Very surprised by the criticism of Gumtree, I like the site, bought about 5 items of seller's on there, never had a problem, also got a few jobs from there & i think a rental property once. I like it, as it's like Freeads (the paper) I used to buy, but it's free & there's pictures. Not sure all these negative posts are genuine.
It's clearly a scam. I've posted 4 adds for the same thing (selling my puppies) I've paid over $28 each and everytime I've tried posting my adds and the ads still arnt on the page no matter who I get to check or where I look. I've tried reaching customer survives and have gotten no reply. Very clearly a scam website. Do not try and sell here unless you've got deep pockets

It's funded by advertising, so it's free post items.
Gumtree is the first site for free classifieds ads in the UK. Buy and sell items, cars, properties, and find or offer jobs in your area.
