Looks like it might be an option but I have never heard of it. Just did a quick read and the one thing I like is their flat rate shipping . It's $7.95 for items under 3 pounds BUT they have a $4.95 rate for items under a pound ( and they mention a cheaper rate for smaller items but don't say what it is). I wish Poshmark had a First Class rate too.

It can only be used on a iPhone right now. curtsyapp.com/faq/sellingEven if I had an iPhone I doubt I'd sell there. I HATE using my cell phone to list stuff. It takes forever for me and it's hard to read. I'm much faster on a desktop site. Might be a good deal though if one has an iPhone and loves listing on their phone. |

I read that it is a good place for listing, but as Val says, you need an iPhone, which I don't have. Apparently the younger crowd like to shop there.

I missed all about the Iphone. Sorry. I don't have one and I too, can list faster on a desktop. Oh well...

It's funny how many Poshers who started on their cell phone are now admitting (in Posh groups) that doing it on a desktop is so much faster.

Really? I can't imagine Posh being faster on a computer, eBay yes, but Poshmark is so much faster on the phone. With sharing also. When I started I was convinced it was faster to share my closet on the laptop, but I have timed myself several time and the phone is faster.

I just saw I once downloaded the curtsy app, but no clue why I didn't proceed.

When I started I was convinced it was faster to share my closet on the laptop, but I have timed myself several time and the phone is faster. There's no comparison for me - it takes at least twice as long to share prodding that little phone screen and swiping swiping swiping than it does to whip through it on my PC 12 listings per sceen. I can answer questions more quickly, make bundles, etc. I'm sure that depending on how one lists it would be faster on a cell phone if one takes photos and uses any imaging apps, with everything actually on one's phone, but I just list stuff on Posh that doesn't sell on eBay, so I don't have the photos actually on my phone, etc., and it's faster to just shift everything over on the desktop. I think it was mostly the sharing, questions, etc., that people were talking about it being faster on a desktop. ETA: We all agreed that there was a time when sharing WAS faster on a phone - when you take it into the bathroom and share during that slack time sitting on the pot lol. I do do a lot of sharing my closet when I'm in the car and use the phone for that. |

When I first started posh, maybe the first few weeks, in order to share on a computer you had to click the listing open to find the share button. It was awful. It’s much faster now.
My phone has a comfortable size screen and large enough text that using it for everything works well. I list on eBay just with my phone most the time too, but I save as a draft and then launch from safari desktop view on my phone or use the laptop. I print my labels from it too.
I use the laptop to read my invoice, run reports and promotions.

It's easier for me to list and share on the desktop computer but I "follow" faster on the phone.

Also on the phone you can follow the new closets and ambassadors quickly.
BTW, my phone is stuck on 'wholesale' and it doesn't matter what I do, I can't get it to stay on 'all' - I have to keep doing it manually. On my PC it's easy to shift.

I also list on my desktop since it is so much faster for me. I list on eBay first, and copy the description to the other sites.
Sharing is much faster on my cell, especially since I had to get a new cell.
Mercari requires that we do some stuff as far as sales, on our cells, not our desktop.

Mercari is just whack - I'm used to selling on different sites but that one is scrambled. I haven't yet found where my sales are - I have to go through personal messages and the like if I want to add tracking numbers, and if there are no messages, I still haven't found where else to do it, and their FAQs aren't very informative. They've added a couple of features to the desktop, though, but I wish it were better organized. I mostly just sell CDs I'm getting rid of there right now, and it's pretty good for stuff like that.

I agree! Since I mostly use my desktop, I see a message that I have a message and to use my app. Then I can't find it! And I might have some likes on items on my desktop or cell that aren't on both. Some also show up after an offer or message has expired. That being said, I do like the fact that I can offer FC shipping, which Posh REALLY should do! |

There's more than a little abuse with the FC shipping for Mercari, at least from what I've read on various forums - I don't think Posh is going to go there and instead encourage bundles. But I find it awkward in the summer, that's very true, shipping a little top for $7.11! It works out much better in fall/winter/spring and for spendy stuff that you want to box. I just never have enough on offer to bundle the summer stuff, it seems, and with tax AND that high shipping, I see why it doesn't really move much unless I take cheap offers.
I think I'll start cross listing it on Mercari to take advantage of that FC.

It is mostly the picture posting. |
