Hi @Liberty3010 welcome to the forums,,,,,,,,,i just wanted to add something to the information thats already been given,,,,,,,,,this is a nation wide forum,,,,,,and in some areas,,,,,,car dealers have been posting tons of cars,,taking over the feed,,,,,,,ive seen quite a few complaints about it,,,,,,,,,,,i personaly believe that a car dealer would do best on offerup by just listing a few cars at a time so as not to take over the feed,,,,,,,we all know where are local dealers are located,,,,,,we see their cars as we drive by,,,,,,,,,i think advertizing some on offerup would be great and help business,,,,,,,,,,but if you over do it,,,,,,,,i think it would also turn some potential buyers off to your car lot,,,,,,,,,,,some folks here are trying to sell their used cars so that they can go down to the local car lot with a down payment,,,,,,,to many cars on the feed discourages sellers and buyers on offerup/,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,again,,,,,,,welcome to the forums ...

Hi @laszlopanaflex ive only had about thirty sales in about four months,,,im pretty casual about offerup,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the majority of my meetups,,,,,,,,my prefered place to meet is only about two minutes from my home,,,,,,,,,but i have traveled as much as  about six miles for one meetup and three or four for a couple others,,,,,,and a mile for another ,,,,,,,,,i try to stick to where i want to meet,,,,,,,,,but the  times i traveled further it was women,,,cept for one,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the women were pretty insistent upon where they wanted to meet,,,,,im thinking its because they felt safer in those areas,,,,,,their home turf so to speak,,,,,,one actualy wanted me to come to her house,,,,but i got her to come about a mile away from that,,anyway,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i think i may have lost some of those four sales if i had not agreed to meet closer to where they wanted to meet,,,,,,,,,one was from out of town and i think they just wanted to meet where they knew ,,,not knowing the town very well.,,,,,,,,,but as a seller,,,,,,,and being as casual about it,,,,,,,,im only gonna adjust my meet up if i feel like it,,,,,,,,,,and there are some places,,,,i dont care what im selling,,,,,,,,,,,,im just not gonna meet,,,,,,,i will not meet down town, like police station or library ,,,,, i will not meet in any bank parking lot other than possibly my credit union  ,,i will not meet where i have to park and carry an item into a building,,,,,,,,i will not meet at mcdonalds again,,,,,i will not meet at walmart,,,,,,,,i dont know about other areas,,,,,,but here in my area ,,,,,i think most people excluding some women that just dont feel safe,,,,,,,,,are willing to travel to the sellers suggested meetup if indeed it is a public place they might go at times anyway,,,,,,,,,,,,,as a buyer i know mself and all my friends ,we just go where the seller suggests.,,,,,,,,,but it may differ in different areas,,,,,,,,,,,differnt micro cultures in different areas ...

Hi @Missnadia20 welcome to the forum,,,,,,,,,,i think with  selling a tv,,,,,,its all about priceing it right and meeting at a place it can be plugged in to show the buyer it works,,,,,,,,,,as far as the clothes,,,,,,,i just dont know,,,,,i see a lot of womens clothes selling on offerup,,,,,,,,,but it looks like its just certain items that are popular that move fast.and i think it depends on who you are,,,,,,,,,,i know some of the young women i know that sell on offerup actualy sell to people they know on facebook,,so they already have a lot of their own customer base.,,,,,,,,,,,anyway those are two items i have not sold much of,tv and  clothes ...

HI @laszlopanaflex how can you tell what people are paying at craigslist?,,,,,,,,,i only see what people are asking,,,,,,,,i have purchased stuff on craigs list ,but i sure didnt pay the asking price,,,,,,,and the things ive sold ,,,,,i did not get my asking price,,,,,,,,,,,only my partner and i and the buyer knows what we actualy have sold the items for.,,,,,and i can tell you that it was thousands less than our asking price.,,,,,,,,,,,,i also dont see how you can tell demand of items at craigslist either,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,on ebay we can see what items have sold for,,,,,,,,,,but that doesnt really tell us the going price for local sales of most items. ...

@50Tech I clearly explained that the only number i use on someones profile to come to any kind of conclusions or assumptions about a seller is based on the number by the stars,,,,,,,compaired to the number of sales and buys the review is based on,,,,,,,,,,since you did not give that number ,,,,,,,,,,,i told you that i could tell nothing about you.,,,,,,,,that being said,,,,,,,,,,i can kind of get some ideas about you from your response though,,,,but they would just be my opinions ...

@50Tech  if you read what i said again ,,,,,,,,,,,,i specificly told you that i could not answer your question ,,,that i could tell nothing about you from those numbers ,,,,,,,,,and then explained to you why i could not make any assumptions about you . ... View more

@Jason15 welcome to the forum,,,,,,,,,,,if your asking how t o ship a package you are selling on offerup,,,,,,,,i would you have two choices,,,,,,,,,road trip,,,,,,,,,or follow the offerup shipping instructions,,,,,,,which i believe is only done through the united states postal service,,,,,,after printing out a shipping label from offerup,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,if you are selling using the shipping feature on offerup,,,,,,,i would suggest  following thier instructions carefully ,,,,,,,,,,,,it seems like a lot have problems when they get off track and dont follow offerup instructions. ...

lol @zinda,,,,,,,,i wish there were that many tires to look though in my area ,,,,,,,,,im always looking at tires,,,,,,,,,i always know someone that needs tires,,,,,,,ive found some great deals for decent used tires for several friends here on offerup,,,,,,,,,,but here in my area ,,,have to act fast,,,,,,,,,,good deals sell pretty fast here,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,but i can see your frustration looking for that particular size,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i dont think i have even seen a 17 inch for sale in my area,,,,,,,,mostly 14, 15 , 16 , 20 and larger,,,,,,,,,,the majority of the tires in my area they dont put the size in the description,,,,,they tell what vehicle they were on ,,,,and the size is in the picture of the tires  , i think the majority of ones selling them here dont really know what the numbers even mean,,,,,,,,myself i dont see that as a problem,,,,,,,,,i can find the tires im looking for because the ones that just do a search over look a lot ,,,,,,,,but you are right it can be time consuming,,,,,,,,,,,,but when you can save up to a thousand dollars on a useable set of tires,,,,,,,,its  worth the time.,,,,,,,Ive found several sets of tires for people and they have given me a hundred dollars for my time doing it,,,,,,,,,,right now im looking for a size that two months ago there were several sets,,,,,and now i cant find any that particular size,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,I have also found that the ones that know more about the size and how to describe the condition of the tires ,,,,,,,want a lot more money ,,,they are the ones that know the true value. ...

@BrightMoonstone we dont have any designated meet up spots here,,,and our police station parking lot is pretty much for police only,,,,,not a good place to meet,,,,,,,some people here like to meet at mcdonalds,,,,,but thats a hard place to meet,,,parking lot is packed and  its on a corner,,,,,with all the driveways leading to the driveup,,, ive only met there once,,,,wont do it again,,,,,,,,i usually meet at a hardware store parking lot,,,,and i see lots of offerup people meet across the street from where i meet in another parking lot.,,,,,,after a few meetups ,,,,,,i went in and asked the manager of the hardware store for permission to meet in that parking lot,,,,,,,,,those employees are pretty watchful of things ,,they probably wondering what i was doing out there,,,,,,i love that store,,,,its  the one store in town where the employees will take off out of the store and chase a shop lifter down,,,,,,,,as a seller i try to pick t he meetup,,,,,,,but some buyers are pretty insistant on a different location,,,,,,,,,,,most times if they meet where i  say,,,,,,,,we dont even have to get out of our cars,,,,,,,just pull up along side and do business out our car windows unless the item is too big for that. ...

Yeah @RevivalGypsy I have not had any bad experiences at all selling or buying on the offerup app,,,,,,,,,i have met a few strange people ,,,,,,,well,,,,,,maybe weirdos would be a better description,,,,,,,,,both of which watched the place where we were to meet from another parking lot,,,,,,,,but i even had fun dealing with those two,,,,,,,,,,,i really dont believe in having bad experiences,,,,,,they do happen once in a while anyway though ...

lol @BrightMoonstone,,,,,,,,so i take it you didnt sell them anything?,,,,,,,,,,,,i had a buyer message me kinda like that on several items,,,,,she said she wanted me to bring them all and told me her address , said she would be there all day,,,,,,,,,,,,,i didnt do it,,,,,,,but couple weeks later she messaged me on another item and met at my meet up spot,,,,after t alking to her ,,,,,,,,i think she was serious about buying that stuff the first time,,,,,she had some booths at a flea market and was trying to get stuff to stock her new store at the beach.,,,,,,,,,,,,,lots of different types of buyers out there ...

@RevivalGypsythats a pretty broad description ,,,,,,to me ,,,,everything is home decor,,,,from the clam digging gear and outboard boat motor hanging on the wall in the stair well to my wood splitting axes hanging on the kitchen wall and my wood working tools in the living room,,,,,,my coffee table is a hundred year old tool box,,,,,,,,,,,,i also sell home decor,,,,,i was told if i get off  topic again i would be ban permanently,,,,,,,so im trying to give people an idea of what kind of seller i am,,,,,,,,,im a seller of home decor,,and garden art mostly,,,,,,garden art is anything that doesnt work inside ,,,,like crab pots and cray fish traps anchors etc. ...

@RevivalGypsywow only 30 percent of yours are rated,,,,,60 percent of mine are rated,,,,,,,and some of the ones that are not rated are because they are repeat customers,,,i dont think repeat customers can give you stars again,,,,,,at least thats what someone said.,,,,,,,,,,im not sure why some dont give a rating,,,,,,,,,there was a point where i thought it might be an offerup glitch,,,,one time i know i was rated right moments after a sale and the rating didnt show up till the next day. ...

lol @RevivalGypsy just so you know,,,,,,i absolutly adore you,,,,,,,,,,,anyway,,,,,,,so my assumptions are pretty close,,,,,,,,,,,out of a 100 sales,,,,,,,,,only around 30 actualy are sales that took place on the app,,,lol,,,,,,,,anyway,,,,,,i was just answering the persons question as best i could,,,,,,,and acording to my way of thinking,,,,,,,,,a few of my sales have kinda worked that way ,,,,,,,cept instead of coming to me,,,,,,,i just know what the person is looking for and go to them,,,,,,,,,but those dont go through the app at all,,,,,,,,,i just met the person on the app for the first sale.,,,,,,,anyway,,,,,,i just said what i would conclude from the numbers. ...

well @50Tech It tells me nothing about you as a seller,,,,,,,you left out the most important number ,,,,,,,,,,you say you have five stars based on 100plus sales,,,,and 37 purchases,,,,,,but you did not say what the number beside the stars is,,,,,,,,that number beside the stars is the only number that really gives us a clue about you as a seller,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,ive noticed some people may have five stars based on say 50 sales,,,,,,,,and lets say 7 purchases,,,,,,,,and the number beside their five stars is lets say 10,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,i think most sellers leave a rating,because they want a rating, makes them look better,,,,,so i would conclude that person in reality only sold 3 items,,,,,,and 47 times just archived items they marked sold to try to make their profile look better.,,,,,,,,,,,,so without that number by your stars,,,,,,,,,,,,,it tells me nothing about you,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ...
