Removed listing for no reason

They’ll remove listing for no reason just because it contains a descriptor word that seems dangerous. Maybe understand your policies before working here????

So buggy

Not sure how this app has good reviews. It barely works. Great idea but the app is terrible.

Hardly any views

Ads. don’t get views unless you pay for the upgrade. Bad platform

Inconsistent notifications lead to missed sales

Was a great app a few years ago, but as someone who occasionally lists items for sale I find that I frequently get notified for random things about the app but never when someone actually contacts me to purchase something I have listed, often leading to the buyer moving on by the time I get back to them. The notification folder always shows that I have unread notifications that are never there, adding to the confusion. Also , the ads that take over the entire screen after viewing 1 or two products, it’s pretty obnoxious, and the skip button is pretty much non-existent so in order to skip the ads you basically have to close out of the app and reopen it.

It’s sad because it used to be a really good app and they had a lot of potential to turn this into something great but for whatever reason they went in the opposite direction of that

Stop harassing me

Why do I get updates on sofas everyday? Don’t need 1. It’s very annoying. Please stop.

Ads

Too many pop up adds and unnecessary messages

Garbage

My account got suspended and my post got removed yet I see a lot of other post selling the exact same item I was trying to sell

Adds suck

The adds suck

Too many notifications and for nothing

This app is constantly dinging at me as if I have an offer or a sale and it’s nothing. There are no notifications I can’t delete searches. It’s so annoying.

Best app

Best app

An awesome app!

Whats not to like? A free way to sell my items without being charged a 13% seller fee like some of the other platforms out there…. Yes im talking about you Ebay!!!! So i dont mind the occasional 5 second ads. Especially when It saves me a boatload of 💵 when I sell my boat🚤 on offerup!

The best

Post, accept offer, sell!!! Nothing even close to this good for selling or buying!!!

So many ads it’s unusable

Every third item you click will present you with a full screen ad that has no close button. There are temu ads every 4th row. It’s unusable there’s almost more ads than content.

This app went downhill

This app used to be good but now it just went down hill. Lags so bad when you scroll and cant go 10 seconda without accidentally clicking on a hidden ad

Not good for listing auto parts or repair manuals

Every time I list an auto part or manual it automatically changes it to a vehicle that your listing a vehicle. I’m not listing a vehicle and it automatically changes the title to a vehicle. freaking ridiculous

Full of Bots and Scammers

Offerup does a horrible job of filtering new users to the point where you get several phishing attempts a day or malicious links sent to you. In the week that I’ve had this app I’ve gotten multiple scams a day trying to sell items and have only been contacted by ONE real person. Do yourself a favor and use facebook marketplace if you want to sell your stuff.

Great platform

I’ve bought and sold so many items on OfferUp over the years, it’s been a great experience. I’ve met some really cool people, found some amazing deals, and given a lot of good items a second life. Definitely one of my favorite local marketplaces!

Ads games

Annoying with all the pop ups

Little engagement

It’s frustrating to use the classifieds because when you want something and you try to message people, they don’t respond very rarely

Annoying

It keeps giving me annoying notifications that I don’t want and I deactivated all notifications
