The Problem with Posh
Even though Poshmark has gone far beyond what any other fashion app has succeeded in doing as both a thrift app as well as wholesale distribution, there are some unmistakable discrepancies that I’ve noticed as both buyer and seller. I’m not dedicating this entire blog to bashing the platform, of course, because like I said, it’s a very unique and even addictive app. If you’ve not opted to boycott the fashion app yet and still deciding whether or not to give it spin, I should probably tell you… there’s a problem with Posh.

Proudly Poshing
As a Poshmark seller and buyer for over a year now, I've come to find that there are some unwritten rules to the popular fashion platform that aren't entirely outlined in the policies and regulations provided by Poshmark admin and it's left a sour taste in the mouths of all those who've not had the privilege of getting a detailed manual on the "how to's" from both perspectives. With all the diversity of cultures and cultivation comes the adversity of personal conduct. We, as individuals, reserve the right to be respected but have the undefined responsibility to be respectful when it comes to gaining monetarily or otherwise. When in the heat of the moment, human nature will have us acting like gladiators battling to the death during the Roman empire over something as trivial as a snag in the seam of a shirt or unflattering fit from a pair highly coveted pants. So when it comes to the bare basics of listing descriptions or amazing offers, you still want to be sure there aren't any sore toes you're stepping on because even the smallest details can make the biggest difference, good or bad. Here's some first-hand knowledge I've gained from being on both ends of the buyer and seller relationship and how helping others helps you as one and/or the other.
