OfferUp

This app SUCKS! They don't know how to run it well and soooo many b. S. offers and creepy or rude convos. When reporting inappropriate messages they do nothing..

Looking for 2 items. Actually drove to three locations only for the refrigerator NOT to be working in each case the 3rd time; seller never showed up at all.

I used to love this app and literally bought everything in my home when I moved from the app. But now I'm really sick and tired of the people I have been coming in contact with on OfferUp lately. I used to deal with people who respected each other's time, but now they make offers and don't respond to follow up, they cancel offers at the last minute because they didn't read the entire description, they expect the Seller to make themselves available to their schedule, or they just don't show up to meetings. It's just people looking for cheap stuff who aren't willing to pay decent prices.

I also hate that the app allows people to post the same item several times in order to get exposure. People do this to avoid paying to promote their item. And I am sick of all the people who appear to be selling items as an individual, when really they are a business. They do the same thing and post the same items multiple times, to the point that people assume I own a shop/business. At this point, the app is just a bunch of ads.

They are full of scammers and I reported them yet they were still not removed... All of the metal detector ads are scams. They almost ripped me off and offerup could care less.

Realized it was a scam and told him to f*** off. Reported it to Offer Up. Tried twice to review in Play Store without the "f" word. Both times my review was deleted.

Very seldom do sellers respond to your inquiries. Worst part when you make an offer or just accept the listed page price seller never accept or respond in order to finish the transaction.

It was nice looking at different item locals had to sell HOWEVER your sights are bombarded with furniture companies show the same dam item 100 of times it's annoying you have to make that stop or keep it under control I don't want to post or shop on offer up beacuse of this issue GET IT FIXED if a customer wants there crap they need to see it once not a 100 times. This is the biz all over fase book about your sight … there going to ruin which once was a nice way to shop

IT SUCKS THAT I HAD TO EVEN GIVE THIS APP 1 STAR BECAUSE I WOULD'VE GIVEN NEGATIVE IF GIVEN THE CHANCE! NOT ONLY WAS MY FATHER IN LAW SCAMMED OUT OF 800.00 BUT I HAVE REPORTED THE ITEM AND PERSON SELLING AND SCAMMING PEOPLE OUT OF THEIR MONEY AND THIS SITE HAS STILL DONE NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM, THEY WON'T TAKE THE OFFERS DOWN WHICH LEADS MORE PEOPLE TO GETTING SCAMMED! I AM SO FRUSTRATED AT THE LACK OF CUSTOMER SERVICE FROM THIS COMPANY ITS RIDICULOUS. IF YOU DON'T WANT TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PEOPLE USING YOUR APP, DELETE IT!

I have five listing on offer nothing they wanted me to pay so my stuff would sell faster after I refused I can't found one of my listing so yeah they're a bunch of slime balls

I sold an item on offerup valued $20. Brand new sealed in packaging. The buyer bought it for 8.00 and received it. Buyer messaged me telling me her dogs ate the package and ruined it. She requested a refund from offerup. Offerup gave her back her money and showed how the package was actually not ruined, it was still new in the package. I contacted offer up and got no response on how the buyer gets to keep the item and get the money back. OFFER UP HELPED THE BUYER STEAL FROM ME AND SCAMMED ME.

Work hard uploading Ad, Pics, Descr... Offerup then DELETES your ENTIRE account & ALL Listings without valid explanation, investigation or thoughtful work evaluating their own reasons and truth and justification as to WHY! EVERYTHING you tried to do in creating a good Ad is a -COMPLETE WASTE- with OfferUp. A Shxt Company.

I had a truck for sell I listed it and added the premium to help sell it. I have sold the truck not by offer up. But I removed it on June 10th and then 3 days later I see a charge for the premium and when I questioned it I am told curtly no refund will be issued. I have to cancel a membership for premium that I did not have. But basically they told me to f off. Great company now I know why they will not provide a phone number only email for customer service. BE VERY CAREFUL USING THIS COMPANY. This is what they wrote

This is Fran from OfferUp Customer Support.

Please be informed that selling your promoted item does not mean the subscription will be canceled too. Promote Plus is a monthly subscription, and you've already pre-paid for the rest of the current billing cycle, there will not be a refund issued. You'll have to cancel the subscription in order for the monthly payments to stop.

Their auto-robot blocks you because it considers it "harassment" if you want to let a person know that their not marking their item sold wasted 45 minutes of your time as you researched an item that actually wasn't available. (Yeah, in any other century of human existence, that was called "holding someone accountable for their actions, or the lack thereof." But today, it's considered morally wrong to gently remind someone of good respectful online selling behavior that they are violating. Not to mention that God forbid a person should actually hold someone else morally accountable for their actions...) But then after the Offerup auto-robot blocks that message, it blocks any and every other message you want to send to any seller. Then there is no contact info or email to contact their customer support to get your account unblocked. Totally not worth the hassle. Use a different selling platform, folks. We don't need another big brother enforcing the extreme dysfunctionality of political correctness. Leave that to Facebook and Twitter.

I was a user of Offerup.com. I sold couches. I used their "Promotion Plus" option. They were quick to take my money and slow to post my item as a promotion. Not that that made a difference.
In my opinion, the "Promotional Plus" is a scam. All you get for the 19.99 a month is the word "promoted" pasted across your item's picture. It does not give you preferred placement, you are not at the top of the page. I had 2 couches that used Promote Plus and I couldn't find them on the site.
When I tried to contact Offerup I had to go to the "help" page. Good luck with that!
I wish I had read the reviews of "Offerup" before I had posted my products with them.
If you are going to post with Offerup, DO NOT, I repeat, DO NOT use "Promotional Plus."
As I said, I believe it to be a scam, a way to get money out of the users of Offerup.

I have posted 2 pictures as proof of my claim. The first one is of the items I used "Promotional Plus" with. The second one is the first page of "Offerup" and as you can (or can't) see only one of my items has preferential placement. I can't find the other 2 items.

Offer up needs to take responsibility for allowing fake ads to be generated selling new cars for $550.00 for example and so forth. If they are will to charge you for a service and profit from the website in the last few days there are more fake ads than real ones. WHY NOT FIGURE OUT OR PAY A HUMAN TO TAKE 1/2 A SECOND TO LOOK AT THE TITLE PAGE TO SEE IF IT MAKES SENSE. PEOPLE HAVE FIGURED OUT MORE THAN --------Judye688@(gmail) at com----- IN THE DISCRIPTION IS A SCAM WITH THE INTENTION TO TRY TO SWINDLE SOMEONE. VERY SIMPLE IF THEY PROFIT FROM THE WEBSITE THEY NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT THEY CAN BE. Please hold offer up responsible for not ever looking at the ads!

I am a ITT specialist and will be filing a FTC complaint for the following deceptive practice of Offerup.com(05/11/20):

OfferUp.com deliberately executes the command gateway time-out error
Upon successful cancel of order. This executed protocol allows all function of OfferUp.com to be used except the view receipt/transaction ID.( Users are indeed able to view receipt before successful cancel)The intention to this protocol is to omit reciept/transaction page so buyer cannot receive funds by filing a true refund with customer service. This is a 2 part system in which time-out-error coincides with mandates of the required reciept/transaction Id to customer service in order to receive a true refund. Without the reciept/transaction ID field, customer service cannot be contacted via offerup.com. Status of order can state refunded but the implementation of the stated 2 part system designates a FTC deceptive claim. Protocol is based off of a local user id location for a convincing error.

Discovery of this was based on my recent purchase of a Ryzen 1400 series gpu.

I bought a phone (a Samsung Galaxy s20 plus) from a Johnny out of Conroe, Texas on OfferUp. Turns out the darn thing is locked to an organization. So during setup, right after asking your language, it comes to a screen that states "This device belongs to your organization" then to a screen prompting me to enter either a server or an e-mail address. The seller answered only two of my twelve messages post sale and OfferUp itself has answered ZERO of my four messages. Inow have a phone I cannot even use for internet because I cannot get thru the damn setup! I HATE OfferUp and will NEVER use them to buy or sell again. I am a seller as well and I would NEVER do this to a buyer as i could not in good conscience receive that money and even if I could morally do something like that, the platforms I use to sell would KICK ME OFF for this behavior. As should OfferUp this seller. The seller is Johnny out of Conroe, Texas. BEWARE of Johnny and OfferUp!

Filters are useless. You still see everything you don't want to see - store advertising, posts beyond the filters (price filters, locations, items not in your description). Worthless app!

At least 90% of Interest are spammers. Letgo was not near as bad as OfferUp. I'll probably discontinued using OfferUp letgo now. Why deal with it? Marketplace baby..

My wife sold our Nintendo Switch and 2x games to a guy in Florida.
He claimed it did not work. Funny it worked fine the day I put it into the box and shipped it to him.
Then he was supposed to ship the Nintendo switch and 2x games back to us. Instead he shipped us empty game cases and the Nintendo switch box with a bottle of tea and a bottle of water inside it.
He kept our items.
I called local police as well as Miami police.
Offerup has DONE NOTHING...

DO NOT US OFFERUP... NOTHING BUT LIARS AND SCAMMERS ON THERE.

I'M NOW OUT OVER $400...
