The updated Seller Policy establishes explicit requirements for how sellers must describe items, price products, and fulfill orders on Poshmark. Sellers are now required to provide accurate descriptions with original photos, truthfully represent item condition, respond promptly to buyer questions, avoid excessive listing removal and reposting, and ship items immediately after a sale is confirmed. The policy states that violations may result in account restrictions or termination at Poshmark's sole discretion. Sellers should review the full policy to understand all obligations.
