Robbed
September 10, 2017

So furious! Used this app to sell my IPhone 6Plus and was robbed! Two teenage girls met with me instead of a man, that's the first red flag. They showed the money so I thought it was legit and they asked to see it. Grabbed it and ran off! Before I could do anything I saw they went back onto their FAKE profile and blocked me! Never using this app again, anyone can make up a fake profile and rob you, or even worse they could hurt you. Extremely dangerous!

Letgo waste of time!
January 12, 2017

After you get an initial inquiry for an item, and you respond it ends there always! NO ONE ever follows up. If you don't immediately respond that's the end of it. Who the heck is checking Letgo at 3 am?

I met a buyer named "mike finely" to sell my nintendo switch. He met me in the car and gave me four hundred dollars of fake money. After he drove away, I realized that the money is fake, I reported to letgo but they haven't done anything so far.

LetGo
July 5, 2019

I have to agree with everything people have said about LetGo. It's a trash app. Craigslist is so much better in every way! Too many people just want to jip you down. I've sold some high end products on Craigslist but everybody on LetGo wants to Jew you down.

Tries to post your ad as soon as you load a picture. It then goes through steps to keep adding information like price, description, etc. Have to keep deleting and readding pictures to try to get them in the right order. Very annoying app but I still use it but mostly for buying.

SCAM
May 8, 2018

Took me a week to realize there cant be so many "flakes" in such a short period of time and I'm talking about a FREE item. They reply to you,,,, a lot,,,, saying they are still interested, making appointments and never showing up etc...,,, most scary part is that I gave my address to these bots/scammers.The last one even texted me to say he was leaving, on his way to my house,,,,, never showed up. Surprise surprise.
Jokes on me I guess.
Worse worse worse app ever.
I did have 2 legit encourters. One to pic up a free item and the second I was the buyer. Still not worth it

You get a lot people that say they want something your selling, but don't follow through. I have had no luck selling on this site. I have had better luck on Craigslist and Nextdoor.com classifieds. Letgo is a waste of time and energy, for no sale follow through. Lots of scams run on their too watch for the cashier check scam!

This site is just a Kajiji wanna be with clientele that never follow up to actually purchase items from you rather they just hit the automated "is this item still available" button and don't go beyond that when you take the time to respond to there automated inquiry. When people actually do follow up they just low ball you so much that they assume you are so desperate to sell you would be will inform to"Letgo" for nothing. Also for whatever reason it seems no one is willing to pick up items and want a delivery service included in the price. Bottom line not worth the time or effort.

What a scam this Letgo is. I highly recommend you do not use it. Pay a few more bucks and go legit. Paid 700 to a seller named Junior for a fridge. Was delivered to home. Wasn't cooling. Sent him a message responded and then immediately blocked me. Delivery guys even had cards with email and phone number. Do not use Letgo.

I've sold on eBay and Craigslist and thought I'd give this a try. Bad idea. Rather, a colossal waste of time it's almost laughable how many times I've answered "yes, it's still available" and then... crickets. Nothing. I sold a total of TWO items on this site, out of probably 20 listed. And those two were a painstaking ordeal. Bye bye "let go."

Letgo is the ultimate app for emptying out the closest, garage, basement or anything else. It is quick local to you and you set the parameters, distance, willing to bargain, put or will deliver. Text an interest or offer and quickly get a reply. So many great things to say. Quick, easy, and free!

Ok
September 29, 2019

Been happy up to today. Started getting pop-ups to meet women, Ed ad clearly naked silhouette of a woman, they told me to take a screenshot which isnt working like they don't know what's on there? So I'll be deleting the app. It's been great up till today. What can I expect for a free app.

Don't bother
November 23, 2017

This has to be the worst site to look up anything. They mix more crap that you didn't ask for together, I tried to look for a boat. No categories listing boats and when you type it in search there's no telling what they will show you with boats mixed in, just gave up.

Easy to use but you get totally flaking people. They express interest and then you never hear from them again. Then people you don't know "favorite" you items and you can click on their profiles. Why? Who cares if they 'favorite' your item. You get asked to lower the price and then they flake out on your. All in all a big waste of your time and effort. They only way it could be worse is if you had to pay for it.

I gave it one star because I was able to sell 1 item on there.
I have posted several items on Letgo and get plenty of responses but 99% of them are at 1:00,2:00, or 3:00 in the morning. Its always the same thing (is it still for sale)
I always put the same postings on Craigs List and always seem to sell my items through them!

It used to be worse in some ways, now it's worse in other ways. It seems that even if you don't hit the button that says you're iterested, it goes off anyway and starts a chat when you were just looking. This is troublesome. The next MORE troubling thing is the notifications that automatically go on and stay on until you turn them off. Then you can't delete chats or inquiries that are way old and clutter up your chat screen.

Total Scam
October 4, 2016

I have tried Letgo several times. It's a TOTAL SCAM! Each time I post something for sale no matter what price, someone responds within 5 minutes saying they are interested. Each time they ask me dumb questions to further interaction but will never meet to buy item. EVER.
