Sellers are discussing the changes on Reddit, with some expressing frustration about the short notice of the change.

I’m annoyed that they keep giving short notice on changes, but that’s still a great shipping rate. Most of my sales are on eBay, and I charge exact rate shipping and buyers have no complaints (to me, at least).

The cost of shipping is really high, and so many people complain about PM shipping comparing it to big retailers that get massive discounts from the PO. If you were to walk into the PO to ship something to your grandma across the country via Priority Mail, the retail rate is very likely higher than $8.27

Others in the Poshmark subreddit had varying opinions about whether the new rate was a good deal or too high.

Ugh, here's where consumer psychology will hurt. It's only a 30 cent increase, but going over that $8 threshold gives you sticker shock.

Honestly at this point I’m already seeing my shopping patterns, I buy light items on other platforms eBay, mercari and depop and heavy items in posh. It’ll suck for light items for sure, why pay 8 bucks for a small top?

It is still a good deal if you are shipping heavier packages, but I tend to always cross list my lighter items like tops & tanks over to eBay so that I can price the shipping lower. Will see how this affects sales but I’m not shocked given how everything has gone up in price in general

People will complain every time this happens, but this is still a great deal to ship up to 5 pounds across the country. I’ve shipped so many packages to the west coast that would be so much more expensive if going based on size & weight.
