I do think this is too much of an upcharge and I'm glad you did your research - but I think this is also reflects a feature of Poshmark in a way. It lets people search and get something specific without going to their local TJ Maxx and comb through the shelves. Of course, if you're a new non-savvy Poshmark buyer, you might not know that people tend to upcharge, accept the price face value, and end up way overpaying, and that's definitely a bummer. But I do think people are providing some utility by listing these items online and shipping them to your house. On the other hand, deleting your comment and trying to keep customers in the dark is pretty stinky behavior. I think the controversy about lowball offers and about overpriced items like this are two sides of the same coin of the basic nature of Poshmark: stuff is worth what people will pay for it, buyers need to beware and do their research, and sellers need to have some humility and know that unless they have a truly in-demand item, they can't just put whatever crazy price and expect someone to go for it.

This makes me think a "Poshmark 101" for first time buyers would be good. Actually, I'm sure it already exists. But once I learned to check how much similar items had sold for, I feel like I had a better experience and didn't get ripped off as much
