Ship $1,100+ in Sales on Poshmark With Me! See What Sold FAST & For a GREAT Profit! $34 ASP!

[@Mcthriftzie]

Hey guys! Just wanted to check in and say that my sales in the days following the filming of this video have been very slow, but I do think this could be attributed to several reasons beyond the new fee structure. First and foremost, I know a lot of us have been extremely concerned about our fellow Americans and their safety regarding the recent hurricanes. As a native Houstonian, I know how terrifying it can be and my heart goes out to anyone dealing with this currently. Online shopping is not the priority right now. I also have not listed anything new in the last few days which always leads to slower sales. Only time will tell how these changes made by Poshmark will actually affect sales, but for now I will be sticking to my normal work routine and hoping for the best. If you are in the southeast, please stay safe and take care. My thoughts and prayers are with you 🫶

[@victoriahinchcliff6396]

I was thinking the same as well as the election being close

@@Mcthriftzie thank you :) just got through Milton and feeling very fortunate that the worst thing that happened was our baseboards starting leaking in water on one side of our house... other than that all good 👍 thanks again for your videos and you being your calm self 😉

[@UpMarketSwank]

Hoping this is the case, only because it has been incredibly slow for me too. I am a Posh Ambassador II and list consistently. October one of my best months until it came to a screeching halt a week ago. It's been like a seller's worst week in late summer. And it all started the day these new Buyer Protection Fees - 5.99% of the TOTAL sale which now includes tax, shipping and then on top of that an extra $1,$2 or $3 for the buyer. So here it is, 7 days later, with only 2 sales which is unheard of this time of year. I also sell on eBay too under another name but grateful to still see sales there. But as you said, I think worries about the upcoming election, the economy and the two hurricane disasters are understandably...really overshadowing things. :(

[@jenniferraybaud8827]

Thank you for being such a lovely role model, in business and beyond. You are a class act, Mackenzie.

[@SideStreetMarket]

I am in Florida and I too felt the slow sales week I will say though I had one one buyer that requested I cancel their order because they didn’t know about the processing fee. They said they were not informed didn’t agree with it and wanted the sale cancelled.

[@SweeterThanHoney22]

Buyers should never pay a fee for basic customer service or so called “buyer protection.”

[@princesabonita79]

especially when buyers on PM already HAD buyer protection, like they could return something if it was not as described or if something got lost/damaged in transit.

As a top seller on poshmark for 15 years, I have to agree. It’s good that for us as sellers to make more money but it’s definitely unfair to the buyers. It’s not ok. Poshmark is just a greedy little company.

[@Mcthriftzie]

I agree, I wish we just saw a reduction in fees on the seller's side with no added fee for the buyer, but I guess poshmark felt it was necessary 🤷‍♀️

You are so positive about the change. I see others complaining. It seems like your sales are always strong and you have the best inventory, love your videos!! Much love!!

[@Lirelivres]

I just noticed the shipping “discount” feature, if you click on one of your listings, it will say “get $5.95 shipping from this closet” so, if you send an offer, with discounted shipping, it will be taken out of your earnings, but if you send an offer without discounted shipping, they still get $5.95 shipping, so, start sending the offers without shipping discount, at least that’s what I understand, if anyone else has a different understanding, please leave a comment. Thank you! 9:24

[@mandunsekpongthriftfinds]

From my understanding don’t send discounted shipping because you already have the $5.95 shipping. When you send offer just put no shipping offer.

[@la6136]

I already had discounted shipping on all my listings before the change and Poshmark is still covering the fees. Same for when I send offers with $5.95 discounted shipping they don’t charge me.

[@heatherblevins4045]

⁠@@la6136so do you just make an offer with no shipping discount because it defaults to Poshmark giving the $5.95 shipping?

[@UpMarketSwank]

@@la6136 hmm that can't be so. You might just be seeing it rolled in with the other fees. Its very sneaky. Are you a Posh Ambassador?

[@Lirelivres]

My sales stopped after the fees, I think they are pretty bad because the mail already covers your packages if something happens to them, the insurance is included with the postage, so if a package gets lost they pay you and poshmark doesn’t take the money until the buyer accepts the item, so this is (bologna) please excuse my lenguaje, I received a very low offer and the buyer was so kind to explain to me why and it is because of the poshmark fees, I don’t know whats going to happen, I already wrote to poshmark about it, if we all poshmark sellers unite, we can make an impact, at least that’s what I think

[@bottomviewfarm7800]

I haven't had any sales since the change and as a buyer, the fee change prevented me from placingan order. The fee was an additional $20. 😳 I sadly had to pass on the offer.

[@thepinkhippieco]

I have had only 2 sales 😭 which is way down from my average!

[@bottomviewfarm7800]

@thepinkhippieco I actually just ordered a $13 sweater. I was thinking shipping was discounted, but it wasn't. For that $13 sweater, I paid over $25. That's Crazy. $8 shipping AND $5 buyer fee?? That's insane. When I was placing my order I noticed that you don't see the breakdown of your whole order cost anymore. That's terrible. As a buyer, I'm not shopping here anymore. It's awfully expensive for "discount" clothing. And no fault to sellers. I'm a seller too. 😭

[@BlackBeauty-yl8uq]

I just told someone that most buyers are not aware of the hidden fees because it’s charged in a way where you have to do an extra click to see that.

[@bottomviewfarm7800]

@BlackBeauty-yl8uq Yes! AND I had money in my account. I don't know if that is different than paying from your bank account, but I did not receive a break down of my order until After it was placed. I was expecting it to be less than $20, but it was more than $25. Crazy.

[@AMorgan-cw8pb]

I did the math on this multiple times and figured something out regarding the new fee structure. We as sellers actually make less money on average on lower priced items than if it had been the set 20% fee (I sold a $7 pair of socks and noticed I made less with the new structure than the set 20%). The break-even + point is somewhere in between the $20 - $30 sale price where sellers make money. I think Mckenzie you will be ok bc most of your items are within that range, but I have a lot of kids' clothes in my closet that don't sell for much, so I am going to have to change my tactics going forward on what I'm going to sell so that it makes sense for me.

[@Mcthriftzie]

This is good to know! Thank you for your comment 🫶

[@thriftadventure]

It’s my understanding that if you send an offer with $5.95 shipping, Poshmark covers the difference. If you send any other shipping discount, they do not cover any of it. I appreciate your perspective on the fee change and I’m glad to see your sales have been good! ❤️ The change really threw me for a loop!

[@sammonicuslux]

If you are a POSH ambassador, you do nothing. It is automatic. Do NOT send out a postage discount. You should see the banner in every one of your listings offering discount shipping.

[@thriftadventure]

Hi Amy - so this includes offers to likers? That's what I understood, but a couple of people have said that Poshmark made them pay the $2.02 difference. My sales slowed down after these changes and I've only sold something when a counteroffer was made to me, so I haven't had a chance to check myself.

[@melissarowe8998]

My sales have tanked. They were bad before. But worse now. It’s q4, this should be our best season. It’s bad.

[@BlackBeauty-yl8uq]

I won’t be tanked for her because she has a wider audience and also lots of items on her poshmark. But it is a problem for many sellers now. I am a top seller on Poshmark for the last 15 years and can tell you it’s going to be bad for us once folks start to find out. It’s still new so many buyers don’t have a clue.

[@mellybean85]

I agree with you about the changes and I am happy to hear another reseller comment the same. Also new comers to Poshmark will not even know about the changes as soon as we all move on. Thank you so much for talking about this in a positive manner. I love you channel.

[@GeertjeJ651]

You said you never go to the mall and I don’t either but now I’m thinking maybe we resellers should go and kind of do what Jack and Ryan did and do a deep dive into what’s selling to the masses, for lack of a better word. I watch a lot of Milan Streetwear vids. The clothing people wear are a bit out of my reach but it’s sure good for learning about silhouettes and the latest trends. After a while you start to see many of the same pieces. Just thinking out loud.

[@Mcthriftzie]

I agree!!

[@doreenstarling9240]

I had my first experience of a buyer backing out of a full-price sale because it went from $40 for the item to $56 at checkout. Thankfully the next day she sent an offer, and I accepted. However, this was after I had discounted my entire closet by 10%. I'll be very curious to hear how it goes for you and other top sellers I watch on KZbin. I am hearing mixed reports so far. Also, the 1097 is no longer available on the USPS online store. I saw that they were discontinuing them several weeks ago, so I stocked up. Unfortunately that's the box I use the most. Please keep us posted!

[@LisaReynolds-gp6zn]

I do think running KZbin videos probably helps your sales.

[@Megquil]

KZbin is SO time consuming though that I’m sure all of the time she’s investing into her channel (instead of strictly reselling) would end up canceling out any slight advantage in sales coming from Social Media exposure! I’m a Social Media Marketing Director for my full time job so that’s why I wanted to throw in my take on this 😄

[@Mcthriftzie]

@@Megquil ^very true, I’d make a lot more money by just reselling alone haha. Yes my listings sell faster because of my channel, but I’m not able to list nearly as much as I could if I were not on KZbin so it really does even out 🤷🏼‍♀️ I continue to do YT because I enjoy it as a creative outlet and because I enjoy connecting with others.

My sales had slowed for the last couple of months and now very slow. I haven’t been listing much but working on my current inventory. One thing I have noticed that buyers offers are coming in at at least 50% off requests and I completely think this is due to new fee structure. I usually get things sold for 20-30 percent off….but agreed much more things to worry about right now. Unfortunately yesterday my neighbor 2 doors down had a house fire and lost everything including their pup. Luckily everyone else got out safely but it just really makes you re-assess things. Anyways thanks as always for your videos. Love them!

I would definitely suggest to keep the PosherVA and just upping the amount that it is sharing/relisting/sending offers!

[@hermionesfinds8215]

I haven't watched any of the Canadian youtubers on the fee changes, but as a Canadian seller, I don't see this ending well at all if it is implemented up here. Most of us don't have access to the low bins type pricing the US has, so we already have to price things higher. Add to that, the $13.50 shipping costs, and the fact that Canadians can pay upwards of 15% tax on shipping and purchases, adding another 6% to the price for a buyers fee couldn't possibly be good for anyone. Perhaps the changes won't happen here, but I think it is time to start really focussing on other platforms. It appears that Poshmark wants to limit themselves to the US only. 😕😕

[@maryh.6902]

shipping discounts only work for BUY NOW, and in this Beta test It only works for ambassadors, both buyers and sellers, not everyone qualifies, as there are buyers and sellers who are not ambassadors, they do not have the privilege of the discount or the fee, therefore if you send an offer with a shipping discount, keep doing it. From PK it depends on who qualifies or not, if you send offers manually you can check who is an ambassador or not, normally if someone is going to buy, they will counteroffer you for the offer because that person does not benefit from anything. That is why there is the other shipping discount, it only qualifies if you are active weekly listed, therefore you will have a discount on shipping in BUY NOW, whether or not you are an ambassador, you will have a discount only in BUY NOW.

[@Mcthriftzie]

I don't think the buyer has to be an ambassador to get the discount in shipping but I could be wrong 🤔

[@SerafimHouliaras]

The shipping discount is only Posh Ambassadors. Since the change, before sending an offer I have first checked to see how many listings the buyer has (basically seeing if they're a seller too) and so far none of them have had any, so they're not going to get the discount. So I send the shipping discount too.

[@gurgonebad]

I buy and sell on Poshmark. For me, I always enjoy buying from Poshmark because it is cheaper than buying stuff brand new. But with the new change, it really doesn't make sense to buy from Poshmark anymore. For example, I bought a used snowsuit for my baby. The price was listed for $35 but when everything is said and done, it is $51 total. as buyer you're already taking a risk buying on poshmark as items are not returnable. Additionally, you're buying a used item. With this new fee structure I might as well just pay an extra $5 or $10 and buy the item new. I'm just really upset with the new fee structure. It doesn't benefit sellers or buyers at all.

[@Mcthriftzie]

I agree! I believe Poshmark has decided to make changes to it though!

[@maryh.6902]

If you don't list weekly or you are not an ambassador, you don't share your closet or you have old lists from 5 or 10 years ago, don't expect to have any benefit from anything, that is a dead closet.

[@Laurencausey]

Mercari dropped seller fees to $0 not long ago and added the buyer transaction fee. My sales there were not really impacted. I think it will affect people who sell cheaper saturated items but I don’t think people who curate their closets with higher quality fabrics and brands will have a problem. Like you said, people will spend when they want something. I personally have the best results on eBay, but I don’t think posh sellers have anything to worry about.

[@Mcthriftzie]

I fully agree with this and am really hoping for the best.

[@Mcthriftzie]

Haha I have been doing this too but just changed it 😩

[@UpMarketSwank]

Even though Posh Ambassadors have that $5.95 shipping banner displayed on top of their closet, I honestly think that potential buyers click LIKE and forget that was being offered on a closet by the time they get the offer via Posher VA. I ALWAYS offered $5.95 shipping before. NOW all the buyer sees is an offer for the discounted item price but NO mention or reminder that they will ALSO get the discounted $5.95 shipping. I feel this is having a big impact on sales. So there probably thinking WOW, as a Buyer I now have to pay these ridiculous Buyer Protection Fees plus an extra 1.2, 3 dollars and THIS seller isn't even offering me discounted shipping! NEXT! It was absolutely terrible timing that Poshmark made these changes right at the beginning Q4, just when two hurricanes were about to hit and one month from a Presidential election. 😥

[@angelalittle7522]

Shipping is increasing at USPS so I guess the fee structure was inevitable. I wish they would have given us a little more time to adjust, but my early thoughts are that we will earn more money.

[@sunsoulco]

Please keep in mind a lot of buyers didn't even know about this. I did a live to talk about this and had 174 people. The majority of them had no clue. And Poshmark also added the discounted shipping for all Ambassadors at the same time. Which I believe "masked" some of that additional cost. And Poshmark buried the fee in with the taxes only the informed buyers knew of this or how to find it. I think as more buyers become aware of this, this will start to show a significant downturn for even those still making sales. 😕

I did not get any emails from Poshmark informing me of the changes. I also did not sell a single item this last week.

If I select $5.95 shipping when I'm manually sending offers, it deducts the $2.02 from estimated earnings. If I send the offer with no discounted shipping, I'm not getting the deduction, and the buyer is getting the $5.95 shipping...so I would remove the discounted shipping if i was using Posher VA.

[@whiterobin01]

[@MB-km5hh]

I truly believe there are going to be less buyers after the change, so you really won’t be making more in the long run. I think a buyer slightly older than you is much more aware of fees and won’t have it. Glad your sales are still going well though.

[@staceybarnett2385]

THEY are charging buyers fees to offer a chance to return an item if not correct. It is beyond terrible. I bet some buyers don't realize the extra fees being added yet. This same fee structure has killed Mercari. Poshmark is being very greedy. Their profits have pretty much doubled. It is going to ruin Posh.

[@BlackBeauty-yl8uq]

Buyers will not find out now but they will eventually. It’s a bit hidden with the taxes so they’ll have to do the extra work to see it. Poshmark is a greedy company. I have been selling on the website for 15 years now and it’s all about money for them.

[@Muttaqee36]

Poshmark is paying for Shipping $5.95 until end of this year only due to the change with the 5.99% etc.! Everybody's Sales will go down! Your sales and you were lucky a lot of Buyer don't know yet and it was the first weekend again you were lucky you will see!

Don’t send discounted shipping. If you do, it overrides their $5.95 shipping offer & you will pay for it.

[@laurelyeager1]

I send the offers out with the 5.95 shipping because I want them to see that they are getting the 5.95 shipping. It looks like it will take it out of your earnings but I've checked every time I had a sale and it's never come out of my earnings.

Thanks for the info.

Mercari has done a nosedive and hasnt recovered...been quite a few months now. Buters should NEVER be charged

[@andrearobbins6332]

My sales are up too! While everyone is complaining, I'm just listing more lol

[@luvmypack]

I like the change actually. Like you said, it gives you more wiggle room. People that are saying it is the worst and it has tanked their sales are being a little dramatic at this point. It’s like watching the stock market daily, you need to look at it over time. Also loving the $5.95 shipping! Wonder how much they will want to charged for that after the end of the year.

[@Mcthriftzie]

Yes exactly, it will take time to know for sure. And also if sellers list less because they are now less motivated, that will contribute to slower sales but the fee structure change will be blamed. I am going to try to keep everything as close to the same as possible.

[@audfashionfinds]

Agreed! We have to give it time to level out. 🩷

Makes me no difference if we make a little more money if there are no sales. It’s unfair to buyers and will be devastating to sellers. My sales have been decimated. I always had daily sales. No more.

[@Mcthriftzie]

Mine have really declined also! I believe they are working to change the new fees though.

[@msm597]

@@Mcthriftzie I hope so!

[@sammonicuslux]

Posh offers the discounted 5.95 shipping automatically until the last day in december. HOWEVER, any offer your VA send out will be paid by you! Turn it off until Dec 31st. Remember, you are paying seller fees or 1,2,3 dollars plus 5.999% on sales tax AND the postage. So is the buyer.

[@Mcthriftzie]

Yes! That is why I was saying it's hard for me to quickly calculate how much my projected fees will be now because I don't know the sales tax beforehand - that is the part that I dislike. I wish it was just a percentage of the sale price only.

[@sammonicuslux]

​@@Mcthriftzieyes I feel like I need to get a math degree to figure this out 😂

Hey McKenzie! If you give discount shipping, you're paying for all of it unfortunately!

[@SheilaHammond-uv9je]

No not true. I was not charged for the discount shipping fee $5.95 even though I included in my offer.

[@jjoannej]

@SheilaHammond-uv9je That's because you offered the same $5.95 discount Posh is Laready offering. For example, if you give $4.99 or free shipping instead of the $5.95 that Posh is offering, you pay for the whole shipping discount instead of maybe paying the difference from $5.95... So far, I'm not a huge fan with Posh's new policy.

[@UpMarketSwank]

@@jjoannej I was offering $5.95 shipping and am a Posh Ambassador II. They were charging me $2.02 extra because I offered it separately. I went back and forth with Poshmark Support about this and they told me NOT to offer any discount at all, otherwise I would pay the difference between the $7.97 and $5.95.
