Tips to Remember

When buying on OfferUp there are a few points to consider to stay safe and make sure your experience is handled professionally.  Anyone selling on the service should have a profile that you can review.  The profile should have past ratings, a photo, and TruYou.  If sellers don’t have this info present then find someone that has completed these steps.  

Every photo of an item should be an actual photo and not a stock photo that can be downloaded from the internet.  You need to see an authentic picture of what they’re selling so you can know what you’re buying.

When visiting www.offerupnow.com you can browse all of the items available within your area and when you find something you want to inquire about you can refer to the app on your phone.
