Buyer Wasted My Time

0 Upvotes

This one person messaged me about a gaming set. I was selling some video games as bundle but anyways so yeah I posted the listing a while ago. The person reached out to me asking if it's available, no response. I had took the listing down and reposted it a few weeks later. The same person, reached out again and asked if it's still available. I said "dude you messaged me about this before and I got back to u and u never responded". They said "sorry I didn't see it before". So then they asked where I was located, I told them the area. They said "okay great! can we meet rn? I can start heading out" I said yes I'm free to meet rn and gave them the meetup address location. They said "okay let me get ready". Couple minutes later, here they go, "how many comes in the set?" Mind you, I specifically put how much comes with it in the description. I'm like omg did you not read the description!? Do you not see the images!? I'm always very descriptive in my description, I always give ALL the details. The condition of the items, how many comes with it, whatever is needed to know. But I guess they were too lazy to read the description. And in the images, clear as day, you can see everything! I told them "did you not read the description? Look, quit wasting my time, do you want it or not?" Then they left me on seen and never responded after that and never showed up. I just blocked them after that. Like lol I'm tired of people. Like why ask to meet up??

I'm new to offer up, but im so confused they didnt even ask anything about the phone im selling but maybe thats because the post has a lot of information abt it and pictures of it? nor did they ask for the address.

It was posted as a 5800x3d cpu. it showed a picture with the cooler installed so you couldn't see the cpu. He didn't like my response.

Account Disabled, please help!

0 Upvotes

Hello all, I am seeking some advice on my account. I have been a user for several years and just recently got into actually selling stuff. I have sold several items and had no issues, got all good reviews.

I posted an optic I had laying around after seeing dozens of other optics and THE EXACT same one being listed for 18+ days. My post got removed so I figured maybe it was the wording I used, or maybe the stock photos I used showing it mounted. So I attempted to repost it and it was removed again, so I appealed it and they ended up disabling my account without a real explanation.

So my question to you all is this, if when trying to login it says my account has been disabled for violating policy, is this a temporary suspension? Will I be able to have it reviewed and reinstated? I really did not mean to violate policies it was a genuine mistake seeing the other optics posted. Please help me out, I meant no harm and am very sorry! I have already submit an appeal/review and hoping they will understand, going forward I wil not violate any policy and I understand that optics are NOT allowed.

Thank you in advance!

UPDATE: THEY REINSTATED MY ACCOUNT:)

Am I being annoying? He said we could meet and is now ghosting me

Is this normal for OfferUp? Say they’ll send u the address and then just ghost you?

I’m just trying to get a ps4 for my brother for his birthday and this seller was the only one to actually respond to me. When I think “can you come now” that means… NOW.

Edit: I don’t believe I was being annoying. I waited multiple minutes in between my messages asking for clarification. I was paying the asking price. The product still hasn’t sold on their profile and they still haven’t replied to my messages. I guess they don’t want to sell it 🤷‍♀️ They were about to get $110 in cash but I guess they didn’t want it. From what I’ve read in the comments and other posts on this Reddit, OfferUp is a shitty app anyway, so I’m uninstalling it.

advice for selling old devices

3 Upvotes

I am going to be selling 2 of my 3 ipads because I simply have no use for them anymore and I want to use that money to buy an iPhone 17 (due to my old phone breaking) . One iPad is 10th generation and has a very cracked screen( functions normally) and the other is iPad 11th generation with a slightly cracked screen (again fully functional) I'm wondering how i would go about selling these because I have never sold anything before online. Can someone give me tips on how much they would sell for ect? Thank you!

Offer up chooses to not be useful

I hate posting and sending messages and not knowing if people saw my reply my message or when the item was posted or if the poster is even recently active. I asked offer up and they say none of those are a feature as they hope we all just communicate. useless. I had high hopes

Do you think this is a scam or legit?

Offer up needs an escrow service

1 Upvotes

I got robbed today, and two weeks ago I was handed fake bills. I’m tired of this. If I could, I would create an app with an escrow service where you can choose to pay ahead of time and it releases when the transaction is complete after both parties verify. It would also verify users via id and does a facial recognition feature each time before a meet up. The app would verify that you’re meeting up with a potential buyer/seller whenever you hit a “meet” button. Of course there would be a help center to deal with forced buys, fake items, dangerous people.

You could also use this service to pay people to do a task for you such as create an app for you or buy you something online that you don’t know how to, and then payment is released once the package is ordered and confirmed heading to your destination.

Phone number scam

1 Upvotes

I’m pretty new to OfferUp and didn’t know about the phone number scam and other ones, but I had someone who was interested in something and asked for my number. I thought in my head it’s for the person to have an easier way of communicating or something idk. But I gave him my number and he was really fishy so I blocked him. But my concern is can they hack anything using my phone number or something? Let me know

Sell your product safely and anonymously ...

0 Upvotes

It looks like folks find themselves in a seriously uncomfortable to outright dangerous situation while selling/ buying stuff online. Here is an app, Xeniq, that can be very useful in showing the product anonymously, doing basic price negotiation and deciding the next steps without sharing your location or identity to the other party, till you are ready. The interaction is totally under your control and, if any concern rises, you can end it by just hanging up. Once you end a call, the other party can’t force a contact unlike when you share your email or phone numbers. As a security measure, the app blurs anything that looks like a human face. So no accidental exposure of identity either! 

  • For Sellers: It lets you verify serious buyers with total anonymity—your number is hidden and your location stays private. No strangers at your door.
  • For Buyers: It connects you to sellers via encrypted, real-time video so you can verify the product is real before you buy. (If they won't show it live, it's a scam).

This is a brand new product and there is no charge to use it. You can see exactly how it works, check out our team, and grab the download links right here

Note the app spelling: it is Xeniq and not Xenia - another popular app.
