This week on the Live YouTube show I sat down with David Lee, VP of Marketing for Mercari. Here's that conversation!
This week we'll discuss a couple of impending USPS price hikes, and who is going to be impacted by them, we'll look at a huge number of new upcoming features for Poshmark, and we've got an update on Mercari and WalMart as well. And at the end I'll share a huge what sold recap with a couple of very nice book sales!
