Tips for selling on Marketplace

If you'd like to attract more prospective buyers, get better offers and sell your items faster, bear the following best performs in mind when making your schedules for Marketplace.

Take your own photos

Evade using photos of items that you don't own or haven't taken yourself. Most buyers can know when an image has been rented and repurposed since another website. Size trust with potential buyers by taking your own authentic, unique and up-to-date photos.

It's best practice to leave nothing to the imagination. Show potential buyers what your item looks like up close, from far away, on all sides and from multiple angles. Depending on what you're selling, you may want to place it in front of a simple background or display it in an environment that potential buyers can relate to, such as a grill on a patio.

Write a full, authentic description

Even though not required, addition a description to your list will help you build trust with possible buyers, which can get you more offers and help you sell your item quicker. When writing account for your item, think about the explorations possible purchasers may have so you can forestall their oppositions and put their mind at ease.

Provide original buying documentation

Certificates, original packaging, receipts or manuals can help buyers feel confident when purchasing from you. This is especially the case when you're selling items that are highly regulated, such as baby toys and childcare equipment.

Make sure that the price is right when you make your listing, we'll let you know what similar items are listed for near you. You can also search Marketplace for similar items to compare. Offering fair and competitive pricing will make it easier to sell your item in less time

Be receptive and specialised

On Marketplace, buyers and sellers can rate each other on response time, payment speed and more. To be successful as a founder on Marketplace, be as open as possible with your buyers. Make sure that you're always on the same page about price, payment options, meeting location, delivery or any other details. Struggle to only receive positive marks and response from your clients because this can help you during future sales.
