Potential to be the industry standard
I echo the same sentiments as in the other reviews about the genius of the built in PPG, real time values and everything we ever loved about Mercari, minus the fees, but there are a couple of developmental shortcomings.
The biggest one is that there’s no validation for account creation. I accidentally entered my email incorrectly and was not able to update that part of my personal information to fetch the shipping label for my sales.
The second would be the lack of a fail safe when listing with prices. I listed an item for sale for $0 and it was permitted to be published. Most selling apps have an algorithm that inform that the value just be greater than zero.
As far as applying to be entered into the Beta live program, there is really no place to list credentials that would influence the developers decision other than asking if you have sold on WhatNot before. Consider it is less than 11 months old and there are collectors who have been active in the community for the past 5+ years with various experiences, it would benefit the developers and app to include those with commiserate experience and verifiable credibility in the collecting community.
Other than that, I see this app being the model for online selling for Pops especially with some fine tuning and continued quality leadership in the way of its collector friendly offerings.

Great App - can be better
WhatNot has been a great app so far. I’ve made at least 5 or 6 purchases in between Nov. & Dec. 2020. It’s easy to navigate and I haven’t had issues with it except for some reason my iPhone gets hot while using it so I have to switch to the iPad for longer use. Also, it would be great if I could go back to my buying/purchase history and see who the seller was for an item I bought. I like this because when I receive an item I bought in the condition it was advertised, I would generally like to go back and purchase from that seller again due to a positive experience (if they had anything else listed that I was interested in of course). Otherwise, the app has been great. Hope it continues to grow and get better!

A great app
The bast app for finding and buying and adding your collection to keep track of all your pops and even make a friend or two love it
Honest review!
I got this app when I first got in the “funko game”. It is very new but for a new app it runs great. Positive review first!
1. Really easy to navigate, they have a great search engine and it’s so simple to find, buy, and submit sales to the app. I have not sold any on here yet (which will bring me to the negative review portion) but it’s easy to do
2. The pop are decadently priced. Some of the best priced pops I’ve seen have been on here, also there are ridiculously priced pops because they are the only listing.
3. PURCHASED pops I’ve had are in AMAZING condition. The way they are shipped is insanely good, and they’ve all had protectors and have been kept nice and snug in the box. Shipping prices aren’t bad either.
The bad:
My only complaint is that people don’t buy pops here too much. At least not mine. I see a lot of pops here for a long time that go no where. That being said, the places that do sell them are the auctions they do, which have some grails for sure, but they sells pops there for WAY more than they’re worth. I think people just get catch up in the hype of it.
Overall it’s a great app!
UPDATE 9/12
I’m giving this app a five star because of the great customer service and understanding on their end. Fast response, empathy to a situation, and clear message is key to any great company! Love it.

Great App for Pop collectors
Great way to find pops & easy to search the market for pops I’m looking for😊
Amazing!
I have been waiting for an app like this for a while now. Since I started my collection, I’d been using the Funko app. However, their app is extremely buggy. Too much nonsense. My collection value fluctuates too often, which I understand value change, but it’s often due to Pops having a certain value, then all of the sudden the app shows that there is no data to determine a trending value, which I can’t understand, especially with Pops that have been Vaulted. Anyway, this app has made the experience of being a Pop collector that much better. From the giveaways, to the prices, to the available Pops, to finding the value of Pops you have, this app does it all and does it well. My only real complaint is that when I scroll through the lists of Pops at the main screen, when I hit the back button, it goes all the way back to the beginning of the list. Lol please fix this if it’s not an isolated incident with me. But all jokes aside, there is nothing much to be upset about with this app. They make the buying process easy and are very professional and trustworthy people. Thank you guys for developing this app, you have a lifelong user/customer/whatever you want to call me. Will be buying again soon. Keep up the good work.

Thank you so much for your feedback! It made the team at Whatnot's day. I will make sure we fix the scroll bug ASAP. Also. Please email me logan@whatnot.com your shipping address. I'd love to send you something special in the mail for such great feedback. :-)
