How to choose a product and a seller
What to look at in a listing: photos, description, attributes, options, price, bargaining and the seller's profile.
In short
Compare several products: photos, description, attributes, condition, city and price. Check the seller's profile and their delivery methods. Then click «Buy» — you can place an order without signing up.
Compare several offers
Do not stop at the first result. Open several similar products and compare the price, condition, what is included, the city and the delivery terms — that is how you see the real price range.
Photos, description and attributes
- A product page may hold up to 8 photos — look through all of them, not just the cover.
- Read the description: materials and technique, what is included, defects, dimensions, care.
- Check the «Attributes» tab — it holds the parameters specific to that section.
- Look at the condition badge — «New» or «Used» — and at the city and the publication date.
Price, bargaining and options
- A «Negotiable» badge means the price can be agreed: at checkout you enter «Your price», and the seller either accepts it or sends a counter-offer.
- If the product has options (size, colour and so on), the price may differ per option.
- Pick the option you want on the product page before clicking «Buy».
Check the seller
Open the seller's profile: the «Products» and «Posts» tabs and the «Member since …» badge. The seller's delivery methods are shown on the product page itself. There are no reviews or ratings on the site, so judge by how complete the product description is and how filled-in the profile is. The seller's contacts become available once they confirm your order.
How to buy next
The «Buy» button adds the product to the «Cart», where you place the order — no sign-up needed. More detail in «How to buy and contact a seller».
