How low SHOULD you go?

Like and save for later

Add To Bundle

I love a great deal, so I totally get the impulse to start low. But before you hit Offer, please consider a few things. Doing business on PoshMark gives us many perks on both sides of the sell. These perks come at a price - the seller fee. I cover this fee and all the time and work to locate and bring you these awesome pieces. Think of me as your personal shopper. I promise to give you the best deal I can. But if you want cheaper, you’ll have to beat me to the estate sales. 😋

bidighten @magiedcat I love this! I've seen charts but I've never read before now..you genuinely made me smile with your description & honesty! thank you for posting this..I just had to block someone who offered me 75% off of an item & then when I didn't respond within 2hrs, she cancelled it & then came back yesterday & offered even less! unbelievable.. thank you for everything! all the shares & party considerations -you're really a fantastic posher!!

Jul 01Reply

magiedcat @bidighten aww thanks! I can only imagine how much time and energy you put into your listings! That is so frustrating 😣 I think some people honestly don’t know (I didn’t when I was just a shopper), and others...well, that’s what blocking is for lol. Feel free to copy any of this, if you want. Love your closet and glad to support you the best I can. 😘

bidighten @magiedcat thanks so much! yes some people are new & you can tell..there's only one family member taking pictures & EVERYONE wants us to sell their stuff lol ..but sometimes their prices are uhhhhh..well you know lol ..you have great prices & you're super fair & I hope you continue to sell on here like crazy! are you bringing more stuff in?

Jul 01Reply

magiedcat @bidighten Thank you! I really try to be fair. I do a lot of research before I price things. I have a guest room full of stuff waiting to be posted lol. 🙄 It has been bittersweet to purge ans “give up” pieces I had grand plans go repurpose/alter. But it has been great to get the space, make some money, and find some other great pieces that actually fit me lol. I love vintage clothing and I am a sucker for a pretty dress or coat. Coats are my weakness lol

treasures2luv Hi, Erica ~ This is an awesome chart, super enlightening, but is it only me that cannot read the yellow on white background? I can fill in the blanks however to figure out the mid section in yellow. So what a stellar job you do here on P🥇SHMARK! Kudos to you!!!

Jul 07Reply

magiedcat @treasures2luv Hmm...thanks for letting me know. The photo is in color and the text block is actually green/gray. Very strange but good to know. I will tag a couple of other PFF’s to see if doing same thing to them. Thanks for the head’s up! 👍🏼

Jul 07Reply

magiedcat @bidighten Hey beautiful! Can you read the text on the cover photo alright? Is it hard for you to read?

Jul 07Reply

magiedcat Ohhh...I see what you are referring to now! On the offer chart. I got that from someone else, but maybe I can recreate with better contrast. Thanks again! 👍🏼👍🏼

Jul 07Reply

bidighten @magiedcat hi! the cover photo is fine & if she’s referring to the yellow on the chart -I can see it ok but whomever designed it .......well 🤷🏽‍♀️ ....I wouldn’t have chosen yellow haha

Jul 07Reply

bidighten @magiedcat hope you’re having a beautiful Saturday & that this weekend is 💲pectacular for you!! 😉

Jul 07Reply

magiedcat @bidighten Yea..I can see how that would be hard to read. I am going to remake when I get some spare time 😋

Jul 07Reply

magiedcat @bidighten thank you! I hope the same for you as well! 😘😘

Jul 07Reply

bidighten @magiedcat if you remake -tag me -I might just use yours lol 😉

magiedcat @bidighten will do 👍🏼

bidighten @magiedcat thank you my lovely friend!! 😘🤗

Jul 07Reply

forrestsnowcat This is great! I just wish people would actually READ our posters. I've made several sales where the buyer gave me a low rating and commented on the sizing. I include photos with the tape measure and big red X's to measure before buying in the description. They then tell me they just bought the item and never read the listing! Huh??? 🤪 🤪 Of course they never retract their low rating. 😠

Jul 09Reply

beantownthreads Well said! Thank you for posting this. I'm new here and it's frustrating-especially when another seller lowballs-even more so when she has the same item in her closet priced higher:(

greenbuys What a great post! Thank you for sharing it.

lilbitcowgirl Do you mind if I steal this to post on mine??

Jul 13Reply

magiedcat @alidd19 no problem at all. 👍🏼

Jul 13Reply

magiedcat @forrest19 Yea, would be nice if we could at least respond to negative reviews. It would be great if Posh gave a guided questionnaire instead of just stars.

Jul 13Reply

magiedcat @brand_vieux That is terrible. The good thing is bad business burns itself eventually.

Jul 13Reply

forrestsnowcat @brand_vieux She does that because she wants your item off the radar. It's competition to her. She'll buy yours low and resell it high. 😘

Jul 13Reply

beantownthreads @forrest19 Oh, I'm well aware of that-I may be new to Poshmark but at my age I've been around the block a few times:) I actually felt a bit sorry for her-I offered to buy hers but she declined

Jul 13Reply

muthaluvvintage OMG !!! I love you comment. This IS business. I found so many people take it personal. I do not mind low ball offers. I can always say no but it could be a piece I wanna move & will accept outrageous offers. I just wish so many people would not define friendship with money. Just because I don't accept an offer doesn't mean I dislike someone. RANT OVER !!! We are PFFs forever !!!

Jul 15Reply

muthaluvvintage @bidighten Yes , she is. One of my PFFs 💋

Jul 15Reply

muthaluvvintage @magiedcat Well, I can't wait for you to see all of my coats. I guess when people move to the beach they decide to sell them all. The estate sales here have some of the best. 💋

Jul 15Reply

magiedcat @muthaluvvintage oh my gosh this makes me wanna jump up and down. I have heard estate sales and such are phenomenal down there. Be sure to tag me. 😘

Jul 15Reply

magiedcat @muthaluvvintage I am right there with you on the low ball stuff. I don’t take it personally. No harm asking and no harm saying no. Can’t take any of this stuff personally. Life is too short.

Jul 15Reply

sammygirl32315 love, Love, LOVE this...Very on point and yet still very warm and inviting...Goodness knows ya can't please em all..lol...you were dead on when you said life is too short ❤ May I use this on my page please?? I have a couple followers that I don't want to block (they could always be a potential sale some day!) but when they offer 80% less or more...and yes...I am serious...I can kindly refer them to this chart 😝 Thanks for sharing!! - Sam

Jul 16Reply

magiedcat @sammygirl32315 of course! Feel free :) I remember being young and broke and seeing something cool and lowballing, not realizing it was “inappropriate.” I choose to take it as a compliment. They recognize the awesomeness, even if their budget can’t. Lol.

Apr 23Reply

ttlcd THANKS BIG TIME, but can you tell me how to make it so it scrolls thru all 3 screens. I had to do it in 3 different screens, yikes!!!!

Apr 23Reply

magiedcat @ttlcd. You will need to save the pictures first (to your phone or PC). Then create a listing and just add each slide like you would for a listing. Hope this helps.

magiedcat @greatdanish right?! 😁

May 29Reply

greatdanish @magiedcat So right! Lol. And your polite tirade on how to be a good shopper was spot on. I just got an offer on a 14k gold ring listed at around $300. She offered me (wait for it) $15. I didn’t even respond. I just laughed.

May 30Reply

magiedcat @greatdanish Yea...some people just don’t realize how insulting/rude that can seem. I just counter-offer with full price. I was told to always respond to offers so that system tracks that I am responsive. But man, some times I just want to reply, “Really?!”

May 30Reply

greatdanish @magiedcat Wow. I didn’t know that. I know I shouldn’t get upset or take it personally, right? Lol. I think offering the same price is perfect.

May 30Reply

magiedcat @greatdanish I figure life is too short to let Posh craziness rile me up lol. PS your dogs are adorable! ♥️♥️

magiedcat @marenaf Yes! I totally understand. Some people are always gonna low ball... kind of like the person that is always negative.

recentera Such an informative chart. I'm fairly new to poshmark and have been pricing items extra high to begin, because the prices seem to drop so low. I always offer what I can from my current account balance when I want to purchase an item, but always understand when it's a no. I don't mean to be insulting. I think I could also be more accepting of some lower offers now that I've read through this thread. Thank you for the stellar guidance. I love your shop 😊
