Write a compelling title
Use specific keywords buyers search for. Include brand, model, condition, and key features. Example: "Samsung Galaxy S21 128GB - Like New with Original Box"
Be honest about condition
Accurately describe wear, scratches, or defects. Honest sellers get better reviews and repeat buyers.
Include all relevant details
Mention age, usage, warranty status, original purchase date, and reason for selling. More information builds trust.
Photography Tips
Use natural lighting
Take photos during daylight near a window. Avoid harsh shadows and flash that can hide details.
Show multiple angles
Include front, back, sides, and close-ups of any unique features or wear. Buyers want to see everything.
Clean before photographing
A clean item looks more valuable. Remove personal items, dust, and clutter from the background.
Highlight key features
Take close-up shots of special features, accessories, or original packaging that add value.
Pricing Strategy
Research market prices
Check similar listings on Qwikyo and other platforms. Price competitively but leave room for negotiation.
Consider condition and age
New items: 70-80% of retail. Like new: 60-70%. Good condition: 40-60%. Adjust based on demand.
Price slightly above your target
Buyers expect to negotiate. Price 10-15% higher than your minimum to leave negotiation room.
Update price if not selling
If your listing gets views but no inquiries after a week, consider reducing the price by 5-10%.
Communication
Respond quickly
Answer buyer questions within a few hours. Fast responses show you're serious and professional.
Be friendly and professional
Use clear, polite language. Avoid slang or overly casual tone. Build trust through communication.
Provide additional information
Offer to share more photos, videos, or answer specific questions. Transparency builds confidence.
Set clear expectations
Specify pickup location, available times, payment methods, and any terms upfront to avoid confusion.
Building Trust
Complete your profile
Add a profile photo, verify your account, and write a brief bio. Verified profiles get more inquiries.
Respond to reviews
Thank buyers for positive reviews and address any concerns professionally. Show you care about reputation.
Offer safe payment options
Use Qwikyo's secure payment system or meet in public for cash transactions. Build buyer confidence.
Be transparent about history
Share why you're selling, original purchase details, and any issues. Honesty prevents disputes.
