Buying from Poshmark?

Sue98 — Fri, 11 Jan 2019 12:58:41 GMT

I only recently heard of Poshmark. I am a huge fan of Fossil purses, and my niece told me about Poshmark. I am only interested in buying new purses, and I did find a fairly large selection, but I'm hesitant to order, as I don't know much about Poshmark, and some reviews I read were negative, as people have been duped and were sold knockoff brands.

Does anyone here have an experience buying from Poshmark? Are the sellers reliable and trustworthy?

I have bought and do buy from Poshmark.

The company and sellers have been reliable and trustworthy, in my case.

Due to less satisfying experience, here’s what I would do differently:

ask for measurements before plunking down your payment

ask specifically if there are stains or defects

Poshmark has an overall guarantee that if you receive an item that doesn’t meet the promised description, the company will refund your purchase.

Never shopped from them, but we have a Fossil store at our mall. My sister has at least one of their bags.

Fossil has their own site.

Purchased a variety of items from Poshmark. Only one incident where I paid for the item and never received it. Kept trying to contact the seller with no luck. Reported it and received an instant credit.

I purchased a bag from Poshmark about a year ago and was very happy. What I liked best was that they didn't release the money to the seller until I had received the item and confirmed that it was as represented and I wanted to keep it.

I wouldn't hesitate to buy something again.

I buy and sell on Poshmark. I find it super easy, but agree, if you want more pics of something, just ask

Aboit Fossil bags.....When I worked at Dillard's many moons ago, we sold Fossil bags. They were pretty expensive at that time. I never purchased one of them.
