My name is Amanda, and I used to have unsupported items for sale in my closet. At first it was due to ignorance, and later it was due to pride. Being compliant helps us make money. Closets that contain non-compliant items lose out on the support of the community at large. Without that support, we don't get as many sales. I learned, & I changed. I'm very grateful to be compliant today. I hope this listing helps some of you understand why following Posh rules is the only way to go.

rmccouture @queenmumm So, here are my confessions Brenda. Was curious what you though... Thanks!❤️

Jul 11Reply

queenmumm Amanda, I think the strongest characteristic of a Posher is her integrity. When her closet becomes synonymous with TRUTH, she will always have PFFs at her back as well as the team at HQ. We are a visual medium, and it is a challenge in "reading" someone we've not met in person. I feel like you and I would click immediately. No one is required to divulge her non compliant past, but your gut instinct says it's the right thing to do and I admire your humility and integrity. Cheers, love! 👑😘💗💕

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @queenmumm Thank you Brenda. It is extremely profound to me that you used the words "integrity" and "humility". To some, those characteristics come naturally; to others, like me, they continue to have to be honed. The Universe helps me with that every day! I grow at the speed of pain, and I have been blessed with tons! But seriously, I have learned that no experience is a bad experience if we can use it to identify and help others...

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @queenmumm I hope that by my sharing my experience, people will see the truth in what I have said here. I have had several dialogues with sellers who had unsupported items listed, and saw that my experience helped them better see how they were engaging in self-sabotage because of pride. I thought, perhaps, others might consider tagging closets having difficulty digesting suggestions of compliancy here...

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @queenmumm I hold no judgement against those who choose to post unsupported items; it just baffles my mind how some closets, holding 200 items, would find selling a bra without tags that important. Just because I don't get it doesn't mean I think ti's wrong; it just means I can't share their other items, and that makes me sad. I love to share.

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @queenmumm Your work, and your message did a lot to inspire me and give me the courage to post my truth. Thank you for being so magnanimous, generous, thoughtful and caring. I know it took me a while to create this one listing. You have so many helpful tips in your closet! It's amazing you have time to post items!

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @queenmumm Lastly, I appreciate your belief that my "confession" will not place me into a precarious position with Poshmark. They know that I had listed things that were not supported; it's not a secret to them. I just wanted to show the difference between what we can receive when we do the next right thing, and what is kept from us when we choose to but our pride first. I hope that others see this posting and use it to spread the word that we can recover, if we are willing to.

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @queenmumm Sending tremendous gratitude, love and light your way Brenda. Thank you. ❤️

marycstephens This is great! It takes some time to figure out how things work and we all get a grace period, so no worries! You're such a wonderful, helpful, lovely Posher, so glad I know you! Love, Mary

Jul 12Reply

styledbyodilia Sooooo well-stated and thought out, my friend!!! I couldn't agree more.....I am very dismayed at the amount of "designer-inspired" items (And as a VINTAGE collector/seller, I could talk for another hour about the way THAT word gets so loosely thrown around on this site, but that is a whole other matter) that I feel throws off the integrity of the entire site to an extent.... (cont.)

Jul 12Reply

styledbyodilia (cont.)and I won't even discuss home goods and "slightly used" fragrances, makeup and undergarments. I get that we all want to make $$$, but it hurts the sales of the entire site when we allow closets to serve as mini-flea market booths. Honesty, integrity and professionalism to the best of our ability - I'm AGREE TOTALLY~~~ XOXOXOXO, Odilia

Jul 12Reply

motherskiss You are absolutely on point!!! I didn't know all the rules, but once I did I gained more respect from the Posh community and then my selling success grew. There are so many other sites to sell unsupported Posh items. I chose to honor Posh rules. Therefore my closet will remain. A lot of rule breakers are not aware that their entire closet can be deleted and they can be banned from ever Poshing again...

Jul 12Reply

rmccouture @motherskiss Thanks for taking the time to read and respond to my confessions Dani. Do you think that closets selling unsupported items will even look at this though? I hope that someone will benefit from my experience and leave the shady, underground to live on the light and love that is Poshmark! ❤

Jul 13Reply

motherskiss Even if it just changes one person's attitude it was worth putting up.

Jul 13Reply

proverbs_31 This is such a great idea to share! When I was hosting, it was so frustrating to find amazing items that fit my theme perfectly, only to scroll further and find unsupported items. Mostly I just "un-liked" the item and moved on, but a few times I stopped to say "hey, I'm not the Posh police lol, but I wanted to choose your item as a HP, but I CAN'T because of ...." Hopefully your listing helps people understand those things are holding them back!

Jul 14Reply

rmccouture @proverbs_31 Thank you so much Megan. It is really depressing, actually. I guess I never paid THAT much close attention before to all of the closets that have unsupported items. It's frustrating is RIGHT! (sigh) Trying to raise others up is all good, but if they don't want to be lifted, they are too heavy for any human hands.❤️

rmccouture @kookc Hey Carolyn. I wanted to share this posting with you. You help out so many closets that contain unsupported listings, and I know that some people don't want to hear it because they feel as I used to when I was told something I had was not allowed. Feel free to tag those closets here. It would be really rewarding to have my experience help someone else see the truth about compliancy and do a turn-about as a result of reading my story. I hope you're having a great day!❤️

Jul 14Reply

rmccouture @mrsmadariaga @mandapanda83 @sunfloweria @lavishlook @flowersnmyheart I made this "confession" in the hopes of convincing others that following the rules was in their best interest. If you guys come across non-compliant closets, and feel like they are sabotaging themselves, feel free to tag them here!❤️

Jul 14Reply

mrsmadariaga Thx so much my friend! I'm finding so many great things for my party but then can't choose because they are non compliant closets. It's tough. I've told some of them with only 1 or 2 bad listings and they've cleaned them up but some are just so full. It's great to have this posting so I can tag then and share my thoughts here. Thank you 😘😘😘

Jul 14Reply

mrsmadariaga @jjetson60 Hi I just wanted to tag you here because I was looking through your closet considering it for a Host Pick for my upcoming posh party on 7/24 but had to pass due to your closet containing some no compliant items. I hope this listing helps you understand what you can/can't sell on posh. If you remove the noncompliant listings please tag me so I can reconsider your closet. Best of luck & happy Poshing 😘

Jul 15Reply

classyvintage I love this and so did I. Lucky for me I had some sweet posher so steer me in the right direction.

Jul 15Reply

lakeforest Amanda-great post👍🏻I could never comprehend why so many Poshers don't know what is supported vs. unsupported.. It is all stated and explained in PM's FAQs, etc..and many of these sellers aren't all new Poshers either😁

Jul 15Reply

rmccouture @mrsmadariaga I'm glad that you are sending people here Tiffany. Hopefully it helps someone!❤️

Jul 15Reply

rmccouture @classyvintage I think that most people did Marie. I like what @queenmumm Brenda wrote about us not being required to disclose our non-compliant pasts... I felt that I had to do this. I'm glad that I did, and I'm super glad to have you as a friend!❤️

Jul 15Reply

rmccouture @lakeforest Thank you Dorothy! I didn't read the rules in the beginning, as I wrote in one of the photos. I searched for the items I wanted to sell, and if others were doing it, I did it too. Ignorance is often the culprit, pride comes second!❤️

jeanscenequeen @rmccouture Thx for sharing this. It's very thoughtful & humble. I saw a new gal & tried to help her by asking her very nicely if she wanted me to help her have the very best experience poss. on here. She said yes, so I told her that she would have more people sharing her closet if she made it compliant. She shot me back a not-too-friendly note asking if I was the Posh Patrol & to have fun patrolling. Cont'd

Jul 17Reply

jeanscenequeen @rmccouture Cont'd I was doing it from a good place & now I'm even more hesitant to try to help others. It's nice to have this spot to send people. You said it better than I ever could. I hope you don't mind, also, if I send some good friends over here so they can tag it as a resource to help others. Thx again! Dawn xoxox

rmccouture @lmfashion

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @jeanscenequeen What a beautiful and sad message Dawn. Thank you so much for taking the time to share it here with me. I wouldn't take that poshers reaction to you personally. The word "compliant" is very difficult for most people to digest. I think that most poshers work alone, and are used to being their own bosses. Being told to be compliant is harsh on many an ear! It sure sounded harsh to me when people were trying to be helpful...

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @jeanscenequeen I would love you to tag that posher, and any other closet that you feel would benefit from my experience. Whenever I can use my experience, no matter how yucky it was, to help someone else out, it becomes a positive experience.

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @jeanscenequeen would be honored to have the opportunity to help anyone you come across see the truth about how posting unsupported (better word than non-compliant!) sabotages their full potential to be a thriving asset on poshmark. Thank you again so very, very much❤️

Jul 17Reply

jeanscenequeen @rmccouture Thanks so much about the tip for using the word "unsupported." It does have a more positive ring to it.

thesassyblondes Love this Amanda!! 👆Brenda @queenmumm hit the nail on the head! I admire you as well although you aren't required to list your past transgressions regarding this you did and that makes you that much more respected here! You would love Brenda! She's a super lady! She traveled to our Posh Live party in Charlotte NC where I met her over a year ago. (I have pics in my closet of our party). She is very well respected in the PM community & by Manish and his team. Love this so much!!!! 😊👍💞

Jul 17Reply

thesassyblondes And Thank you so much for all the shares! You are Awesome! 😘❤️❤️

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @lmfashion @queenmumm does so much for the posh community. She really is a worker among workers. I appreciate Poshmark because they it is made up of real people, and Manish, who I met at the Posh Live NYC this past spring, is authentic and very humble....

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @lmfashion I believe that one of Poshmark's objectives from the start was to become a thriving, safe, loving community, where women could work together, share together, and help one another economically, fashionistically (not a word, but I like it!) and socially. It has integrity. So many places in our culture lack integrity, and lack an understanding of what integrity is, and why it's so vital to our spirits and lives...

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @lmfashion I respect Brenda tremendously for personifying that in her closet, and believe that this is a place where people actually can see how doing the right thing does merit having good things happen to them. That is also a rarity in every day life, when so often doing the right thing does not mean that the right thing happens...

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @lmfashion It might be somewhat unrealistic of me to want to believe that this kind of environment online can and is growing into a bit of a movement outside of the web, but I see it happening in the photos from meet-ups and Live Posh events, and I think it's beautiful. I want to contribute to it because it makes the world a better place. I really believe that is the truth...

Jul 17Reply

rmccouture @lmfashion and if it's not the truth? Well, no one's being injured because I believe that the world can be more loving and supportive. I would rather have hope than be jaded and skeptical any day! Have a beautiful night Lynn! So nice chatting with you!❤️

Jul 17Reply

thesassyblondes I agree whole-heartedly w/everything you said. It seems we share a lot of the same ideals & values. The meet ups are def bringing a diff level to PM and I can't wait to meet Manish!

Jul 17Reply

thesassyblondes I've heard so much about him from some of our mutual friends. I was just not able to attend Posfest yet mainly b/c of our business. I do hope to go,if not this year,next indeed. It's a long trip & quite expensive. Well you know you're on the east coast too! Have a good night too Amanda. So good talking with you as well! Talk to you again soon! (Sorry, I'm so slow w/this 500 or less char. work around, lol)❤️

Jul 17Reply

alyssahourglass @rmccouture ~ Wow! Awesome Post Amanda! I have been compliant since the first day I started selling (07.08.15) but I do see so many Poshers who are not complaint, and I just stop sharing from them/unfollow and if they take other forms of payment or advertise that they sell on other sites, I will block them right away. Extreme? Perhaps. I just don't want to affiliate myself with non-compliant Poshers.

Jul 17Reply

alyssahourglass The only roughest part is telling Poshers I have told 2 people and it did not go well either time. Both times they argued back, telling me there know so-and-so does it, blah blah blah. I don't bother telling anymore, I will report, unfollow & block if necessary for some. ~ I really do appreciate the fact that you're sharing this, new & experienced Poshers who don't know will know now! :) BLAST SHARING!!! 💖XOXO💖

matadora1978 @alyssahourglass...i agree ...one day when i become an SU i will post smt like this too ...i used to be liek @rmccouture when i first started and shes right its not worth loosing so much over a few items ...i saw the light! and im so glad i did...ive been telling some poshers about non complaint 98% so far has been good about it...the other 2% is not ready to be there yet...time will let them know its not worth it.

Jul 18Reply

rmccouture @rkvanity Most closets have sold unsupported items in the past. We are human. A lot of times we don't know what we can or can't sell. Poshmark removed 12 of my items when I became a cohost because my closet is under a microscope, and they don't want to show that cohosts or suggested users sold unsupported items. It makes sense. They're doing their best to get us all to be successful. So OF COURSE I will support your closet! Lol!❤️

Jul 18Reply

rmccouture @rkvanity I never realized that it was illegal to ship liquids. You can sell perfumes and makeup on other sites, but pm has CRAZY good shipping rates. I think it's partially because they are so respectful of the USPS's rules regarding that stuff.

siouxshawn @rmccouture I tagged you with 💎for 2 items. There are actually several other great things in that closet but there is a Chanel lipstick phone charger that is probably against the rules. Which I did not notice until after I sent thpse

Jul 19Reply

rmccouture @mojoy Hey Joyce. Firstly, I will keep both you and Erik in my prayers. I really felt awful for bringing up rules after I read your first comment. I'm relieved and grateful that you understand that my intention was to be helpful! It would be very helpful if the system was set up in such a way that unsupported items were automatically rejected, but that's pretty advanced filtering and technology, especially when it comes to NWT bathing suits, etc...

I need to find that letter they sent her and post it. 😉

Is there a way to get rid of/delete the listings I sold that are considered non compliant? These are listings from over a year ago. 😁 I have been trying to follow the rules. But I'm still paranoid that my old mistakes are haunting me... 😖 I would love to be 100% compliant & be able to ask Posh for the honor of hosting parties and of being a suggested user. 😁

rmccouture @meybaby Hey Mey. I doubt that your old listings would affect you today, unless you were selling non-authentic items, and a buyer was to go back into your sales history, see that you sold something that was a knock-off, and judge what you sell today based on that... I don't think that many people would take the time to do that! Lol...

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby As long as you keep your closet compliant and full, I would suggest applying for the suggested user program, and to be a party cohost. If you qualify to become a SU, Poshmark will remove any unsupported items that you sold. They do this because SUs are like ambassadors for PM, and PM doesn't want to have bad examples of the users they suggest...

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby MOST members of PM sold items that were unsupported in the beginning. I wouldn't think too much about it. Just take really strong cover shots, share (join share groups, make a point to share other's closets as often as possible, and share your closet during every party you can, and whenever during the day you can). Doing this will increase your followers and sales...

rmccouture @meybaby If I never made mistakes, I would never grow. We all have clay feet. I try not to judge others because of what they did in the past. I know if i were to be judged today for all of the mistakes I have made in my past, I would not be able to ever hold my head up. Don't beat yourself up for being ignorant. You're perfect just the way you are❤️

Aug 01Reply

meybaby Oh no, no, no 😳 I didn't sell knock off's lol! I sold a couple of perfumes & a closet space saver hanger thing in a bundle lol But, yes, you are right. I don't ever go through sold listings of other closets, so others are probably also not taking the time either. I guess I'm just paranoid lol

Aug 01Reply

meybaby Thank you so much for the advice! I really appreciate your time 🌹 I have a lot of stuff listed & plan to list a bunch more. And I have been working really hard on not listing anything that is non-compliant. So I'll take your advice & apply. 😄 it would be so great to be given that honor!

Aug 01Reply

meybaby Awwww thank you so, so much! 🌹 Your words definitely help put me at ease and help me feel more confident. We are all always learning and growing. I need to remember that! 😊

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby It truly is an incredible feeling, for me, to have been made a SU. It actually is so sacred to me that I did not announce it, like many people do. I cherish it, and respect it, and appreciate it beyond expression. I'm very glad that my advice was helpful! One more thing (not to quote "Star Wars", but I do love it!) Don't try. Do. There's no reason for you to post something that is not supported, and it's not worth the price you pay on your reputation with PM...

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby If you are unsure whether or not something is compliant, you can ask me, or go onto @queenmumm 's page. She has a SIGNIFICANT amount of very useful information there. I have learned so much from reading her posts and blog, and I still learn from her. People want to help on here. It's just the warmest, fuzziest feeling some days!❤️

Aug 01Reply

meybaby I really like your story- it's so amazing that you had the guts to share it on this post. 😆

Aug 01Reply

meybaby Thank you! I'm always amazed & touched at how many ladies want to help each other. It's inspiring and humbling.

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby I felt that I had to share it publicly when I was chosen to cohost a party. I was messaging so many people privately with my story, and most of them had no idea that what they had in their closets were not supported. Based on the majority of users who reacted positively to the way I used my experience to explain to them why doing what PM requires us to do HELPS us succeed, I decided that it might be a good idea to just 'fess up in a listing!

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby I was nervous about doing it, for sure. I asked @queenmumm before I really started to share it, and her response to it still gives me chills an causes me to tear up when I read it. Anyway, if it only helped one person, then it would be worth sharing.

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby Our experiences, no matter how dark they may be, are turned into our most powerful assets when we learn from them, and use them to reach out to help someone else. The only negative experiences are the ones we refuse to grow from. That's my take on it, anyway...

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @meybaby I hope you're not sharing my closet right now! Go to sleep! It's even late on the west coast (if that's where you are) and it's going to start getting light in New York, where I am! Nighty night Mey!❤️

meybaby That is definitely true. I'm sure that with this one listing alone you have reached out and helped so many people! 😀 It's so cool! I'm glad you did because It's helping me, and also because I discovered your beautiful closet. Wow! If I had the money I would be buying more than half of your items! 💕😆💕

matadora1978 if only pm would let us delete the sold 'illegal' post we used to have...its unfair how some poshers wont give you a chance because you USED TO walk on the dark side ...smh

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @matadora1978 Hey Jess! I was actually just having a conversation early this morning with someone regarding the EXACT same concern! What I said to her was that I doubt that your old listings would affect you today, unless you were selling non-authentic items, and a buyer was to go back into your sales history, see that you sold something that was a knock-off, and judge what you sell today based on that (cont)

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @matadora1978 I don't think that many people would take the time to do that! Lol. If your closet didn't have a lot of items in it, and your unsupported items were still fairly visible, I could see it making you nervous, but you currently have 414 items for sale, and over 25,000 followers, so you're doing something right! As long as you keep your closet compliant and full, I would suggest applying for the suggested user program, and to be a party cohost. (cont)

rmccouture @matadora1978 AND, if you are being bothered because of mistakes you made in the past by another posher, report that person for harassment. That's not cool. You are human. You made mistakes. You learned. Just make sure to keep everything on par with posh's supported items, and you'll be cohosting and be made a SU in no time!

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @matadora1978 Don't worry about the past. It's gone. Just use your experience, like I have, help others, find gratitude, and focus on what you've done right, not on what you did incorrectly!

Aug 01Reply

rmccouture @matadora1978 I'm really grateful that you know this is a safe space for you to express your concerns, and very honored that you asked for my input on this matter. I promise it will all work out, and most sales will go just fine because not many people have time to browse through the sold items in your closet!!❤️ ❤️ Amanda

cmoneyyyyyyyy @rmccouture Have you found that PM is really diligent in removing these items and/or users? I feel as though they flood my feed. :(

Aug 11Reply

azrnjen @rmccouture Awesome post. When I first started here I did not realize that some of my nice, quality things were not supported, simply because I saw others posting the same things. I was lucky to meet a few Poshers who were willing to offer advice, so I asked questions and I got kind and helpful answers. I have a long way to go before being "successful" (I'm considering posting a "What Am I Doing Wrong?" thread, still might. But in all, I've met some amazing people, and that alone is worth it.

Aug 15Reply

nic39 I absolutely love this!! I have only been on Posh a few months but see so much unsupported "stuff" It seems like the majority of the people that try to follow me have something unsupported! It's frustrating when they share something of yours and you won't share back! I know at first I was guilty of sharing from closets that weren't compliant but I have tried to be more mindful as of late!

nic39 I hope Posh doesn't hold it against you when you share something supported only to see at the bottom of their closet unsupported items!!😁😂 Because I know I have done it then realized really??!! Sharing😊💕

seahawksfan So while stalking your closet (again!), came across this & realized I had a non-compliant item (which I've since deleted), unaware because I had seen similar items elsewhere on PM. So THANK YOU! And since you are da bomb and obviously know your stuff here, can you enlighten me as to any way to reorganize listings (so sold items are at end, categories can be grouped together, etc.) other than going through & editing every listing?!? Thanks in advance for any insight 😊

Sep 15Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan I'm glad that you were able to identify an unsupported item through this listing. It's so hard in the beginning because there are so many people who sell unsupported items that does seem that things would be allowed that are not (cont)

Sep 15Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan As for organizing closets, Poshmark is still a very young company, and have some things that should be adjusted within their system to make closet organization easier. As it is now, the only way to organize your closet is to share backwards! If the first item in your closet sells, you need to share every item after it to get the sold item to the bottom...

Sep 15Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan I stopped trying to organize by category. It was too hard for me. All of it is very hard for me because I have a brain injury that affects my short term memory, so I forget what I share right after I share it, and have to refresh my page to see what is on top! I try to organize by color. That's exhausting as well.

Sep 15Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan I envy people who just have what they have where they have it. Attempting to organize, especially when your closet is large, is a time consuming and time wasting endeavor. If I could just let go of all attempts to organize by color or category, I would have a lot more time to share other people's closets, and edit and post new items...

Sep 15Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan If you haven't started to organize it yet, I would strongly advise you not to start. The order never comes out the way you share it (things end up next to each other that you separated, and other random system glitches mess up the order). I'm working (unsuccessfully) on letting go of the color coding. It's just too much effort.

Sep 15Reply

seahawksfan Thanks so much. Okay, then I'm doing it right. Argh, I just want to be able to drag and drop! Can't imagine doing that every time when I have more listings posted. I don't mean to sound like a creeper (I'm a sane, normal person, I promise!), but just wanted to let you know your masterful listings have inspired me to up my game as I work on continuing to build and expand my closet 😊

Sep 15Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan I have 478 active listings, and a lot more to post. Trust me, it's not worth the time. Look at @alicatstrut . Her closet is not organized, but it's outstanding! If you haven't seen it yet, you are going to fall in love!

Sep 15Reply

seahawksfan Another great closet I love and I think you would appreciate too, is @ea4020sherlock . Very cool vintage stuff!

Sep 15Reply

cavernata @seahawksfan A note on organizing your closet... I find it gives buyers fatigue and makes them not scroll through your closet. If the first thing I see is 30 pants and I'm not interested in them, I'm probably just going to leave. If I want to see all of your pants, I can sort myself from the top of your closet. I focus on pairing two listings that are visually appealing next to each other. That's my only organization method, other than leaving listings I want people to see often at the top. :)

Sep 16Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan Thank you so much Lisa! @alicatstrut inspired me with her closet (I hope I didn't insult you by saying your closet wasn't organized Ali- I look at the desktop page, so all of the listings show up in rows of 3. My closet would look nothing like it does were it not for my attempt to copy your closet's, style, methodology and visual appeal. You are my hero!) We all need inspiration. I'm happy to have had a positive impact on you!

Sep 16Reply

rmccouture @seahawksfan And I know Elizabeth @ea4020sherlock well! Lol. Her closet is AMAZING!

Sep 16Reply

cavernata Aw, thanks. No, no offense taken, because it is purposely not organized, haha! I do the pairings of two only because the majority of browsers still use their phone to view and that's an easy enough thing to do. :) It's impossible to control for everyone's view so I just do the most common and don't stress about it beyond that. In the feed it's all a jumble with everyone else's stuff, anyway!

Sep 16Reply

rmccouture @alicatstrut Dude, the amount of time that I spend trying to get my "center" photo right (viewing by 3s), only to have a glitch in the app that upsets the entire thing, is ridiculous! Is it possible that I saw your hubby over at Goodwill last week (9/11)? He was trying to buy what I think was a mislabeled shelving unit, but they gave him a hard time and he left. I thought it might have been him, but wasn't 100% so I didn't say hi!

Sep 16Reply

cavernata Haha, nope, not him! If it was the lumber yard and he was trying to buy wood to MAKE a shelving unit, that could have been him. :)

Sep 16Reply

rmccouture @alicatstrut Lol! I didn't think so, which was why I didn't say hi, but wasn't 100%!

Sep 16Reply

seahawksfan Thank you for your helpful advice, both @alicatstrut and @rmccouture ... now if I could just figure out how to focus more on actually cleaning out my closet (which was the original intent) instead of BUYING EVEN MORE STUFF (!), then I'll be all set 😊

sanityscraps Screw the no men's clothes rule, to be honest. I don't believe clothing has a gender. Women can wear pants now, men should be allowed to wear dresses and not have their identities questioned.

Sep 29Reply

sanityscraps I'm not an man or a woman. I'm agender and sometimes wear clothes from the men's section. But I don't believe they're just "men's" clothes. I bought them, I wear them. Their my ungendered clothes. The rule is cissexist, sexist, and needlessly segregates human genders from each other. That rule should change.

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps Hey Becca. Thanks so much for expressing your thoughts on this so clearly and articulately. I totally agree with you that genderizing clothing can have a negative impact on an individual's fashion expression and tastes. There are many women who wear clothing designed for men, and vice-versa. I don't identify the items I post as "women's".

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps A man can buy something he wishes to wear without the label of it being made for women. I don't understand why some people post "women's...." because it seems to me that it should be posted for anyone.

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps That being said, I believe that PM has this limitation in place so that they are able to contain the variety of items coming through the feed, so that we are not flooded with everything from home goods to clothing specifically designed for men. This is a site for women's fashion, and personally, when I'm perusing the feed,

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps I don't want to be seeing hundreds of neckties. I don't think that's sexist. I just think that the parameters are in place to curtail an over-abundance of items that most buyers are not looking for on here. When I come across an item labeled as a "man's shirt", for example, I will usually write discreetly to the seller and advise her to remove the word "man's", as it is unnecessary and makes the item unsupported on this platform.

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps Our society has many stigmas and many molds that do not jive with people. This is the truth, and it is sad. I wouldn't let my preference for style be hampered by what society believes should be; I used to wear my father's jeans when I was in high school. When I wore them, they were no longer "men's" jeans because I was wearing them, and I'm not a man.

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps The philosophical ideology behind some of the rules is absolutely arguable, but at the end of the day, I think that most people find a way to work within the parameters of fashion in their own way, and I try not to put too much energy into fighting rules because I usually lose. I just take what I have and do my best to make it work.

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps We have come a long way as a society, but we still have a lot of growing to do. I would suggest trying no focus less on why the boundaries are here, and focus more on working your style within the boundaries. I have found it a lot easier when I focus less on what should be changed in the world; and focus more on what needs to be changed within me and my reaction to the world.

Sep 29Reply

rmccouture @sanityscraps I am grateful that you wrote what you did, and hope that I supported your argument, while explaining why I think the limitations exist on PM right now. While I get why they could feel like a personal insult to you and how you identify yourself, the reality is that it's about what the majority of people on here look for. No one should be listing an item with a gender attached to it anywhere. Get rid of the male/female labels, and all adult clothing is compliant.❤️

Sep 29Reply

incognito13 @rmccouture beautifully stated...I think a lot of us were there when we we're new. I know I was, and it took a lot of work to become a suggested user after I became compliant. I set my goals and I finally got SU in 2014. If you live in a state like I live in, it is prohibited to ship alcohol of any kind that includes perfume, body spray Etc. so some of this isn't only PM, it's the state laws. I love this post and I think every new person should read it.

rmccouture @mossgirl007 Totally Monica.

That's where I learned my lesson, and thank God I did! You're lucky that you had a mentor who wasn't condescending, and could explain things to you without being offensive. That's the main reason I made this. I had such a hard time listening to people tell me what I had to do...

proverbs_31 @ellebeast Here are some thoughts from my "Posh PFF" Amanda. Selling non-supported items on Posh and taking transactions off of Posh both make your closet "non-compliant" and have the same result. Hope this helps you!

rmccouture @juliejoff OMG Jules! You made my night! I'm thrilled to hear that my listing had a positive impact on you, and helped you to better understand what the rules are. There's no such thing as a bad experience if we can use it to help others! Thanks so much for reading this and letting me know that it made a difference for you! ❤️Amanda

juliejoff It totally did! And so many closets have so much "stuff"! So thank you again and have a great night! I have my eye on a few of your little pretties. We may be having a chat soon :)

chyna726 @rmccouture Could you look at my whole closet and tell me if I am truly compliant? I believe I am now. I have sold some unsupported items in the past that will stay in my closet as sold no matter what. But I believe I don't have any unsupported items in my closet as of today and here on out. But could you take a look for me and give feedback.

Mar 01Reply

serpentinasolis I too had unsupported items. I wish someone had told me because I was also stupid and didn't know/didn't read! I've since deleted ANYTHING remotely questionable!! PM is such an amazing place and I would hate having it turn into a junky free for all!

Mar 04Reply

rmccouture @the1stcloset Hey Gerilynn! I meant to write you back the other day. It's been tough keeping up with PM because my father has been in the hospital. I'm so glad that you identified with my story of pride and entitlement! It's not fun to grow at the speed of pain, but unfortunately, some of us have to learn the really, really, REALLY hard way. The benefit of learning that way is that we actually truly CHANGE! (cont)

Mar 04Reply

rmccouture @the1stcloset There are lots of people who do not believe that people can change, but I know from my experience, and from witnessing the metamorphosis in others, that we can change, if we are willing to. Thanks for recommending this post to others! I really hope it helps! ❤️❤️❤️Amanda

Mar 04Reply

rmccouture @serpentinasolis Hey Sarah! Thanks so much for commenting. Poshmark, in its purest form, is a Utopia for sellers! The fundamental principal that we can only succeed by helping one another achieve just gives me the chills every time I think about it. It's awesome that you've embraced PM's policies, and seen how following the rules is the only way to go here. (cont)

Mar 04Reply

rmccouture @serpentinasolis Many people just don't care enough, or they are not engaged in the community, so they don't understand the magic that happens here when we connect with each other. We are the lucky ones, because we get it. It's a gift, and while it is infuriating to see how disrespectful some people are to Poshmark's rules, I have to remember that those who are ignorant, and those who don't care are missing out. (cont)

Mar 04Reply

rmccouture @serpentinasolis They do not get the gift of support, community, sales, belonging and sisterhood that we, who do cherish Poshmark, have found here. I hope you have a wonderful weekends Sarah! ❤️❤️❤️Amanda

shelpen this is all so right. It takes a lot of time to figure out if the closet is compliant and if you can follow them or if you can like or purchase a product. I have made a suggestion to posh in the past that the don'ts list should go through the feed every day and also across the top above the comment areas. put it in front of everyone every day and then I know for sure it's wrong. Thanks Amanda

May 21Reply

mhelie23 I love your confessions it's so true ~ I'm am so much happier with all the support from all the share groups and PFFs Ive made over the years ~ cleaning out my closet of non-compliant items is the best and most beneficial thing to do. Thanks so much for sharing your story. 💞💝

Jun 04Reply

rmccouture @mhelie23 Thanks so much for taking the time to look at this and comment Mhelie. When I became a SU and cohosted a little over a year ago, PM erased all of my "digressions" because I became a role model, and they want their role models to have done the right thing. I felt it was important to let people know it's never too late to do it the right way, and when it's done on PM, people really can see the benefits. ❤️

Jun 04Reply

karens54 @desireediggsmau this doesn't apply to your closet but you should read through the comments for some enlightening information. Oh, and Amanda @rmccouture helped me more than I can ever thank her for when I first started. She's the best.

Jun 05Reply

thejanismarie Amanda, I am not going to read the whole thread on here. When I co-hosted last May 2015, I gave second chances to Poshers who had made a mistake. I had plenty time to get their closets compliant...many didn't even realize they were non-compliant because they saw it being sold. I made so many newbies and veterans alike, so happy by giving their first host pick! You said this very well!

Jun 22Reply

rmccouture @janismarie Awww. Thanks Janis Marie! I'm so glad you reached out to people. I did the same thing last summer. I got some really great responses, and some not so much responses. One user even blocked me! We weren't allowed to sell swimwear without tags at the time.... Still upsets me because my intensions were to help, but you can't please everyone❤️❤️❤️

packrabbit Please help! 😔 How do I "Right" my closet if I have an unsupported item that I've sold? I can't remove the listing and it's just one item (Curling wand). Trying to learn the ropes....

Jul 27Reply

rmccouture @sherrypd Hey Sherry! I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to put your mind at ease! After you have sold an unsupported item, it stays in your closet- UNLESS you become a party host or a Suggested User. PM doesn't hold a grudge for items you have sold in the past that were unsupported. (cont)

Jul 27Reply

rmccouture @sherrypd If they were to remove an item from your closet, you would have a mark on your record for 30-90 days (I don't know what they're doing in terms on time now) which would automatically deny a request you put in to cohost or be a SU (hopefully you are aware that in order to have either of those privileges, you need to apply to PM support for them) (cont)

Jul 27Reply

rmccouture @sherrypd Once your record is clean for 30-90 days, and if PM decides to allow you to cohost a party and be an SU, they will automatically erase your past transgressions. That's what they did with me. They want their cohosts and SUs to be role models for other closets, so they forgive our transgressions, and erase the old listings (cont)

Jul 27Reply

rmccouture @sherrypd Basically, now that you understand what is allowed to be sold and what isn't, and you stay vigilant to be sure that your closet is complaint, it doesn't matter that you sold something unsupported in the past. You're all good Sherry! Nothing at all to worry about! I hope that this helps you feel better! Thanks again for reaching out! ❤️Amanda

And also those that say I'm a animal.killer..as I wrote it, people that buy shoes, purses belt, pants etc. .are too. The skin that's used is from an animal.

I spoke with Poshmark and they are investigating it and they have to see what she wrote!.or else they would've been gone.

Is it possible that happened, or am I confusing you with someone else?❤️

rmccouture @scotsmanslady Hi Lily! Welcome to Poshmark! I'm so glad that my listing was able to help you a little! Trading is not encouraged, however it is not against the rules. I would just recommend waiting until you get to know people a bit better before you agree to do a trade, as some people can be unscrupulous. As far as I can recall, we are permitted to sell bras. (cont)

Dec 07Reply

rmccouture @scotsmanslady If you really want a comprehensive list of what is and isn't poshable, you MUST check out @queenmumm Brenda's closet. There is a link at the top of her page, which will lead you to her blog, which she updates whenever there's a change in PM selling policies. She also has the most fantastic "Q-Tips" sporadically placed amongst her wonderful items that has helped hundreds, if not thousands of poshers become better sellers.

rmccouture @scotsmanslady She like, my hero and stuff! Whenever I have a question, she's my goto, so I would recommend following her, reading her blog and Q-tips, and just enjoying the tremendous amount of love that she shares with the entire PM community.

rmccouture @heretobuy OMG Lacie! That comment made my night! I didn't know about the rules either when I started selling; I just sold what I saw other people selling.

heretobuy @rmccouture I have sold perfume in the past, I'm not sure if selling perfume is not allowed period, or opened, I sold gift sets I got as gifts, never pulled out of the gift set box, and I also sold perfume that still had the cellophane still around the box, never opened. I sold two bathing suits but both were brand new and still had the tags and that sticker strip they put on the "lady area" of the bottom of the suit. (Hate the 500 character thing, posting another comment lol)

heretobuy @rmccouture I sold a pair of panties and lingerie but they all still had the tags on them, they were bridal shower gifts and I definitely did not need as much as I received! I've also sold makeup, but it was never used, however thanks to your post I am going to definitely read the rules and make make sure I am in compliance! I really did not know! Thank you so much!

Apr 01Reply

nia1113 @shking 💕Check out Amanda's closet!!💕( @rmccouture ) This particular listing helps out with the 'Posh Compliant' closet issue (not that your closet has any issues with that). Some people, no matter how long they've been on Poshmark still continue to list items that are not approved. They are risking (worst case scenario) their closet being closed by Posh!! Also, I feel that a closet looks WAY nicer when only things you can wear or carry (purses)..are displayed! 😍💕😘

nami001 @breauxmode Aww PFF, you're the sweetest. You've grown so much and I couldn't be more happy for you. Your closet is beautiful and you've grown so much.

nami001 @rmccouture Love this listing. Is it ok if I tag people when I come across a non-complaint closet? I'll only tag them if they reach out to me with questions. Can I share this to my feed? This is perfect! Thank you so much for putting this up. Have a fab weekend xoxo

Apr 01Reply

rmccouture @nami001 Thanks Emy! That's what it's here for! A lot of people take advice regarding compliancy the wrong way, and think well-intended Poshers are being nosey or petty. When I became an SU, PM removed all of my listings that were non-compliant, so this was the only way I had to let people know my story. (cont)

Apr 01Reply

rmccouture @nami001 The fact that Poshmark forgives us for making mistakes, and encourages us once we begin to do things the right way is so unusual in our society. It's wonderful that they allow us to amend our ways, get on board, and be embraced! Please tag whoever you feel might benefit from my experience. ❤️

Apr 01Reply

nami001 @rmccouture That's so true, I always tell non-compliant closets that Posh is very forgiving and if their goal is to host a party or become a SU then they need to remove the non-compliant items. I don't reach out to closets that are non-compliant. Most of the time they'll ask me questions on my help page & when I tell them they get super mad, lol. Once this girl told me to mind my own business about her replica & she's the one who asked me to go through her closet..cont

Apr 01Reply

nami001 @rmccouture & give her advice. When they ask about HP or SU and I tell them to remove their non-compliant items they tell me that every one is selling it so why shouldn't they. This listing is perfect! I'm going to start tagging the ones that ask on here. Thank you PFF for putting this up. It's so good to see you btw. I haven't crossed paths with you in some time. Big hugs to you!! Aloha xoxo

Apr 01Reply

rmccouture @nami001 It has been a while since we crossed paths! It's strange how that happens every once in a while! I read somewhere that our experience is our greatest asset, if we use it to help others, we can turn our most challenging times into beacons of light for others who are going through similar despair. (cont)

Apr 01Reply

rmccouture @nami001 I believe that's true; there's no such thing as a mistake if I can use the lesson to help someone else either not make the same one, or work her way out of whatever she got herself into. Aloha Emy❤️❤️❤️

ladialarry Yes. I bought from a seller who advertised authentic Tory Burch shoes. I am familiar with the brand and as soon as I got them O knew they were not authentic. I contacted Poshmark to counsel this person. I hope they did. It just ruins the experience for all of Us

Sep 03Reply

ladialarry Her site is tiffanyduog1 some of her things are ok but just be careful. I have been blocked from her closet for reporting. I hope she was counseled. What I got was good quality but definitely not authentic as she claimed.

Sep 03Reply

rmccouture @ladialarry Hi Diane! Those things do happen, unfortunately. I hope that you were able to return the shoes! PM sends an email to sellers who get things sent back to them for being knock-offs, & if an item is flagged for being a replica when it's active, PM looks into it. Sometimes it's best to buy from Suggested Users, as they have consistently sold authentic, high quality merchandise (cont)

Sep 03Reply

rmccouture @ladialarry My rule of thumb if I'm unsure about the authenticity of an item, or if an item's price is too good to be true is that it probably isn't authentic if the price is too low. I also check the feedback that sellers get before purchasing from them, as well as the items they've sold. Sometimes a little detective work prior to purchase is a wise investment of time! I hope you're having a great weekend, and wish you better luck in your future purchases! ❤️Amanda

Sep 03Reply

ladialarry This person lists authentic items and has a generally good rating. I just think she cheats sometimes and should be watched and counseled. It has made me lose faith in this site that you put it on me. She should be contacted by you

rmccouture @atc_clothing When I became an SU, PM removed all of the "blights" from my account, making me look squeaky clean, but the fact is I had a rocky start. I thought it was important to let others know how I felt I was right, but lost money as a result of my hubris. (cont)

rmccouture @atc_clothing Sometimes we can guide others in the right direction, and other times, they have to learn the hard way! At the end of the day, trying to help others is an estimable act, and you should feel good about your thoughtfulness, whether they appreciate or not! ❤️Amanda

poshstylesbyme Hi 😁! I absolutely adore your closet 💗! I'm a very passionate animal advocate and work with Dolphin Project to educate on the annual horrific slaughtering that happens in Taiji, Japan along with the Faroe Islands. It's my endeavor to speak for the voiceless. All animals included. I'm hosting a party next month yay and would love to feature an item from your closet. Cont....

poshstylesbyme However I cannot do so with ivory 😬. Everyone around the world is burning it as a stand against poaching. So many beautiful Rhinos and elephants have suffered 😢. It's a personal decision on your part. The only way to stop is to boycott. I wish you many sales and a wonderful weekend! 💞 Stephanie

Sep 30Reply

rmccouture @sbreza777 Hi Stephanie. Thank you for your message, and the advocacy you do supporting the banning of poaching. I am also a supporter of poaching bans, and believe that animals slaughtered for their tusks, pelts, etc. is a horrific act. I am selling the ivory pieces on consignment for a friend. I have the paperwork, which I presented to Poshmark, proving that the ivory was purchased way before the ban began. It's all antique, mostly dating pre-1900 (cont)

Sep 30Reply

rmccouture @sbreza777 That being said, I am compromising my ethics by selling it. I don't sell fur, or share it, because even if it's vintage, it is something that I have always had issues with. Ivory should be the same, however I feel that the craftsmanship that went into the pieces has great value. I am a sculpture, and can appreciate the artistry, in spite of the medium. I feel it would be worse to burn the pieces, because then the animal whose life was sacrificed truly was done so in vain. (cont)

Sep 30Reply

rmccouture @sbreza777 It's a tough call for me, but I do appreciate your message, and wanted you to know that my selling of it is not something that I take lightly. I donate a percentage of the sales I make to animal-related not for profit organizations, including the WCN and awf.org to help in the prevention of further poaching.(cont)

Sep 30Reply

rmccouture @sbreza777 I can't say that my conscience is clear, but I do believe that the burning of antique artwork is not something I support, as I do not believe it helps in the efforts to prevent poaching today. I do support your efforts, and understand why you would chose to refrain from supporting my closet as a result of my antique ivory pieces, and wish you the best of luck cohosting your party. ❤️Amanda

Sep 30Reply

poshstylesbyme I understand. Thank you for all that you do! I appreciate your response ☺️. Happy Poshing 💞 Stephanie

Sep 30Reply

poshstylesbyme I will say I completely understand your mixed feelings. I have a full length fur coat that belonged to Marla Maples. I can't sell it. It was given to me by my aunt. I don't know what to do with it. I too will not share fur. However I feel that you deserve to be shown off as a "Thank You" for all you have done and do in regards to people and animals. I've liked a few items to return. When I know what the theme is I'll modify. If you have a preference just let me know 😊. Thank you Amanda! 💗

leighleiben This is awesome! I tell people (politely) too if it seems like they're new or didn't know. I also mention to people that it's the Law when shipping via USPS 2 Day because of the safety of putting explosive items in an airplane. The Fine for shipping those unsupported items can range 1,500 per item, but no more than 30,000! Not worth the safety & health of USPS employees nor the fines! It's so silly when people can just sell the other items on another platform.

Oct 01Reply

rmccouture @leighleiben You're so right Wendy- but people who are selling perfumes or aerosol cans either don't know the rules, or they don't care. People who sell knock-offs clearly are breaking the law, and they have to know that it's illegal, but they don't care either. (cont)

Oct 02Reply

rmccouture @leighleiben My non-compliant items were perfumes and nail polishes, and I also had a Tiffany pen, & Gucci Giant Penguin salt & pepper shakers (I thought because they were made by high-end fashion houses, they would be considered fashion, but I was wrong!) (cont)

Oct 02Reply

rmccouture @leighleiben I totally didn't know that selling perfume & nail polish was against Posh-rules, but when people started to tell me to take certain things down, I think that the way many of them presented themselves came off as rude (or maybe my ego got in the way, as it occasionally does!) A lot of people see others selling things, so they just follow what they see without checking if they can or can't sell it. (cont)

Oct 02Reply

rmccouture @leighleiben More often than not, people are pretty cool about removing items they are unaware are unsupported, but every once in a while, a person comes along who is vehement about his/her right to sell what he/she wants. I always wish them the best, and move on. This is about helping others, but it's also about making sales. I can't waste time trying to help people who don't want to know the best way to win on Poshmark. (cont)

Oct 02Reply

rmccouture @leighleiben I think it's great that you take the time to educate others. That's a sign of true compassion & community. Kudos to you for trying! Don't let the stubborn ones stop you from letting people know they're going astray. Feel free to tag them in this listing if you think it will help. I hope you had a great weekend! ❤️Amanda

rmccouture @2moonfashions Hey Traci! Thanks so much for your lovely message! You totally have my permission to use any part of this listing in your closet. I have found it to be very helpful, especially to Poshers who don't like to be told what they can and cannot sell! I am happy to hear that you overcame obstacles similar to mine, and recognized how successful we can be once we stop fighting the rules. Congratulations on your new Ambassador status! Wishing you all the best❤️❤️❤️Amanda

rmccouture @taniajazmin_ Hey Tania! Thanks so much for reaching out, and for being as mindful about compliancy as you are! It's pretty amazing how many of us mess up when we first start poshing. Were any of your non-compliant items removed by PM? If so, don't worry. PM understands that many newcomers sell things without knowing the rules, and they forgive us after we are compliant for 60 days (cont)

Oct 26Reply

rmccouture @taniajazmin_ (I don't know if that is still the time frame, but I am sure that we are forgiven transgressions (that are caught) after a certain period of time). After that, as long as our closets stay compliant, we are able to apply to become PM Ambassadors. Just keep doing the right things, and the right things will happen for you. (cont)

taniajazmin_ Thank you for your useful information! I didn’t have any of the non-compliant listings removed. But I just fulfilled the requirements to become a posh ambassadors. From my understanding, they will likely review my closet, which is my concern. Unfortunately those listings are sold😔 I sent an email to Poshmark Support, if there is any way to remove them since it was a mistake😔

rmccouture @jjulibean Wow Lauren! That's crazy news! I haven't heard anything about Poshmark kicking people off before (but I've had experiences with several unethical sellers, who should have been banned for doing far worse things than listing non-fashion items). I hope that Poshmark gave your neighbor a few shots to redeem herself before kicking her off. If they hadn't given me a second chance, I don't know what I would have done. (cont)

Nov 02Reply

rmccouture I had a terrible experience with eBay years ago, and when I tried to fix it, I couldn't because eBay is a big machine. One of the many things that I love about Poshmark is their humanity; it's made up of real people, with faces who we can meet at Posh-Events, as opposed to other selling sites, where there are no communities or connections. (cont)

rmccouture @kitty2528 hey sweet girl. I can't tell you what to do, but I can tell you what I did. People were giving me a hard time about empty perfume spray bottles. I marked them as being not for sale, and wrote to Poshmark. I explained how they were empty, and how they were similar to other compacts or purse utilities, for lack of a better word (cont)

Dec 18Reply

rmccouture @kitty2528 Poshmark eventually wrote me back and confirmed that I was able to sell the empty spray bottles, which I used to fight anybody who told me I couldn't. Right now it's Christmas time, and it's the most wonderful time of the year to sell things! You have so many great things in your closet, I don't think it's worth fighting over combs when there's so many other things you could be selling.(cont)

Dec 18Reply

rmccouture @kitty2528 I was also selling Tiffany pens, and those turned out to be non-compliant, so I took them down. I don't need anybody not sharing my closet because of a pen! Like I say in this posting, I have to ask myself how important is it really? (cont)

Dec 18Reply

rmccouture @kitty2528 At the end of the day there are other platforms to sell things on, and I don't need to fight or exert energy that's unnecessary when I have so many other things to sell on Poshmark. That's just my personal experience and opinion. I respect whatever you decide to do.❤️

silverstar257 @rmccouture Hi Amanda! This post is so informative. It actually helped me clean up my closet last night. I’m new to Poshmark (started in Dec.) and I made a mistake of posting unsupported items due to unawareness. I wonder if I can use your listing here to talk about my experience and help other newbies not make the same mistake as I did. Also, what do I do if people have bought my unsupported items? I haven’t sent them yet because USPS is closed on Sunday and Monday (Martin Luther King Day).

rmccouture @emmielhayes Thanks so much Emmie! I felt that it was important to share my experience on how we really do succeed on PM when we stop fighting the rules, and start being team players.

Your closet is so amazing 😍👏🎉thank you again for another great posting of information😃

amandaconway I was surprised to see used make up on this site. I thought: « who buys that? « There are many things that definitely make the site look like a flea market. But it’s hard to be black and white on used items. Someone’s trash might be someone’s treasures. And most things if not wearable can be used specially by creative people! I hope I am complying.

Jun 06Reply

shelpen good for you! I have reached out many times very gently to new poshers to enlighten them on things in their closet. Most have been very appreciative, but one or two have been kind of nasty. That’s OK. I have never sold anything non-compliant but one time I bought something that was noncompliant and felt just as guilty as if I had sold it. So I haven’t done that again either. You’re a trooper. Sondra

mosolly I love your closet, but admittedly I’m really tired of seeing this posting. PoshMark has so many sets of eyes that vet items regularly I find it unnecessary. Also as a healthcare practitioner I always think of compliance in regards to following medical protocol,etc. or flight safety items, or travel safety etc. things that are truly life impacting.

Jul 27Reply

rmccouture @mosolly Hi Mo! Thanks for your feedback, and understand both & appreciate where you are coming from. I have had this listing in my closet for 3+ years, & from what I've been told, it has helped many Poshers see the benefits of being compliant before they have items taken down, which avoids jeopardizing their abilities to succeed on PM.(cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly I understand why this may seem superfluous to you; however you strike me as someone who didn't have the same attitude as I did when I first began Poshing. I have been able to reach very reluctant Poshers through the use of my personal experience, and feel that it's important for certain types of non-conformists (or those who feel "entitled," as I did) to see where I came from, how and why I changed, and where I am now. (cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly When I became a SU; Poshmark took down all of the sales of non-compliant items I had made, because as a SU, I was a role-model, so they needed to manipulate my mistakes in order to show others how to Posh. I didn't want my past to be erased. I wanted people to know that PM is forgiving, and that we can redeem ourselves when we change our ways, and follow the rules. (cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly Yes, there are many eyes that report non-compliant listings to PM, and have their listings taken down; however many people don't understand how being compliant (a word which may people detest) is the only way to succeed on PM. They continue to try to manipulate the system, & don't see how they're losing. (cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly My story had been shared with many Poshers, & I have had the honor of receiving an abundance of gratitude for sharing it. Some people need a first-hand account of how doing the right thing actually works, because they've been hurt, or burned in other parts of their lives when they did the right thing and lost. (cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly If I can still reach just one wayward Posher, & my experience helps her/him to change his/her ways, it's worth it to me to keep it up in my closet. I received a stamp of approval on this listing from Manish, the CEO of Poshmark, when I first created the listing, & I have been blessed to spread the message of compliancy in a unique, personal way. (cont).

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly I am sorry that you are tired of seeing this Mo, as you most likely never needed to read this story in order to follow the rules; but there are others who really do need to hear a first hand account of how being compliant is the only way to "win" on PM. They need to hear how I hated the rules too. They need to know that I felt the rules didn't apply to me...(cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly I went from being non-compliant to having over 250,000 followers. That is a tremendous attestant, and inspiration to others who feel the way I once felt, & I want to help as many people as I can, so I am going to keep this listing in my closet. If I can help just one person succeed as a result of identifying with my rebellious attitude, and how changing it turned me into a winner, it's worth keeping it up... to me at least.

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly I do apologize if the listing bothers you, but hopefully you understand that there are some Poshers with amazing potential, who just don't get the ides of following rules. They are the ones who benefit most from hearing my story. (cont)

Jul 28Reply

rmccouture @mosolly I still feel responsible to admit to others that my closet was not what it is today in the beginning. I have to remember where I came from. It keeps me humble, and more grateful than I could ever express. Thanks again for your feedback.I hope that you can tolerate this listing a little more now! Happy Poshing! ❤️Amanda

rmccouture @carolineofparis Of course you can use this! People need to know, and I think it's helped a lot of people understand why we "win" when we're compliant. The only thing I would ask would be for you to tell your story, using your own words. If you use mine, people will recognize it, and it will lose it's authenticity, if that makes sense. (cont)

Apr 18Reply

rmccouture @carolineofparis I think that the more people are honest about what they did when they first started selling on Poshmark, and each tells her story in her own, individual way, it will make each story more powerful, and cause more of a positive effect in the community. What do you think?

Apr 18Reply

marymccreery Hi. Very excellent listing. I’ve run across multiple poshers recently that have listed and already sold “non-compliant” items. Am I wrong to assume PM is paying attention and will notify them? Mary

May 21Reply

rmccouture @marymccreery Hi Mary! Thanks for appreciating my listing! I too sold non-compliant items when I first started Poshing. I did so out of ignorance, because I didn't bother looking up Poshmark's guidelines, and just sold what I saw other people selling. Poshmark removed the non-compliant listings when I became a Suggested User (now known as an Ambassador) (cont)

May 22Reply

rmccouture @marymccreery That was why I decided to create this listing, because I wanted people to know that if they changed their bad selling practices, Poshmark would reward them. Unfortunately, Poshmark only has so many employees, & they really only remove reported items. (cont)

May 22Reply

rmccouture @marymccreery If I reach out to someone to let him/her know that items are not poshable, and the items remain up for sale, I will flag the item as non-compliant. I have actually flagged entire closets as being non-compliant, when there are enough items that are not supported to sell on Poshmark present. If PM isn't told, they most likely won't catch people doing the wrong thing.

May 22Reply

marymccreery Hi! Thank you for taking the time to answer my question. As a new Posher, I know when I’ve seen Xbox items or decor like I have in the last 24hrs I’ve wondered how they have gotten by with it. Most of who I saw won this weekends love it or list it. So going through support is the first best route, but how do I tag the listing to support?…I really don’t know how to tag people well without typing them in...🙄 Blessings to you...Mary

May 22Reply

rmccouture @marymccreery You're very welcome Mary! I wouldn't say flagging the item first is the best way to go in every situation. Some people literally have no idea about what they're allowed to sell on PM. If I see an amazing closet with beautiful, compliant items, that has 2 or 3 items that are non-poshable, I will usually send the seller a private message through a bundle, and let her/him know that they should check out the guidelines. (cont)

May 22Reply

rmccouture @marymccreery If it's a closet that is filled with designer counterfeit bags, clearly is showing no respect for Poshmark or the community, and advertises for their shops on other sites, those are the closets I flag. Next to where it says "Like" "Comment" "Share" is a box that says "Report Item". A drop down menu will appear, giving you options to choose from, explaining why you're reporting an item. (cont)

May 22Reply

rmccouture @marymccreery Simply click on the purpose, and rest assured that PM will take care of it. If it's an entire closet, go to the sellers front page, and you will see 3 dots in the upper right side of the page. If you click on that, you will have the option to report a closet, using similar comments on those used to report a listing. I hope this isn't too confusing! It's way too early for me to be writing!
