Having had a couple of legitimate returns(obvious undisclosed holes) as a buyer on Poshmark, I can tell you that they are definitely seller friendly. Unlikely eBay, they put the onus on the buyer to prove an item is not as described. As a seller, I would think their policies, if they stay this way, would weed out scammers pretty quickly.We just got Poshmark here in Canada; here's some pros and cons so far
- con - the fees are high, so I just tack it on to what I'm charging for the same item on ebay
- pro - shipping is easy, they send the labels
- pro - I had a dispute, and it was settled in my favour. I was thinking that I was going to lose for sure because of what I had become accustomed to on ebay, but they decided with me. It was a pair of unmarked size boots, that the customer claimed were NOD because they fit too small, so I was suprised when they gave their decision.
- con - their inventory management is ******. It's harder to keep track of things there when trying to sell on multiple platforms.
- con - not easy to communicate with buyers, all public @ mentions, no private messages.
Sales have been good there though, a lot better than I anticipated. Far outperforming Grailed for me now.

^A few years ago I bought a BUNCH of isaia off a woman who was cleaning out her hubby's closet, messaged her off an ebay listing. Hubby is my size, but getting bigger in all the wrong places, apparently. It wasn't dirt cheap, but paid no more than $150/suit, several items are still in rotation today, including this textured silk sport coat I'm wearing today.

smdh y'all got me beat. I have no excuse to wear a suit because I only leave the house to thrift. /nolife
Absolutely agree with this. I sell lots of items to my wife's colleagues. A few of these doctors said they would never wear "used" clothing. After a while, they saw the relative bargains that their co-workers were getting. Now, they proudly buy from me. Whenever I get a large haul of something, I send them an email before I even unload it at the house.Just had a meeting with my investments portfolio guy. Decided to take a box of assorted ties in with me. He bought 3, friends and family. No fees, no shipping, and no returns (except on my investments). Loving that.
Plus, he's going to hook me up with his investment buddies in town. Bringing back the door to door salesman.
No scammers, no long message exchanges, no unwarranted feedback, it’s so liberating that I prefer to sell items for £10 at car boot sale than anything less than £25 on eBayJust had a meeting with my investments portfolio guy.
