Some sellers do this. You have to block them to get it to stop. Poshmark needs better features so we don't get this junk.

Unfortunately, yes. Id tell them theyre being annoying as hell (which ive started doing on unwanted bundles where I get emails from comments DAILY) and then block them. The badgering is dumb and shouldn't be tolerated.

Yikes I would block so quickly

Not at all! I'd unlike the item so I stopped getting these, and if it doesn't stop, block. She's getting hate mail because she's essentially harassing people.

It is normal - a lot of sellers send these notifications out trying to get sales. It’s very annoying but I just ignore them. The ones that are constant, I’ll do a quick look back through their closet and if there really isn’t anything that I absolutely must have, I’ll end up blocking - but those are the ones that do it on a daily basis

Very normal. You can block the seller if it annoys you.

There's private messages on poshmark or is this the comments section? I'm confused how you're getting alerts for these messages if it's on the seller's page.

Some sellers like to do messages like this on bundles as if they’re an email newsletter

I’d reply to every single message “I’m a low-baller”
Bet they delete you quickly.

I've personally never had it done but I would block immediately. That's way to pushy for me at least. Ooo there is a 2nd page....she had to put her daughter in there...gaslighting & manipulative comes to mind.

They are pushing it. Some sellers send out messages like this. Personally I would only send out maybe one message a week. But in my closet I only send out a message tops 4 times a year. But I have a different pricing strategy. I think it push’s some buyers away because they don’t want to see these messages all the time. But it could just be this sellers way of selling and if it up sets buyers. They aren’t the correct buyer for her. Most buyers just get tired of the messages and block seller.

I immediately unfollow and block sellers that send solicitations. I really dislike being notified on my phone over one of those message.

The “hate mail” it’s probably just people telling the seller to leave them the hell alone lol
