Hey everyone! Thanks for watching! Do you have tips for selling Vintage on Poshmark? Do you have any questions or video suggestions? Please comment down below!
These were some very solid beginner tips! I sell mostly vintage on Ebay and I have branched out to Poshmark. I'm very excited to see the vintage community beginning to explore other decades to wear versus the mid-century time frame. In the area that I live, it's rare to find name brand labels, but not rare to find vintage so, that's what I focus on! A few more easy to spot tips when looking for vintage.....if the tag has words like.......made in the USA, made in Hong Kong, Made in Japan, the union label. Metal zippers in dresses/skirts, metal side zippers in dresses. Shoulder pads can be both 1940's or 1980's/early 1990's. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you so much! Yeah, I have the same "problem" in my area. I don't find much designer or trendy labels so vintage is my go to! But I absolutely love vintage so I don't mind one bit!! Ohhh thank you for the extra tips! I found a dress this past week that seemed older than the 80s to me but has shoulder pads- I wonder if it could be 1940s?! I think it may have a metal zipper! I need to research it.
I love vintage items. I have lots of vintage items and awesome vintage clothes. I’ve sold on eBay for 25 years but considering selling my vintage items on other platforms. I researched Etsy but it gets all so overwhelming. I’m starting to research Poshmark so thinks for the information.
Awesome tips Chelsea! This is exactly what I needed to know. I can’t wait till the next time I go to the bins and put everything I learned from you to the test! Also, your Poshmark vintage sales are inspiring!
Thank you so much! I am in my 70s and have NOT kept up with the vintage trends. Still stuck in the 40s,50s and 60s when I am buying from estates and thrifting. Now I know the terms cottagecore and academia and grandma, and will hunt accordingly. My eyes are opened!
I absolutely LOVED this video Chelsea! You gave some many fabulous tips 😍❤️ your thumbnail is so eye catching too! The Pinterest tip is super helpful for figuring out the tends and I love the resources you provided to keep up with the vintage trends! Thank you 🤗🎉 maybe this could possibly be a series on your channel?! Like as you keep learning new stuff with vintage too can you share?! 🙏🥰 please
Thank you so much Brittani! I’m telling you - I probably wouldn’t have posted this video without you encouraging me to put myself out there. I’ll definitely keep sharing!
Ahhh! Chelsea this was so helpful! Especially for something like me who has no clue about Vintage! I am totally going to save this video and reference it to use those trend key words in my listings. Thank you for sharing all your vintage knowledge!
Great tips. I really enjoy that u share knowlegde but you dont act like a know it all. Such a wonderful relatable quality. One sell I had on poshmark was for 60$ a kids osh kosh bgosh overalls vintage with a cute floral print. Look whos talking vibes. Thanks for the video.
Hey Chelsea, I hope you are having a wonderful week ! Awesome information, and I agree 110% with all of it. By the way, I love the harp music you inserted when you drank your tea ! 😂lol awesome sauce ! 💗
Thank you! According to popular opinion on the internet- a garment that is 20 years old is considered to be considered vintage. So that would make clothes from 2001 Vintage this year! 😳
My #1 tip - watch Chelsea Sonshine!! You give SO many great vintage tips in you haul videos, what sold videos and of course this one was packed with great information! I hope you have a part 2 (and 3 and 4 and so on 😁) This is such valuable information in such a profitable area!! Thank you for creating this video!
Thank you so much! I think I will continue this series of sharing my vintage knowledge. I’m definitely not a pro but I’ve learned a thing or two I can share. 🤗
@@ChelseaSonshine That’s awesome to hear, I think a continuing vintage series from you would be a huge hit!! Oh gosh, you seem like a pro to me..the most knowledgeable about vintage of anyone I watch. But, it is very nice that you are humble. 😊
I needed this video cause I love vintage stuff and I’ve been alive since 1970 so I know vintage. I wore it all, lol But good to know what to pick up these days. Thanks Chelsea!
@@ChelseaSonshine I can definitely look at something at give you an approximate time that was in style. I wish I would of kept all my clothes but then I would of needed a storage facility lol I need one now with my clothes 😂
Thanks for including our sale in this video! Totally agree with looking on google and researching. Once we sold a feed sack dress that was worth $200 for only $50 because we didn't do enough research! :( I need to muster up the courage to model more of my items. So scary, though! -Camilla & Khang
You're welcome! That cat sweater is definitely something I would have picked up and sold so I had to share! Oh my goodness! yeah, definitely a lesson learned there! Modeling is a bit awkward at first but you'll get the hang of it! You can do it!
What do you do with unsold items? Do you reduce the price ? Maybe you offer it to someone :) I started to sell vintage and some of items I can't sell even for a very low price...
How do you prevent multiple sales of one item that's crosslisted? Can't that cause issues if you have to cancel a sale? Still learning...thanks for all the tips!
Good question! So, that is one of the downsides to cross- listing. You have to take down your cross-listed items immediately after they sell to avoid that happening. I normally leave stuff on Poshmark for about a week before it gets cross listed so if it's a super desirable item it normally sells there before it gets cross listed. Unfortunately, if you have a large volume of items cross listed you are bound to run into the issue of something selling on two platforms. That has happened to me a few times and I had to message the buyer and cancel the sale on the item that sold second and honor the first sale. I hope that answers your question! Have a lovely Easter!
One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. What you see as old and crappy others may see as desirable. If I have a lot of “old and crappy” desirable items at my thrift store that will actually sell I’ll pick them up!

I sold a vintage yellow knitted pullover sweater recently, made about $25, but it was kid's size.
YAY! I am glad you've been able to sell through some of those vintage kids clothes! Thanks for watching, Anne!
How old does a piece of clothing need to be to be considered vintage? Thanks for the great video! Hope you hit 1,000 soon. You are so close!😊
Thank you! According to popular opinion on the internet- a garment that is 20 years old is considered to be considered vintage. So that would make clothes from 2001 Vintage this year! 😳

Yes please make a vendoo beginners video!
Ok, I’ll put it on my list of videos to make and see how many others are interested in that video. Thank you for watching!

Great video, I just started listing on Depop, lots of likes but no sales yet.
Best of luck! It took me a little over a month to make a sale over there- hopefully you make sales faster than me!
What do you do with unsold items? Do you reduce the price ? Maybe you offer it to someone :) I started to sell vintage and some of items I can't sell even for a very low price...
I drop the price gradually over time. I also re-list my items every 30 days so it will be fresh in search results.
How do you prevent multiple sales of one item that's crosslisted? Can't that cause issues if you have to cancel a sale? Still learning...thanks for all the tips!
Good question! So, that is one of the downsides to cross- listing. You have to take down your cross-listed items immediately after they sell to avoid that happening.

I’ve noticed that anything old and crappy will be called vintage on Poshmark
One man’s junk is another man’s treasure. What you see as old and crappy others may see as desirable. If I have a lot of “old and crappy” desirable items at my thrift store that will actually sell I’ll pick them up!
