Listing Items

For Sale Listings (“Sell”)

  • Clear Descriptions: Provide clear and detailed descriptions of the items you are selling. Include important details such as condition, size, colour, and any defects.
  • High-Quality Photos: Upload high-quality, well-lit photos that accurately represent the item. Avoid using stock images.
  • Fair Pricing: Set fair and realistic prices for your items. Consider researching similar items to determine appropriate pricing.
  • Swap Option: If you are open to swapping the item for something else, indicate this clearly in your listing.

Wanted Listings (“Buy”)

  • Specific Details: Clearly describe the item you are looking for, including any specific requirements or preferences.
  • Budget Indication: Indicate your budget or the price range you are willing to pay.
  • Swap Option: If you are willing to swap an item instead of purchasing, mention what you are offering in return.

Swapping Items

  • Mutual Agreement: Ensure both parties agree on the terms of the swap before proceeding. Clear communication is key.
  • Fair Value Exchange: Try to ensure that the items being swapped are of comparable value to avoid any disputes.
