information and not tell buyers that the item smells like smoke?Is that what Poshmark is about now? Being deceitful and just making sales? Consider the situation, the poor quality item I received,this buyer protection that you Poshmark advertises, yet no one from the business can help me..

  Upon further review of order #***a9cdbacb8193386b9a06d, our ****************** team thoroughly investigated the claim, as well as compared the provided photo proof with the listing and any comments.
  
  Under our Posh Protect Policy, Poshmark will give a full refund if the item does not match the listing description. However after further investigation by our team, Poshmark has found that the item is as described. Due to the subjectivity of odor and not being able to determine the source we were unable to approve the case. Details of what is covered under our policy can be found here: *************************************************;

  I listed a Givenchy bag on sale. I purchased the bag about 10 years ago directly from a retailer, so I know it was 100% authentic. Given that it's been so long, I didn't have the receipt or paperwork left and listed the bag for $500, which would go through Poshmark's physical inspection to confirm my the bag's authenticity. On 09/07/2023 a buyer made me an offer purchased the bag for $425. This price was lower than required for Poshmark's inspection, but the buyer knew that when making the offer. Upon receipt, the buyer spoke on the phone with Givenchy and gave them the serial number listed on the bag, and informed me that Givenchy was unable to confirm the bag's authenticity based on the serial number. The buyer asked to return the bag and Poshmark agreed, despite not having actual confirmation that the bag was inauthentic (just an inability to confirm over the phone). Poshmark issued the buyer a return lable, which had the wrong address on it (despite my account being updated with my correct address). The return was delivered to a different state and at this point, Poshmark let me know that they refuse to help me get my bag back because it is counterfeit. They completely stopped responding to messages from both me and the buyer. Thankfully, the buyer was able to help me and I was able to get my bag back after nearly 2 months, and money spent on a shipping label with the correct address. The fact that Poshmark completely disregarded me as a customer and refused to help me because my "bag was counterfeit" despite having ZERO confirmation of this, and never physically or otherwise inspecting the actual bag is outrageous. They have an authentication service for a reason, but if no physical inspection happened, they have no proof that the bag was counterfeit and I expect to be helped as a customer. I came very close to losing the bag, and with it hundreds of dollars, were it not for the goodwill of the buyer.

  I am rejecting this response because:

  Poshmark customer support keeps saying the same thing - that they did not help me because my item isn't authentic. Once again, they never inspected the item, so have no way of knowing whether it's authentic or not. They offered to reach out to the buyer to see if she will be willing to return it, but she already did. I am requesting a refund for the shipping label I paid for, and they are once again refusing to help.

  Company's platform allowed for scam products to be posted. Due to this, I was unable to find a replacement. I am charging Poshmark not only the refund, but the cost to replace the item they promised me. With the amount of fake profiles that I was able to find within a few minutes, this feels like a scam to collect personal information and credit card information under false pretenses.

  Poshmark appreciates you bringing this matter to our attention. A refund in the amount of $75.94 was issued to the user on 10/28/23 to the users original form of payment. 

  Refunds are immediately issued by Poshmark, but can take up to 1 full billing cycle for the users payment institution to reflect the amount on the users statement.

  Please note that Poshmark prohibits the sale of replica + counterfeit goods. This includes: any listing that bears the brand or logo of a company or designer, but was not made or authorized by that company or designer or using a companys name or trademark in way that *** confuse buyers about the item's origins, or confuses buyers into believing that you or the item is affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the trademark owner.

  I sold an Hermes luxury bag on Oct 1st, 2023 in Order ID: ************************. I utilized the Poshmark supplied **** priority mail shipping label tracking number ********************** and it was scanned by **** on Oct 2nd, 2023. Tracking number delivery receipt shows buyer received the Hermes bag on 16 Oct 2023. ***** claimed that it took too long for **** to deliver the bag and opened a return case on 17 Oct 2023. Poshmark has no control over ****, shipping and transit delays are not Poshmarks fault, which is understood by most. There still hasnt been a response to the return case but instead, Poshmark cancelled the order on 20 Oct, four days after the buyer had received the bag. The buyer stated she received the bag, yet Poshmark still cancelled the order and my funds were not released to me. This is theft. ***** received my luxury Hermes bag gifted to her by Poshmark for free and Poshmark has stolen the money from me. The buyer was allowed to circumvent the return process and now has my Hermes bag and money was returned to her. Poshmark policy is that the return case is to be approved and a shipping label generated for the buyer to send the item back. Please return my funds to me as the bag was delivered per the Poshmark label tracking number delivery receipt and buyer now has the item. Attaching shipping label with tracking number showing order number and tracking shows the item was delivered.

  I sold a purse which was delivered on Oct 23. Poshmark is suppose to release payment on 3de day and today is Oct 27 the 4th day, and I still never received my payment for delivered purse. I contacted poshmark 4 times but no one responded. There are no phone numbers that I can call to contact customer support. This is all that I can think of to get my money. Also, side note, it looks like poshmark is taking out 30% from my total. Purse sold for $27 and I'm suppose to receive $21. I just thought I would make that known in case anyone else was thinking of selling on poshmark.
