For buyers
How buying works.
- Browse or search. Filter by category, price, distance from your ZIP, or condition.
- Save favorites. Heart the ones you like. Get notified if the price drops.
- Message the seller. Ask questions, request more photos, arrange a pickup time.
- Pay securely. Click "Buy Now" → Stripe Checkout. Your card is charged but funds are held.
- Pick up & confirm. Inspect the item, then confirm pickup in the app. The seller gets paid out within 2 business days.
- 48-hour buyer protection. If something's seriously wrong with the item, report it within 48 hours and we'll mediate.
Free items
Listings in the Free category don't go through checkout — just message the seller and arrange pickup. Common courtesy: respond fast, show up on time, take what you said you'd take.
Pickup vs. shipping
For now, every listing is local pickup only. We're a hyperlocal marketplace — Gig Harbor, Fox Island, Key Peninsula, Purdy, Tacoma. In V2 we'll add in-app shipping with USPS labels for items that travel.
