1. Find your item
Browse nearby finds or search for what you need. Message the seller with questions or send a price offer. For a bundle, select the items you want; the total is shown before you buy.
2. Choose Pay cash or Pay online
Pay cash sends a request to the seller. We’ll email you when they confirm the item is available. You then arrange pickup and pay the seller when you collect. Any other direct payment methods they accept are shown on the item page.
Pay online opens secure card checkout. The total, including card processing, is shown before you continue. Your card is charged when the seller confirms the sale.
3. Arrange pickup in chat
Once the seller confirms, open your purchase to see the pickup details and agree a time in chat. Inspect the item when you arrive. For an online purchase, tap “I’ve received the item” after you collect it.
For sellers: confirm, chat and hand over
Tap Confirm sale when your item is ready for the buyer. A cash sale comes off the market immediately and stays in Active pickups for 48 hours while you arrange collection. If it falls through, choose Put back on sale from Listings or Pickups.
If you’re unavailable right now, decline this request and keep the listing online. If the item is no longer available, remove it from sale. Each option has a small question mark explaining what happens.
Set up your seller account
Add your bank details in Selling Hub → Settings before publishing priced items, so buyers can also choose to pay online. You can edit your listings at any time. Adding new photos sends the listing back for a quick review.
Free items
Request the item, wait for the owner to confirm, and arrange collection in chat. No payment is needed.
Leave a review
After collection, tell others about your experience with the seller. Your purchase and the review email will link you to the right place.
