happylife1014Thanks so much for this info!! I had this happen with a bundle but when I requested new lable it charged my balance for the cost. I wasn’t provuded with option to charge seller?

Mar 12Reply

mlb1006@jabelanger The Seller does need to pay for the extra postage but having this information will help you when you finalize your offer to the buyer!

Mar 12Reply

happylife1014@mlb1006 I will know this going forward. I didnt think about it before I accepted her offer. So do you just let them know it will cost more to ship and then counteroffer with the extra postage calculated in?

Mar 12Reply

mlb1006@jabelanger Yes you do have that option, unless it’s a great bundle and you want to pay for it yourself.

_the_rackif the package is 7 pounds does the buyer pay regular shipping and the seller pays the upgrade fee of $8? or the buyer is free shipping and the seller pays a total of $8 to ship?

ghsmermaid@indianajoe With respect to shipping fees, I thought you might find this helpful. Poshmark has a 5 lb limit until the buyer is responsible for paying shipping. When fees are deducted from items on final markdowns that the seller is already either losing money on or maybe breaking even on, it destroys the possibility of any profit margin for the seller.

jessmechele@mlb1006 I have a question and would love anyone’s feedback... someone bought bundle of 5 pairs of men’s jeans. I upgraded my label to the 10lbs but total weight was 10.4. Now my package is not getting scanned despite my hand delivering it to post office. Could the extra .4 have been an issue? They gave me impression I was good to go but now I’m worried lol. Thanks so much for the helpful info 💞

May 17Reply

mlb1006@jessmechele You mentioned that you went to the Post office, so didn’t they scanned it then?

May 17Reply

jessmechele@mlb1006 yes they did it’s just not saying scanned here on the app so I was thinking uh oh did I do something wrong. I’m new to poshmark and never sold anything quite so heavy. I was dropping off items for 2 other sales that both say scanned by usps on their status but the big box doesn’t

May 17Reply

jessmechele@mlb1006 it may just be a fluke I just thought I’d ask. I’m prob overthinking it just a bit paranoid since it was such a large order.

May 17Reply

mlb1006@jessmechele Oh then don’t worry, sometimes it takes awhile for the APP to update the shipment. I would wait and see if by tomorrow it’s tracking.

shopping_is2funThanks! That happened to me today when I sold six pairs of discounted shoes to one person… The 10 pound box label completely took all of the sales balance! It would’ve been more expensive at the post office, though. But hat’s OK, it’s a learning experience, she will be happy, and I will hopefully build happy and loyal clientele!

_the_rackHave you ever mailed something over 10 pounds? One of my bedding sets with many likes weighs 15 :(

Jun 25Reply

mlb1006@_the_rack No I have not had anything over 5lbs. You should put the extra cost of shipping on the final price so you don’t have to pay extra.

Jun 26Reply

_the_rackIf 10 pounds is $20 extra I wonder how much 15 would be 🤔

Jun 26Reply

mlb1006@_the_rack You should reach out to PM and ask them how much and then compare that with what the Post Office would charge you.

Jun 26Reply

_the_rack@mlb1006 i did ask and they told me to make two bundles... I'm like um it's a comforter lol am I supposed to take the pillows and ships seperately 😝

Jun 26Reply

_the_rackTheir shipping options are archaic. Adding home items bedding sets are heavy. Just saying 😂 I guess I have the option to sell it elsewhere but if I want to sell here they should accommodate... idk girlfriend. Super lost

Jun 26Reply

mlb1006@_the_rack Yeah that doesn’t make sense!

Jun 26Reply

mlb1006@_the_rack I would just mark it up so it covers the shipping.

Jun 26Reply

prettydevilleI sold a baby pillow and though the box only weighed 7 lbs, the post office told me even the upgraded $19.99 heavier weight label from Posh didn’t cover the overage postage cost from box being “oversized”. Have you ever had this issue? I emailed Posh as I see plenty of people have sold this type of item and I’m sure no one paid $117 priority or $64 ground to ship theirs! Will let you know if they have a solution for this situation. 💕💕💕💕

Jun 29Reply

mlb1006@prettydeville OMG that’s how much they told you it would cost? ! I’ve never had an oversized package yet but that’s insane! Please let me know what they say.

Jun 29Reply

ivymasters@prettydeville WOW, I would definately put that thing in one of those storage bags then and suck all the air out of it so that it would fit in a smaller box!

Jul 05Reply

prettydeville@ivymasters @mlb1006 Ended up just cancelling but Posh says their shipping label (whatever weight up to 10 lbs) only supports a box up to a combined length and girth of 108”. Good to know! So even though the dockatot I sold had a combined length and girth of about 75” I couldn’t find a long flat box to ship it in. Whomp whomp!

jcwolfI had a customer purchase a large bundle (14 items total). When I weigh my box on a bathroom scale, it says 9.6 lbs. I understand how to upgrade my shipping label and purchase the new label for $19.95, but can I use the original shipping label that was emailed to me and package 5 lbs with that label and then just purchase a heavier weight poshmark label for $3.99 and package the remaining clothes...so the buyer receives 2 boxes?

Jul 26Reply

mlb1006@jcwolf I’m not sure if you can have two separate packages for the same buyer. I’ve never had to deal with such a large bundle. I’ll tag my PFF who has shipped big bundles to customer. @tapshe

Jul 26Reply

mlb1006@tapshe Sheri can you help this Posher with shipping a large bundle package. 😘

Jul 26Reply

tapshe@jcwolf @mlb1006 I agree with with Maria. I don’t think you can send two separate ones. In the past I’ve weighed all the iambs before shipping to find the cheapest way to do it. And then sometimes we just make two separate sales as the $14 obviously would be cheaper than the 19. Also depending on the size I have negotiated that I would pay for one of the shipping but that’s up to you.

Jul 26Reply

tapshe@jcwolf So you have the option of possibly canceling the shipment and doing two separate sales or just packing it up and go to the post office have them weigh it and see how much additional you would owe. Then determine if you just ship it shipping or if it’s significant balance then you may want to address it a different way with the buyer. hope that helps. Let me know if you need anything else.

Jul 26Reply

mlb1006@tapshe Thank you so much! 😘

poppiesposhmarkDo I understand the shipping correctly: if I sale an item that weighs 9 1/2 lbs. the buyer pays $6.95- then I upgrade to a 10 lb label and pay $19.95— making a total cost of $26.90 to ship a 9 1/2 pound package?

Jul 29Reply

mlb1006@poppiesposhmark I’m sorry I missed your questions! Yes you’re correct, the seller pays for the extra postage needed.

missymarie1919This was nice to read!! So is it the cheapest option to just upgrade the postage at the post office instead of getting a new label?

Aug 12Reply

mlb1006@missymarie1919 I haven’t tried it but you can always request a new upgraded label and compare it with what the PO will cost and use the cheapest option.

karlie63Hi there, could you tell ....say if a package weighed 10 pounds...is that 19.95 total or is that added after the normal 6.79 Thanks so much!

Sep 10Reply

karlie63Sorry ...just found the answer above ...so it is added on the original 6.79 shipping totally 26 something

Sep 10Reply

karlie63This thread has been soooo helpful ...Thank you!!

Sep 10Reply

mlb1006@karlie63 Yes that’s correct! But you the seller pays the extra shipping cost. Also always go to post office and ask how much extra postage would cost. It may be cheaper than downloading the extra label.

Sep 10Reply

karlie63@mlb1006 Gotcha ...and with the post office these days size does matter...I am in Michigan...if I were shipping to California shipping may cost 80.00 on some things compared to someone on the east coast say New York...would be lets say 24.00 ..the location is huge on shipping cost...sometimes postal service is better sometimes poshmark is better...I live in a tiny town and our postal workers are a bit behind the times so I would have to check with them I guess before printing any label.

csrrscFyi - I tried to do Option #2 and my post office said it was not possible for me to pay them the difference for a heavier package, because the label generated does not show them what has already been paid for the shipping.

Oct 10Reply

mlb1006@csrrsc Really? Even if you told her the postage is $6.79 she wouldn’t let you pay the extra postage.

Oct 10Reply

mlb1006@csrrsc BTW, was your package one item that was over 5 lbs or multiple items?

Oct 10Reply

csrrsc@mlb1006 yes, I shared that, but she said it's not on the label so they had no way to confirm. Mine was a bundle and it was just barely over the 5lbs - under 6, the postal worker actually said "they may not catch it in scanning, you could try sending it" so I did, and it was delivered w no issue. But I would not count on that! USPS is cracking down a bit.

Oct 10Reply

mlb1006@csrrsc I guess it depends on the Post Office. The one I go to told me I can pay the difference but I decided to upgrade my label instead and I printed two copies and shipped my two heavy items separately with no problems.

Oct 10Reply

mlb1006@csrrsc Read jeannecaddy comment above! I tried it for the first time and it worked!

Oct 10Reply

mlb1006@jeannecady I just received an email from Poshmark letting me know that usps has informed them that shipping labels are being used more than once and my orders have shown up in their report. I had a feeling this would happen. Anyway just wanted to give you the heads up that it’s not allowed.

Oct 22Reply

mlb1006@tapshe Just wanted to let you know that using the same label more than once is not allowed. Sorry for the confusion!

Oct 22Reply

tapshe@mlb1006 no confusion, thanks. I have never used a labor more than once. Thanks for the update though!!

Oct 22Reply

mlb1006⭐️⭐️⭐️ Please do not use the same shipping label for more than one package! It is not allowed per Poshmark’s shipping policy. ⭐️⭐️⭐️

calidreamin101Ty for this! I had to wait 2 weeks for a bundle of 6 shoes because she didn't know how to upgrade. I even mailed my ship label and it sent in 2 boxes one of which got lost..live and learn! It is what it is...the PO kiosk is my friend haha Happy Poshing!🎏🎎🎏🍪☕🎏🎎🎏🍪☕😂😁

Oct 28Reply

mlb1006@st_ahlman_j311 That’s strange she said that! You can definitely pay the PO the extra shipping. Once they weigh the package and tell you how much it would cost, you subtract the Poshmark shipping fee of $6.79 and you pay the difference for the extra postage fee.

mzaffiBe careful on upgraded labels. Calculating for my item i thought I had to have misread, so i emailed them this : "I apologize if this is a redundant question, but after reading the FAQ I’m not completely clear. I think what I’m reading is if for example i sell an item for $50 that weighs 7.5 lbs, my seller fees are 20% ($10) + $11.99 label upgrade fee, totaling $21.99 - which is somewhere around 44% of sale? The extra 2.5 lb therefore more than doubles seller fee". I hadn't misread.

Nov 20Reply

mlb1006@mzaffi You’re correct! The seller pays for the extra label plus Poshmark still takes 20%.

Nov 20Reply

soocuteco@mlb1006 @mzaffi why don’t they credit us the postage the the customer already paid?? I just paid an upgraded 10 lb label for $19!!! If the customer paid the label for 5lb already because they made the offer. Why do we not get the credit for the first $5 lb!

Nov 24Reply

acphelanHi @mlb1006 - If my package weighs 6lbs 3oz - do i need to upgrade to the 6lb shipping ($3.99) or the 7lb shipping ($7.99)? I'm trying to find a polymailer to lessen the weight. Blah!!!

Nov 26Reply

camp8@suziestyle16 I’ve got a similar issue. 19 pounds. Poshmark told me to use my own label but I want to find out if that means I can ship using UPS or FedEx. They told me to send them the tracking info. Not getting speedy response from customer service.

Dec 05Reply

collectiblez@mlb1006 I feel like it's not true but heard it from a posher on reddit. All I know is 27 bucks for shipping a 10 pound package is ridiculous and highway robbery

camp8@jesst42 my issue as a first time seller is that I was unaware the max label weight is 10# through Poshmark. My fault I guess but if they don’t answer me I may as well cancel the sale and sell to the buyer outside of the app.

Dec 05Reply

collectiblez@camp8 good luck trying to convince your buyer to buy outside the app, they'll think you're trying to scam them. annoying all around.

Dec 05Reply

camp8@jesst42 that will be my last resort. Just wish they’d hurry up so I can ship today.

Dec 05Reply

camp8I also find it hard to believe I’m the first to run across the overweight and oversized issue. They should make it VERY clear and not allow the dimensions I put in to the ad.

Dec 05Reply

collectiblez@camp8 I actually didnt know about it until my first sale.

Dec 05Reply

camp8OMG. They just sent me another email with EXACT no-information response. I swear these aren’t real people in customer support.

Dec 05Reply

mlb1006@camp8 Yeah those are automatic responses from your email. I don’t think you’ll get an answer today. Hopefully tomorrow.

Dec 05Reply

collectiblezthought I'd update my situation in case it can help anyone. you CAN pay the difference at USPS you just have to be very persistent. A post lady was reluctant to do it but I took my time and waited for her to get a guy to help me. He charged me a very cheap rate for 10lbs because he subtracted the cost of the 5lbs already paid for by the posh label!! I'm sure he would have done the same thing for packages over 10lbs too. Hopefully that's helpful.

Dec 07Reply

collectiblez@camp8 I would try to ship your 11lb item with the posh label and just pay the difference at the post and be very persistent in doing so. If all goes well they'll measure and weigh you package, calculate the cost for it, subtract the cost of the 5lbs and boom! shipped!

Dec 07Reply

camp8@jesst42 glad it worked for you. Unfortunately my box had to go as 19 pounds (dim-weight). $55 USPS. My only option was to cancel the sale. Live and learn. Oversized overweight items don’t belong on Poshmark. Especially when the support is non existent.

Dec 07Reply

mlb1006@jesst42 Glad it worked out! 🥰

Dec 07Reply

mlb1006@camp8 Did Poshmark reply?

Dec 07Reply

camp8@mlb1006 sort of. I think they are android responses. None of my questions were answered. Only 4 non-helpful emails.

Dec 07Reply

camp8@mlb1006 only selling less than 5 pound items on Poshmark. They’re great for that! :)

Dec 07Reply

collectiblez@camp8 $55 after removing the 5lb cost? That's criminal, especially considering what other places charge. You're right big things belong on ebay where we can at least choose the cheapest shipping. Anything over 2 pounds seems to be crazy overpriced at usps :( Think I'll be removing my bundle feature too just in case I get another heavy bundle.

Dec 07Reply

mlb1006@camp8 Oh no sorry to hear that!

Dec 07Reply

camp8@jesst42 FedEx doesn’t dim weight like USPS and UPS do.

Dec 07Reply

camp8@jesst42 AND Poshmark said I had to do my own label so I would pay $55 and buyer pay the std <5# rate of $6.79. Guess they just pocket that.

Dec 07Reply

collectiblez@camp8 The variation between usps' is crazy too. I had one of the post ladies get on to me about using the flat rate boxes to ship despite this letter: https://www.reddit.com/r/poshmark/comments/89h80a/when_the_post_office_wont_accept_flat_rate/

Dec 07Reply

collectiblezAnd other times the post ladies say nothing.

Dec 07Reply

collectiblezToday the post lady was very reluctant and instead of feeling the pressure or embarrassed by holding up a long line I just stuck to my guns and she went off to find someone that could help me. He took off 5lbs from the price she quoted with the posh label effectively giving me a very very cheap rate. But it took effort!!

Dec 07Reply

collectiblezAnd apparently there's no consistency so who knows what will happen if I have a large bundle again

vintib@jeannecady hi! I just saw your comment on here about printing the label twice. Poshmark doesn’t charge extra for this? If both packages have the same label what if one gets lost but the other one with the same number was scanned as delivered? I’m just surprised this works and it’s really valuable info!

Dec 10Reply

varietycity@st_ahlman_j311 facts! yes.

Dec 10Reply

mlb1006@vintib I did try it twice but it’s not allowed! I was lucky that all the packages were delivered. However, I received an email from Poshmark and a letter from USPS both letting me know that duplicate labels going to the same address is not allowed. I learned my lesson,

Dec 10Reply

vintib@mlb1006 oh yikes! That’s what I was worried about, too. It didn’t sound right to me. Thanks for letting me know! This thread is so helpful!!

Dec 10Reply

mlb1006@vintib I felt terrible after reading the letter. I knew it wasn’t right.

Dec 10Reply

mlb1006@st_ahlman_j311 That’s strange! My PO allows me to pay the extra fee if a package weighs more than 5 lbs. I guess it would be easier for you to just upgrade the postage label on Poshmark.

hsimplyposhI wonder if you could answer my question with oversized boxes 20x20x8 USPS charges the size of the package as well as the weight. I came across an ad selling floral centerpieces " ships within 1-3 days having to use a oversized box (seller: taurance) priority mail costs around $50-70) and to get the address you have to print out the $6.79 label? I am new on poshmark and confused. Hope to hear from you. Thanks HK

hsimplyposh@karlie63 I ship from CA to anywhere in the USA, the postage is a major handicap for me as well selling on the Poshmark platform, at this time they do not offer USPS retail ground ( i.e. box 20x20x10 etc) to NY the freight would be around $23 (up to 9 days travel -time), yet priority mail, under 5 pounds, same box would be about $65. I wish Poshmark would give the seller a choice for larger items to enter the USPS/FedEx etc. routing number for the buyer/seller to track the package.

Jan 28Reply

mlb1006@piergiovanni You can try and see what they say. Sometimes when it’s just a bit over 5lbs it’s accepted but if they say something then just upgrade or ask them how much it would cost to pay the difference.

piergiovanni@mlb1006 okay thanks so much!!

prettyplease14Hi there!!! Ok quick question!!! I’m sending a hockey bag that is about 13 pounds. Any idea how to ship it? Can we print off multiple shipping labels, like a 10lb one and then the 5lb one or don’t even bother with Poshmarks shipping label and pay directly thru the post office? Wish there was an easy way to do this. The box will be quite large, which is why I’m hoping I don’t have to go thru the post office. 😬😬 thanks so much!!❤️❤️

Jan 30Reply

mlb1006@custardboutique I’m not really sure about packages weighing more than 10 lbs. I would reach out to Poshmark and find out how to ship a 13 lb package.

Jan 30Reply

prettyplease14@mlb1006 Sounds good. I sent an email. Hopefully they won’t take too long in responding. I hate to use the post office to send out without having Poshmarks label to easily track it. That would be a bummer. I just sold the hockey bag today, so crossing my fingers I get an answer quickly.😃😃. Thanks for your response!! ;)

Jan 30Reply

abbi_916Anyone know what to do... I realized after I got to the post office my box was 6.5 pounds. I tried to pay the difference and the post office (I asked 3 people) stated they no longer allow you to pay additional on an online prepaid postage I would need to repurchase all together. Has this happened to anyone else? And is this really a new policy? I know it’s my fault for using too much bubble wrap & packing paper but just curious for next time.

mlb1006@abbi_916 I wasn’t aware of this. I will look into it. Thank you for the info.

prettierpieces@soocuteco This is the same question I have ... the seller is paying the for the TOTAL weight, not just the difference? My package weighs 8 lbs, you would think I would chose the 3.99 option (6lbs) to COVER THE DIFF, right? But I think what I am reading here is that I need to choose the 11.97 label for an 8 lb box, is that right?

Feb 08Reply

soocuteco@beachstyle it seems more like they are voiding whatever postage was paid for in the sale. And the seller basically has to pay for the total weight

Feb 08Reply

mlb1006@beachstyle No the seller pays the extra shipping fee if it’s more than 5 lbs. The buyer gets charged the $7.11 shipping rate. You are paying the extra.

Feb 08Reply

prettierpieces@mlb1006 So if my package weighs 8 lbs do I choose the label option that adds the difference to the buyers label ... ie: 6 lbs option + shipping paid by the buyer would be 11lbs right, but when I did that the new label only shows 6lbs. I think I need to choose the 8lb label for 11.95 - but - that means I’m paying for the total weight, not just the difference. Unless my totally misunderstanding.

Feb 08Reply

mlb1006@beachstyle Yes upgrade to 8 lbs for $11.97 which you will be charged by Poshmark.

Feb 08Reply

prettierpieces@mlb1006 ok that’s what I thought, thanks for confirming. What happens to the up to 5lb label from the buyer? Do they still get charged for that PLUS I ALSO pay the entire shipping amount? PM states the seller pays for weight OVER 5 lbs but really we pay the ENTIRE amount. Appreciate your quick reply doll💗

Feb 08Reply

mlb1006@beachstyle Unfortunately we the sellers pay the extra fee which I find to be overpriced. The buyer only gets charged the standard shipping rate of $7.11.

Feb 08Reply

prettierpieces@mlb1006 Hm...so pm is using 11.95 + 7.11 to ship an 8lb package.

Feb 08Reply

mlb1006@beachstyle Correct!

Feb 08Reply

jillwoot@audreyreallen read this - it’s really helpful. They might ship the package back to you if it weighted over 5lbs, we will see.. fingers crossed. Was it over by a lot?

homegirlsclosetMaria I selected the wrong weight on my upgraded label, can I just request new, will I be charged for both?

_babyaloeI need your help!!!! So if I’m using a big box do I add the length + the width (only 2 numbers?) Or am I multiplying?

Feb 22Reply

mlb1006@_babyaloe Yes to get a combined length you add the two and can’t be more than 108”.

Feb 22Reply

_babyaloe@mlb1006 ok so I don’t add the height then just the length and width? :) sorry I’m asking so many ways I’m just worried! I’ll be under 108 if so. Are you aware if a big box require an extra charge if it’s not over 5lbs?

Feb 22Reply

mlb1006@_babyaloe Ok I’m sorry I think you need to add length and girth of box. To get the girth, you add width + height and multiply by 2.

Feb 22Reply

kristenharris2@beachstyle My post office gives me a credit for what their retail cost is for 5 pounds, not the posh negotiated rate that the buyer already paid for shipping. Then they take the difference between the 5 pounds retail rate and whatever my overage weight charge is and that’s what I pay. It’s almost always the cheaper way to go vs. upgrading label through Poshmark. So what I’d suggest doing is going to your local post office before upgrading through Poshmark.

Feb 22Reply

bbs617@kristenharris2 I wish your Post Office could call mine and tell them what they do, because I wouldn't know thw 1st thing tho explain that to them. lol

Feb 24Reply

red_amelie@kristenharris2 A post office an employee kept insisting to just pay the difference at the store and they'll charge the difference to the account. Is this what you're referring to in regards going thru the post office first before upgrading the label thru Poshmark? I was confused with what account the employee was referring to and just said I'd have them weigh it and would rather go back home and repackage/print a new label if needed.

Feb 25Reply

kristenharris2@red_amelie No, I pay the difference out of my pocket at the post office. What I believe your post office was saying to you is if there is a shortage due they would charge back your account which is really PM’s Endicia account where the prepaid label was paid/generated from. If this happens, you will most likely see a charge sooner or later from PM to your account balance to payback the shortage the post office charged to PM’s Endicia account. Hopefully that makes sense.

Feb 26Reply

kristenharris2@red_amelie That’s why you need to explain that you don’t want it charged back to the vendor account, you prefer to have them figure out the difference you owe so you can pay it yourself.

Feb 26Reply

kristenharris2@bbs617 It makes me mad that they all aren’t on the same page. It’s not that difficult to figure out. Sorry girl!

Feb 26Reply

red_amelie@kristenharris2 Will the post office add additional postage as a separate label or will they create a completely brand new one to cover the difference?

Feb 26Reply

kristenharris2@red_amelie No, they leave your label and then add something called a short paid label if I remember correctly. It’s a small postage sticker that they add.

Feb 26Reply

red_amelie@kristenharris2 Got it. Hopefully I'll remember this next time. Have only gone over the 5lbs once. Someone bought 2 coats at the same time. Thanks for the tip!

kattakitty@prettydeville Holy crap. Your post office is horrible and uneducated. If I can google it and/or read the answer directly from usps.com, then a person getting paid to do a govt job should know the rules. A baby blanket? Your package L + W + H can be up to 108 inches. 108. SO I can mail a painting that is 40 x 26 x 5 inches in the box if it's under the PM 10lb max. (40 +26 + 5 = 71 inches = less than 108) Print the policy from usps.com, march back to the P.O. and hold out your hand. Get a refund.

Mar 01Reply

kattakittyI had been referring to the chart for extra weight until tonight, I found your listing here and was wishing customers understood how much extra we pay. It's good to post this so they know. Anyway now I see that it is 4 bucks per extra pound. Now I won't forget anymore. It's + 4, 8, 12, 16, or 20 dollars. For now, ha. It is really easy to go over 5lbs for boots, bedding, coats. You can save some box weight by using 2-3 layers of poly ship bags for soft items. No heels, hard items, delicate stuff.

mlb1006@kingyanjui I’m not sure. I would email Poshmark and ask them if there’s a weight limit.

Mar 04Reply

mlb1006Another option is to cancel the order and make two custom listings and you can still give them the price they paid and the shipping for both would be less than what you’re paying for a 12lb upgrade fee.

Mar 04Reply

mlb1006@babybirdie Unfortunately the upgrade shipping label fee is very expensive for the seller. For an 8 lb package you the seller will need to pay $11.97.

Mar 18Reply

bshaff533@_the_rack The buyer pays their regular shipping price- unless you have given them a discount- then you-the seller -pay the additional $8.... you can adjust your price to include the extra shipping on a single item that you list And when you are pricing a bundle- you can consider the cost of shipping and make an offer that covers or offsets the shipping cost you will pay... all depends on what you are trying to make/ willing to sell the items for. I use a scale to ensure I know the weight :)

hsimplyposhI need help, a buyer purchased 2 items a few minutes apart, both will fit in one box, how do I enter the tracking number on the second item purchased? Thanks in advance. :-(

Apr 03Reply

mlb1006@goaheadshop Oh I would reach out to them and tell them that they can bundle the two items and pay one shipping fee. You can tell them you will cancel order and have them purchase again.

Apr 03Reply

hsimplyposh@mlb1006 I already ran one shipping label, thinking I could add the tracking number to the second item purchased. not sure if I can reach her now, in NM, but I will try that. Thanks again, appreciate your help.

Apr 03Reply

mlb1006@goaheadshop Oh it doesn’t matter if you printed the label, as long as you don’t use it.

jennyjacks_What happens if the order is over 10lbs? I purchased the 10lb label but am afraid the box and items are over that. Will they return it? And,mid so, will I have to buy a label from usps since Poshmark only offers up to 10lbs?

Apr 21Reply

mlb1006@jennybee87 I have no idea. I would reach out to Poshmark and find out.

Apr 21Reply

jennyjacks_@mlb1006 thank you!

mlb1006@jennybee87 Let me know what you find out. I’m curious to know too.

Apr 21Reply

jennyjacks_@mlb1006 will do!

Apr 21Reply

mlb1006@thriftingwithv Sure you can reach out to buyer and let them know how expensive shipping will be with a 10 lb package and make two separate custom listings that are within 5 lb limit. You can adjust the price to cover the shipping cost too.

Apr 22Reply

vickysecretpnkWow, so if it's 10 pounds that would be the buyer paying $6.95 shipping and the seller paying 19.95 for about $27 total shipping. If you offer free shipping than the seller pays the entire $27 shipping fee. Ouch!

Apr 22Reply

mlb1006@vickysecretpnk Yes that’s correct.

Apr 22Reply

betterwithage66@flsnowbunny05 That makes no sense. From my understanding (and my plans/strategies), as long as the package doesn't exceed the 108" (length x 2 + girth x 2) limitations, I thought it was still free shipping. I was planning on trying to sell some of my large buy light-weight items and take advantage of low shipping costs. I researched Poshmark best I could and never found where a package shipping cost went up due solely to package size as long as it was under 5 lbs! What is truth?

Apr 22Reply

mlb1006@betterwithage66 Correct, there’s no extra shipping fee on packages up to 5 lbs but there is a restriction on package size per usps policy.

Apr 22Reply

vickysecretpnk@mlb1006 Thanks, this posting is a great help and you explain the PM postal shipping very well.😁👍

gramspenthouseI tried using a USPS Medium Flat Rate box and the clerk tells me that the box is not the right type because it says Medium Flat Rate on the box (medium flat rate cost $15.50) and Poshmark only paid $6.70 for the lable. I showed her where it says “All Priority Mail Packaging including Flat Rate” at the bottom. She told me that my lable still isn’t sufficient to cover medium boxes, only envelopes. FYI my package was under 5 LBS. Has anyone ran into this issue?

Apr 24Reply

gramspenthouseTo be clear I have used the same size box several of times. This was the first time someone said it wasn’t allowed.

Apr 24Reply

mlb1006@meclothingbrand That did happen to me a long time ago and I printed the letter I received from Poshmark and I showed the letter to the post office clerk and they never mentioned it again. Go to my Helpful Tips II and check out the letter from Poshmark.

jellylovesrickyQuestion: I have a package that weighs just under 10 lbs. Are the extra weight charges additional to the 5 lb limit. For example, if I choose 6 lbs (3.99 subcharge) , is the weight limit now 11 lbs? Or would that be 6 lbs limit?

May 06Reply

mlb1006@jellylovesricky The buyer already pays for the 5 lb limit of $7.11 and the extra weight shipping fee will be payed by the seller. So if your package weights 6 lbs, you the seller will need to upgrade the label and pay the extra $3.99.

clct2016@mlb1006 I have a package that is 6.4lbs, I'm upgrading the label to 6lbs. My question is, how much would the buyer be charged if there is a postage due when they get the box? this is kinda taking a big chunk of my earnings 😑

mlb1006@clct2016 The buyer won’t be charge. Your upgraded shipping label will cover the cost of the package.

kycardinalTks mlb. Couldn't find an answer above. Poshmark only has the option of going up to 10lbs (at an addition cost of $20 to seller). I have a package for a single item that is just over that mark at 11 pounds. Is it possible to use the 5 pound label attached to the email sent from Poshmark after the sale and then pay for the additional weight when I take the item to the post office? If so, will the tracking number be the same so it can be properly tracked by everyone - buyer, seller & Poshmark?

May 23Reply

mlb1006@kycardinal I’m not sure. You can try and ask the post office if you can pay the difference in weight. Some post office give you a hard time with that. Hopefully if they allow it, it may be less. Let me know if it works out.

May 23Reply

kycardinalThanks again @mlb1006. Trying to do the right thing but having a hard time finding any guidance. Have checked PM FAQ's, "Googled", checked Reddit, etc. It's how I found your post on the subject. Assuming I'm not the Loneranger on the subject. Someone has had to have dealt with this before.

hc990this is a bundle of clothes and a purse that weighs 10 lbs. are you telling me that doesn't belong on poshmark,?

Jul 13Reply

hc990I just read some comments and I would like to tell what I found out. my PO says you can't add postage from them to the label from posh. also, I accidentally put a label on a package which I had already used. that person is correct. it went to the address on it although it was the wrong address and it had already been used. before this I thought once you used the postage of $7.11 the label would be no good but apparently you can use it as many times as you want.

Jul 14Reply

mlb1006@hc990 Poshmark doesn’t support packages over 10 lbs. If you do send it, the buyer will get charged for the additional fee.

Jul 14Reply

hc990all I see is bundle, bundle, bundle. I guess it should be bundle but keep it small. no selling too much. it's against posh policy to sell big bundles 🤨🤨🤔. maybe that's why I see all that old used wrinkled underwear on there. it doesn't weigh much.

Jul 14Reply

hc990@mlb1006 regarding your remark about not selling heavy items. you sell jeans and boots. I guarantee it wouldn't take many pairs of jeans and boots to weigh 10 lbs or more.

Jul 14Reply

hc990@mlb1006 I will send it. since the buyer bought it I'm sure she expects to receive it. it's just some clothes, jewelry and 2 purses. it doesn't take that much. especially if there is any denim involved.

Jul 14Reply

mlb1006@hc990 If a bundle gets too heavy, you have the option to separate into smaller bundles and let the buyer know that they would need to purchase the separate bundles.

Jul 14Reply

hc990@mlb1006 I know that now. I haven't been at this very long but I'm learning. now I think I can judge how much it might weigh and get the buyer to split it up. I hope that won't be too much trouble for a buyer and make her change her mind.

rodgersthatx06I can't seem to find an answer about shipping large wall art. If it weighs under 5 lbs then Its the 7$? Over 5 to 10 is up to $20. Does the size of the item matter? For example a piece of art that is 5' x 5' lets say. Thanks.

Jul 17Reply

mlb1006@rodgersthatx06 Poshmark uses USPS Priority Mail for all US orders. Per USPS policy, the maximum combined length and girth of the box used must be no greater than 108". This means that the combined measurement of the longest side and the distance around the thickest part of the box cannot be more than 108".

Jul 17Reply

rodgersthatx06@mlb1006 Length and girth - Does that mean from corner to corner or around the longest side? Thanks so much!

Jul 17Reply

mlb1006@rodgersthatx06 It’s longest length + girth Measure the width of the package, rounding to the nearest inch. Multiply this number by 2. Measure the height of the package, rounding to the nearest inch. Multiply this number by 2. Add these two numbers together. This is your girth.

Aug 04Reply

mauishopgirlThis thread was helpful, TY. For dimensions (DIM), USPS will charge DIM for packages > 1 cu ft (h x w x d = > 1728). If >1728 then divide by 166 to get the pounds rate level, which will be >10 lbs at that point. Just google “dimension USPS resellers”. So I try my best to reduce my box 📦 size so it’s below 1729 by cutting the 📦 down.

fashion_weeks@mlb1006, if the buyer pays the initial $7.11 for shipping and the actual cost is $11.97 (this was the actual amount for a package I sent) shouldn’t Poshmark only take the difference from the original shipping amount? If they don’t, it seems that the buyer and seller are paying for shipping? Please clarify for me, if possible. TY

kav4454@mlb1006 thank you

mrsnordeen@mlb1006 they took it from my credit. Curious though, What if your weight is in the middle of the whole numbers. For example the package I just sent was 8 lbs. 5 oz. I had to come up with the postage for the extra 9 pounds which made it was $15 I had to pay.

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@ghsmermaid they buyer still pays up to 5lbs. After that the seller makes up the difference.

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@flsnowbunny05 probably because it past the threshold of how large the package could be. There is a max size on the box too

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@flsnowbunny05 Ashlie the buyer has to cover the postage up to five dollars. The seller has to make up the difference it would cost for the extra postage. I can only imagine what it would’ve cost the seller if we were responsible for the whole amount

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@simplycassandra that’s in addition to what the buyer is already paying so technically the postage is $3.99 plus the $7.11 to send a 6 pound package

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@missymarie1919 Actually I believe Poshmark is actually cheapest. My 8 1/2 pound box would’ve cost me 60 some dollars to send by post office on my own versus the additional 16 I had to come up with. So my box is now costing only about $23 to send versus the post office wanting 60 something

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@mlb1006 An 8 pound label would only cover up to 8 pounds he would have to go up to the 9 pound label

Sep 07Reply

mlb1006@mrsnordeen Hi from what I’ve heard, if a package is 8.5 lbs, an 8 lb label would work.

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@mlb1006 that’s what I thought but the PO by me told me to go with nine. They would have returned the package to me, sent it on asking the buyer for the extra postage, or charge me if it was scanned while I waited. It’s so much cheaper to add the extra pound through Poshmark than to risk what the post office will charge.

Sep 07Reply

mlb1006@mrsnordeen ok thanks I’ll look into it and see what Poshmark says.

Sep 07Reply

mrsnordeen@mlb1006 I would be interested to know what they say. But either way I figured it was a small investment on my part to up it another pound just to make sure. But anyway, let me know because im curious to see what they say. Who knows, maybe my particular says it one way and another something different. I’m going to ask the one by work too.

ghsmermaid@mrsnordeen 👍 That 2 ounces over is always fun. Then we just get creative by cutting off an unnecessary box flap or two. 🙂

danielazariahQuestion, to anyone that can help me. I recently sent out a package that was @ 5lbs and 7oz on my scale, would that still be considered part of the “up to 5lbs free label upgrade” or not?

Sep 09Reply

mlb1006@danielazariah Hi I was under the assumption that it was ok as long as it’s not 6 lbs, but according to Poshmark you should use the upgrade label of 6 lbs.

Sep 09Reply

danielazariah@mlb1006 I was thinking about upgrading. But was too stupid to do so and sent with original label

Sep 09Reply

mlb1006@danielazariah I had reached out to them asking if a package was 8.5 lbs should I use the 8 lb or 9 lb label. This was their response: Hi Maria, Thank you for reaching out to us in this regards and we are glad to assist you. As a kind suggestion, at this moment, we request you to go ahead and generate a 9 lb label to avoid any shipping issues.

Sep 09Reply

danielazariah@mlb1006 thank you. I’ll keep this in mind

Sep 09Reply

mlb1006@zoriglory That’s correct! You’re playing for the additional postage fee.

mitmwI wasn’t aware of this till now and dropped off a suitcase in a large Amazon box to Post office yesterday. They have a drop off section so I never spoke to anyone. Now I see the other packages I dropped off were scanned but not this one. Does anyone know what they’d do with the package??

Oct 09Reply

mlb1006@mitmw Di you know how much it weigh?

Oct 09Reply

mitmw@mlb1006 no :( no clue lol

Oct 09Reply

mlb1006@mitmw If it gets send to buyer, the buyer may get charged for the extra postage needed.

Oct 09Reply

mlb1006@ggofis73 Yes unfortunately Poshmark doesn’t support anything over 10 lbs.

Oct 10Reply

shastatudorI’m at 10 pounds 9 Oz on a bundle package of clothes. What are my options?!? 😕 help!

Oct 11Reply

mlb1006@shastatudor You would need to get the upgrade label for 10 lbs. and you should be good

Oct 11Reply

shastatudor@mlb1006 thank you! I didn’t know if it was 10 pounds even or 10 pounds plus so Oz. I will upgrade and try it. Fingers crossed!

Oct 28Reply

mlb1006@hailey_love No you need to use one box that fits the item and if it exceeds 5lbs then you need to upgrade the shipping label.

Oct 30Reply

acolichWow. I really wish that Poshmark stated more clearly somewhere that their shipping doesn't support packages over 10 lbs. I just sold a stroller on here, and with packaging weighs over 20 lbs. I contacted customer service to see if I can pay for my own label through FedEx (I'm happy to pay for it myself at this point) and still have the item track so that I can get paid, but may end up just having to cancel the order.

Nov 03Reply

mlb1006@acolich Yes unfortunately it’s not stated in their guidelines. I reached out to them and that’s what they told me.

Nov 03Reply

amandar811@acolich hey I just did the same thing, selling something over 10 Lbs but happy to pay for shipping on my own with my own tracking, did they let you not use the shipping label and just pay for the postage on your own?

Nov 14Reply

acolich@amandar811 nope. I ended up canceling the order and selling to the same person on another app. I just didn’t want to risk something happening like it getting lost or stolen or the buyer claiming it never showed up, and me being out the $$$.

mlb1006@susan74nj You’re welcome! 🥰

mlb1006@wanderingposher I don’t think you’ll get charged if you used the original label. But feel free to email Poshmark to make sure it’s correct.

Dec 05Reply

nicoles_shop_If my package weighs 6.13 lbs, do I need 7 lbs ($7.98) or can I swing a 6 lb label for half the price $3.99 ?? This is my first time going over limit and now I’m barely going to make money 🙄

Dec 22Reply

mlb1006@nicoles_shop_ You should be fine using the 6 lb label

Dec 22Reply

nicoles_shop_@mlb1006 ok thank you so much! The post office worker said he’d do the 7 lb label, but that sounds crazy when it’s only 0.13 over. I could always pay him the difference in person for the 0.13 right?

Dec 22Reply

mlb1006@nicoles_shop_ For some reason my post office doesn’t allow me to pay the difference. It would make sense.

Dec 22Reply

nicoles_shop_@mlb1006 ok thanks again! Yes it would - only like 0.39 extra lol

Dec 22Reply

ltreeves@mlb1006 don’t understand printing the label twice. It seems it would have the same barcode. And even if it didn’t, why is this not considered theft. What am I missing?

Dec 29Reply

ltreeves@collectiblez how does one remove the option to bundle?

Dec 29Reply

ltreeves@mlb1006 can you show me where usps says this is ok? My post office says anything over the next pound increment needs to go up to the next pound for shipment.

Dec 29Reply

ltreeves@mlb1006 unfortunately increasing the piece on an item to cover potential bundling may make the item uncompetitive on price. Is there a way not to allow bundling

Dec 29Reply

ltreeves@mrsnordeen my po says the same. Must bump up to the next pound pricing

Dec 29Reply

mlb1006@ltreeves Someone mentioned awhile ago that they printed the label twice to use on multiple packages to the same address but I was told from Poshmark that it’s not allowed.

Dec 29Reply

mlb1006@ltreeves I read a comment from another Posher that as long as it doesn’t exceed the next pound then you’re good to use the current pound. Ex 6.4 can use a 6 lb label

Dec 29Reply

mlb1006@ltreeves When someone bundles a few items you can always send them your best offer and negotiate a good bundle price.

Dec 29Reply

red_amelie@mlb1006 To my understanding, all shipping companies round up to the nearest pound. 6.4 would be rounded u to 7.

Jan 05Reply

mlb1006@red_amelie Sure to be 100% safe going up to the next pound works!
