How To: Get Started on Poshmark in 3 Steps. Top Story - May 2018.
Poshmark is the app that has been making waves in the thrift-shopping community. For those who don't know, it's an app that allows you to buy pre-owned clothes and, for those looking to clean out their closets, sell your own clothes in a simple and easy process. They even allow you to download a shipping label for each item you sell that covers up to 5lbs! I can't tell you how fun it is to just tape that label to my packages and drop it in the mail without having to wait in line at the post office.
