On a positive note, i think it has been worth it to cross post, especially on poshmark. I have sold new, preowned, and vintage. I haven’t posted a lot of my really stale stuff on there yet but I think I sold one or two old vintage listings. Sometimes things sell quickly. At least for now, they have a really good deal under 5 pounds shipping and they are moving away from the annoying sharing stuff.
I have a couple within 10 miles. One of them has an at counter bin you can drop them in and it is our regional facility – it is the furthest from my house but things probably would move faster after that. Saw yesterday that they are raising ground by 8% in January (retail rates). I wonder what will happen to Ebay and Poshmark label prices with that change.
@Sharon is that the same place where you can buy a label or a different station? That would be awesome but the guys haven’t mentioned it. Fed Ex got one of those drop stations recently, which is awesome since they are chronically understaffed.
Wow that is awesome @VT. I’m starting out on better footing this week and feeling better as well.
I am noticing this morning that the sell similar tab is gone (at least in research). 🙁 This is just desktop but it’s still on the app.
Wow you have a lot going on @VL. @VT I listed something 5/7 days this week. Have something going on healthwise but feeling mostly better now. Need to finish listing Christmas and will continue to crosspost.
Ps. Are people having issues with the post office? I had an item arrive unsealed today (buyer let me know was ok but happened). Had an item go to another coast and come back to the buyer in my home state. Have some items running late on Poshmark with ground. Also ordered something myself and it’s taking forever. Finally, my post office is not scanning on the day I put it on the bin (I get annoying email from Poshmark when it gets a scan).
yes. It sounds so easy in theory but I had a market, got sick, had some sleep issues and before you know it, it’s only half of the days. I tried at a certain time of day but that didn’t work because of family stuff and sleep issues. But sales are up and I’m motivated!
Listed 16/31 days in October. Going to try to hard to list at least a couple of items each day. The software program is starting to end and sell similar on a few items a day for me. Luckily I can see what it’s doing because I get a prompt to promote.
I have several old campaigns running and a few items at 9% (clothing). I think I’m going to end them all and go with 2.1% on eveything. The policy starts tracking clicks mid-December so before then.
I lost my weekly number post but I think I had listed about 14 items. I did a little better listing 5/7 days. My goal is to try to list at least a few items every day, and some days I crank out 10+. Working on listing Christmas right now. Very unfortunately Halloween was a bit disappointing and I have a couple of those items I didn’t get listed. However, I have sold Halloween during the year.
Yeah this is bs. Someone suggested that if they promote to one person and the person likes, then in theory the algorithm will show your item to other people finding it organically. I’m not so confident they deserve the whole fee for that. Sellers in Europe report no increase in sales along with the additional fees. I sent feedback they should try to grow their customer base rather than to keep raising fees.
I feel like we are getting squeezed by the consumer and the platform. Seeing the Poshmark (soon to be roughly equal to promoted Ebay) up front you realize that you had better get good, fast selling items and get them cheap. I’m being really careful sourcing and doing less of it. I guess one plus of having a death pile is that I bought some of it while thrift store prices were lower.
