Private messages without offers

We are testing private messages in select categories as an alternative to the current offer process. Private messages are characterized by the fact that you can write directly and privately with your seller and also exchange pictures without having to agree on a price first.

 

How can you now buy an item?

It's simple:

  1. Write the seller a direct private message with the price you are offering or ask questions about the item or service.
  2. If you need additional pictures, the seller can simply send them to you within the message thread.
  3. You can message back and forth as often as you like until you've agreed on all the terms and conditions for the deal.
  4. Once you have agreed, the seller can mark the listing as sold.
  5. Exchange payment details, and after payment is received, your seller will ship the item or complete the service.
  6. Finally, leave your reviews.
