letgo

The Customer Service team is the most unresponsive team possible! I sent a message last Friday and their email says someone will respond in 24 hours. It has been 5 days! I would agree with what people are saying about the clientele that comes to purchase. I had someone express interest and then didn't respond to my messages for a whole week. When the buyer finally responded and I told her the item was already sold, she left a bogus review calling me shady. There are so many other selling apps out there and if you want to save some of your sanity, do not use letgo!

I've been using Letgo to sell and buy for months. I'm only left to assume that my location has something to do with why most of my experiences have been positive. Of course this brings out the crazies, the junkies, and the creeps. So does Craigslist eBay and other like minded platforms. Use common sense. If someone asks you if it's still available, that doesn't mean this persons about to buy your item. It means they're scrolling through postings and asked about it. That's it. I get 200+ inquiry only messages a week. I also sell items frequently. I've been jerked around too, but for the most part, using my common sense and being polite, I've sold over $800 worth of stuff I didn't want/need anymore. But, that being said, I live in a college town that is notorious for its low crime rate. All in all, don't expect too much from this, use common sense, and read user reviews.

I am fed up with bots and people who want to get something for nothing. This is not a good site to sell nice items. First and foremost, Letgo should remove those quick response buttons especially the one that says I'm interested. Usually the people are far away so it means they don't even read the ad. Craig's list is much more user friendly in making connections. There are no worthless click on buttons. People have to know how to write. There are the usual suspects on any selling site but you just have to be careful. Only take cash, bank check or money order. Meet at a public place.

My experience mirrored 95% of the negative responses on her, almost verbatim. They're all accurate reviews. I myself got 2 responses from users that were suspicious. One who asked if "the item" (a whole set of dishes) was in good condition - the condition was already listed in the very beginning of the description. The other one asked about a single figurine - "you want $20 for all?". I'm like, "all of what, there's only one item." Crickets. Clearly these are bots or scammers, there are no legit buyers. Don't waste your time, move on to something else.

Every post you will get trash calling you. I posted a hitch for a customer of mine that wanted it removed from her house, it was in really good condition so instead of destroying it I put it on letgo to see if someone could use it. Some hillbilly finally shows up and asks my employees to load it for him. I specified he would need help and he showed up with his crusty girlfriend. Same experience today I held some couches for some guy, he shows up 2 1/2 hours late and does not take the couches. Both items were free. It's not worth being nice just throw your used stuff out and let these pigs dig it out of the dump

There are ample reviews describing the numerous technical problems with this app. Top complaint is receiving pings around the clock, primarily from letgo and not buyers. As a seller I can say it's a complete waste of time. 95% of buyers use the auto reply, followed by "hit the wrong button". People have the audacity to request delivery on free items. Edit an ad and it will likely be flagged as a duplicate listing and deleted. Craigslist is far more efficient. If you use this app, only accept cash.

Months ago I was so unhappy with uncooperative, unwieldy, out of date Letgo, that I posted all that unhappiness in a review on Sitejabber. So I left Letgo, and started a sales life elsewhere... unhappily. Months later, Letgo got the message, and oh boy, it's now a breeze. Even using my old android tablet, no issues! Reprieve! (Let's hope all this lasts. Also, after several years selling on the web: I never, ever take a check. Cash only. I had one guy "buy" several hundred dollars worth of my stuff, later to tell me by phone he had no cash and he'll pick up this stuff and could I stake him until payday? Uh, no.) Never heard from him again. Just advice from a long time seller----no checks ever.
