Offer Up is racist really racist
October 29, 2020

Offer Up is racist really racist
I was trying to log into my Offer Up account but I couldn't for weeks so I emailed them and asked them what the issue was they asked me my name and is soon as they found out I was Latino they did not want anything to do with me I couldn't believe what I was here reading is it just me or does this happen to other people as well block me blocked my email blocked my phone number everything that had to do with my name. Yes I want the world to know the real truth about Offer Up they don't care about anything to do with you they just want you selling and if you're not selling your not gonna stay on there that's their philosophy the shame that we live in a world like this they pick a Dollar over a human. If anybody has any questions for me please feel free to contact me I have no problem showing the emails between OfferUp and myself

Burned
October 29, 2020

I bought a faucet from Pop's Shop through OfferUp. When it arrived it was nothing like what I was expecting. It was huge and not even close to fitting my bathroom sink. I tried to contact Pop's by email with no success and was unable to find a phone number. I tried to contact OfferUp for assistance. All I wanted from them was a phone number. I didn't have a phone number for them either so we exchanged emails for days. They insisted I had not acted in a timely manner and it was too late for them to do anything. This WAS NOT TRUE. I even provided my emails to them showing the dates and they were sent during the very short time allowed for refunds, but they kept saying I was too late. They refused to help resolve the problem and now I am stuck with a faucet I will never be able to use. This company obviously is shady at best and apparently so are the companies they choose to do business with. Run - don't walk - as fast as you can from these con artists.

Stay away from offer up
October 28, 2020

I hate that offer up partnered with Let Go. I loved let go. Offer up. Still have seller items that have been listed a year ago. Its the worst. Never had any issues with Let go. But offer up is built for scams. I haven't met a honest person yet. I never liked Offer up. But I said let me try it since it partnered up with Let go. I DO NOT LIKE OFFER UP

Letgo was better
October 27, 2020

OfferUp is not better. I had better results using Letgo and had better product filtering and regional searches. Facebook is a better marketplace.

DO NOT sell on offer up unless you are getting cash in hand. There is ZERO seller protection. I sold my camera to someone on a Friday and was told I had three business days to ship it. Business days are Monday - Friday meaning I had until Wednesday to ship it, which I did. OfferUp cancelled my payment and still let the camera ship because they said I only had 3 days, even though the email stated 3 business days which is different. OfferUp never sent me the money and when I contacted them they said I had to contact the buyer. When I contacted the buyer he was aggressive for no reason, confirmed he received the camera, and said he wasn't going to send me the money. I have no way now to get back my money or my camera. Complete scam!

Lots of Scam sellers
October 23, 2020

So, I would beware when looking for something that looks like too good a deal to be true. I was looking for a used car a little while back. I came across a listing for a great price. Guy said he was selling the car for his mom and gave "her" email. I contacted it and got the response "we are selling it because our only son died in a bike accident 4 months ago... the son i just talked to?! Found another listing with an only son who died 2 months earlier in a bike accident... clearly both scams.

Terrible! Took Letgo and went to trash!
October 22, 2020

There is nothing but scam artists when you put something up there. They took over let go and just run off her up into the ground. Can't get in contact with anybody. Merged but all the reviews I had lost. Very upsetting

When I tell you I have never seen an app as bad as this for buying and selling. Why they combined with letgo I couldn't tell you, it was much better as two seperate apps. I emailed them to ask a question since thats the only way to contact them, yep you heard that right NO PHONE NUMBER & NO LIVE CHAT. Insanity. Anyways they never answered my question but they did ban my account even though I did not post a single thing! Terrible way to sell things, if you want to sell items FB Marketplace and Mercari are the places to do it.

Worst Company EVER!
October 19, 2020

After 4 years and 168 5 star reviews they just deactivated my account. No one tells me why. No one answers my emails. It is sickening, as I am out of work and dependent on any income I can make. STAY AWAY. How do you kick someone for NO REASON? NEVER had an issue with a customer at all. SO frustrating

Worst app in history
October 14, 2020

95 percent of the people on the app are out to scam you for your information. I have reported several people. As, there are too many to report. But, they haven't responded or done as anything about it. The persons trying to scam you still have there post up.
I'm so disappointed as let go was a good app.

Dont get mad get even
October 12, 2020

I got my account and my computer banned because I reported the scammers TOO much. Free macbook shippng scam. Any idiot even an offer up moderator could see the silly scam meant to fool dumb buyers into sending $35 to the scammer via pay app outside of offer up.the only way you can get back on offer up is to get a new PC. Offer up has a way of putting a virus deep in your PC to block it from making a new account.
Cleaning the PC and changing IP no luck. Offer up buries some nasties deep in the PC. OK i get a new PC well I get many used PC make a bunch of accounts and create havoc on that site now. Getting even is more fun than being a good guy trying to help offer up...

Offer up needs to take responsibility for allowing fake ads to be generated selling new cars for $550.00 for example and so forth. If they are will to charge you for a service and profit from the website in the last few days there are more fake ads than real ones. WHY NOT FIGURE OUT OR PAY A HUMAN TO TAKE 1/2 A SECOND TO LOOK AT THE TITLE PAGE TO SEE IF IT MAKES SENSE. PEOPLE HAVE FIGURED OUT MORE THAN --------Judye688@(gmail) at com----- IN THE DISCRIPTION IS A SCAM WITH THE INTENTION TO TRY TO SWINDLE SOMEONE. VERY SIMPLE IF THEY PROFIT FROM THE WEBSITE THEY NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR WHAT THEY CAN BE. Please hold offer up responsible for not ever looking at the ads!

No response from seller
October 9, 2020

I found 1 to 2 years ago ad and nobody replies me. Even recent ad most of sellers never replies me. Offerup stuff never replies me too. Like I'm a ghost. Nobody can see me. Craigslist is the best choice.

Offerup Trust Safety Issues
October 6, 2020

Offerup is becoming like craigslist. People are rude, swear at you if they do not like your price, no shows, you can report them but offerup does not doing much about it like they did when they first started. Lots of scams and when you report them, they do not remove them, it takes them days and too late for all those taken. Sorry OfferUp, but you are going downhill and people are starting not to use you anymore.

So many scams!
October 4, 2020

Since the merger of Letgo which I used many times the amount of scams and false ads is F'N ridiculous. Don't have time to play around when shopping for items. I will no longer be a customer on this site gone to crap. Back to Craigslist and marketplace

Bad Business
October 2, 2020

I have been on Offer- Up for 3 yrs and No problem Till they merge with " LetGo and I start have problems with my account and I email them and they till me my account is deleted for inappropriate language, I ask them what language. The last conversation I had was the customer asked me if they purchased more than one could I possibly shipped them together and I say we would problems have go up to next shipped rate and anything over that I will pay difference, so I guess that the language they talked about... They never would explain... So I post some of my stuff on my friends page and they deleted his page also. Offer up is a piece of crap I will never used offer up again after all that $$$ I have made them. If you want good site go to " Mercari" best site out there..
