Love this!!! I’m so tired getting $3 offers for $50 items!
Can I use this?
4umatthew
@bevfine Hi Beautiful 🌻 You sure can😉❣️Some may find offensive but 💩to them🤪❣️I have a low balling is rude post too if you want to use that one too 😉! As long as you do not thrift-sell , your welcome to use this. If you do, no biggie, alot do, you can use my other listing, or both. Low Ballin'Peotches LOL 🤪, SO ignorant, rude, & disrespectful. ✌️&💕
bevfine
@4umatthew thanks a bunch!! 😊 I have my items at 70% off or more and I still get lowballs. It is frustrating. And yes, very rude.
4umatthew
@bevfine I called a low baller out once & ended up having a good conversation with her. She said the reason she offers low because they are thrift store items & she also said because sometimes a Posher will accept. This conversation was the inspiration to this listing for I do not thrift-sell. I am a 5⭐Seller for a reason😉 Love 💕 all your shoes! Unfortunately my boat feet🛶won't work lol🤪❣️Have a peaceful evening & wishing you Happy Sales 💸 & Smiles 🤗✌️💕🌈🌞🌻🕉️👯
thriftygirl2415
@bevfine Me too it’s getting ridiculous lately. Had an offer for $18 for item posted for $44.
bevfine
@thriftygirl2415 this woman keeps offering me $10 for a pair of keen I have marked $25. I declined her offer 3 xs . She just offered it again and asked for reduced shipping. I sent her a lengthy message of how posh buying works. Grrrr
thriftygirl2415
@bevfine I block them after the first lowball offer. They don’t understand the time we put into all of this between the shipping, measurements, photos, listing, sharing, mailing so I don’t have time for them. I am wondering if it is worth it. I don’t know about you but I did awesome for the past 9 months but May has been horrible sales have dropped and all I get is Lowballers. I have my items so low just barely paying for the cost now and still no offers for all new items. Crazy
bevfine
@thriftygirl2415 ya I agree . The last two months have been slow and I’m now posting spring and summer items. The older items I have below $10 and I still get $4-5 offers!! It is so much work. I wouldn’t do it if I didn’t really need the $. I had to quit teaching because of my health. I don’t wear the clothes, so I might as well make $$. I had a garage sale last year. People wouldn’t even pay $5 for jcrew pants!
4umatthew
@bevfine @thriftygirl2415 I agree. April & May have been slower for me too . The WORST is when s Posher lowballs, then after we counter with the same fair offer they increase their amount by $1. Nice when you can come to an agreement w/ a low baller, like I did today on a bundle, but I also agree the WORST as we when a fellow Seller low balls. Offering me $25 on an item that is NWT & originally cost $149 & I have market down to a fair $70...when their closet is full of expensive purses🙄. ✌️&💕&🤗
bevfine
@4umatthew totally agree! 😊😡😡😤
thriftygirl2415
@4umatthew lately the Lowballers are other people selling. Also I had a seller give me this long story to get discounted Spanx bra she brought 3 gave her a hell of a deal because I felt bad for her and now she is selling them for double the price. I won’t fall for that again. Lol. I hope you have a great weekend of sales. But it’s not a military pay weekend so got to really push it this weekend. 🤗
4umatthew
@thriftygirl2415 OMG, AWEFUL! I would NEVER do that to ANYONE! Man, peeps are messed up. How could one look in mirror & have ☮️ in life if going to lie & hustle people like that. I understand if one wants you buy from a different selling site, then sell on here, but what she did, + lie, is so not cool. Karma's a bit(h & Posher will have a negative aura & I'm sure miserable existence. I'm appalled & so sorry that happened to you. Keep your head up Beautiful 🌻 & have a Blessed 🙏 weekend✌️🤗
ladyjayne225
@bevfine Hi. Instead of declining the lowball offer again and again, I counter with the same exact offer I’m willing to accept each and every time they lowball. Eventually they will learn. And also I feel that educating them is a good thing. It helps the entire Posh community not have to deal with at least one more lowballer! Just my 2 cents!! Happy Poshing!! Jane 😊
bevfine
@ladyjayne225 thanks!!! I do usually counter with my lowest
Offer. Sometimes I’m just irritated and decline it.
4umatthew
@ladyjayne225 Hi Jane! That IS what I do. I posted this for I have gotten a few comments like "why would I pay that price for a thrift store item you bought for $3"? Like really? I have nothing against Poshers who thrift, 💩...many, many all do ! I just do not thrift-sell & I do not appreciate getting accused of something others do. If they want to feel that way or do not like my prices, which are all extremely reasonable considering what originally paid/worth, then shop someone else.
4umatthew
@ladyjayne225 I even had a Posher say that I was bring rude for constantly sending back same offer. We all have a "set" price in mind & try to stick to it. I have given crazy discounts & give even more of than the 10% for bundling. I am a 5⭐ Seller for a reason & pride myself on my listings, packaging, & customer satisfaction. If they dont like it, again, shop somewhere. Thank you for your input! Wishing you Happy Sales 💸& Smiles 🥰❣️✌️💕 🤗
ladyjayne225
@4umatthew I feel the same way. It’s very frustrating when you go all out to have quality items at a fair price and someone comes along and disrespects you by lowballing. I am a Posh Ambassador with a top seller 5⭐️ rating. Customer service is very important to me. So we are in the same page with all that!
ladyjayne225
These people either don’t understand how the platform works, or are just trying to get something for nothing. We are not being rude, the lowballer is the one being rude and disrespectful. I just try to remember that I can’t please everyone all the time. I used to give in and feel sorry for them but not any longer. I am willing to wait for the right offer to come along! Have a great day! 😊 Jane
ladyjayne225
Gotcha! The thought comes to mind — why are you shopping on Poshmark? If you want thrift store prices, SHOP AT THE THRIFT STORE!!! 🤣🤣🤣
4umatthew
@ladyjayne225 🤗❣️I am Melissa nice to meet you Jane. Gave you some Posh 💕& followed! So true Sista 😉❣️✌️💕🤗
ladyjayne225
Nice to meet you too, Melissa. I love Posh so much because I can make new friends! Happy Poshing! 😊 Jane

chapell217
@4umatthew oh my goodness you took the words out of mouth! I have been debating on to make a listing like this or not!!! Ever since I stumbled across a group that is proud to go to these Goodwill Bins daily and then sell it on here for outrageous prices.They even post of the non sanitary conditions these “bins” are in and how to clean and get stains out.🤢After seeing yours I you definitely feel better. Do you mind if I use your pics for an idea for mine? I’d feel bad taking them completely.
4umatthew
@chapell217 Good Morning 🌞 Beautiful🌻! Your DEFINITELY welcome to use this! I still get low-balled, but tired of Poshers treating my closet like a thrift store when it's not. Poshers actually post on how to clean thrifted clothing? YIKES😱❣️Have a Wonderful 🤸♀️, Blessed 🙏 Day ❣️✌️💕 🤗🌞 🌈👯
laura_leffel
💓 this 🌟🌟🌟
4umatthew
@laura_leffel Thank you Beautiful 🌻 Sure does not stop the low ballers, but gives an honest insight about my closet! Your closet is lovely 😍! Have a Wonderful 🤸♀️🌈, Blessed 🙏 weekend✌️💕🤗
chapell217
@4umatthew Yes insane and disgusting. It’s called Poshmark Thrifters on fb. I really feel this is why this is why a lot of people feel it’s ok to lowball is because they are seeing publicly online how cheap others are we getting items from Goodwill bins and other thrift places and reselling them for. I definitely appreciate you letting me use your brilliant idea!!! Many successful sale wishes to you!!!💞💞💞
mayshawp
✨Same here✨
4umatthew
@mayshawp Hi Beautiful 🌻! Just so tired of the low balls & disrespect! Kudos to those who do thrift-sell, but I'm proud to say that I know where my items came from. Who wants to buy something possibly 8 people wore 🤔 I've made slot of Posh purchases & you can tell quality from not. Wishing you Happy Sales 💸& Smiles! Nice to hear others who take pride in their closets ❣️✌️💕🤗
edgestyle
Does this post help you with Low Offers?? 😘
4umatthew
@edgestyle 😂😂😂🙄..I wish! Basically for my own lives of mind & respect for my closet
edgestyle
@4umatthew Well you have a up-town closet. They are hoping & wishing we will give them a deal. Lol 😂
jjskid
Loved the feedback on your page. I wanted to jump for joy. People sharing their low ball experiences. My last one, I was already given a low price for the item, but wanted me to eat the cost by offering a discount on shipping.
4umatthew
@jjskid Hi Beautiful 🌻 Errrrrrr🤬 Just erks ya doesn't it! I just do not understand the minset of people. One-time a Posher said she sent low-ball "just because"...REALLY "PEOTCH"...🤪 what I call low ballers lol 😜🤭! Have a Wonderful 🤸♀️ Blessed 🙏 day ❣️✌️💕🤗
jjskid
@4umatthew You're too kind. Yes irritated but I take a deep breath and give a polite no.
ladysilver
Im pretty new to Poshmark so can you tell me what is thrifting so I wont do it! Lol.thanks
4umatthew
@ladysilver Hi Beautiful 🌻 Thrifting, thrift-selling, is when you shop around at thrift stores & turn profit. Say find a used ( who knows how many times) name brand item & buy for $3, then sell on here for $60. It's many Poshers hustle on here, just not mine. I am in no way judging those who do, but I do not. You get alot of "low ball" offers on here, which are rude & disrespectful. I finally one day asked a Posher why would you offer me that low low price & my expensive, quality item..
4umatthew
@ladysilver she said "why would I pay more for a thrifted find". felt so insulted for my closet is all mine or a loved one donated, not thrifted. That inspired me to make this.Thrifted or not, unfortunately low balls are the nature of beast, but at least I can hold my head up & stand by quality my items & know where they came from. Hope this answers your ?. If you EVER have any Poshing ?'s or would like some guidance/tips, please do not hesitate to ask me for there is ALOT of Poshin to learn✌️🤗
ladysilver
@4umatthew
Thanks fir the explanation! I have a couple questions since your closet is so beautiful and obviously successful as an ambassador!
On yourlistings how do you get the designer logos on the pics? Also how do you put your own message or other pic such as a listing that says no lowballing or 15% discount on my closet! Oh and where do you get the pics that are already made by some outside source?
Any info would b appreciated! Thank you
4umatthew
@ladysilver Hi! Thank you for the compliments! I'm still fairly a Posh newbie myself, learning & growing the more as I go. As for photo editing I may not be the best to ask. I only have logo on a couple pics for the listing pic is most important & logos can distract. Do you have a Android phone or iPhone? If iphone I wouldn't know much how they operate for I always had Android's. Do you know how to screenshot? Using Google & screenshot is how you get "stock photos".
4umatthew
@ladysilver I am going to open a bundle from your closet, there we can chat privately
saleallday
LOVE THIS!!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ So tired of people thinking we need to pay them to take our clothes! Love your closet PFF❤️❤️❤️
thriftygirl2415
@bevfine Me too. I am so over lowball offers. Sad but a lot of times the offers are coming from other sellers that know better.
4umatthew
@thriftygirl2415 OMG Girlfriend...same here! I've been getting a LOT of lowballs from Sellers lately...like WTF! I am learning to just keep my mouth shut. So interesting for they actually get offended when I comment on their low ball🤔🤪. Wishing you Happy Sales 💸& Smiles 🥰!
✌️💕🤗
onemorecolor
@4umatthew Hi new Posh friend! Just FYI I’ve recently learned that Bundle chats are not actually private. 😬 I did not really know how to use Bundles as a seller, so I was researching them, and that’s one of the things I learned. 🤔
vintageartistry
wow! thank you of all the shares! you have a great closet!
lorisposhplace
@4umatthew I have been thinking about you
My sons 10 yr Ångelversary iis coming up and I have been thinking about our last conversation and I need you to know your
Worthy, your beautiful and your enough and dont ever doubt yourself because you are meant to be here to help people and your heart is beautiful and you now have a place in mine❤❤❤🥰🥰
angelab1006
How did you create this because I would like to do my own version? I don't thrift sell either it either from my own clothing closet or old stuff of friends and family they don't use or need anymore. Then I am kind enough to give them the money when they sell.
4umatthew
@angelab1006 Hi Beautiful 🌻 I Googled "thrift store images". Found a few, screenshot & saved. Then I went to photo editor...I use Pixlr...& wrotecon screenshot image & saved to my photos. Not sure if you have Android or iPhone...I have Android. Hope this helps & glad you agree with me. A LOT of Poshers do thrift-sell...I say do your thing, but it doesn't sit well with me. If you have any more ? then ask away! ✌️💕🤗
hollyaynshobby
@4umatthew This kind of blew me away...I didn't even know that "thrift store selling" was a thing! Naive of me, I guess... 🤷♀️ I am a fairly new Posher and I'm working to build my online closet & network of followers. I've worried that the brands I buy aren't "posh" enough but there seems to be a good representation of different levels of fashion. I'm really enjoying it so far! I will ALWAYS do my best to be a fair & respectful buyer AND seller. 😎
4umatthew
@hollyayn77 Hi Beautiful 🌻 Yes, unfortunately a LOT of Poshers buy from thrift stores to sell on Posh. Just not my thing. Be careful how you price. Know that Posh takes 20%, & many Poshers will offer & low ball. Always start with a higher price, & have a set price in mind & stick with it. Your brands are fine. Make sure to write brand in listing title to lure Posher in. Share, share SHARE! Share your closet several times daily & share from others. Follow at least 200 Poshers daily.
4umatthew
@hollyayn77 Follow all directions in "Posh Stats" on how to reach Ambassador Status. You can be successful & make hundreds a month, you just have to learn all the tips & tricks. Right now is a slow time for a lot of us but I was told sales will pick up soon. Patience is key & so is communication with others. Join a share group or two. This helps you form your "Posh Circle/Family". I have one at top of my closet, @kandyzland has a few a well.
4umatthew
@hollyayn77 Feel free to ask me anything for I love paying it forward & helping new Poshers succeed, the way some Wonderful 🤸♀️ Poshers have for me. Have a peaceful evening & weekend✌️💕🤗
hollyaynshobby
@4umatthew Thank you so much for taking the time to share some tips with me! They are super helpful...I took screenshots so I can remember them. Have a wonderful weekend!
harper946
@4umatthew. Hi. Can you help me with something. How do you get stock pics. I know how to screen shot my problem is finding a stock pic. Thank you
4umatthew
@harper946 Hi Beautiful 🌻 Errr...this is a tough one. Do your best to Google the item. Describe it to the tee in Google search. Then search through results. I buy directly from manufacturer on some items so stock photos will be in website. Also, if you purchase through other selling sites, stock photo may be found with item. Hope this helps! Sometimes you can find stock photos on Posh too. If item is old, chances of finding photo is less likely.
4umatthew
@harper946 Google item description & brand. If cannot find, try describing a different way. If you know where item was bought, sometimes you can find on store website like Macy's, Norstrom, etc
harper946
@4umatthew. Thank you friend. You have great boho stuff. Any good distributors you could recommend or is that just for posh ambassadors. I'm very close to posh ambassador. Thanks for your help greatly appreciate. I'm really liking the BOHO look
4umatthew
@harper946 I am not sure what you mean by distributors. I fo not think wholesale is available till Ambassador status but I could be wrong. I wouldn't buy wholesale on Posh, just because so many do. One closet that has nice wholesale is (@)hollywood_rage. Other selling sites have wholesale or nice items at good prices. You can also appt for a wholesale license in your state where you can shop wholesale anywhere then. I'm working on getting mine, it's just costly
shopchicmissy
@4umatthew I love this so much. I was starting to wonder if I too was the only one who doesn’t thrift or shop in the good will bins to make large profit. I was watching some you tubes videos about success in Poshmark and there was even one there on how to go to bins and then mark up etc. my stuff is either kind or boutique or like you said family.
Anyway just wanted to spread the love and tel you I feel this ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️xo
4umatthew
@shopchicmissy Awe, thank you honey. Some actually get offended by this, probably because they thrift sell. To each their own but just doesn't sit right w/ me. Plus, continual low balls are so annoying & offensive, but this unfortunately does not stop them. I appreciate you as a fellow Seller who takes pride in her closet & does not scam. Plus, when I'm asked about condition & fit I can answer truthfully & know how item runs size wise & fit. The WORST is when you ask about fit & Posher is like 🤷
4umatthew
@shopchicmissy Sending you lots of Posh 💕& Wishing you Happy Sales💸& Smiles 🥰 ❣️ I just started selling last Oct & this summer has been extremely slow. 🙏ing sales pick up for I am extremely hurting financially for I dropped a lot to stock up this summer on new merch with not much sold. Have a peaceful evening & wonderful week! ✌️💕🤗
girlslikeus28
Love it💕💕!!
girlslikeus28
May I borrow too?
4umatthew
@girlslikeus28 Hi Beautiful 🌻 Of course you can. I am glad you appreciate this. I've actually had some find offense to it but most likely they are thrift store Sellers🙄🤭😱. You may want to crop out my closet name or somehow Photoshop your over, or you can keep my closet name too. Thank you so much for the Posh 💕. Sending lots of love 💕back. Have a peaceful evening & a relaxing Sunday✌️💕🤗
4umatthew
@girlslikeus28 WOW! You have a GORGEOUS 😍 CLOSET Darling. I just love Free People. I have a bunch in my closet too, on Posh & at home. Will definitely keep an eye on your closet for I sure do love to shop. Wishing you Happy Sales💸& Smiles 🥰✌️💕 🤗
girlslikeus28
@4umatthew yours as well Sweets! Anthro and FP! I’m an addict! Love your goodies 💕💕
platinummermaid
@4umatthew Girl you are speaking my language!!! I had a posting like this years ago and posh removed me and told me basically it was unbecoming of someone who represented them at public events. I have toyed with reposting it ever since! I am hugely anti- thrifting! I feel people donate so those without can have something nice. Not so Sara Super Thrift can come along as a vulture, snatch anything "decent" up & sell it on here for a 4000% mark up.
4umatthew
@platinummermaid AMEN SISTA! That I EXACTLY what's going on. Makes me feel 🤢 & 😡. I cannot believe Pos actually did that. Did they remove your listing or close or whole closet? Either way, just not cool at all. I have had other Poshers put this in a bundle to "privately" message me that this is offensive. OFFENSIVE , WTF? What is offensive is you buying a nice dress at Salvation Army, when a woman who has next to nothing could of bough that to make her feel pretty, for $3, then...
4umatthew
@platinummermaid Selling dress on Posh to make you more money. What's offensive is the countless videos on YouTube about how to thrift, how to shop "bins", how to remove stains, how to make a very used garment look new again, etc etc. I am so happy that I have someone on my side for I have gotten slack for having this listing up. PLUS the countless low ball offers for potential buyer "assumes" item is thrifted. And don't get me started on the Wish-selling
4umatthew
@platinummermaid I started selling a little over a year ago for I fell on some very hard times, basically am broke, on disability now & thought I could make extra money selling my things. It pains me to have half of these listings up for I adore my clothing, I just desperately need money. I desperately need money & I still would NEVER thrift sell. I would love to get my wholesale license so I could start buying quality, name brand wholesale, but I cannot even afford that.
4umatthew
@platinummermaid Anywho, I really appreciate you. Thank you. In more ways that you know. Love your Posh Sister Melissa✌️♥️🤗
platinummermaid
@4umatthew they only removed the listing thank God but still it was really ridiculous! I agree wholeheartedly about the videos & how the “thrifting” way of life has really caused a shift in the selling dynamic as well as the quality of buyers coming through. When sellers make thrifting videos & people watch them, then buy from them it makes me like this 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ you just watched them spend .65 cents for that dress that you bought from them for $25.
platinummermaid
@4umatthew I appreciate you too and the hard work you have put in curating a beautiful closet 💗💗 I’m sorry your health is poor but I will keep you in my prayers. I applaud you for Standing up for what you feel is right, and I stand with you on this all the way! I will never be able to wrap my head around the “buyers” who assume we are all getting our items from a donation bin so they should offer $5 on a $200 bag.
platinummermaid
@4umatthew for a while Posh had, and still might have a gimmick advertisement on Pinterest and all over social media claiming you can buy NEW high end items for 80% off retail. I love a great sale as much as the. Next person BUT if I didn’t pay 80% off retail, I’m not selling it to someone else for 80% off plus posh takes 20%, so basically I am actually paying in more & making zero if I follow the ad’s way of listing. It feeds in the whole entitlement mentality that I’m personally sick of, lol.
4umatthew
@platinummermaid AMEN SISTER, AMEN✌️♥️🤗

First of all...AMEN to that! I am unable to ship your earrings until Monday morning🙄 Life happens lol 😂 I would like to add extras as a token of my appreciation! Let me know what style, colors, and sizes you like, and I PROMISE to make your package special 😉🙏
creeksidesales
Love ❤️❤️❤️ the directness of this!! I love an offer, but for goodness sakes.......some of them are sooooo insulting. Thanks for letting me know I am not alone 🙃😊🙃😎
getyourposhon2
This sounds like a great group, lots of ideas and tips. Love it! I liked this so that I can come back and learn more and maybe get more involved. I have bought and sold for years, and I do you have a local shop, and I call it a boutique and resale shop. I got a lot of people thinking it’s a thrift store. I plan to do with things of my better things here. I get my things from many sources, but definitely not the Goodwill bins. LOL
4umatthew
@getyourposhon2 Hi Beautiful Barbara 🌻! Thank you so much for your kindness & I appreciate you selling quality, not thrifted items. Not really a group, more a notification to potential buyers that I am not a thrift store seller, which unfortunately many Poshers are. Everything I sell was bought directly through retailer, & used has one owner- myself or a loved one. So wonderful you have your own Boutique, I pray that through these difficult times your able to keep afloat. ♥️, Sales💸, & Smiles🥰
fairychristine
This is 👍💕❤️🤗
angidabartender
@4umatthew hello. Might I ask what thrift selling is? I read the thread, what do you do about these low ballers?!?! I mean, REALLY?!?! A 30$ offer on a 250$ piece that I paid 500$ for?!?! I was injured a few years ago and my income is 1/4th what it used to be. So…..selling. AND since covid I’ve had a huge influx of discarded/stray animals. You can’t just ignore them. 🤷🏼♀️. Any tips?
4umatthew
@angidabartender "Thrift Selling" aka Thrift-Store Selling, is the common practice to buy used clothing/shoes/bags/jewelry etc for cheap at thrift stores, then re-selling on Posh for profit. Everything I sell is either Brand 🆕 w/Tags, bought DIRECTLY through retailer of brand/label, or Like 🆕, in Flawless Condition, w/myself (mostly), or loved one donated, bought directly through retailer. Many sellers thrift sell & it personally disgusts me. Tons of YouTube vids on how to properly Thrift Sell🤦
4umatthew
@angidabartender So yes, it eerks me as well when I receive the dreaded low ball offer especially since on a lot of my items I paid full retail cost, which seems to be the case with you. Every time I get a low ball offer I counter with the price that I have planned on wanting to sell for, with a Sarah is explanation about quality, original retail cost, condition, rarity, etc, whatever applies to item in question. I have made sales this way and I have been ignored. Yes, low balls are rude.
4umatthew
@angidabartender the worst is the lowest of low low balls. People who literally offer 1/10 of listed price. Low ballers are often people who think your items are bought at thrift stores thus they feel they can offer thrift store price. I used to send low ballers to this listing, as well as my low balling is rude listing, though didn't get me anywhere. When you get a really rude offer, either counter or ignore. They unfortunately are going to happen often so you take your pick how to handle ✌️💗🤗
angidabartender
@4umatthew 🙄 bloody hell, what is wrong with people? I actually had a woman tell me that she would pay my lowest asking price to a store, but she wasn’t going to pay me my asking price. I told her that she would actually pay about 4x my asking price in a store. I flat out refused her. She got really offended. I’ve actually been blocking them if they act like jackasses.
4umatthew
@angidabartender So sorry honey. I worked retail/customer service in the past & Posh is a whole other level and I get mind boggled at times by the amount of disrespect, though there are also a lot of wonderful, kind, & respectful people as well. You did the right thing, you can always block someone who is being disrespectful, rude, lowballing, a scam closet, etc. I get annoyed when someone sets up a bundle, then never even responds to comments/offer.
4umatthew
@angidabartender Your closet is lovely. May I asked how our sales lately 🤔? I start Poshmark not too long before you and these past couple months have been an all-time low for me in sales. Stinks for like you, I'm on disability & rely a lot of my income on Posh sales and lately having hardly any. I'm on our family vacation currently, which means no sales, but geez. I know summers are usually lower sales than normal but this summer difficult. Guessing covid has caused a lot of hard times for many
angidabartender
@4umatthew you know, it really has been VERY low. I sell on 3 different sites and all of them have been slow. A sale here or there, but not much. And I know that people want a good deal, I get that, but don’t be so rude!!! And, as far as covid, we have stores closing because they can’t get workers. We have a restaurant here that has been around as long as I can remember and they had to close.
angidabartender
@4umatthew Work is there, people are just not working. And, idk about other people, but last year when I got laid off, my unemployment was a fraction of what I made. And our governor has stopped the extra federal money.
Enjoy your vaca. Good luck with your sales. I feel very blessed because the Lord has provided what I need but I don’t really have extra left over.
angidabartender
@4umatthew Hey love. I was going to share some of your closet, I guess since your on vacation, everything is showing as not for sale. I’ll check back at a later time to return the favor. Have a great time!!! 😊

@hellobutifl Hi Beautiful 🌼 Mia, Thank you so much! Definitely necessary, for I stand by this whole heartedly. This listing has angered people in the past, most likely for they are guilty of doing so, & always nice to meet & support a fellow non thrift-seller. Have to run & get nephew ready for school, but will share some of your closet later. Thank you for selling beautiful, 🆕, & non thrifted/authentic items✌🏻♥️🤗

@kirstyscloset Hi Beautiful 🌼! I so appreciate my fellow non-thrifted Sellers. Honest, quality items, that we invested in & are re-selling is the way to go, for honest living is the most peaceful for the spirit. Thank you & much respect for not buying into the hype of thrift selling ✌️♥️🤗

@4umatthew I’m so glad to see someone say all this out loud!! It’s hard for me to sell MY things 😂. I buy a lot on Posh and Online from stores. I take good care of my things and don’t wear 90% of what I buy. I’m constantly getting offers for the lowest someone can possibly go. On brand new-impeccable not reposhed pieces.

I don’t thrift-sell either. On the pieces I’ve worn I try to be as transparent as possible and spend so much time on things. Steaming-checking for pilling…I am horrible at photos but I try. I don’t know why I should essentially pay people to buy my things…

omg😅👏👏 yes I have a very similar listing in my closet. I created it after a particularly insane day of extremely low ball offers 😅😅
