🔒 Buyer Safety Tips
- Meet in a public, well-lit location — coffee shop, shopping centre, train station
- Inspect the item thoroughly before paying
- Never send payment in advance to a stranger
- Bring a friend for high-value purchases
- Trust your instincts — if something feels wrong, don’t proceed
For Sellers
Create a Seller Account
Register for free and choose the Seller role. Add your city and country — buyers will use this to find local listings.
List Your Item
Click ‘+ Sell’ and fill in the details: title, category, condition, price, description, and up to 8 photos. Your listing goes live immediately.
Respond to Buyers
When a buyer messages you, you’ll see it in your dashboard inbox. Respond quickly — buyers often message multiple sellers at once.
Hand Over & Mark as Sold
Meet the buyer, receive your payment, and hand over the item. Then log into your dashboard and mark the listing as Sold so other buyers know it’s gone.
