Poshmark on Tuesday launched a tie-up with Australia Post rival Sendle, a partnership the companies say will give Australian ‘Poshers’ access to affordable and sustainable parcel delivery for the first time. “Our mission from day one has been to bring the human experience that you see in everyday shopping into the online world, so to partner with Sendle and make everything super simple has been great,” Poshmark CEO Manish Chandra said in an interview. He added that Australians have an average of $500 worth of unworn clothes laying around, with his company primed to allow users to turn old jumpers or jeans into extra cash.

“I’m getting in the mix with the Aussie Poshmark community by launching my very own Poshmark closet in Australia where I will be donating all proceeds to a cause I feel strongly about – mental health.

eBay, Etsy, Mercari, OfferUp and Poshmark said they’ve formed The Coalition to Protect America’s Small Sellers, or PASS Coalition, to address what they see as unfair rules that could harm small sellers. “Requiring our sellers — many of whom are women casually selling items from their closets — to publicly disclose personally identifiable information is of great concern as doing so may compromise their privacy, security and ability to thrive,” said Coalition founding member Amber McCasland, vice president of communications at Poshmark. “We believe it is possible to achieve policy solutions that both consider and protect the interests of America’s small online sellers.”
