Something's Not Right?

Buying used and secondhand items comes with some unknowns, but you shouldn't have to worry about major issues. Here's how to handle problems.

Before Payment is Captured

For Delivery Orders

If you receive an item and notice a significant problem:

  • Take photos of the issue

  • Contact support immediately

  • Don't dispose of or alter the item

For Self-Arranged Pickup

This is your moment to inspect! Before tapping "Pay Seller":

  • Check the item thoroughly

  • Test functionality if applicable

  • Compare to listing photos

If something's wrong, don't release payment. Discuss with the seller or walk away.

After Payment is Captured

Once payment has gone through, your options depend on the situation:

Minor Issues

Small discrepancies from the listing (normal wear, minor scratches on used items) are generally expected. Consider:

  • Leaving appropriate feedback in your rating

  • Contacting the seller directly to discuss

Significant Misrepresentation

If the item is substantially different from what was described:

Contact us through support right away

Provide photos and explain the discrepancy

We'll review and mediate

Item Damaged in Transit

If your item arrived damaged due to delivery:

Take photos before moving or unpacking further

Contact support within 24 hours

We'll work with our delivery partner to resolve it
